| | Marco Eneidi Creative Music Orchestra CD Marco Eneidi Discography of CDs
Altoist Marco Eneidi and tenor saxophonist Glenn Spearman in 1995 led the Creative Music Orchestra, a very crowded 21-piece orchestra also including two violins, two basses, two drummers/percussionists, two trumpets, three other tenors, two altos, three clarinets, two guitars, and one piano. On this CD they record the six-part "American Jungle Suite." Four of the movements are by Eneidi, one is by Spearman, and one piece is borrowed from Cecil Taylor. The music is unremittingly atonal, often quite dense and ferocious. The musicians (which mix together a few veterans with many younger players) handle the difficult music quite well although all but the most open-eared jazz collectors might find some of the more intense passages almost unlistenable. This set does grow in interest with each listen. ~ Scott YanowOption (11-12/97, pp.93-94) - "...this is one large ensemble that certainly plays to the stars."

Creative Music Orchestra music CDs
$15.05 Orchestral and choral arrangements of rock songs have been a curious subgenre ever since the mid-'60s when Andrew Loog Oldham arranged The Rolling Stones Songbook for syrupy strings, but The Kinks Choral Collection stands apart from the pack for the simple reason that it's not the project of some associate or admirer, but rather chief Kink Ray Davies. His very presence as arranger and lead vocal means The Kinks Choral Collection isn't nearly as stuffy ...

Herb Alpert was still using an array of SoCal studio all-stars as his Tijuana Brass when South of the Border (1964) began to restore the combo's good name after the modest Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass, Vol. 2 (1963) failed to ignite a fire in listener's ears. In his essay accompanying Shout! Factory's 2005 Signature Series reissue of South of the Border, Alpert comments that the Sol Lake composition "Mexican Shuffle" "opened a new door for me." That passageway ...

| | Steve Lacy Snips: Live At Environ CDs (2000)
Creative Music Orchestra songs
$17.55 Recorded live at Environ, New York, New York on May 16, 1976. Includes liner notes by Giles Laheurte.
Even the most experienced jazz listener might find the idea of over 80 minutes of unaccompanied soprano saxophone a bit daunting. But this is a vital historical document, as it captures the enigmatic Steve Lacy in a 1976 solo concert at Environ, a now-defunct Manhattan loft. Audience and ambient noises make it onto the recording, but these flaws make the loft concert atmosphere more vivid and distract only minimally from the focal point of Lacy's instrument.
Lacy breaks into vocalizations at certain points, as on the opening "Hooky" in which he repeatedly intones "don't go to school" and then uses the phrase as a basis for melodic invention. Similarly, he mouths a Buddhist chant intermittently during the course of the "Four Edges" suite, again using the rhythmic pattern of the phrase as a basis for improvisation.

| | Charles Mingus In Paris: The Complete America Session CDs (2006)
Creative Music Orchestra album
$17.35 The music on Charles Mingus' In Paris: The Complete America Session originally appeared on two separate LPs issued by America which were duly reissued by several labels as Reincarnation of a Lovebird (though not to be confused with the earlier album of the same title made for Candid). After a five-year layoff from doing any studio recording, Mingus was fully prepared for this 1970 session, with old hands Jaki Byard on piano, drummer Dannie Richmond, alto saxophonist Charles McPherson, and newer additions Bobby Jones (tenor sax), and Eddie Preston (trumpet) making up his sextet. Most of the focus is on extended treatments of earlier works, including "Reincarnation of a Lovebird," "Pithecanthropus Erectus," and "Peggy's Blue Skylight," plus a loping, bluesy rendition of Charlie Parker's "Blue Bird" that lasts 18 ...
