The music on this CD reissue is better than it should be. Cannonball Adderley had a fluke hit with "African Waltz" so a full album was recorded with the hope of coming up with additional hits. These 11 selections (which include "African Waltz") feature altoist Adderley backed by an 18-piece big band with arrangements provided by Ernie Wilkins and Bob Brookmeyer. The tunes clock in between two and five minutes and leave little room for much improvising by anyone other than Cannonball, his brother Nat on cornet, and pianist Wynton Kelly. There is some strong material on the set (including "West Coast Blues," "Stockholm Sweetnin'" and a remake of "This Here") but the results are not too substantial and this was not that big a seller; it is still a reasonably enjoyable effort. [Originally released in 1963, African Waltz was remastered on CD in 1993.] ~ Scott Yanow
& His Orchestra.
Recorded at Plaza Sound Studios, New York, New York on February 28, May 9 & 15, 1961. Originally released on Riverside (9377). Includes liner notes by Orrin Keepnews. African Waltz Review

The debut album from Fort Collins, Colorado band Tuku, "Where the Sun Lingers," is a celebration of all that makes pop rock great. That is, Tuku's semi-acoustic music is full of uplifting melodies, fresh harmonies, irresistible rhythms and personally expressive lyrics. But more than that, Tuku's sound is energetic and youthful, driven by a musical vision shared by all the members of the band. That's five musicians, all contributing to the writing, recording and performing of an exciting new music.Tuku's strong musical vision can be traced back to strong family ties. The group is anchored by twin brothers Ben and Andy Sheafor. Ben is Tuku's true front man, handling vocals, guitar as well as songwriting duties. Andy is the group's drummer, keeping the rhythms snappy while remaining sensitive to the rest of the music. Younger sister Megan Sheafor adds distinctive vocal harmonies and keyboards while the bottom is held down by bassist and close family friend Jeremy Justus, also a vocalist and songwriter. The newest member of the group is father Chris Sheafor, who has switched from bass to lead guitar, adding the finishing touches to Tuku's sound. Fort Collins music fans will recognize a similarity between Tuku's bright, melodic music and the sound of the band Bregstown, now defunct but once a popular live music attraction in northern Colorado. Chris played bass in Bregstown and his offspring often heard the band live, came to rehearsals and soaked up musical tips and style from the older musicians while working on their own musical unit. In fact several Bregstown songs, written by Matt Gale and Brian Gloster, are included on "Where the Sun Lingers." But then add new original songs by Ben, Jeremy and ...

This is the slightly-demented, slightly-sane world of Abel Ashes & The Runs, and Eat Plastic is an album that you'll either get or not. Fortunately, it's good (and original) enough to merit a number of listens.When I listened to it for the first time, I was not sure what I was getting myself into. There are hints of Frank Zappa in there, in the guitar playing and the deep low voice that Abel Ashes uses in some of the songs, along with the humor. You can take the humor with a grain of salt, for the ...
