In the year of its 20th anniversary, the legendary early Indie Classical masterwork, ‘Orange Slice’ is finally released. With this work, Dramm’s status as a “American iconoclast” was secured. A full hour of otherworldly Hammond Organ playing, feedbacking pianos, monolitic bass guitars, psychedelic drumming along with the heavenly trumpets in the final movement have left audiences breathless for two decades. 13 years in the making, this is a recording is not to missed.
