Live in Sevilla, recorded and released in the year 2000, is arguably the finest document in this extremely prolific jazz quartet's catalog. If there's anyone who still believes that John Zorn is nothing more than an avant-garde screamer, look no further. The interplay between Zorn's alto and the trumpet of Dave Douglas is nothing short of amazing, and each one's soloing is focused and intense. Joey Baron and Greg Cohen are a fantastic rhythm section; Cohen acts as anchor while Baron playfully dances around the beat, simultaneously supplying a driving pulse. Even when Zorn and Douglas enter the realm of extended techniques (as on the end of "Ne'eman"), Cohen and Baron keep things firmly grounded. Of course, the real stars of the show are Zorn and Douglas; their solos are never less than dazzling, and each has an utterly unique style. Zorn's trademark alto wails are delightful and Dave Douglas has a warm and buttery tone all his own. This might also be the best recorded of the live Masada releases, making it a real jewel in an already glittering discography. Live in Sevilla proves that Masada is one of the most exciting jazz ensembles in the world, bar none. ~ Sean Westergaard

Masada: Live In Sevilla 2000 music CDs
$10.69 Lee Ritenour, a superior studio guitarist, has recorded very few jazz albums throughout his career, preferring to play melodic pop and light funk. On the rare occasions when he has had an urge to perform jazz, Ritenour has been more than happy to show off the influence of Wes Montgomery; therefore, this tribute is a logical move, even if the results are not all that exciting. Ritenour mostly plays pieces from the later (and more commercial) half of Montgomery's ...

The septuagenarian veteran, who has been a major Hollywood composer for nearly 40 years, is known for his restraint and sense of the functional in film music, often reworking a single theme through ...
| | Braxton Brothers Both Sides CD (2002)
Masada: Live In Sevilla 2000 CD music
$9.79 Some independent labels work very hard to establish an identity, and the Concord-distributed Peak Records is obviously such a label. The Peak sound, in a nutshell, is very quiet storm -- NAC/smooth jazz meets urban adult contemporary. Peak is obviously going after the sort of listener who has a lot of Anita Baker and Luther Vandross in his/her collection but also listens to Grover Washington, Jr. and David Sanborn. That isn't to say that all of Peak's releases are as creative as those artists' best work -- the company's releases have ranged from decent to forgettable. Released in 2002, the Braxton Brothers' Both Sides is quite faithful to Peak's quiet storm history. This CD ranges from vocal-oriented urban/adult contemporary tracks to urban-minded NAC/smooth jazz instrumentals along the lines of Najee and the late George Howard. In fact, saxman Wayne Braxton (who is half of the Braxton Brothers) sounds like he has spent a lot of time listening to players like Najee, Howard, Dave Koz, and Kenny G (all of whom were heavily influenced by Washington but have, for the most part, lacked his creativity). Most of the material is forgettable and pedestrian, ...
