Bangtower - Percy Jones

Only in the past few years did I discover what a monster Percy Jones is. His latest project, Bangtower, does not disappoint. "Casting Shadows" is their new CD and I just downloaded off of iTunes a few days ago. Very cool instrumental power trio format highlighted by Percy's unmistakable fretless tone. Highly recommended listening!

Thanks for the recommendation! Percy Jones is my favorite bass player of all time. I will definitely check it out.

Purchased - thanks for the heads up

A very Brand Xish effort- which is great!

Always a bump for Percy, one of the true innovators and good guy as well. I'll check it out.
