Purchase Arrival CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Mike Bloomfield Super Session CD (1968) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Arrival
 $6.75   
A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune").
All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals get off lots of good licks and producer Kooper has some interesting tricks up his sleeve, as in the over-the-top phasing he lavishes on "You Don't Love Me." The only real disappointment here is that Stills, a far better singer than Kooper, never opens his mouth.
Those familiar with the Live Adventures album these two recorded at the Fillmore West know how brilliant they could be on stage, and here's another gem, recorded at the Fillmore East ...

| | Everette Harp First Love CD (2009)
Arrival
$15.09
On FIRST LOVE, contemporary jazz saxophonist and composer Everette Harp moves deeper into the space he addressed on 2007's excellent MY INSPIRATION. Produced by George Duke, the meld of acoustic and electric instruments here is perfectly balanced. Melodic and harmonic structures are much more complex and don't always fit the C-jazz cookie-cutter mold. Check his original "The Council of Nicea," one of the most satisfying things here. Harp's tenor is accompanied by James Genus' acoustic bass, and some spot-on breaks by Terri Lyne Carrington, a beautiful bluesy, hard bop trumpet solo by ...

| | Dire Straits CD (1978) Remastered
Arrival
$8.65
Led by former music journalist/college professor Mark Knopfler, Dire Straits emerged with their melancholy self-titled debut amidst the clatter of punk and gloss of disco. With a laid-back, raspy style of singing and distinctive finger-picking style of guitar playing, Knopfler came across as a fusion of J.J. Cale, Bob Dylan, and Chet Atkins. Coming out of the pub-rock scene, this tight English quartet cracked both sides of the Atlantic with the insanely catchy "Sultans Of Swing." The group further enhanced their reputation with the ominously atmospheric opener "Down to the Waterline." Knopfler's finger-picking style gave his guitar a smooth, distinct tone that was a jazz-country hybrid ("Setting Me Up"), while utilizing fancy country plucking "Southbound Again."
Dire Straits' minimalistic interpretation of pub-rock had already crystallized by the time they released this album. Driven by Knopfler's spare, tasteful guitar lines and husky warbling, the album is a set of bluesy ...

| | Myracle Brah Treblemaker CD (2003)
Arrival
$12.89
Modern power pop bands are in a bit of a pickle. Like any revivalists, if they copy their idols note-perfectly people will say they are nothing but pale imitators. However, if they try to do something unique and stray too far from the self-imposed boundaries of their chosen subgenre, they will be ridiculed and considered traitors. It is a fine line a band has to walk, and Myracle Brah walks it as well as anyone has since the Posies. They combine tuneful melodies, crunching power chords, and high, harmonized vocals with restrained modern production and post-Nirvana drive to reach a listenable compromise between the past and the present. Their fifth album, Treblemaker, is as good as anything they have done. The best songs, like the tough album opener "This Is Where We Belong," the bopping Cheap Trick-inspired "Think About You," the new wave-ish "Runaway," and the anthemic "Climbing on a Star," are on par with the best of the Posies or Fountains of Wayne. They are climbing the pop underground ladder quickly and with vigor. Andy Bopp has dropped any remaining vocal affectations; he sounds less like John Lennon and more like some guy singing his guts out. ...
