Joni Mitchell's most controversial album is the infamous MINGUS. A tribute to the legendary jazz bassist of the same name, this is an intriguing meeting of Joni's sultry, burnished vocals and some of the best modern jazz musicians, at the intersection of pop and jazz. Critics in both the rock and jazz worlds unjustly dismissed the record as an attempt by Mitchell to ...

TWO AGAINST NATURE won the 2001 Grammy Award for Album Of The Year, won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album, won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Engineered Album and "Cousin Dupree" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
In the 20 years that elapsed between 1980's GAUCHO and its follow-up, Steely Dan linchpins Donald Fagen and Walter Becker dabbled in solo projects, toured with the Rock & Soul Revue, and spent most of the '90s gearing up for the band's long-awaited eighth studio album, TWO AGAINST NATURE. Only nine songs long, TWO AGAINST NATURE is a clear example of quality over quantity. As has been the modus operandi throughout Steely Dan's existence, Fagen and Becker gathered an impressive backup crew of jazz players with impeccable chops to season the proceedings.
With both Becker and Fagen ...
| | Who By Numbers CD (1975) Remastered
Grieg And Chopin: Piano Concertos
$10.55
The 1996 reissue of THE WHO BY NUMBERS contains three live bonus tracks that weren't on the original LP. "Squeeze Box," "Behind Blue Eyes" and "Dreaming From The Waist" were recorded live in Swansea, Wales in 1976.
Recorded in 1975 & 1976. Originally released on MCA (2161) in October 1975. Includes liner notes by Penny Valentine and John Swenson.
Arguably the most underrated of the Who's albums, THE WHO BY NUMBERS represents a return to a more straight-ahead rock & roll sound after the extensive orchestration of QUADROPHENIA. It includes a pair of certified classics in "Slip Kid' and "Squeeze Box," as well as two of Townshend's prettiest ballads, "Imagine a Man" and "Blue Red and Grey." Released at a time when the man who wrote "I hope I die before I get old" was turning 30, many of the songs on WHO BY NUMBERS seem to be Townshend's way of dealing with the hardships of life as a hard-living, quickly aging rock star.
Melancholy, world-weary and nostalgic, WHO BY NUMBERS is a far cry from the ...
| | George Harrison All Things Must Pass CDs (1970) 30th Ann; Remastered; Digipak
Grieg And Chopin: Piano Concertos
$19.49
Though George Harrison's solo albums for most of the 1970s and early '80s were uneven, often slapdash affairs, 1970's ALL THINGS MUST PASS is a brilliant piece of work. Produced by Phil Spector, whose expansive, majestic arrangements and sonic flourishes suit Harrison's songs perfectly, ALL THINGS MUST PASS eclipses everything the other Beatles recorded at the time (excepting John Lennon's PLASTIC ONO BAND). This sprawling double record gives the impression of Harrison being uncorked and pouring forth all of the songs and ideas edged out by Lennon and McCartney during the Beatles years.
The title and the melancholic black and white cover photo match the mood of the music, which brims with an armchair wisdom, and the weary, disillusioned air that permeated the early '70s in the counter-cultural wake. Yet the album also boasts ...

In many ways, the last volume in the ECM Rarum series of artist-chosen retrospectives is also one of its finest. Jon Christensen is the label's drummer of drummers. He has played with virtually every major leader on the roster, and his fluid, enigmatic touch has graced ECM's most outstanding recordings. Christensen has the rapacious appetite of an Elvin Jones or Roy Haynes, but combines it with the wondrously light, dancer's touch of a Billy Higgins. The nine tracks here showcase Christensen's uncanny ability to adapt, color, and in some cases even drive the vision of a bandleader toward its flourish. On the opening track, "Personal Mountains" (the title cut from a Keith Jarrett date with Jan Garberek and Palle Danielsson filling out the quartet), Christensen pushes Jarrett out of character, making the pianist hit the keys in direct response to the graceful yet furious attack coming from the kit. Alongside Ralph Towner on "Piscean Dance," a 12-string and drum duo, Christensen whispers incessantly, offering Towner the bedrock of force he needs to get physical with his guitar. On the funky "Per Ulev," led by Terje Rypdal, Christensen adds a shimmering Afro-Brazilian touch to his rhythm mélange and carries the track over. But it is on "Oceanus," from Towner's Solstice album with Garbarek, Eberhard Weber, and Towner, that Christensen is heard in his role of drummer as singing dancer. His double-timed whispering snare and cymbal work are accented with such sensitivity and motion that everyone plays off him. Towner fills the air with edgy chords and hammering runs on his 12-string as punched entries into the maelstrom as Garbarek articulates some far-off melody right into the kit. Weber, free not to worry about his end of time keeping, is free to engage with the other two as Christensen simultaneously holds the central space and moves it forward into near oblivion. But the most beautiful track on the entire set is the title track from Bobo Stenson's War Orphans from 1997. Christensen's place in the trio with the pianist and bassist Anders Jormin is one of melodist and harmonist. This is deeply moving music played with such care and dexterity that Christensen is all but completely unobtrusive, but provides the motion and dynamic for Stenson to articulate his open-field harmonic dexterity. In sum, Christensen's volume offers a rather stunning portrait of the ECM core roster, how exploratory and adventurous it has been since its inception, and continues to be. Highly recommended. ~ Thom Jurek
