Piedmont Piano Company 1728 San Pablo Avenue Oakland 5:30 PM Showtime. If told about a band that consisted of only keyboards and drums, one wouldn’t be faulted for thinking, “Where’s the rest of the group?” But listening to Scott Amendola vs Wil Blades, the funky California-based duo of Wil Blades on Hammond organ and clavinet and Scott Amendola behind the kitand all fears will be assuaged. Blades’s cutting solos and deep bass lines make for a thick stew of soulful harmony and daring improvisation. And Amendola’s beats are simply unstoppable, simultaneously pushing the duo to heights unknown and sending the listener into a joyful sonic trance.

Video Pick Of The Week

Jeff Beck was one of the most innovative and original guitar players of the rock ‘n’ roll era. Never content to rest on his laurels, he is always experimenting with new techniques, new musical styles and new collaborators. The former Yardbirds musician jumped between genres while collaborating with singers including Les Paul, Macy Gray, Buddy Guy,
Wynonna Judd, Cyndi Lauper and Luciano Pavarotti. In celebration of Beck’s 82nd birthday on Wednesday the 24th I would like to highly the 2018 documentary Jeff Beck: Still On The Run follows his career from early days learning guitar solos with his friend Jimmy Page, through the Yardbirds,
the Jeff Beck Group and his multifaceted solo albums. Beck’s fascination with both guitar music and hot rods is explored through interviews at home and in his workshop and his musical journey is illustrated through contributions from many of his fellow musicians and colleagues including Eric Clapton,
David Gilmour, Jan Hammer, Jimmy Page, Joe Perry, Slash, Rod Stewart,
Ronnie Wood and more
