The Dimitri Pokrovsky Singers: Dimitri Pokrovsky, Anna Konukhova, Maria Nefedova, Andrei Kotov, Alexander Danilov, Nina Savistskaya, Elena Sidorenko, Dimitri Fokin, Sergei Zhirkov, Vladimir Teplov, Tamara Smyslova, Irina Ponomaryova, Arthur Partosh, Sergei Grigoriev (vocals).
During the cold war, collaborations between U.S. and Russian musicians were infrequent. Yet, in a rare act of solidarity, the Paul Winter Consort and the The Dimitri Pokrovsky Singers came together to create a compelling set of music. Each song on EARTHBEAT combines American jazz with Russian folk music. And along the way, other styles of music, such as Latin, seep into the mix too.
More than anything, this is celebratory music. With the exception of "The Lake," this album is far from introspective. In fact, it explodes with energy and vigor on almost every track. Album openers "Kurski Funk" and "The Horse Walked in the Grass" feature the Pokrovsky Singers wailing over Winter's octet. In addition to singing, they hoot, holler, and whistle. Other pieces such as "Kyrie" and "Down in Belgorod" blend smooth jazz and sleek saxophone riffs with intense Russian singing. Despite the uniqueness of the former, "Song For The World" remains the most poignant track on EARTHBEAT. An anthem for peace and amity, this composition will probably never lose its relevance.
Recorded at Melodiya Studios, Moscow, Russia in March 1987; Cathedral Of St. John The Divine, Radio City Recording Studio and Manhattan Recording Company, New York, New York between April and June 1987. Includes liner notes by Paul Winter.

| | Bebel Gilberto All In One CD (2009)
Earthbeat music CDs
$12.05
With ALL IN ONE, Bebel Gilberto made her home at Verve, which is not just an auspicious label for music but also the home of some of the best Brazilian records of all time--by Antonio Carlos Jobim, Astrud Gilberto (who is no relation, although she was married to Bebel's father before Bebel's birth), Stan Getz, and, of course, her father, Joao Gilberto. It's obvious Gilberto is well aware of this: the cover is reminiscent of an Astrud Gilberto album and she sings a version of "Bim Bom," which was written by her father and is known popularly for Astrud's version (what's more, it features the piano work of Brazilian royalty Dan Jobim). Still, it's clear Bebel Gilberto knows where to draw the line, and ALL IN ONE is defined more by her songs and her collaborators than the weight of Brazilian musical history that she must carry. Multi-percussionist Carlinhos Brown gets the most instrument credits (his kit bag must weigh a ton), and his string of percussion instruments brings a rich texture to every song he graces. (He also co-wrote the best new songs, "Nossa Senhora" and "Ela [On My Way].") ...

Nearly a decade after Dean Martin's death, the crooner's fans were finally given the definitive Dino collection. While there was already a two-disc summation of Martin's Capitol recordings, as well as several compilations of his Reprise material, the single-disc, 30-track DINO: THE ESSENTIAL DEAN MARTIN contains a generous selection of the best of his work, culling from both ...
| | George Benson Greatest Hits Of All CD (2003) Remastered
Earthbeat album
$10.19 
Recorded between 1976 & 1998. Includes liner notes by Don Heckman.
Basically, this "greatest hits of all" is simply that: the highest-charting tracks in George Benson's long career -- highest-charting pop and adult contemporary tracks, that is. Benson had been on the scene over a decade before signing with Warner Bros., and many of his jukebox and R&B hits were recorded for Creed Taylor's CTI label. Some of Benson's recorded work that held those hits has been reissued in the past two years. Of the Warner material, they have gauged success by chart placement -- not sales, not radio play, not artist choice. Therefore, while the stellar tracks from Breezin', namely "This Masquerade," which charted at number one on pop and R&B in Billboard, ...
