2238.0. "Michael Dowdle " by AKOCOA::DHAMEL () Thu Jun 20 1991 14:36


        Driving home from work yesterday, listening to CD-96.9, Boston's
    Smooth Jazz, I heard a song on the radio that I had never heard
    before.  Within seconds, I was sure that some new Larry Carlton 
    material had just hit the streets.  A few minutes into the song, I
    was thinking about stopping at a local music store to see what
    Larry's new release was all about.

        The song ended and the DJ quickly said "Believe it or not, but
    thats *NOT* Larry Carlton".  It was a guy named Michael Dowble (not
    sure of the spelling but its pronounced "Dow-bel") from Los Angles
    with a tune called "La La Land".

        Has anyone ever heard of this guy before?  I'm heading out to buy
    the CD on my way home from work today.  I'll post a review after 
    hearing the rest.

    I listen to 'CDJ occasionally and caught one DJ talking about 
    "Dow-bel", and saying that it was sometimes pronounced "Double",
    who had a smooth sounding T40 hit called "The Captain Of Her Heart"...

I've heard the dude, some of his stuff is nice, (Big old Gibson Es335..)

But, I never heard the 'Carlton sounding tune'...

    How about changing the title of this topic to give the artist a little
    more credit?

    I would if someone would tell us how the guys name is correctly
    spelled.  We already have five Larry Carlton topics as it is...

    I caught 'CDJ talking about this guy again last night. Seems my .1
    was off the mark. They pronounced it "Dow-dil"...
