O’s Notes: Los Angeles bassist Dewayne Pate has played with a myriad of artists across many genres in pop, blues and jazz. He’s invited a large roster of musicians to perform On The Up Side including Robben Ford (g), Ray Obiedo (g) and Dennis Chambers (d). 5 of the 9 selections are Pate originals. Highlights are “Iceman” with Tony Lindsay on the mic over a funky backdrop, “Ellen” featuring guitarist Stef Burns, “Oliver’s Twist” featuring Norbert Stachel (sax), “Blues Ala Monmouth”, and the syncopated title track.
