Kilowatt is a name of a recording by a jazz performer, Kazumi Watanabe. Jazz is a musical art form characterized by blue notes, syncopation, swing, call and response, polyrhythms, and improvisation. ... Kazumi Watanabe was born on October 14, 1953 in Tokyo, Japan. ...
This CD is a collection of their recordings from 1996 to 1999; the tracks just sat on the shelf and collected dust for almost ten years before these guys got around to issuing them to the public.
I own a few of their albums but they aren’t a band that is playing in my room all the time because of how heavy they are.
At the time this CD was recorded, Kid Kilowatt was about as far as any of these musicians could get from their “regular” styles of music without forming a boy band.
Though gone from the scene for over a decade, Kilowatt's brand of straight forward rock never went out of style, and renewed interest in the group prompted the release of HEADQUARTERS in '99.
These were the original demos intended for the self-titled album, but were scrapped once Domenic Troiano had come aboard.
They were known by some as 'The Other Guess Who', even though Kilowatt put out some of Canadian rock's purest music of the day, to the bones, no frill rock 'n roll, and were one of the country's most under-appreciated groups.
