This CD, originally released in 1981, has been recently re-issued by popular demand. The CD was Eight to the Bar's first, recorded at a live gig at a major venue in New England, Toad's Place in New Haven, CT. You can hear the excitement as the packed house cheers the band on. Many of the band's classic original tunes, such as the searing rock saxophone jam, "Play It On Your Saxophone" came from this record. The band's highest energy record ever.
Drawing its musical influences from American roots music -- swing, boogie-woogie, and Motown, Eight to the Bar is known for its outstanding instrumentalists and sophisticated musical and vocal arrangements, highlighted by female vocals. With the support of independently produced CDs and videos, Eight to the Bar has cultivated a large, enthusiastic following that has put them in clubs from Maine to Miami as well as Europe and the Caribbean. Their rigorous touring schedule has included opening spots for Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Manhattan Transfer, Robert Cray, the late Roy Orbison and Ray Charles, several European tours, and most recently, a tour of the Republic of Georgia at the invitation of the U.S. Embassy located there.
