“[A] visionary jazz and world-music saxophonist/composer” — Hartford Courant “Rogers is an inventive and charismatic saxist, and as a bandleader he’s savvy enough to make optimal use of what he’s got.” — Global Rhythm MagazineLINER NOTES (by David Rogers)I wrote the music for this album with the thought of painting in mind. I wanted to create a series of pieces that would fit together in a broad sense, but with each having a distinct character. A an artist might choose different pigments for each picture in a series, I wrote each piece in adistinct palette of instrumental colors, with its own kind of rhythmic feel, and a different formal structure. In writing them I drew inspiration from a wide variety of musical sources from the voluminous American jazz tradition and from other musics around the world. It was a great joy to work with such a creative, broadminded, and flexible group of musicians who leapt right into each piece, bringing a wealth of ideas and musicality to every one.OBOO KETUA NYOM (“Little Stone Song”) was originally a sax solo inspired by and based loosely on gyil (an African xylophone) music of the Dagara and Lobi peoples, and was written for and dedicated to Mark Stone’s then-unborn son Kwame. In this arrangement I added two gyile (taking full advantage of Mark and Gerald) and Gerald’s ever adaptable drumset. The form is a palindrome (ABCBA) with slow, fast, and medium tempo themes; the gyil solo in the fast theme is Mark’s. The end of the slow theme is an African-style melodic syllabization of the title where the sax plays/says like a talking drum: “Oboo ketua, oboo ketua, oboo ketua nyom, oboo ketua nyom.”DON’T DROP THAT COFFIN! The title of the trio tune came from an image I had of a New Orleans funeral where the joyous march music gets so exciting and the crowd starts dancing so vigorously that someone has to shout out a warning to the pallbearers. “The engineer said it reminded him of circus music; listen for the “saber dance” theme he said he heard in the middle of my solo.MOBIUS TRIP is based on a motif I found one summer in Oakland, California, ...
| | Cannonball Adderley Soul Zodiac CD (2008) (Import)
Concert In The Park music CDs
$7.45
The Nat Adderley Sextet's Soul Zodiac could easily have been buried in a time capsule as an example to future generations of the ideas that were in the air in late 60s/ early 70s popular culture. A concept album based on the signs of the Zodiac, a hip narration, psychedelic guitars and some fatback drums. Paradoxically it was this level of vogueishness, that for many years consigned it to the parts of the jazz catalogue that time had forgotten. However in the early 90s the acid jazz scene discovered its funk filled grooves and hip hop producers used those very grooves as the building blocks of their own records, turning the album into a sought after collector's item. The Adderley brothers were born in Florida, Julian, more famously known as 'Cannonball' in 1928 and Nat in 1931. Cannon became a renowned alto saxophonist, and one of the leading bandleaders of his day. Signing in 1955 to Mercury Records, but making himself a national name when he joined the Miles Davis Sextet in 1957 being present on the recording of Davis' most enduring album Kind Of Blue. After leaving Davis he signed to the New York independent jazz label Riverside where he began to score a series of jazz hits that would make his group one of the most successful jazz bands of the time. A key component of that group was his brother Nat who had played at various times with his brother in the 50s, as well as with J J Johnson and Lionel Hampton. After rejoining Cannon he would stay in his bands until his brother's death in 1975. As well as his cornet playing being the front-line instrumental foil to Cannon he was also responsible for some of the most important tunes in the group's song-book including 'Work Song', 'Jive Samba' and 'Tengo Tango'. The Cannonball Adderley Quintet's success, and problems at Riverside saw them signed in 1964 to Capitol Records and working alongside staff A&R man and producer David Axelrod. Axelrod and Cannon got on well, and they settled into an extended period of work that would see the group reach a new level of success. That success reached its peak - commercially at least - with 1967's LP Live At The Club. This album contained the Joe Zawinul composition 'Mercy Mercy Mercy', which when edited ...
