Time To Play Music music CDs
$14.95 Many people think of smooth jazz as something that didn't start until the 1980s, but arguably, smooth jazz started around 1966-1968 with the overtly commercial, pop-drenched albums that guitarist Wes Montgomery recorded during the last few years of his life. Love it or hate it, Montgomery's more commercial output had a major impact on Peter White and many other guitarists who have contributed to smooth jazz (including George Benson, Lee Ritenour, Earl Klugh, Chuck Loeb, and Henry Johnson). Musically, a lot has changed since the '60s, but the more things change in music, the more they inevitably stay the same -- and 2009 found White (like Montgomery 41, 42, and 43 years earlier) still struggling with a desire to improvise and a desire for mass acceptance (the thing that jazz, for the most part, lost after World War II). Of course, one doesn't necessarily rule out the another; the late saxophonist Grover Washington, Jr. knew how to be commercial and adventurous at the same time, but most smooth jazz artists play it way too safe -- which is what White usually does on Good Day. This 2009 release is, on the whole, an album of pleasant but not very memorable background music; White usually sounds like he is yearning to let loose as an improviser but has to hold back because he dare not offend the smooth jazz/NAC stations that have been playing his recordings ...
| | Tord Gustavsen Ground CD (2005)
Time To Play Music songs
$14.05 In the proto-typical Scandinavian ECM style of modern jazz oriented music, pianist Tord Gustavsen follows the path of previous progenitors influenced by Bill Evans, forged by Keith Jarrett, and extended by the likes of Mike Nock. This is certainly late-night, nocturnal music, completely reserved and relaxing, ultra-melodic, calm, peaceful, and non-threatening. Rarely does a tempo move beyond medium, a dynamic merge above mezzo piano, and any mood goes farther than moderately cool. Well within this consistent timbre, Gustavsen and his trio show a modicum of diversity and influences. Fellow ECM labelmate Bobo Stenson's style and technique is most extant during the lilting "Edges of Happiness," "Twins" is spiritual, calm, and light but not somber, while "Token of Tango" is perfectly representative of its title. "Curtains Aside" mixes march rhythm in 6/8 with a regal light funk, the delicate waltz ...

| | Diana Krall When I Look In Your Eyes CD (1998)
Time To Play Music CD music
$11.15 WHEN I LOOK IN YOUR EYES won the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance and for Best Engineered Album, Non Classical. WHEN I LOOK IN YOUR EYES was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Album Of The Year.
WHEN I LOOK IN YOUR EYES, a 1999 Verve release, heralds the return of the cool and groovy Latin-tinged jazz of the '60s. Upon hearing the opening track, a bossa-nova-fied version of Irving Berlin's "Let's Face The Music And Dance," one might think he had accidentally put on a Getz/Gilberto record. In fact, it's hard to avoid comparing Krall's breathy alto to that of Astrud Gilberto-particularly on the more samba-flavored numbers.
But Krall ultimately resists comparisons. Her simultaneously textured and smooth tone, warm timbre, and conversational phrasing mark her as unique. The set of standards here, including "Let's Fall In Love," "I've Got You Under My Skin," and "Pick Yourself Up" among others, is enhanced by fine session musicians and Johnny Mandel's tasteful arrangements. While Krall ...

| | Walt Weiskopf Siren CD (2000)
Time To Play Music songs
$15.05 Siren is Walt Weiskopf's second nonet project for Criss Cross since 1995's Song for My Mother. Joining the tenor saxophonist again are Jim Snidero on alto, Anders Bostrom on flute, Scott Robinson on bari sax and bass clarinet, Joe Magnarelli on trumpet, and Conrad Herwig on trombone. Pianist Joel Weiskopf, bassist Doug Weiss, and drummer Billy Drummond make up the rhythm section.
Weiskopf's arrangements are lush and well-crafted, especially on the ballad "Close Your Eyes," the artless and brief reading of "Baby Won't You Please Come Home," and the evocative waltz "Night in Ferrara." The flame is turned up on the burning "Zone" and Snidero's 6/8 hard bop chart "In a Daze." Bostrom's alto flute solo on the breezily swinging title track is one of the album's best moments. Snidero's alto sax on the same cut brings to mind Cannonball Adderley's solo on the Miles Davis classic "So What."
Weiskopf's tenor playing is fiery and inspired, and his fellow soloists are incredible, but one almost wishes there were more adventurous writing of the sort heard on the cryptic opening track, "Glass Eye," which fades out at just under two minutes. ~ David R. Adler
On Walt's 6th Criss Cross release, he serves up material ripe ...
