Digitally remastered by Phil De Lancie (1991, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
This CD reissue (one of three King Pleasure sets that together contain all of his recordings) has an LP-length session from 1960 (originally put out by HiFi Jazz) that is dominated by spirited remakes of past glories. The vocalese singer revisits such songs as "Moody's Mood for Love," "Don't Get Scared," and "Parker's Mood" with the assistance of tenors Teddy Edwards and Harold Land and pianist Gerald Wiggins. Worth picking up, although the other two King Pleasure releases are generally on a higher and more creative level. ~ Scott Yanow

OK then, here's the history lesson JD and the Longfellows are a five-piece formed in SE London, England in 2006 and are partly Canadian-Irish-Scottish-English and even Welsh.They have a style alternatively described as Psychoskiffle, Renegade Folk, Urban Country, Thigh Slappin’ Western, SlapHeadBilly, Landlubber Surf and Howlin' Hootenanny. In November 2006, they released their first 14-track album of original songs: 'Confessions' with all the songs written by JD Longfellow. This received extensive celtic-folk-alt-country radio play, particularly in the USA and was selected as one of the Top 10 of 2006 by Radio Rebel Gael in New York and just outside the Top 10 by Shite’n’Onions Radio in Boston. 'Happy Hour Again' (February 2008) is their second album. It features 12 brand new tracks, some of which were written by Karma Clayfellow and Clare (Portman) Shortfellow. Unlike Confessions (which perhaps gives the impression of being written through a vast alcoholic haze while dancing on the moon), Happy Hour Again delves deeper into the darker side of the human condition, touching on the tragedy and raw emotions involved in topics ...

$57.09 | | Elijah Emanuel Tres Sangres CD (2009)
Golden Days album
$16.45
The anticipated third album by bilingual Panamanian roots reggae artist Elijah Emanuel. In the tradition of classic Jamaican reggae initial tracks were recorded live to 2" analog tape. 17 original tracks backed with organic instrumentation performed by Elijah's nine piece band. Featuring a powerful horn section, real flute, clavinet, fender rhodes, hammond organ, Cuban tres, cello, and more. Devoid of drum machines, sequencing, and modern studio trickery this is a roots reggae album not to be missed. Check out the audio samples.PRESS RELEASE: NEW ALBUM FROM ELIJAH EMANUEL - "TRES SANGRES" September 29, 2008 BILINGUAL REGGAE ARTIST, ELIJAH EMANUEL, RELEASES THIRD ALBUM San Diego, CA 2008: ELIJAH EMANUEL, PANAMANIAN SINGER/SONGWRITER, OFFERS A MULTI-CULTURAL PERSPECTIVE ON ROOTS REGGAE WITH HIS NEW ENGLISH/SPANISH ALBUM, ENTITLED "TRES SANGRES" (Three Bloods). The site for this CD release is The Belly-Up Tavern in Solana Beach, CA on Friday Oct. 10, 2008, 9:00 pm. When he began performing in San Diego in 1997, Elijah Emanuel was arguably the first artist to write and sing reggae songs in Spanish and English. His first album, "La Lucha Continua" (The Struggle Continues), released in 2001, launched the bilingual approach to reggae and gained him a loyal following in California and Mexico, particularly in Mexico City and Tijuana. The second, 2004's "Persistence of Vison" (Vision Persistente), continued this new tradition in roots reggae music and established him as a unique act in the USA, both on the west coast and in New York. "Tres Sangres" seeks to extend the significance of bi-lingualism in reggae music. Not satisfied to merely cross the language barrier, Elijah Emanuel explores the multi-cultural experience of Latinos: that of mixed blood. The songs illuminate the joys and sorrows of living the mixed heritage of African, Indigenous and European ancestry. Musical arrangements reflect this cultural mix: adding ...
