Stanton Moore: Groove Alchemy

Read "Groove Alchemy" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Groove Alchemy is not only the perfect title for Stanton Moore's album, it effectively sums up the unique means by which he makes music. The rhythm he conjures up morphs into melody then back again in such as remarkable natural fashion, it almost (but not quite) defies description. It's voodoo of some kind the ...
