Purchase Smooth Grooves: Smooth Jazz Vol. 2 CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Allman Brothers Band Dreams CDs (1989) Box Set
Smooth Grooves: Smooth Jazz Vol. 2 album
$38.49 DREAMS is a 4-CD box set compiling in chronological order tracks by the Allman Brothers Band, as well as tracks by bands featuring one or more member of the Allman Brothers Band and solo performances by Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts.
Recorded between 1966 & 1988. Includes a 32-page illustrated booklet and liner notes by John Swenson.
Like nearly all box sets, DREAMS has plenty to recommend it-and a few nagging drawbacks. The set's chief shortcoming is its two conflicting goals: providing an overview of the Allmans' history, thus attracting buyers seeking the ultimate hits package, and including enough unreleased tracks and rarities to appeal to the band's most devoted fans. As a ...

$19.79 Recorded between 1967 & 1983. Includes liner notes by Jim Ladd.
Released to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the release of the first Doors album, THE VERY BEST OF THE DOORS supercedes all former Doors compilations. At two discs and 34 tracks, this is quite comprehensive for a band whose key lineup released only half a dozen albums. In addition to all the expected hits like "Light My Fire," "Hello I Love You," and "Roadhouse Blues," this compilation delves much deeper into the catalogue with fan favorites such as "Not To Touch the Earth" and "Wishful Sinful," as well as a handful of previously obscure ...

| | Orion Some Think He Might Be King Elvis CD (1991) (Import) Germany
Smooth Grooves: Smooth Jazz Vol. 2 album
$22.05 Only a handful of Elvis Presley impressionists proved viable on the popularity charts: Terry Stafford, Ral Donner, and Orion (aka Jimmy Ellis), all of whom cultivated a sound-alike style that transcended mere influence and entered the realm of vocal impersonation. Sun Records' marketing of Orion took the schtick one step further than Donner and Stafford did by implying that Orion actually was Elvis, who had (the story goes) faked his own death to escape the scrutiny of fame. It's unclear why Elvis would go to such lengths only to re-emerge singing his old songs and looking exactly like his former self -- down to the sequined duds and pompadour hairstyle -- but wearing a Lone Ranger mask and using a different name. Nevertheless, that was the legend of Orion, whose voice was so similar to Elvis' that many wishful fans fully embraced the fanciful resurrection story. Some Think He Might Be King Elvis is an anthology of Orion's Sun recordings from 1972-1982 that includes a handful of previously unreleased cuts. During this period he graced the country charts nearly a dozen times with minor hits like "Rockabilly Rebel" and a cover of Queen's "Crazy Little Thing Called Love," but only a few of ...
| | Charlie Haden American Dreams CD (2002)
Smooth Grooves: Smooth Jazz Vol. 2 CD music
$12.29 This overly long quartet-plus-strings session is Charlie Haden's paean to an ideal America, made during a time that was ripe for such reflections. The band, with Haden on bass, Michael Brecker on tenor, Brad Mehldau on piano, and Brian Blade on drums, is unassailably strong. But listeners could have lived without the ear-candy sheen provided by the 34-piece orchestra, arranged primarily by Alan Broadbent, with additional contributions from Jeremy Lubbock and Vince Mendoza. (Broadbent and Mendoza also penned charts for Jane Monheit's In the Sun, released two weeks earlier.) Aside from outright banalities like "America the Beautiful" and "It Might Be You" (yes, the Stephen Bishop lite-radio hit), there are some saving graces, like Keith Jarrett's "Prism" and "No Lonely ...

In a trio set with bassist Richie Goods and drummer Tony Reedus, Wonsey delivers a mix of standards, classic jazz compositions, and his delightful originals, ...
