Since 2014, master saxophonist Doug Webb has led the unofficial “house band” at the famous Los Angeles jazz club “The Baked Potato.” This sensational group includes Jamie Kime, a Grammy-winning guitarist, Grammy-nominated bassist Jimmy Earl (formerly of ‘The Tonight Show’), renowned keyboardist Mitchel Forman, and one of the world’s best rock drummers: Danny Carey of Tool! Over more than a decade of playing together, they’ve developed an almost telepathic chemistry and blend their unique instrumental skills into a powerful yet sophisticated sound reminiscent of the powerhouse bands of the ’70s: Jeff Beck, the Mahavishnu Orchestra, and Billy Cobham. Impex Records is now proud to present “Variations” by The Doug Webb Group – a compilation produced by Bob Donnelly featuring the best tracks from their concert repertoire, including compositions by Freddie Hubbard, Joe Zawinul, John Zeigler, and Eden Ahbez, recorded live in the studio! We invite you to experience this event – which West Coast fusion enthusiasts have been enjoying for years – right in your own home!
“Variations” by The Doug Webb Group is now available for the first time as an audiophile CD. The digitally recorded album tracks were remixed onto analog tape specifically for this release by Roy Hendrickson (Saturday Night in San Francisco) and mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. The three bonus tracks on the CD feature the original digital mixes.
