Tete Montoliu's sixth release for Steeplechase is a very rewarding studio date, with the blind pianist being accompanied by bassist Niels Pedersen and drummer Albert "Tootie" Heath. Fans of hard bop will enjoy the extended opener, "Invitation," which gives each of the musicians an opportunity to solo. The fireworks continue with a lively interpretation of "Lover Man," which starts with Montoliu's virtuoso solo introduction. John Coltrane's "Some Other Blues" is also fertile ground for the trio's improvisations, as is J. J. Johnson's pretty ballad "Lament." The pianist turns on the afterburners as he launches his furious original "Tootie's Tempo." The closer is a rich arrangement of "Darn That Dream." This CD is highly recommended, as are all of Tete Montoliu's recordings for Steeplechase. ~ Ken Dryden Tootie's Tempo Review

Is this the best of Alien Sex Fiend? Unless you've been frying the fat with the band all along, you'll have a hard time even figuring out (or remembering) where and when the cuts were first released. All came out from 1983-1997, but otherwise there's no documentation, the liner notes consisting of a huge jumble of black-and-white scraps of Alien Sex Fiend chart listings, print ...
| | Deuter Sea & Silence CD (2003)
Tootie's Tempo
$12.49
Composer: Deuter.
In the tradition of Sun Spirit, Garden of the Gods, and Like the Wind in the Trees comes Sea & Silence, another of Deuter's explorations of nature through music. As the title suggests, Sea & Silence mixes the sound of waves crashing on the shore with Deuter's usual mix of synths, flutes, and instruments like guitar and tabla, but arguably the most important part of the album's sound is the silence Deuter uses to convey the seashore's vastness and tranquility. Pieces like "Silent Bay," "Reflection 1," and the 13-minute title track feature elongated, rippling flute melodies that gently and subtly move from pensive minor keys to blissful major ones. Pianos, guitars, and windchimes add a little more color ...
| | John Coltrane Traneing In CD (1957) (Import) Import
Tootie's Tempo
$28.89
Japanese limited edition issue of the album classic in a deluxe, miniaturized LP sleeve replica of the original vinyl album artwork.
Personnel: John Coltrane (tenor saxophone); Red Garland (piano); Paul Chambers (bass); Art Taylor (drums).
Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Hackensack, New Jersey on August 23, 1957. Originally released on Prestige (7123). Includes liner notes by Ira Gitler and Ralph Berton.
Digitally remastered by Steve Hoffman.
Even with comparatively nominal experience in the role of bandleader, John Coltrane (tenor sax) ably commands the Red Garland Trio -- consisting of Garland (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), and Art Taylor (drums) -- through five selections on John Coltrane with the Red Garland Trio (1958). Here the players are given the perfect platform to demonstrate their respective versatility as performers, combo members, and for Coltrane, as a composer of the project's opener and title track "Traneing In," as well as the masterful "Bass Blues." The former is one of the tenor's best-known works as it not only bears his surname, but also exemplifies some of his trademark performance attributes -- namely his abilities as an effective communicator and arranger. Garland takes the front end of the tune before yielding to Coltrane. Once Chambers gets in on the action, he lets loose with references to the children's seasonal favorite "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" in the playful spirit of the moment. Conversely, the bassist's introduction to the earthy ballad "Slow Dance" begins with a brief excursion into formless dissonance that rapidly dissolves into a noir ballad that shimmers in Coltrane's refreshing, robust, and brisk lines. His domination is brief as Chambers, who is followed by Garland, become primary participants. The pianist's lush and richly appointed fills are comparable to that of Nat King Cole or even Erroll Garner with the rhythm section providing a textural balance. Coltrane's assertive original "Bass Blues" drives forward with the tenor remaining evenhanded, if not at times purposefully reserved. Less staid are Garland's limber blues runs as he frolics up and down the '88s. Chambers' contributions should not be overlooked either as his interminably cheerful bowing enhances the optimistic feel. Always a sucker for a love song, "You Leave Me Breathless" is nothing short of sublime and this rendition ...
