A new conception in soulin’ and groove time was born when legendary
drummer Mike Clark, co-leader of the Headhunters, formerly (Herbie
Hancock and the Headhunters) took one step and beyond by bringing in
guitarist/composer/arranger, Steve Homan and jazz, funk organist/
arranger, Delbert Bump for session work on Tony Adamo’s new CD. Their
recording session solidified the soul cookin’ groove that is now the
foundation for Adamo’s new funk music. Bump and Homan have previously
recorded with Mike Clark on his CARNIVAL OF SOUL CD. Clark has also
brought in high voltage funksters with some heavy souln’ in the form
of Rob Dixon and Gary Mielke, the co-producers of the Headhunters new
PLATINUM CD. Super percussionist and long time Headhunter band member,
Bill Summers, laid down his percussion tracks at an earlier recording
session with Clark, Dixon and Gary Mielke. Mike Clark will oversee
Adamo’s recording session starting on October 19, 2011 at the Static
Shack Recording, Indianapolis, IN.
