Steve Jordan & The Jordan Brothers (It) Ain't No Big Thing (CD)

(ID Records) 18 tracks, digipack with 12 page booklet

“(It) Ain't No Big Thing” by the Jordan Brothers on ID Records, featuring 18 tracks, 16 of them unreleased.  Packed with sweet rock, R&B and Latin songs from 1965 recorded in Phoenix by Chuck Hauke at Hauke Labs. These are the first recordings of Esteban “Steve” Jordan and his brother Boni before they moved to Texas in 1967, where he would focus more on his accordion and Tejano music for the rest of his career.  He mastered more than 30 instruments and played all styles of music, including jazz, rock, salsa, blues, mambo, country, Tejano and zydeco.  Jordan thought outside the box and was ahead of his contemporaries, using phase shifters, echoplexes and fuzz boxes.  He pushed his diatonic accordion to its limits and released more than 20 albums and 30 45rpm records in his 45-year career as a musician, starting right here in Phoenix, with the exciting music on this CD - featuring high-quality sound, lots of pictures and a 12-page booklet compiled by John P. Dixon.  More Arizona music history for you to enjoy and appreciate. La Bamba!
