Felix Langford's Page

SSP Recordings featured Recording Artist~ Percussionist/Songwriter/Vocalist/Producer~Felix Langford,began his musical journey at the age of eleven,taking violin lessons.At that time,the violin was not considered to be a "cool" instrument,in his neighborhood and he was teased constantly.So, Felix turned his violin case around and carried it like it was a saxophone.Several years later,he fell in love with the art of percussion.... When,his older brother,nicknamed,"Dr.John", who was into Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk,Wes Montgomery,Grant Green,Dizzy,Ray Barretto,Mongo Santamaria and Candido Camero(just to name a few)taught him the basic beats.Felix was in heaven....Thanks,Doc!!!(Much Love!!)Meanwhile,The Motown Sound,Memphis Sound,Philly Sound, along with all the other old school singing groups and bands touched Felix,deeply,but,to this very day,"The Baddest Band in the Land","Earth,Wind & Fire" have remained at the top of his list.Big Thanks to "The Man Himself-" Mr.Maurice White...(Much Love!!!)* (C)2010 Feeldatcat Music(BMI)*
