Released nationwide on Tuesday, 11/14/06, Hammondbeat Records proudly presents the first long-playing record from the Nick Rossi Set. On The Outset features 7 original, instrumental compositions performed by Nick's working group. NRS has long been known as San Franciso's premier purveyors of hard groove-based soul-jazz. To say their CD has been long-awaited is a minor understatement. Recorded live, no overdubs, in the studio; this disc not only takes it musical cues from the the classic era of Blue Note and Prestige Records, but also its production values. Rarely has a contemporary recording captured such an authentic sound and vibe. Be sure to look for a limited edition LP released (high fidelity monaural for the audiophiles) from Flare Records.
