The Duke Levine Band
“…on Beneath the Blue, Levineʼs twangy tones—produced by vintage guitars played straight into an amp—wash over the listener like warm Gulf waves on a summer afternoon, rather than wowing them with overtly flashy licks. In addition to seven of his own gorgeous instrumentals, Levine brings intelligent and enchanting twists to classics such as Ellington/Tizolʼs “Caravan,” the Beatlesʼ “Flying,” and Bacharach/Davidʼs “The Blob.” A delight to listen to, the disc also serves as a master class in understatement and tonal mastery.”
