- Description: The Lost Singles of McVouty 1958-1974 - Slim Gaillard - Sometimes I go knocking on the doors of my heroes. Usually it's a family member or friend who helps open that door. This was the case in January of 2014 when my longtime friend, producer/journalist, Kevin Goins connected me with Jan Gaye the daughter of Slim Gaillard. Slim was a one-of-a-kind. He played guitar, piano (sometimes with palms up), sang and even had his own funny language called 'Vout'. His music has brought me a lot of joy since my early 20's. Slim's music is happy and represents the good things in this life. As I write in my liner notes, InchSlim's music should be prescribed by doctors to individuals who are depressed.Inch With the support of Slim's family I'm happy to announce the first newly-heard music of Slim Gaillard in decades, a pill we can all swallow! - This new collection is culled from lost 45 records that were collected from online auctions by my co-producer, Tom Samuels. Very little is known about these tracks, recorded for such obscure labels as SGM Music, Sky Strip & Xavier Records. My guess is these were self-produced singles Slim was cutting, sending out to A&R agents looking for a 'deal' or to radio stations for a hit. Thanks to Michael Graves at Osiris Mastering Studios in Atlanta we were able to restore a great deal of the sound, gingerly, cleaning up the audio as best as possible without removing the high-ends. - This deluxe 4-panel, digi-package contains a 32-page booklet with rare photographs plus essays by yours truly, author and historian Ricky Riccardi, Gaillard archivist and co-producer Tom Samuels, saxophonist/composer and friend of Slim, John Altman, and lastly Slim's son and daughter, Mark Gaillard and Jan Gaye. Many thanks to Len Fico and the estate of Slim Gaillard for making this project possible. And thanks to all of you for all your support. Album Tracks 1. B
