Album Notes

The Memphis Sessions are living legends of Ithaca, NY's vibrant music scene. Former members of Bernie Milton’s All Star Band: Steve Odum, Frank Henry Jr. and Tommy Bergeron continue the tradition. Joined by London McDaniel and Jeff Tripoli of Blue Sky Mission Club and Free Boody Institute, the band is feel good music at its funkiest!

The album was recorded at Cornell University’s Theta Delta Chi (otherwise known at Thumpty), by Grammy Award Winning Audio Engineer Randy Wine. The house has hosted legendary performers from Arthur Miller and Artie Shaw to the Rolling Stones to Blues Traveler and Widespread Panic. Listen and enjoy!

*The CD comes with a 16 page book with pictures, a history of the band, a history of Thumpty, and how this project came together.

REVIEWS

Thrilled to have come across this
author: Killian Quigley
Truly a compelling listen. This album smacks of authenticity. Covers don't sound like tautologies, original tracks hang in there with the classics. Can't say enough about how much I (and everyone I've played it for) have enjoyed it. The real deal for fans of organic, timeless r&b and soul.

Groovin at Thumpty
author: Don N
Solid party music from a place with a truly great musical history. Yes, it's a funky and old school sound recorded in a funky and old school frat house that has hosted great musical groups of all genres for over 70 years. This is the first recording effort from SAF and it's excellent. More fascinating history in the liner notes.
