| | Roy D Mercer How Big 'A Boy Are Ya?, Vol. 7: Hangin' It Up CD Roy D Mercer Discography of CDs
(2 Customer Reviews)
Often, the release of a greatest-hits collection signals the end of a particular phase of an artist's career -- and sometimes the prime of that career itself. Such is not the case with the seventh Roy D. Mercer album, How Big'A Boy Are Ya?, Vol. 7. There's nothing radically different here; it's the same sort of goofy prank-call mayhem as before, and the level of Mercer's material is pretty much right where it's always been. For those who liked the first six, come n' get it. ~ Steve Huey

How Big 'A Boy Are Ya?, Vol. 7: Hangin' It Up music CDs
$8.85 As a trio, this edition of guitarist Grant Green's many ensembles has to rank with the best he had ever fronted. Recorded on April Fool's Day of 1961, the band and music are no joke, as bassist Ben Tucker and drummer Dave Bailey understand in the most innate sense how to support Green, lay back when needed, or strut their own stuff when called upon. Still emerging as an individualist, Green takes further steps ahead, without a pianist, saxophonist, or -- most importantly -- an organist. His willpower drives this music forward in a refined approach that definitely marks him as a distinctive, immediately recognizable player. It is also a session done in a period when Green was reeling in popular demand, as this remarkably is one of six recordings he cut for Blue Note as a leader in 1961, not to mention other projects as a sideman. To say his star was rising would be an understatement. ...
| | Rodney Crowell Ain't Living Long Like This CD (1977)
How Big 'A Boy Are Ya?, Vol. 7: Hangin' It Up songs
$10.89 Rodney Crowell's auspicious 1978 debut, Ain't Living Long Like This, not only showcases his songwriting prowess, but also his ability to deliver a song, whether it's one of his own or the work of another writer. Crowell possesses a sort of Everly Brothers, Nashville soul in his strong, emotive tenor, that's equally effective on the country-blues of Dallas Frazier's "Elvira," as it is on the rocking title cut or a country-folk ballad ...
| | Metropolitan Klezmer Surprising Finds CD
How Big 'A Boy Are Ya?, Vol. 7: Hangin' It Up album
$13.69 There are better-known American klezmer bands, but fame doesn't necessarily mean the same as quality, and Metropolitan Klezmer are up there with the very best musically. Their third release, Surprising Finds, is also their most daring, and most varied, where they not only delve deeper into their Yiddish roots, but also Jewish Socialism, once a major force in the U.S., but long since vanished. And so, alongside recordings of Deborah Karpel's grandfather, and old live tunes (including "Howie's Doyna & Hora" from 1994), there's a remarkable reworking on the Broadway standard "Pick a Pocket or Two," reworked as a Balkan brass gem, while "Soviet Yiddish Theater Suite" digs back into history to show how Yiddish culture flourished briefly in the Soviet Union. As much as involving listeners with some fabulous music (just hear the beautiful "Dreaming Wizard," for example), the band is also intent on making connections to the past -- all the way down to a very well-thought-out CD booklet. Come for the music and you'll stay for the history lesson -- and enjoy it just as much. ~ Chris Nickson
Metropolitan Klezmer's third CD is their most expressive disc yet, encompassing dynamic live and studio tracks, a wide range of approaches to traditionals (embracing Greek, Turkish, Rumanian, Russian, and Arabic roots of klezmer styles). ...
