Sea Level/Long Walk on a Short Pier

Sea Level/Long Walk on a Short Pier

Having put out Sea Levelâ€™s second and third albums, weâ€™re now polishing off their Capricorn album catalog by releasing the first and last albums on a single CD! Sea Level had begun as a Allman Brothers spinoff, with three members of the mid-â€˜70s ABB (keyboardist Chuck Leavell, percussionist Jai Johanny â€œJaimoeâ€ Johanson and bassist Lamar Williams) leading their proto-jam band mixture of jazz, blues, and rock on the debut record, which was highlighted by such instrumentals as â€œThe Rain in Spainâ€ and â€œTidal Waveâ€ as well as the Leavell organ showcase â€œGrand Larceny.â€ And though the band had changed quite a bit between the first and fourth recordâ€”Jaimoe and drummer George Weaver had left, and guitarist Davis Causey, saxophonist/keyboardist Randall Bramblett, and drummer Joe English had joinedâ€”the band maintained its superb â€œlevelâ€ of musicianship, even though Long Walk on a Short Pier didnâ€™t come out in the U.S. for 20 years due to contractual problems with Capricorn. Both albums have been out of print on CD for over a decade and command huge prices on the reselllersâ€™ market; they appear here with notes by Scott Schinder featuring exclusive quotes from Chuck Leavell himself!
