| | Ted Des Plantes Ain't Cha' Got Music CD Ted Des Plantes Discography of CDs
Pianist Ted Des Plantes pays tribute to trumpeter Henry "Red" Allen on this well-conceived and consistently exciting set. Trumpeter Chris Tyle does an excellent job of emulating Allen, and the supporting cast includes a couple players from Banu Gibson's band (Tom Fischer on clarinet and tenor, and trombonist David Sager) plus clarinetist Barry Wratten, banjoist John Gill, Tom Saunders doubling on bass and tuba, and drummer Hal Smith. There are five vocals (four by Tyle and one from Smith), but these are brief and fit well into the music. The repertoire is particularly inspired -- all songs that Allen recorded during 1929-37, many of which are both hot and quite obscure. Among the highlights are "Get Rhythm in Your Feet," "On Treasure Island," "I Wish I Were Twins," two versions of "When My Dreamboat Comes Home," "Algiers Stomp," and the title cut. Highly recommended to trad jazz fans. ~ Scott Yanow

How a good-looking Jewish boy from Brooklyn discovered the secret of success in an updated form of mariachi music is perhaps beyond our scope. Then again, it might not be such a mystery after all. Aside from the obvious example of exotica, much easy listening depends upon more than a touch of ethnicity to maintain its musical roots. What Herb Alpert found in Mexican street bands was a previously untapped source of south-of-the-border melody and rhythm. With its unlikely combination of Alpert's cool Chet Baker-like trumpet and the blocky cadences of a marching band, the Tijuana Brass produced a lively, colorful mix that managed to appeal to hips and squares alike.

Ain't Cha' Got Music CD music
$9.95
When bandleader Stan Kenton was approached to record an album of holiday music in 1961 he agreed, on one condition -- no songs about singing snowmen or flying reindeer. The resulting album, A Merry Christmas, is a polyphonic masterpiece that is at once progressive and traditional. Included are such well-known classics as "O Tannenbaum" and "The Twelve Days of Christmas" as well as lesser known gems like "The Holly and the Ivy" and "Once in Royal David's City." Featuring Kenton's idiosyncratic style of arranging piercing trumpets over a wooly blanket of trombones and mellophones, ...

LIFE AFTER DEATH was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Rap Album. "Hypnotize" was nominated for a 1988 Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance. "Mo Money Mo Problems" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group.
The double-CD LIFE AFTER DEATH arrives in stores, ironically and tragically, less than three weeks after the Notorious B.I.G. was killed in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles. Biggie Smalls, as he was known, quickly became one of rap's most respected MCs after the 1994 release of his debut album, READY TO DIE. His music sparked the comeback of East Coast hip-hop, while his very being added fire to rap's over-publicized East-West rivalry. For some (see "Playa Hater"), Biggie's success was too much to handle, and he became a primary target in hip-hop's continuing ...
