Producer Ron Skinner of the Detroit Bop Quintet Plugs Neon Jazz

The goal of TQM Recording's August 18th 2014 United Sound Systems session was simple, to answer one very hard question. Is it possible to recreate a classic Jazz recording in modern times. The recording session in question was one that took place on December 21st 1947 at Detroit's United Sound Systems recording Studio. The session was produced by legendary producer Teddy Reig and engineered either by Jimmy Siracuse or his son Joe Siracuse. The musicians on the session were all astonishing musicians and together they were breaking new ground with every performance and recording. Charlie Parker was the session leader and played Alto Saxophone, a young Miles Davis was on Trumpet and the legendary Max Roach was on Drums. On Piano and Bass were two musicians that may not be as famous as the for mentioned musicians but were every bit as good. Duke Jordan was on Piano and Tommy Potter on Bass. Neon Jazz is a radio program airing since 2011. Hosted by Joe Dimino and Engineered by John Christopher in Kansas City, Missouri giving listeners a journey into one of America's finest inventions.
