Living On The River

Satan And Adam: Sterling "Mr. Satan" Magee (vocals, guitar, percussion); Adam Gussow (harmonica).Additional personnel: Ernie Colon (percussion); Yassmin Alers, Karmine Alers (background vocals).The Uptown Horns: Crispin Cioe (alto & baritone saxophone); Arno Hecht (tenor saxophone); Larry Etkin (trumpet); Bob Funk (trombone).Recorded at RaveOn, Croton, New York in December 1996. Originally released on Rave-On (331).Satan & Adam continue to mine the same two-man streetcorner busker groove that has served them so well on this, their third album. The music is kept raw and alive in pursuing this, but on several tracks their sound is fleshed out with guest appearances from Ernie Colon on percussion, the Uptown Horns and background singers appearing on their version of "Proud Mary." But despite the additions, their basic sound is every bit as unfettered as one would expect from these two blues anomalies. ~ Cub Koda
