The Tunisian oud genius has done it again. Anouar Brahem has issued only five records under his own name over the past decade, each more adventurous than the last, without compromising his original vision: for the music of his region to meet with the other music of Africa and Asia and create a delirious sound that is equal thirds past, present, and future, along the precipice of historical lineage. For Brahem there is no attempt to synthesize the globe, or even the sounds of the East with those of the West. He is content in his knowledge that sound is infinite, and that his tradition, as it evolves and expands into a deeper pan-African/trans-Asian whole, is more than large enough for a master musician to rummage through in one lifetime. Astrakan Café, the follow-up to his brilliant Thimar, is a smaller-sounding recording that reaches farther into the deep crags of the Balkans. With Barbaros Erköse on clarinet and the Indian and Turkish percussion stylings of the professor of somber precision, Lassad Hosni, Brahem's oud enters into a dialogue, musically, that has never before existed (though he has collaborated with both players previously). Erköse is a Turkish clarinetist of gypsy origin. His low, warm, rounded tones are consonant with the oud. Erköse plays equal parts music of the Balkan and Arab worlds with a tinge of the ancient klezmorim whispering their secrets through his horn. Despite the journeying these musicians do here, they never stray far from the takht, a small ensemble capable of improvising to the point of drunken ecstasy. Listening through Astrakan Café, you can hear the gypsy flamenco tied deeply to Indian ragas and even a kind of Eastern jazz. But there is no hyperactivity in it, no need to cram as many traditions as possible into one putridly excessive mix that expresses nothing but the novelty of the moment. Astrakan Café has many highlights: its two title tracks that have their roots in Russian and Azerbaijan music; "Ashkabad," which is an improvisation on a melody from the folk music of Turkmenistan; "Astara," a modal improvisation based on love songs from Azerbaijan; "Halfounie," a segment from a Brahem-composed soundtrack inspired by the medina or marketplace in Tunis; and "Parfum de Gitanie," which takes a fragment from Ethiopian sacred music, slows it to the point of stillness, and waxes lazily and jazzily over the top, with the oud and the clarinet trading syncopated eights. This is deeply personal, profound music. It is also highly iconographic, with timelessness woven through every measure. The only "exotica" on Astrakan Café ...
| | David Sanborn Timeagain CD (2003)
Great album
$11.79 
TIMEAGAIN was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Jazz Album.
David Sanborn defined modern mainstream-jazz saxophone throughout the 1970s and '80s with a string of coolly pristine dance/funk-influenced records. Consequently, Sanborn paved the way for the mega-success of pop-jazz artists like Kenny G. After embracing a pop-oriented vibe himself on 1999's INSIDE, with TIMEAGAIN Sanborn returns to what one might call his "classic" sound--a highly rhythmic, cleanly produced yet earthy blend of R&B grooves, accessible tunes, and elegant, sublimely understated alto saxophone work.
Though the sound is as crystal-clear as always, the record often has the feel of a groovy late-night jam session; one can almost imagine people bobbing their heads and sipping their ...

Bird Songs of the Arctic-Along the Dempster HighwayA double CD album from John Neville Reviewed by Gordon EdgarSo, It is May 2004, and the ‘Neville Recording’ team is on the road again, and heading north!However, before I launch into this review, some background information would not go amiss.History of Neville RecordingWhen John arrived in Canada in 1975 there were precious few recordings available for students of birdsong. He became interested in the subject and started nature recording in 1994 after attending a workshop at Cornell University.John published his first title, ‘Birds of the Kootenays’ in the same year, and has never looked back. It is fair to say that he is now a record-label mogul!The ‘Neville Recording’ team consists of John and Heather, plus Falco the dog. They are veterans of many campaigns in their self contained RV, dubbed the ‘Bird Mobile’. ‘Bird Songs of the Arctic’ is their ninth title so we can assume that the team is fully trained and these legendary expeditions are slick, well-rehearsed operations.EquipmentFellow recordists will want to know that John uses a trusty directional Sennheiser 416 and a Telinga Pro-5 ‘parabolic’ microphone to a Marantz PMD 650 MiniDisc Recorder.He recharges the MiniDisc batteries using an ’ inverter / charger’ to boost power from the mobile bunkhouse. Bio-acoustniks will appreciate that a MiniDisc is not as ‘power-hungry’ as a DAT recorder but it is good to be liberated from the electricity grid when working in faraway places.Post productionMaking the recordings is only part of the operation and John spends the rest of the year script writing and documenting his raw audio.He is working with a new sound engineer named Traz Damji, so the next stage took place at Traz’s studio in Vancouver, recording ...
