| | Juicy It Takes Two CD Juicy Discography of CDs
Jerry and Katreese Barnes' second album as Juicy has a handful of spectacular songs that exemplify the heavily synthesized mid-'80s R&B sound. Though "Sugar Free," a not-so-distant descendent of Mtume's "Juicy," was the only one to put a truly significant dent on the chart, the album is rather solid from front to back. Each of the eight songs is directed at a "you," with Katreese's vocal turns coming out ahead of her brother's. Eumir Deodato's sensitive production is bright and pliable, full of echo-y machine beats, zipping synthesizers, and all sorts of sparkly effects. It Takes Two only falters during those brief moments that are interrupted by heavy rock guitars. ~ Andy Kellman
Personnel: Jerry Barnes (vocals, guitar, keyboards, drum programming); Katreese Barnes (vocals, saxophone, keyboards, drum programming).

| | John Coltrane Coltrane's Sound CD (1960) (Import) Japan; Mini LP Sleeve
It Takes Two
$31.79
The October 1960 sessions which comprise COLTRANE'S SOUND present a portrait of the John Coltrane Quartet in its infancy, yet many of the mature elements which were to distinguish the group during its primacy are already in place. COLTRANE'S SOUND was among the last releases to emerge from his Atlantic sessions, but, in some ways, it's among the most satisfying.
John Coltrane's search for the ideal rhythm section coincided with his transition from hard bop to the emerging modal stylings first suggested by Miles Davis on KIND OF BLUE. Elvin Jones' polyrhythmic inventions exploited the tension between triplets and eighth notes, and with his unique cymbal sound and powerful technique, Jones perfected a new rhythmic style of phrasing. Pianist McCoy Tyner offered a rich harmonic palette and a supple lyric dimension. He was able to play convincingly in hard bop and ballad modes, yet he also understood how to reinforce Elvin Jones' rhythmic ideas and feed ...
| | John Andrew Parks Stargazer CD (2006)
It Takes Two
$16.39
John Andrew Parks (by Robert Morgan Fisher)He’s the seven-pound star sapphire you find hidden among the boulders in your backyard. The lost Picasso someone’s trying to unload at a garage sale. The rare coin jingling among the change in your pocket. When I first saw him live, he was performing solo with his guitar. To say that it was a great musical performance is a vast understatement. This was high theatre. Along with a voice that soars like an eagle bound for the distant stars, this man will prove to be one of the important poet/storytellers of our time. His connection with the audience was uncanny. To quote one critic, “The breath of the audience came to a halt, and that’s when I heard my own heart beating”. The act was filled with humor, pathos and the rhythm of a steam locomotive. It went from a Texas style bluster, bigger than life, to an intimate whisper that evoked some third, unseen entity seeming to sew us all together into one pulsating spirit. It was unique. Without a doubt, this gentleman was born to perform.John Andrew’s early mentors were Roy Orbison and Marty Robbins, both storytellers and extraordinary singers. He had also been influenced by, and worked with, some of the great film score composers such as John Barry, not to mention his classical mentors. In his productions, you can hear a unique sonic style. A master lyricist, he starts by complementing his stories with signature phrasing in a dramatic three-octave range. However, as though that were not enough, John Andrew shifts into a seventh gear, using his skills in musical composition to turn each and every song into a miniature movie. He was once dubbed “The King of Country Eastern” due to the broad stroke of his brush. I can understand this point of view. His story lines run from windblown prairies and old jalopies to shooting stars across the cosmic canvas. As Kenny Rogers once said on NBC Television, “Whether or not you like this song [Planet Texas], you have never heard a song like ‘this’ one before. John Andrew Parks is one of the greatest singer/songwriting talents I’ve heard in 20 years.”Well that should be enough for now, but let me leave you with this one interesting anecdote: When John Andrew was once asked if he was concerned about falling between the cracks, he replied in his Texas drawl, “S**t-Fire! What are you talking about? I shoot for the cracks, that’s where all the flowers grow.”BIO:John Andrew Parks was born in Dallas, Texas. He picked up his first guitar when he was three and started performing in first grade. He formed his first band in Jr. High ...
