COME AND GET IT!
It's here. It will be released in about three weeks…but
we just happen to have a few advance copies of the new
Sauce boss CD for
sale right now. |
So you can be the first one on your block to have one. This one is undoubtedly
the hottest yet.
"Come
and Get It" is a gumbo of rootsy styles celebrating
the diversity of what has become Americana. The Sauce
Boss stirs the Blues with a little twang of country,
add a pinch of Latin and World Beat rhythms and a splash
of rap, cook it all together with a treatment of fine
tunesmanship and a have a unique and flavorful platter.
The instrumental version of "Four-letter Word"
is beautiful. The world beat of "The Gumbo Song"
is an anthem to the cultures of the world community.
"Down in the Valley" is an Americana as it
gets. The Parrotheads, who have flocked to the Sauce
Boss shows since Jimmy Buffett wrote "I Will Play
for Gumbo" about him, will love "Locals",
"Sun", and "Four-letter Word". And
there's always the Blues on a Sauce Boss CD-"Going
Back to Florida", "Little Miss Heartbreak",
and "I Broke My Heart"-all feature the Sauce
Boss' signature slide guitar
IN SUPPORT OF THE NEW CD, HERE WE COME!
SAUCE
BOSS IS A THESPIAN!
That's right! The Sauce Boss has been reportedly been
spotted at a number of performing arts establishments
as of late. Paparazzi has photographed The Sauce Boss
in the company of known thespians. When asked about
this, the slide guitarist/chef only replied, "Some
of my best friends are thespians." Here is a photo
of the Sauce Boss hanging out at Thalian Hall in Wilmington,
N.C.

JUBILEE
KITCHEN WELCOMES THE SAUCE BOSS
One of the oldest soup kitchens in Pittsburgh opened
its doors to the Sauce Boss. Last month. Majic John
and Big Jim spooned out generous bowls of gumbo for
the clients of the Jubilee Kitchen. Also the Planet
Gumbo Board of Directors and volunteers are cooking
once a month at The Shelter in Tallahassee, FL. And
I'm not talking about opening a can of green beans either.
Nooooo! We are bringing some of the best cooks in the
area to join in on this aspect of our Planet Gumbo Program.
There are some great things on the Planet Gumbo horizon.
Now that we have our 501-c3 status we will soon be applying
for grants to bring healthy nourishment to those in
need. Body and soul. Come
join us!
