Howard McCullough Plays




Now an offering of Howard McCullough's, and his style is a little quieter than his suit.

It's a sound similar to Ena Baga's - a little bit of rhythm here and there, and a gentle pulsation as Howard tickles the plastic ivories. A point of interest would be Howard's rendition of 'The Stripper' which would certainly get me hot under the collar, if it didn't conjour up the image of Ena Baga taking her clothes off.

This sounds like I've gone overboard on the dynamic compression, but it was on the record - for that 'breathy vibe' I suppose..

I know this one has been around before, but I felt compelled to get my own vinyl copy as I was listening to 'Ballin' the Jack' so much. The rip I had could have been better, so now here is the better rip!

I had never heard 'Ballin' the Jack' before, so I went looking for an old version and found this from the 1940s by Kid Ory which is very enjoyable!

Apologies for the 6 week gap - if being abducted by aliens wasn't enough, I've had to hunt around for a special cushion as well!
