| | Billy Cobham Crosswinds CD - Import Billy Cobham Discography of CDs
Billy Cobham's second date as a leader was one of his better sessions. Four songs (all originals by the leader/drummer) comprise "Spanish Moss -- A Sound Portrait," and, in addition, Cobham contributed three other pieces. The selections team him with guitarist John Abercrombie, both of the Brecker Brothers, trombonist Garnett Brown, keyboardist George Duke, bassist John Williams, and Latin percussionist Lee Pastora. In general, the melodies and the vamps are reasonably memorable. Cobham also takes an unaccompanied drum solo on "Storm." Worth searching for by fusion collectors. ~ Scott Yanow

| | Mountain Nantucket Sleighride CD (1971) Bonus Track; Remastered
Crosswinds songs
$7.59
Following the success of Climbing! and appearances at Woodstock and other outdoor festivals of the day, Mountain recorded more of the same for Nantucket Sleighride. The title track is a nice mixture of classical-leaning intertwined with moderate rock; both "Don't Look Around" and "The Animal Trainer and the Toad" continue on the hard rock path so well-worn by this band. Not groundbreaking, but it is well worth listening to. ~ James Chrispell

Betts's other contribution to IDLEWILD SOUTH is the instrumental "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed," a centerpiece of the Fillmore East recordings. Gregg's "Please Call Home" and "Midnight Rider" are built around piano and acoustic guitar, respectively, and have a different feel than the band's usual twin Les Paul-and-Hammond sound. That sound is showcased in the balance of Gregg's tunes, however: the funky blues of "Don't Leave Me Wonderin'" ...

The Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band's Dizzy's Business continues where 2002's Things to Come (credited to the Dizzy Gillespie Alumni All-Stars) left off. Gone is the fabulous trumpeter Jon Faddis, who also led that aggregation, but many of the other key players return, among them tenor saxman Jimmy Heath, baritone saxman Gary Smulyan, alto saxmen/flutists Antonio Hart and Frank Wess, trombonists Jay Ashby and Douglas Purviance, trumpeters Greg Gisbert and Claudio Roditi, guitarist Marty Ashby, drummer Dennis Mackrel, and bassist John Lee (who co-produced with the Ashbys). This time around, the all-star cast boasts even greater star power, however, with the additions of James Moody on tenor sax, flute and vocals, Randy Brecker ...
