Recorded live at The Lighthouse, Hermosa Beach, California on September 13, 1953. Originally released on Contemporary (7649). Includes liner notes by Ed Michel.
Digitally remastered by Phil De Lancie (1991, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
This classic live date was recorded at the now-famous Lighthouse, that legendary West Coast hangout, on the same day as a live session by Miles Davis. Here Chet Baker leads the spirited all-stars, including regulars like Howard Rumsey, Shelly Manne, Bud Shank, Russ Freeman, and Jimmy Giuffre, in a rousing set. Drummer Max Roach, long known for his bebop contributions back East, splits the drum duties with Manne.
As to be expected with this bunch, the energy is kept high and the solos are free-flowing. Baker is in fine form, although in such a large group he is not given as much of the spotlight as he would be on a quartet date. Still, the crowd is kept on its toes with swinging renditions of tunes like "I'll Remember April," the opening "Loaded" and even a raucous version of "Winter Wonderland." For fans of West Coast jazz, this is a special treat.

Witch Doctor music CDs
$11.39 This is an Enhanced audio CD which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
On his second album for the Basin Street label, 22-year-old trumpeter Irvin Mayfield remains strongly influenced by his mentor Wynton Marsalis. The extent of the influence seems deliberately underscored by a video clip, included on this enhanced CD, that shows Marsalis giving Mayfield track-by-track feedback on his new work. (Mayfield listens receptively, at times squirming in his seat.) The compositions ripple with modern, hard-hitting, post-bop swing and a variety of subtle Latin influences -- very much the kind of music Marsalis was making in the mid- to late '80s. While Mayfield's music benefits to some extent from its association with the best aspects of Marsalis's writing style, on the whole ...

Witch Doctor CD music
$48.15 Japanese version includes three extra tracks ("Song For The Unloved", "Rush Over Me", and "Movin' On") plus a bonus DVD (NTSC format) with music clips and backstage band footage.
The Backstreet Boys were the primary sensation of the late-1990s boy-band craze, and their fourth record bears the title NEVER GONE. It is an almost defiant proclamation for a group that held five years of silence since its last release, but it is also a truly fitting title. While the musical winds had inevitably changed since 2000's BLACK & BLUE, there's always room for winsome, well-crafted pop and this fivesome still know how to effortlessly wrap their charming harmonies around a sweet pop concoction.
NEVER GONE opens on a majestic note with the subtly complex "Incomplete," an aching ballad with an imperial piano-and-strings backing that falls somewhere between Five For Fighting and Nickelback. From there the record presents compositions as attractive as the pastoral settings on the album's cover, which the Backstreet Boys instill with the same soft-burning passion for which they've become known. Whether on the driving pop of "Just Want You To Know," the throwback soul of "Weird World," the modern funk of "Poster Girl," or the earnest and reflective folk of "Safest Place to Hide," the Backstreet Boys have a keen ear for melody and the comfortable ease of singers who have played off each other for a decade. NEVER GONE continues the legacy of the best boy band around.
It's been nearly five years since the Backstreet Boys have released a new album, but as the all-too-literal title of 2005's Never Gone makes clear, they don't want you to call their fourth LP a comeback -- in their mind, they've been here for years. That's not strictly true, since all five members have disappeared from the charts, if not the tabloid headlines, since their 2000 flop, Black & Blue. While fellow teen pop icons like Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera had successful transitions into adulthood, while Jessica Simpson turned reality TV star and Mandy Moore turned genuine actress (for pity's sake, we will ignore Britney Spears' horrifying descent into white trash abyss), Kevin Richardson, Howie Dorough, and Brian Littrell all faded away as A.J. McLean suffered ...
