Pianist Kenny Werner is a wonderful improviser, who generally releases noteworthy solo recordings. Besides stints as an educator and author, Werner is also recognized as a first-call session musician. On this 2002 release, recorded live at a Paris club, the pianist and his young rhythm section add spice and verve to the commonalities often witnessed in modern jazz piano trio fare. Here, they meld ebullience and panache with a hip outlook amid cleverly articulated choruses. Werner is a supreme melodicist who fuses delicate voicings with furiously executed single-note runs and sweeping arpeggios. Nonetheless, the band conveys an obvious comfort zone on this superb effort. They extol the virtues of jazz via radiant hard bop motifs while having a little fun with rock-funk grooves. Part of the excitement resides within Werner and bassist Johannes Weidenmueller's shrewd harmonic episodes while drummer Ari Hoenig effectively maintains the sinuous ebb and flow. The musicians are liable to reconfigure themes in concert with a few unanticipated shifts in strategy. A memorable set, indeed! Zealously recommended. ~ Glenn Astarita Kenny Werner Beat Generation Songs Beat Generation Review

This exceptionally long two-record set seems to prove two things: the family can jam (sometimes to the extent that you ask yourself what the point is), and Nelson seems to be bored with some of his own material. Instead of singing, he talks his way through the songs. If you need this to fill out the collection, that's one thing. If you want to hear him do these songs, look for the studio albums. ~ Jim Worbois
Recorded at Lake Tahoe in 1978, WILLIE AND FAMILY LIVE effectively documents the laid-back, freewheeling approach Nelson and his band take to live performances. Unlike many country acts that strive to play the same set with the same note-for-note precision every night, Nelson's band prefers to live on the edge, wringing surprises out of every note and beat. This "free jam" aesthetic explains why Nelson is popular among Grateful Dead fans, and aficionados of this musical approach will be most likely to enjoy WILLIE AND FAMILY LIVE.
The album, which clocks in at over ninety minutes, contains some instances of frustrating off-handedness (Nelson occasionally sings indifferently) ...
