| | Oregon Beyond Words Super-Audio CD Oregon Discography of CDs
With its combination of simple beauty and elegant intricacy, Oregon's Beyond Words truly is. This time out, the three surviving original members of Oregon perform as a drummerless trio, handling a variety of compositions old and new, primarily from the pen of Ralph Towner. Towner's multi-instrumental versatility highlights and undergirds the proceedings, with his beautiful classical and 12-string guitar work especially satisfying. Paul McCandless delivers his usual flawless performance on an amazing variety of woodwinds. The interplay between his bass clarinet and Glen Moore's restored 1715 Klotz bass is superb on "Pepé Linque" and "Sicilian Walk." Towner's classic "The Silence of a Candle," first recorded on the landmark Icarus with the Paul Winter Consort, is reprised here, as are several other Oregon standards, including "Witchi-Tai-To." The only weak moments come in the set-closing "Silver Suite," which meanders aimlessly at times. Other than that, this is an album filled with gorgeous, multi-dimensional music played by a trio of inspired virtuosos. ~ Jim Newsom

Beyond Words album
 $16.05 
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
From his revolutionary work with John Coltrane's classic quartet to his multi-hued solo career, McCoy Tyner is the most influential living jazz pianist of the modern era. Distinctive chord voicings, insightful solos and a neo-classical approach to the instrument have earned him accolades and a devoted following for more than 40 years.
On this buoyant and mostly acoustic trio outing, he's matched with two other jazz luminaries: trailblazing fusion bassist and Return To Forever co-founder Stanley Clarke, and ubiquitous drummer Al Foster. Their exhilarating and dynamic post-bop ...

Beyond Words album
$16.39
This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players.
Wayne Shorter has written a number of landmark jazz compositions that have found favor among fellow jazz musicians, but Mysterious Shorter marks a rare occasion when an entire CD is devoted to his music. Trumpeter Nicholas Payton heads a strong quintet, including saxophonist Bob Belden (who doubles on soprano and tenor saxes, like Shorter, and contributed all of the arrangements), organist Sam Yahel, guitarist John Hart, and drummer Billy Drummond. Since six of the eight songs are from Shorter's early Blue Note CDs prior to his move toward fusion, the substitution of Yahel's laid-back organ ...

| | Eden Atwood This Is Always: Ballad Session (2004) Super Audio CD
Beyond Words music CDs
$26.49  
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
Eden Atwood exhibits a confidence that few jazz vocalists of her generation seem to have in standards. While others seem to be opting for lightweight rock hits from the 1970s and 1980s, Atwood is able to find new approaches to old chestnuts that seem to be overlooked in the early 21st century. She shines in pianist Bill Cunliffe's loping arrangement of "Without a Song." Atwood restores the frequently omitted verse to "This Is Always," then steps back to feature Tom Harrell's brilliant, fragile trumpet, while conveying the lyrics with a sincerity that few singers seem able to convey. "Blame It on My Youth" is a powerful performance. She sings the verse unaccompanied, with bassist Darek Oleszkiewicz joining her afterward as her sole backing, then Harrell's emotional trumpet takes her place to wrap it. Cunliffe's piano playing in "Deep Purple" is a throwback to an earlier era, as Atwood captures the nuances of this gem. But it is hard to surpass her moving rendition of "You Leave Me Breathless." Atwood and her musicians are clearly having ...
