Editorial Reviews
-- All Music Guide
"...So much music is narrowly programmed, it's nice to find someone with the vision to touch so many bases.
Product Description
Composer/guitarist Skip Heller is regularly compared favorably with Sun Ra, Frank Zappa, and John Zorn. His new release, "Homegoing" sends him back to his soul-jazz roots. But this isn't your dad's Jimmy Smith records. He puts an extremely personal and stylized stamp on the classic Hammond B3 organ combo, combining groove tunes, standards, originals, and even a swipe at Gustav Mahler with angular surprises, not the least of which is the appearance of Grammy-winner Dave Alvin on vocals for two cuts.
