Carla Cook's Dem Bones follows her critically acclaimed and commercially successful Maxjazz debut, It's All About Love. The Grammy-nominated artist taps into her diverse musical influences and presents a musical autobiography reflected in 11 songs. The precision of her multi-hued voice is accompanied by such great musicians as Cyrus Chestnut on piano; Fred Wesley, Craig Harris, and Tyrone Jefferson on trombones; James Genus on bass; and Billy Kilson on drums. Packed with straight-ahead jazz, the crowning glory on this CD is the approach she uses on the title cut, "Dem Bones." Tastefully arranged for three trombones (her voice being the fourth "bone") Cook's presentation adds a modern dimension to the use of the trombone -- both muted and open -- as an expressive "voice" in a jazz composition. Wesley, Craig, and Jefferson show just how expressive in a wonderfully improvised section that features them slurring and sliding on their "bones." Another great song is "For the Elders," a bebop piece that shines with Cyrus Chestnut's light piano stylings set against Cook's voice in tandem with the trombone. Craig Harris' solo is once again stellar and indicative of the remarkable versatility of this instrument in capable hands. Since Carla Cook has such a great voice (not only for jazz, but for R&B and gospel as well), along with excellent taste in song selection, Dem Bones should maintain her loyal following. With something for everyone, it represents her excellent jazz vocal techniques very well and rises to the occasion -- one that can be defined as a great hour of jazz. ~ Paula Edelstein

Dem Bones music CDs
$16.09 This compilation contains 38 songs, including many new remixes from original master tapes, 6 previously unreleased songs, alternate versions of 3 others, and a comprehensive 36 page booklet, with historic liner notes and photos.
This excellent two-disc collection captures Poco's finest moments from the days when they were laying down the template for all the country-rock music that was to follow. It's hard to remember, but when the Eagles first hit the scene, they were thought by many to be a Poco-wannabe band. Listen to this set and you'll hear why.

Dem Bones album
$13.15 Hello, greetings and a warm welcome to all,A little on me:I began writing lyrics many years ago. I met a number of nice musicians and turned many words into songs. Bought a guitar, then later turned my attention to a sound module that I purchased along with a keyboard and mixer. Through working with various other nice musicians, many songs were produced with other musical equipment. I enjoy listening to music from various genres as well as being creative in various areas of music. This album "Surrender" has a combination of productions that embrace various genres including dance, ballads, rap, hip hop and commercial pop. It was a real pleasure making these compositions and I hope you like them.THE COMPOSITIONS ON THE ALBUM ARE AS FOLLOWS:1. Tekniqe - Tekniqe - 4:23This is a rap, hip hop tune with some experimenting.2. Amazing Creation - Tekniqe - 5:07A dance track with quite a nice analogue phasing bass that comes into play around 2:49. You must listen to the song from this stage onwards to appreciate the analogue phasing bass.3. Tutankhamoun - Tekniqe - 2:30A light hearted fun song to do, with light hearted fun rap lyrics. It was liked well, by people of various ages from youngsters to adults when we first made it, or should I say when it was first available for peoples ears to listen too.4. God's All Forgiving...Let Me Be - Tekniqe featuring Dr Ed and Gp - 5:07This was made with three other friends, another rap, hip hop track.5. New Beginning - Tekniqe featuring S and Paula ...
