Purchase Madison Time CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Jackie McLean Long Drink Of The Blues CD (1957)
Madison Time album
$9.69 This CD reissue begins with what is titled "Take 1" of "A Long Drink of the Blues." After a false start, the musicians argue for two minutes about the tempo; why was this ever released? "Take 2" is a much more successful 20-minute jam featuring Jackie McLean (doubling on alto and tenor), trombonist Curtis Fuller, trumpeter Webster Young, pianist Gil Coggins, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Louis Hayes. The second half of this reissue is from a quartet session that showcases McLean on three standard ballads with pianist Mal Waldron, bassist Arthur Phipps, and drummer Art Taylor. Although not quite as intense as ...
| | Red Garland Stretching Out: Satin Doll/Lil' Darlin' CD (2002)
Madison Time CD music
$9.89 STRETCHING OUT contains 2 LPs on 1 CD: SATIN DOLL (1959)/LIL' DARLIN' (1959).
When it comes to Red Garland's history as a recording artist, there is good news and bad news. First, the bad news: Garland spent most of the '60s in semi-retirement and didn't get into the studio at all from 1963-1969. Now, the good news: Prestige and its various subsidiaries documented Garland extensively in the late '50s and early '60s. During that period, the influential pianist recorded about 25 sessions as a leader -- and that isn't counting all the Prestige releases that feature him as a sideman. Fantasy, which owns the Prestige catalog, has generally been good about reissuing Garland's work. Assembled by Fantasy in 2002, this 70-minute CD draws on two LPs that Garland recorded in 1959: Satin Doll and Lil' Darlin'. Garland's Prestige output was impressively consistent, and Stretching Out finds him in fine form on both live and studio material. The studio tracks (which include George Gershwin's "The Man I Love" and Duke Ellington's "Satin Doll") were recorded in Rudy Van Gelder's famous New Jersey location, while the live performances are from an October 2, 1959, appearance at the Prelude in New York's Harlem section. That same Prelude gig is the focus of Fantasy's 77-minute CD At the Prelude, Vol. 1 -- Garland ...
| | Gerry Mulligan Meets Johnny Hodges CD (1960) Remastered; Digipak
Madison Time music CDs
$9.89 Gerry Mulligan's 1959 studio date with Johnny Hodges is one of the most satisfying sessions of his various meetings with different saxophonists for Verve, yet it was inexplicably the last to be made available on CD. With a hand-picked rhythm section consisting of pianist Claude Williamson, bassist Buddy Clark, and drummer Mel Lewis, and three originals contributed by each of the two leaders, everything gels nicely, though several tracks took more than three takes (in spite of liner note writer Nat Hentoff's assertions) to reach their final form. Mulligan contributed the gorgeous ballad "What's the Rush" (where he sat back to enjoy Hodges' solo and never plays his own horn), the easygoing swinger "Bunny," and the brisk cooker "18 Carrots (For Rabbit)," the latter which its composer would revisit with his Concert Jazz Band. The veteran alto saxophonist contributed the low-key ballad "Shady Side," the sassy blues "Back Beat" (later re-recorded by Hodges during a still unreleased 1960 ...
| | Frank Wess Quartet CD (1960)
Madison Time songs
$8.49 Frank Wess has long been one of the most underrated flautists in jazz, but it's his primary instrument on this CD reissue of a Moodsville LP recorded in 1960. With fine accompaniment by piano master Tommy Flanagan, bassist Eddie Jones and drummer Bobby Donaldson, the leader's lyrical chops are evident in Alec Wilder's rarely performed ballad "It's So Peaceful in the Country." The light Latin setting of "Star Eyes" initially spotlights Flanagan's elegant piano, with the rhythm switching gears as Wess works his magic on flute. Flanagan alone introduces the dreamy interpretation of "But Beautiful," while Wess will melt any heart with his gorgeous flute solo. Wess is best known for his swinging tenor saxophone, heard on the richly textured "Gone With ...

| | Bobby Hutcherson Oblique CD (1967) Remastered
Madison Time CD music
$8.09 Bobby Hutcherson's second quartet session, Oblique, shares both pianist Herbie Hancock and drummer Joe Chambers with his first, Happenings (bassist Albert Stinson is a newcomer). However, the approach is somewhat different this time around. For starters, there's less emphasis on Hutcherson originals; he contributes only three of the six pieces, with one from Hancock and two from the typically free-thinking Chambers. And compared to the relatively simple compositions and reflective soloing on Happenings, Oblique is often more complex in its post-bop style and more emotionally direct (despite what the title may suggest). The latter is especially true on the two opening Hutcherson pieces, the sweetly lilting "'Til Then" and the innocent, childlike theme of "My Joy," which is reminiscent of "Little B's Poem" (save for its multi-sectioned structure). Meanwhile, Chambers' experiments with counterpoint in the context of group improvisation keep getting more evocative. The title cut is quick and driving, with lots of short, fleeting exchanges between Hutcherson and a surprisingly swinging Hancock; "Bi-Sectional" ...
| | Singer Songwriters CD (2001)
Madison Time music CDs
$16.39 Singer Songwriters is a collection of artists that fit the title description, with the catch being that most of the performers are not that well known. The biggest name here is David Johansen, who is very far away from both his New York Dolls roots and his show-biz alternate identity, Buster Poindexter. His two contributions are both good but should never have been included considering he didn't write either of the songs, yet this is Singer Songwriters. In fact, Christy Baron and Rebecca Pidgeon are also guilty of this, which makes the name of the album that much more meaningless. ...

| | Mara Levi What Are You? CD (2007)
Madison Time album
$13.29 What Are You? is Mara Levi's second solo album, following the success of her solo debut, Life's a Ball. Mara's second solo CD is a departure from the style of her first solo release. Intentionally eclectic, the album and its title directly confront the notion that anyone can be easily defined, or that people should be expected to have an answer to the question, "What Are You?" Mara recorded every track on the album from her home in DC, using only instruments that she could play herself. The result is an album that sounds less like top-40 radio, and more like a reflection of Mara's varied musical interests. Many of the background vocals were arranged to mimic ...
