| Memphis Stomp, 1927-1930 CD (1999)
QRS Recordings, Vol. 1
$15.95
This CD has 26 performances recorded by the Victor label during its "field trips" to Memphis, TN between 1927 and 1930. The program can easily be divided into three. Cornetist Charley Williamson and pianist James Alston back singers Sadie McKinney and Arah "Baby" Moore in addition to performing four numbers (plus four alternate takes) with Williamson's Beale Street Frolic Orchestra (a hot sextet). The Memphis Stompers (which a little later would be known as Snooks' Memphis Stompers) plays some fine numbers during 1928-1929. The CD concludes with the first two songs "("In Dat Mornin'"" and "Sweet Rhythm") released under Jimmie Lunceford's name; the nucleus of his successful orchestra was almost in place. Overall, these sessions cast some light on regional jazz of the late '20s and should delight '20s collectors. ~ Scott Yanow

| | Bob Kindred Gentle Giant Of The Tenor CD (2001)
QRS Recordings, Vol. 1
$14.49
Gentle Giant of the Tenor is an appropriate title for this 2001 date because Bob Kindred is a relatively gentle tenor man. The East Coast saxophonist (who spent many years in Philadelphia before moving to New York) is a very melodic player, and he doesn't go out of his way to be aggressive. While the gentle Stan Getz is among Kindred's influences, Kindred doesn't fall into the cool jazz category. This is essentially a hard bop CD, and Kindred has a bigger tone than Getz, even though there are elements of Getz in his sound. Further, Kindred's phrasing also owes a lot to Ben Webster, who wasn't cool-toned but was quite lyrical. And the word lyrical certainly describes Kindred's performances on Gentle Giant of the Tenor, which contains a series of intimate duets with pianist Larry Willis. No bass or drums are heard on this CD; Kindred's tenor and Willis' acoustic piano are the only instruments, and that intimate setting serves them well ...

QRS Recordings, Vol. 1
$14.39
This is a dream date, and unlike most dream dates this one works. Saxophonists Wally Shoup and Paul Flaherty have so much in common. They share a raw delivery of emotion, a passion that sets their free improvising on fire, and a history of dwelling in the shadows of American improv for way too long. Prior to this live date, they were both engaged in a revitalization of their careers -- or was it simply that their music was finally falling into the right ears? Flaherty had released important albums on Boxholder, Ecstatic Yod, and his own brand-new label, Wet Paint. Shoup was about to have a fresh session released on the influential label Leo. And here they are sharing the stage at Tonic in New York City, pushing each other into a blowout contest of epic proportions. Between their towering ...
