The Dirty Dozen - Ears to the Wall
Year: 1996
Label: Mammoth
Total playing: 47:17
Bitrate: 320 kbps
It's amazing what you can find in the 99 rack in some record stores. On this release, the Dirty Dozen drops "Brass Band" from
their name and adds a keyboardist and a trap set drummer, instead of the New Orleans brass band style separate bass drummer
and snare drummer. Traditionalists may bitch and moan about the band's changes; nevertheless, Ears To the Wall sho' nuff be
some fonky stuff. It's neat to hear the tuba (technically, it's a sousaphone) play the bass parts along with the trap set drummer.
This mostly instrumental old-school-meets-new-school release should be satisfying to anyone who is looking for something a
little different. ~ Tim Griggs, AMG
