Hal Galper was on a tear during the 1970s, writing a number of adventurous post-bop compositions and getting regular opportunities to record them. This 1976 studio session for Steeplechase features the pianist with trumpeter Randy Brecker, tenor saxophonist Michael Brecker, bassist Wayne Dockery, and drummer Billy Hart. The turbulent opener, "Reach Out," must have been incredible to hear in a live setting; this studio version features an intense, constantly searching solo by the leader, as well as impassioned solos by the Brecker Brothers. Michael switches to flute for the brisk "Spidit," which blends post-bop and elements of Latin jazz. Galper, a former sideman for Chet Baker, penned the multi-faceted "Waiting for Chet," possibly to represent the tumultuous life of the troubled trumpeter; in this song, Michael starts on flute but switches to tenor sax. The leader arranged terrific interpretations of two Gershwin standards. Ending the CD is the extended composition "Children of the Night," in which everyone solos, though everyone drops out as Wayne Dockery delivers a stunning performance. This is easily one of Hal Galper's best recordings. ~ Ken Dryden
Personnel: Hal Galper (piano); Michael Brecker (tenor saxophone); Randy Brecker (trumpet); Wayne Dockery (bass); Billy Hart (drums).

Director Tim Blake Nelson sets Shakespeare's OTHELLO in a modern day private high school and the result is a dark, somber teen tragedy. Mekhi Phifer (CLOCKERS) stars as Odin James, an African American star basketball player at the otherwise all-white school. The coach of the team (Martin Sheen) loves Odin like a son, which causes real son Hugo (Josh Hartnett) to squirm with jealousy and plan an elaborate revenge. Julia Stiles (a modern dress Shakespeare regular, having also co-starred in HAMLET and TEN THINGS I HATE ...
| | Miles Davis Kind Of Blue CD (1959) Bonus Track; Remastered
Reach Out music CDs
 $6.25   
With BIRTH OF THE COOL, Miles Davis distilled a new tonal palette for jazz. As early as 1954, Miles reacted to the escalating chordal complexity of hard bop by fashioning an evocative blues based on a simple scalar pattern ("Swing Spring"). KIND OF BLUE was the ultimate fulfillment of this approach, with Miles providing his collaborators little more than outlines for melodies and simple scales for improvisation. By emphasizing the blues and the improvisor's melodic gifts, KIND OF BLUE precipitated a major stylistic development--modal jazz.

Bart Davenport, The "Mayor of the East Bay," lets loose on this five song E.P. taken from the "Maroon Cocoon" sessions. Like the few rockers on MC all the tracks feature live MPC drum machine (played by Tony Sevener, member of Quannum recording artists H
Seal the Deal! is a limited-edition EP of songs recorded during the sessions for Bart Davenport's disappointing Maroon Cocoon album. Of the five tracks, two of them suffer from the same malady that sank the album. The acoustic version of the Three O'Clock's "Jet Fighter" and the sparse ballad "Desert Flower" sound like demos in search of arrangements. They're nice but that's all. The rest of the album is another story though. "Want Some," one of the better songs from the record, is given a slightly more powerful backing with gentle drums and fuzz bass, which boosts it from a decent song to a really good one. It makes you wish Davenport ...

Reach Out music CDs
$14.19
Normally, you'd probably do your best to ignore any unusual noises coming from the toolshed - but this particular sound is more than worth checking out. Led by jazz-groove guitarist/songwriter Stephen Franke, this hot new band has been making waves at festivals and clubs across North America since its formation in October 2002. Most recently they played to sold-out jazz festival, opening for Little Feat and DJ Jazzy Jeff. The spring of 2004 brings about the release of their debut album 'Songs for a Platinum Blonde Diner Waitress', on Blue Heron Records.Powered by the distinctive sound of Franke's 1949 Gibson L4 archtop guitar amplified through a Leslie organ speaker, Noises from the Toolshed play a unique blend of gypsy jazz and groove with strong Latin and Cuban influences. There are shades of Django Rheinhardt, Medeski Martin ...

Principally recorded at Angel Sound and Trident Studios, London, England.
Those who look at this album-length "EP" as the next bold step in the evolution of the ever-progressing Goldie will be disappointed, simply because that's not what it's supposed to be. As Goldie himself admits, his musical passions and creativity experienced a rebirth in the making of SATURNZ RETURN, and the cuts here offer remixes of tracks from that recording, presenting an intriguing alternate view of the album. Ethereal vocal ...
