Sound Project is an album by jazz guitarist Joe Pass and accordionist Tommy Gumina that was released in 1987.
Pass and Gumina met in the 1960s when Gumina built Pass a small, portable amp. Although Gumina started his career as a musician, he entered the electronics business and made instruments. He recorded Sound Project with one of his inventions, a polycorus, which is similar to an accordion. He and Pass started the record label Polytone Records after Pablo Records, Pass's label, was sold.

Thomas Herman Ridgley was an American R&B singer, pianist, songwriter and bandleader in New Orleans, Louisiana. In a musical career lasting half a century Ridgley was a stalwart of the New Orleans rhythm and blues scene. Although he never had a national hit, unlike several of his contemporaries, he made numerous, popular recordings that sold mainly in New Orleans and Louisiana beginning in 1949 with a final release in 1995. His voice was variously described as similar to Roy Brown and Bull Moose Jackson and thus able to adapt to a variety of styles: blues, jump blues, rhythm and blues and soul. In the late 1950s, he became bandleader of The Untouchables with whom he held residencies at important night venues often backing visiting artists. His recording career consisted of over forty singles and three albums. Most of his recordings have been anthologised on compilations in vinyl and CDs.
