Peter White Good Day CD (2009)

Soundpost CD music

$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 all these years. ...

Tommy Flanagan Tokyo Recital CD (1975)

Soundpost music CDs

$9.89

Recorded in Tokyo, Japan on February 15, 1975. Includes liner notes by Benny Green. Digitally remastered by Phil De Lancie (1992, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California). When this set was recorded, pianist Tommy Flanagan had spent so much time as Ella Fitzgerald's accompanist (the past seven years, plus two before that) that many jazz followers had forgotten how strong a soloist he was. In a trio with bassist Keter Betts and drummer Bobby Durham on this straight CD reissue of a former LP, Flanagan is heard in superior form. He interprets a full set of Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn-associated songs. Highlights include "U.M.M.G. (Upper Manhattan Medical Group)," "Main Stem," "Chelsea Bridge," ...

Peter Erskine Lava Jazz CD (1998)

Soundpost songs

$12.89

Drummer and Fuzzy Music label owner Peter Erskine has formed a unique trio with saxophonist Bob Sheppard and bassist Dave Carpenter that captures a whimsical zeal often missing in "serious" jazz. Billing themselves The Lounge Art Ensemble (an oxymoron in itself), the disc the three created, LAVA JAZZ, is an intriguing performance by a close knit unit of veteran jazzers who are out to have a great time and, most of all, make it swing. In their own words, this album "celebrates the spirit of American song and swing." In this enterprise, all three members have taken favorite American standards and composed wonderful new melodies on top of them. Therefore, "Pennies From Heaven" has become Carpenter's swinging "Pesos," "You Stepped Out Of A Dream" is Sheppard's romping "You Stepped In" and "I Hear a Rhapsody" has been transformed into the shadowy "I Hear A Rap CD." Erskine's original "Cats & Kittens" is of particular note for it's great New Orleans second line groove. As an extra treat, Erskine plays the entire disc on a unique set of drums known as a "cocktail kit," on which he performs masterfully. saxophonist Bob Sheppard, bassist Dave Carpenter & cocktail drumkit player Peter Erskine unite to celebrate the spirit ...
