The first of several trio dates by Bill Charlap for the Dutch label Criss Cross finds the pianist concentrating on a wide range of compositions by fellow jazz musicians, accompanied by bassist Scott Colley and drummer Dennis Mackrel. Charlap's driving hard bop interpretation of Ornette Coleman's blues "Turnaround" is a gem, as are his lyrical arrangements of Benny Carter's gorgeous ballad "Souvenir" and Phil Woods' memorable tribute "Goodbye Mr. Evans." His playful side comes across in his obtuse approaches to Charlie Parker's "Confirmation" and Jim Hall's "Waltz New" (which is a reworking of the chord changes to "Someday My Prince Will Come"). The only standard of the session is an extended treatment of "Alone Together," which begins with a haunting solo by the leader before evolving into an intense, introspective workout by the trio. This very enjoyable date is highly recommended. ~ Ken Dryden

When Wayman Tisdale was ten-years-old, he lay his hands for the first time on the two items which would eventually determine the dual nature of his life: a basketball and a six string guitar. Sports fans know where the first one led -- to a successful all-star career in the NBA where the 6'9" Tisdale totaled 5,000 rebounds and played for the Indiana Pacers, Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Suns. Smooth jazz enthusiasts who know nothing of his hoop life made his MoJazz albums Power Forward and In the Zone -- recorded during his off-seasons in 1995 and 1996 -- Top Ten hits on the Billboard chart. While those titles gave the impression of an athlete dabbling in a side career, his Atlantic debut Decisions -- recorded as he hung up his Air Jordans after 12 years on the court -- gets down to more serious business. Playing the bass isn't just a hobby anymore. If the guest list at Tisdale's coming out party is any indication, earning the respect of his peers can be crossed off the worry list. Keyboardist Brian Culbertson, for one, proves a melodic soulmate, matching his high ivory tones note for note with Tisdale's plucky, lower register melody ...

I spent alot of time on my own, swimming in small lakes, camping out in the woods. I travelled all over B.C. enjoying the incredible scenery and the vast amount of stars in the night sky. My favourite place to visit was Nelson and the Kootenay area. It was 1974. I was too young to be a 'hippie'; the whole thing had passed me by. I had watched it from the sidelines. Yet, I felt an affinity with the music, the idea of brotherly love, social equality for all, and the vision of world peace. I could have lived my 'gypsy' life forever, but I decided I would go back to the city and do my little part to 'help the world'. In the following ten years I went to several music schools and universities, studying as much as I could. I lived in Kitsilano in Vancouver and became involved in the folk music scene. I was writing lots of music and doing lots of performing. During this time I met a man who would change my life: John Alfred Young. He taught Kodaly-based ear-training at the Vancouver Community College Music Department. Plus, he had a special Thursday night pedagogy class for students interested in teaching through the Kodaly ideas. I attended that class for three years. John Young was that one special teacher ...
