Taking a vacation from abstraction, Hassell kicks out a near set of dance tunes with Burkino Faso musicians, Farafina. So great is his exhilaration, he even gives us peeks at the natural timbre of his trumpet. It was produced by Hassell, Daniel Lanois, and Brian Eno. ~ Bob Tarte

| | Johnny Cash Rockabilly Blues CD (1980)
Flash Of The Spirit music CDs
$10.49
This criminally underrated 1980 album came during what's mistakenly regarded as a fallow period in Cash's recording career. The idea was to make a record that would bring Cash back to his rockabilly roots. That's not exactly what happened--there's hardly any real rockabilly on this album--but the results are impressive nonetheless. The hard-hitting, stripped-down sound does recall the lean, mean Cash of days long past, and the material rivals anything from his '70s or late-'70s catalog.
Things open with a kick on "Cold, Lonesome Morning," an unflinchingly realistic account of a failing romance, full of the hard-bitten fatalism that made songs like "Folsom Prison" so successful. A winning take on Nick Lowe's gem "Without Love" features the Attractions' Pete Thomas on drums, and fits perfectly into the sonic scheme. Quirky, memorable tunes by Kris Kristofferson and Billy Joe Shaver crop up as well, performed with characteristic precision and aplomb.
While stepdaughter Carlene Carter was hanging out with then-husband Nick Lowe and his British roots rock mates Dave Edmunds, Martin Belmont, and Pete Thomas, Johnny Cash decided to see what they thought about the font they claimed for inspiration: rockabilly and roots country. Lowe got to produce one track on Rockabilly Blues, as did old pal and rockabilly co-conspirator Cowboy Jack Clement. Earl Pool Ball did the other eight, but Cash held the reins tight. Rockabilly Blues, along with Johnny 99 -- also reissued by Koch -- is one of the great lost Cash records. Not only does it feature two of his finer songs from the period, the title track and the bitter love song "Cold Lonesome Morning," it features Cash singing a pair of gems by Billy Joe Shaver, "The Cowboy Who Started the Fight" and "It Ain't Nothing New Babe," as well as one by Cash acolyte Kris Kristofferson, "The Last Time" (which, incidentally, is one of the last times a new Kristofferson tune was recorded by anyone). Cash's "Rockabilly Blues (Texas 1955)" is not essentially a rockabilly tune, though Edmunds' guitar playing certainly embodies its feel -- but then, Cash was never a rockabilly singer, either. "One Way Rider," with its horns and staccato ...
| | Jeff Kaye Just Like Me CD (2005)
Flash Of The Spirit songs
$13.39
Trumpeter Jeff Kaye is best known for his extensive work as a sideman in Ray Charles Orchestra, but on this studio effort as a leader, he returns to jazz, his first love. His band combines familiar names, including pianist John Campbell, Swiss bassist Isla Eckinger, drummer Paul Kreibich (the drummer in the final edition of the Gene Harris Quartet) with fellow Ray Charles Orchestra sideman George Harper on tenor sax, and newcomer Josh Nelson on piano (subbing for the unavailable Campbell during one session). Kaye's reworking of "Giant Steps," which he calls "Other Steps," alters Coltrane's original theme just enough to take it in a new direction, while his soft bossa nova "Sozinho" features his warm flugelhorn. Kreibich contributed "Partido in Mar Vista," a Brazilian-flavored work that would get any audience up and swaying along with it. Eckinger's mid-tempo hard bop vehicle "Two Deaf Lice" is based upon "Three Blind Mice," but its subtle connection may not be readily audible to the casual listener. Kaye also explores familiar works, including a powerful interpretation of "Everything I Have Is Yours," accompanied by the rhythm section alone, along with delivering an inspired performance of Dizzy Gillespie's infrequently played "That's Earl, Brother!" This very enjoyable session by Jeff Kaye will hopefully result ...
