Papa John DeFrancesco, the father of organist/trumpeter Joey DeFrancesco and guitarist John DeFrancesco II, is an excellent organist in the style of Jimmy Smith. He did not begin to emerge on records until the 1990s, but has made up for lost time through his High Note recordings. This particular set has plenty of blues (including Lalo Schifrin's "The Cat," "Freddy the Freeloader," "Back at the Chicken Shack," and "Hip Cake Walk") along with a few standards and basic chord changes. DeFrancesco, whose two sons are on some of the selections (with Joey on trumpet) is the main voice throughout. The supporting cast includes the fine if obscure tenor saxophonist Bootsie Barnes. A fun session that is easily recommended to fans of the swinging and bluesy jazz organ. ~ Scott Yanow

| | Nina Simone At The Village Gate CD (1962)
Hip Cake Walk CD music
$9.29
AT THE VILLAGE GATE captures the legendary Nina Simone live with her fine trio in 1961, still early in her career, at New York City's intimate Village Gate club. Simone is a musical anomaly, and her music can be very hard to categorize. She is a classically trained pianist. At times her complex piano parts call to mind Bach ("Bye Bye Blackbird"). She is a folk singer-witness her biting version of "The House of the Rising Sun." She is a gospel singer, as heard in GATE's roof-raising version of "Children Go Where I Send You." She is a jazz singer, with a finger-poppin' and shuffling version of "Just inTime." She's also a protest singer and a powerful actress capable of manipulating our fiercest emotions through song.
Simone is all these things. Moreover, she understands that only the music matters-whatever form it may take. Like smoke, her music constantly shifts shapes. Simone's eclecticism makes her a perfect artist for any time. This legendary concert document will always sound fresh and original, just as it did the night it was recorded, and her unique music will never go out of style.
LIVE AT THE VILLAGE GATE captures a 1961 performance at an intimate New York club early in the singer's career. Originally released on the Colpix label, this much-acclaimed recording features Nina's androgynous, mahogany vocals alongside her classically influenced piano playing, supported by a trio of fine musicians. Simone's music defies categorization--she expertly dips into jazz, folk, blues, gospel, and then some. With her unique artistry and highly charged performances, she cuts to the core or her audience's emotions.
Highlights of this set include a biting version of "The House of the Rising Sun," a shuffling version of "Just in Time," a heartbreaking "He Was Too Good to Me," an African flavored "Zungo," and an instrumental version of "Bye Bye Blackbird," ...
