Flaherty, Paul
Aria Nativa
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

2008 Original. Appears Unplayed. Side A Was Recorded Live At Issue Project Room, Brooklyn, NY On January 20, 2007. Side B Was Recorded Live At Community Theatre, Petersborough, New Hampshire On April 23, 2007. Flaherty Plays Solo Alto And Tenor Sax. “Aria Nativa Is More Than Paul Flaherty's Third Solo Saxophone Album; It Merges Rhapsodic Avant Garde Music, Patriotic Dream Verse, And Mortality Into A Frighteningly Pure Work Of Audio, Visual And Literary Sledge. Recorded During A Pair Of 2007 Performances, Its Four Pieces Capture Lifeblood In Stunning Detail From Foot Stomps To Gut Hollers And Crowd Roars As Flaherty's Free Power Blues Dips Into The Well Of Wretchedness Yet Raises With Fists Of Mirth. It's The Sorta Record That Splays Naked The Artist For All: Equal Parts Wise Ass And Universal Vision.” – Family Vineyard Records
