Marty Ehrlich has long been one of the most versatile horn players in the avant-garde and post-bop jazz world. On this set, Ehrlich mostly sticks to alto sax other than a few pieces on bass clarinet. None of his eight originals are destined to become standards for they lack memorable melodies, but they are effective at setting moods and challenging the players. The interplay between Ehrlich and pianist Craig Taborn is consistently impressive, and both bassist Michael Formanek and drummer Billy Drummond constantly react to Taborn's ideas. The music is complex, but due to the close communication between the players the results are fairly accessible and often stimulating. ~ Scott Yanow

Line On Love album
$15.19 On Quake, downtown cello boss Erik Friedlander teams up with Japan's fraternal rhythm section the Takeishi brothers (Stomu and Satoshi on bass and drums, respectively) as well as alto saxophonist Andy Laster for a date of intimate, knotty new jazz. In working with an electric bassist in this setting, the opportunities for unique tonalities are everywhere and are exploited to some degree as they were on an earlier work, The Watchman. Over the years, however, Friedlander has become a composer of interesting ensembles and Quake's is no exception. What is so remarkable about the performances on this recording are details such as counterpoint; on the opener, Laster and Stomu have equal opportunities to engage Friedlander and each other for a knotty, but exhilarating, ride. On the erratically paced and wonderfully breathless "Wire," Friedlander brings shades of different jazz eras and styles to comprise the body of the composition while intense harmonic invention takes places in each musician's solo. The title cut uses Israeli folk themes to construct an ebb-and-flow narrative statement that engages elements of modal jazz, post-bop, klezmer, smoky, simmering funk, ...
| | Paul Brody Beyond Babylon CD (2004)
Line On Love CD music
$13.35 On his second album fronting his band Sadawi, trumpeter and composer Paul Brody continues his work in the avant-klezmer trenches, helping to drag that hundred-year-old music kicking and screaming into the 21st century. On Beyond Babylon he shows his unwillingness to be constrained by any ghetto boundaries, opening the album with an extended deconstruction of the Shaker hymn "Simple Gifts" (which features a hair-raisingly skronky banjo solo by Brandon Seabrook), and making use of elements of both dub (on the contemplative and lovely "Timepeace"), and rock (note the guitar parts on "Fragment of Kafka's Friend") as well as lots and lots of modern jazz. Most of the album is thrilling; Brody's take on the David Krakauer composition "Klezmer à la Bechet" is a joyful romp in five/four meter, "Glass Dance" is a masterful ...
| | Paul Motian I Have The Room Above Her CD (2005)
Line On Love music CDs
$14.79 To put drummer Paul Motian, guitarist Bill Frisell, and saxophonist Joe Lovano in a room together is to court majesty and genius; even if the three were playing hackneyed standards half-asleep, the results would likely be brilliant. I HAVE THE ROOM ABOVE HER is filled with the kind of technical mastery and scintillating chemistry one would expect from a trio this accomplished and advanced. Frisell's electric guitar spins choral ...

| | Mal Waldron Mal-1 CD (1956)
Line On Love music CDs
$9.89 Digitally remastered from the original analog master tapes by Phil De Lancie (1991, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley).
This 1956 release was the first of Waldron's four "Mal" titles (MAL-1, MAL-2, MAL-3, and MAL-4). At the time of these recordings Waldron was working as Billie Holiday's accompanist--he was her piano player for the last two years of her life, and, like the legendary singer, he uses dramatic understatement rather than overt flash.
This set is a mix of originals and standards. Jerome Kern's "Yesterdays" ...
| | Seamus Blake Echonomics CD (2001)
Line On Love songs
$14.55 Seamus Blake, one of our more adventurous young tenor saxophonists, assembles a strong quartet for this relatively mainstream Criss Cross date. Pianist David Kikoski and bassist Ed Howard worked together for many years in Roy Haynes' group. Drummer Victor Lewis mentored Blake when the young tenorist moved to New York. So, among the four players, there's a great deal of experience shared in common. Blake leads the foursome through three solid original tunes (including "Circle K," a cut from 2000's Sun Sol), a quietly inspired reading of Stephen Sondheim's "Children and Art," covers of Stevie Wonder's "Rain Your Love Down" and Brian Wilson's "God Only Knows," and a slow, foreboding take of "Why ...
