About

In the eyes of the rap generation, an older musician's hipness is often defined by how many times he or she has been sampled for beats and breaks. That means that keyboard wizard Bob James - whose records have been sampled a staggering 1435 times, according to the website whosampled.com - is a bonafide legend and cooler than cool. Although he's just celebrated his 81st birthday, Bob James is not about to close the piano lid for the last time and embrace retirement. Alongside the same trio (bassist Michael Palazzolo and drummer Billy Kilson that made 2018's critically-acclaimed Espresso album, Feel Like Making Live! captures James performing a career-spanning selection of material live in the studio. Feel Like Making LIVE! includes James's most well known hits like Angela, Maputo, Westchester Lady and Nautilus as well as an instrumental cover of Elton John's Rocket Man. This New Jazz Trio live-studio recording is released in a 180gram black double vinyl LP.

February 2022

Apart from being a fine player who famously abandoned his avant-garde roots to become a leading exponent of the mainstream, James is also among the surprisingly few pianists to have mastered the idiosyncrasies of the original electro-acoustic Fender Rhodes piano. This is very much in evidence on this live-in-thestudio trio collection that stirs a few standards and covers into a fine mixture of catalogue pieces.
