Stevie Redstone, “Shots Fired”
The latest release from Stevie’s Redstone’s new, retro-minded album fuses Motown’s funky stomp with the Rolling Stone’s greasy, horn-laden rock. Recorded straight to tape during a live session in Los Angeles, “Shots Fired” is as explosive as its title suggests, with lush, Phil Spector-worthy production and an improvisatory outro that shines its light not upon studio gloss, but upon the top-tier musicianship that fill’s the song’s core.
