Floyd Cramer
Floyd Cramer & The Keyboard Kick Band
Album CA 1977 on RCA label
Electronic, Jazz and R&B/Soul (Jazz-Rock, Synth-pop, Easy Listening)
Recorded at RCA's Nashville Sound Studio, Nashville, Tennessee and American Recording Studio, Nashville, Tennessee . Manufactured and distributed in Canada by RCA Limited. 101 Duncan Mill Road, Don Mills, Ontario. (Notes from the gatefold) The Keyboard Kick Band represents anew venture for Floyd Cramer. Floyd is the Keyboard Kick Band and through the process of overdubbing in a 24-track studio plays Eight Keyboard instruments: Piano, Organ, two Electric Pianos, Clavinet and Three Synthesizer including the Arp Pro Soloist, Arp Omni and Arp 2600. The synthesizers that Floyd plays sound like raindrops on one song, an orchestra of strings on another and lay down a funky riff that makes you want to dance on another. Synthesizers have become popular recently because of their ability to simulate a large number of sounds - from horns to strings to crackling disco riffs to gurgling lead lines. These electronic keyboards can produce a variety of sounds and effects add yet another dimension to the already legendary talents of the king of the keyboards, Floy Cramer.
