Jazz suffered a major loss when, in the late 1960s, Buck Clayton had to retire from playing due to problems with his lip. But instead of permanently retiring from jazz altogether, he continued to make his mark as an arranger, band leader and educator. Clayton doesn't play at all on A Buck Clayton Jam Session: 1975; instead, this blowing date finds him overseeing and directing a 12-piece band that includes Joe Newman and Money Johnson on trumpet, Vic Dickenson and George Masso on trombone, Buddy Tate, Buddy Johnson and Sal Nistico on tenor sax, Lee Konitz and Earle Warren on alto sax, Tommy Flanagan on piano, Milt Hinton on bass and Mel Lewis on drums. To be sure, that's a variety of musicians--some have strong swing credentials, others were primarily hard boppers, and you even have a musician who came out of the Cool School (Konitz) and went on to explore post-bop. But they manage to find common ground on this swing-oriented jam, which concentrates on Clayton's own compositions and emphasizes blowing, blowing and more blowing. Thankfully, the liner notes list the order of the solos. Originally a vinyl LP in the 1970s and reissued on CD in 1995 (when Chiaroscuro added two previously unreleased bonus tracks), A Buck Clayton Jam Session is less than essential but is an enjoyable jam that diehard swing fans will appreciate. ~ Alex Henderson

Buck Clayton Jam Session, Vol. : 1975 songs
$8.39 WaterSound Dive into the genre crossing depths of electronic events highlighted with a brilliant lyrical light. From the beginning, the tender arrangement of "Angel of Flight" leaps us into the emotional air and provides a soft cushiony landing. "The earth is so soft with you, on the surface, you gave me courage". An Electronic symphony with a baby grand piano is the soul, and the haunting vocals of a romanticist, is the flowing water. This is just the start of a ride through some alternative pop, electronic rock and finale' spoken word piece. Maverick Records A&R(home of Alanis and Madonna) gave the lyrics to Watersound, "A Ten". "The Good Girl" 12 string guitar work dawns another unique delivery of a message: single mothers raising fine children, under a more Americana/electronic setting. Now, its off to "California Twelve" where you are in a time machine, "After all, It's still yesterday" on the east coast, and we can still make up, without letting a day pass by. "We're ...
