Guitarist Chuck Loeb Joins Heads Up

  I  

Guitarist Chuck Loeb has signed to Heads Up and will release his next disc, Presence on the label on Jan. 23, 2007. The recording features Loeb’s original compositions, as well as a new interpretation of Steely Dan’s “Rikki Don’t Lose That Number.”

“A lot of music gets created in a laboratory,” Loeb said. “We all have computers and we do things long distance, but it never ceases to amaze me how, as soon as you put the live musicians into the equation, it’s their presence that brings the thing to life.”

    “She said, ‘A lot of people are going to try and stop you,’” Sheryl Bailey recalls of the advice she received from jazz guitarist Emily Remler (1957–’90). “‘They’re going to say you slept with somebody, you’re a dyke, you’re this and that and the other. Don’t listen to them, and just keep playing.’”
