These days, he surfaces every so often with a new solo album. He has explored a number of styles and rhythms, but <em>Quiet Money <\/em>comes close to the classic sound of Roomful Of Blues.<\/p>\n<p>He brings along many of his usual cast of characters. Former bandmate, producer, and brilliant guitarist Duke Robillard\u00a0is on board as are former\u00a0buddies from Roomful Of Blues, plus an assortment of musicians from Robillard\u2019s current band.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to being a superb trumpet and cornet player, Basile\u2019s ability as a songwriter is what pushes his music beyond the norm. He is a poet who regales the listener with thoughtful and incisive stories set to melodic blues music.<\/p>\n<p>His voice has also acquired a nice patina as he has stepped forward from sideman to front man. His veteran band knows when to step back and allow him to solo, and when Robillard adds his guitar, the music gains some added depth.<\/p>\n<p>When you get to a certain age, your thoughts and approach to life begin to change. \u201cNot Today\u201d and \u201cWho\u2019s Gonna Close My Eyes\u201d explore the passage of time. \u201cPut Some Salt On It\u201d is a humorous take of classic blues with hidden meanings lurking in the lyrics that show off his lighter side. <\/p>\n<p>Basile has travelled in several directions musically but now has returned to his roots. <em>Quiet Money <\/em>is an excellent dollop of modern-day blues from a sometimes-unappreciated master.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":59,"featured_media":33315,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"tags":[],"artist":[10086],"rating":[5615],"class_list":["post-45126","review","type-review","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","artist-al-basile","rating-rating-b"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review\/45126","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/review"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/59"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=45126"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review\/45126\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33315"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=45126"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=45126"},{"taxonomy":"artist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist?post=45126"},{"taxonomy":"rating","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rating?post=45126"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
