When one considers that the musicians on this quartet date are each associated, to an extent, with the New Orleans Young Lions and modern jazz movements, this music is rather surprising. There are no hints of parade rhythms; instead the result is a modern form of cool jazz. Bassist Neal Caine, who wrote all of the selections which sport original chord changes, keeps the group under tight control, although there are individual heroics and a few brief explosive moments. The tenors of Ned Goold and Stephen Riley have similar tones and styles, while Riley occasionally switches to alto clarinet for variety. Drummer Jason Marsalis is pretty laid-back for the most part, except for a few moments. This music has similarities to the type of cool jazz heard in Sweden in the 1950s although it is not an exact duplicate of anything. The "Intro," "Outro" and three "W M D Interludes" make the set unfold like a suite, and it holds one's interest throughout. Neal Caine's Backstabber's Ball is an excellent and fresh example of modern swinging jazz. ~ Scott Yanow
If you ask Neal Caine about his musical background, you won't get much of an answer at first. What would be the point? Where others might recite credentials and degrees, Neal just shrugs it off. To the rest of the world it seems that after being born in St. Louis in 1973, Neal just emerged full-blown at age 20, joining Elvin Jones band in 1994, where he played for three years alongside the grand master in a position formerly occupied by the late Jimmy Garrison. But he even shrugs that off. He's not trying to be mysterious. Better for the music to speak for itself each time out. Lest anyone think getting there is easy, though, it's best to point out that Neal began on the Suzuki Method at age 3, and has been making music since. By the time he arrived at Tulane in 1991 to study political science, he was already good enough as a bassist to be popular among musicians on the New Orleans scene, playing with Nicholas Payton, Ellis Marsalis, Brian Blade, and Donald Harrison, among others. Since his career-making stint with the Elvin Jones band, he's been the top pick on bass among vocal stars, spending a year with Betty Carter, a year with Diana Krall, and in the past few years as the driving pulse of the Harry Connick Jr. orchestra.Touring frequently brought Neal to establish a kind of dual residency between New York and New Orleans, and he has thus been a strong presence on both scenes for some time. On breaks, Neal would often end up working at Smalls. Being the sideman the cats wanted to get when they could, he ended up working often with the Smalls regulars including Gregory Tardy, ...

Helen Merrill's long history in jazz began with her first album on the Mercury Emarcy label arranged and produced by Quincy Jones in 1954 up to her latest CD album released in early 2000. In between were more then 50 Jazz albums and countless concerts, club dates, festivals and other jazz activities. Ms. Merrill was born in New York City. Her parents were Croatian immigrants and her most recent recording is titled "Jelena Ana Milcetic, AKA Helen Merrill" tracing her musical experience. She started her career at the 845 club in the Bronx wile still in high school. The promoter at the club was noted for his ability to spot young future stars. Among these appearing with Helen at the time were Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell, Oscar Pettiford, and numerous others. The name on the marquee was Helen Milcetic, her name which she later changed to Merrill. Ms. Merrill entered the world of music just as the big band era was ending and the much more challenging field of working with small groups had begun. During these formative years she worked with Earl Hines, Charles Mingus, Thad Jones, Clifford Brown, Gil Evans, Charlie Byrd, Marian McPartland, Al Haig, Jim Hall, Elvin Jones, Ron Carter, Bill Evans, Stan Getz, and literally hundreds of other musicians. Although she has made a large number of jazz albums and knows her way around recording studios in the United States, Japan and Europe, Ms. Merrill's recording career began in a non-commercial atmosphere in the now famous Rudy Van Gelder studio in New Jersey. She was accompanied by Jimmy Rainey, Don Elliot and Red Mitchell. The result was a single that eventually led to a contract with Mercury. Without much fanfare, Mercury released a jazz album titled simply "Helen Merrill" It was an instant success and has remained so to this day, more then 45 years later. The album, including one of the most acclaimed versions of the song, "What's new?" has been reissued and repackaged scores of times on various labels ...
