O’s Notes: Grammy winning guitarist, composer, producer Tom Hemby is on his A-game for Dealin’ It. He leads a solid rhythm section with drummer Keith Carlock, bassist Adam Nitti, and keyboardist Michael Whitaker. Saxophonist Mark Doutht adds sax melodies on a funky, jazz-fusion album that hits the mark! Nitti sets the pace on “Six Ways From Sunday and there’s a riveting drum solo on “Afro Funk” balanced by the relaxed ballad “Oakwood Road”.
