And From Another Life...In the 80's, Santo wrote, produced and directed a series of albums which were released on The Source Unltd label. Below you'll find a synopsis of each & what the critics had to say.


"The best thing to livin' on the street/You can't get no further down" How can I not like a record such as this? I wish more folk singers were this honest about their lives.- Julian Cope Presents Unsung Reviews Santo Review 12/2009	THE AMERICAN WAY (vinyl) Recorded in an East Village storefront with special guests Phillip Johnston on tenor sax, Dave Sewelson on baritone sax and blues singer Pat Cisarano, this album deals with coming of age and what is truly passed down from father to son. "Narrative, wry always clear eyed. Latin tinged melodies & rhythms"--Aquarian Magazine MUSIC FROM THE STREET (vinyl)* Out of the storefront and into the 24 track studio, this album celebrates street life with percussion, keyboards & guitar. Special guest Rey Scott on flute. "It's honey with a touch of vinegar, pungently flavored music that may be off the beaten track in its approach, but not itsappeal." --Ross Mohn / Sound Choice SELF RESPECT/ A NIGHT IN THE LIFE (CD) Recorded and mixed in the midst of the Tompkins Square riot, the title says it all... "Self Respect, filled street savy sounds"--Billboard *"...he nudges you to see the passing scene his way. The Bronx-born singer is abetted by Billy Bang's violin... and he plays up the drama lurking around these tunes." -R.J. Smith..Village Voice	THE SOURCE UNLTD COPY SHOP EAST VILLAGE PH. 212.473.7833 e-mail: santo@sourceunltd.com Back to HOME page	Have a Listen A Night In The Life.mp3 Featuring Billy Bang on violin Loisaida.mp3 all instruments by Santo The Street.mp3 all instruments by Santo Games For Fools.mp3 all instruments by Santo Trick or Treat.mp3 Dave Sewelson, Bari Sax Philip Johnston, Alto Sax Pat Cisarano, Vocals Help Us To Survive.mp3 all instruments by Santo

Black February is a documentary, directed by Vipal Monga, about New York-based jazz legend Lawrence D. "Butch" Morris. It chronicles an unprecedented series of concerts performed in NYC by the composer & conductor. Butch put on the series in February 2005 to celebrate 20 years of Conduction, his revolutionary technique for leading live improvisations. More than a simple portrait of those 28 days or a biography of an enigmatic and complex legend of the avant-garde, Black February is a film about how music is made and what it means. On February 2005 @ NuBlu, Santo took part with other musicians & played percussion under the Conduction of Mr. Morris.
