Featuring these top selling hits, 'Autumn Leaves', 'It Never Entered My Mind', & 'How Deep Is The Ocean'. Collectables. 2004.
Compilation producers: Ken Kahn, Pete Welding.
CEMA Special Markets' The Ballad Artistry of Miles Davis culls highlights from Davis' Capitol and Blue Note recordings, including "How Deep Is the Ocean?," "Venus de Milo," "It Never Entered My Mind," "Dear Old Stockholm," "Moon Dreams," "Autumn Leaves," "Yesterdays," and "I Waited for You." Jazz purists will have little interest in this, since they'll want the original sessions, but this is a good sampler for casual listeners who want the sweet, slow side of early Miles. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Miles Davis was one of jazz's great minimalists. Over the years, he refined his sound to the point where he could say more with a single note than with a series of phrases. Legend has it that when Coltrane inquired about a good way to end a solo, Miles replied "Take the horn out of your mouth, Trane." It's this sensibility that made Miles such a great ballad player.
Though in later years, he ventured into ballad format with less frequency, these earlier recordings find him fully willing to test the downtempo waters. The unhurried lyricism of his legato lines on "How Deep is the Ocean" is downright stirring. The perfect, angular phrases Miles lays down over the easy swing of "Israel" are the definition of taste. While some of the tunes here are a touch too fast to be technically considered ballads, this offbeat collection of Miles' more muted work offers a valuable glimpse at an important facet of his talent.

Audio Mixer: Erik Zobler.
Liner Note Author: Everette Harp.
On FIRST LOVE, contemporary jazz saxophonist and composer Everette Harp moves deeper into the space he addressed on 2007's excellent MY INSPIRATION. Produced by George Duke, the meld of acoustic and electric instruments here is perfectly balanced. Melodic and harmonic structures are much more complex and don't always fit the C-jazz cookie-cutter mold. Check his original "The Council of Nicea," one of the most satisfying things here. Harp's tenor is accompanied by James Genus' acoustic bass, and some spot-on breaks by Terri Lyne Carrington, a beautiful bluesy, hard bop trumpet solo by Michael "Patches" Stewart, and Lenny Castro's hand percussion. Directing the band is Duke on Fender ...

Ballad Artistry Of Miles Davis
$11.79
Budget priced Holland exclusive compilation featuring 18 tracks from Dutch artists such as The Outsiders, Q65, The Shoes, Ro-D-Ys, After Tea, Wally Tax, The Incrowd, Cuby + Blizzards, & many more. Universal. 2003.
Along with most of the free world, the mid- to late '60s were a fertile time for garage rock, beat music, and pyschedelia in Holland. Beat From Holland, Vol. 1 collects 18 prime cuts from this era. The disc kicks off with tracks by the two foremost practitioners of Dutch garage rock, the Outsiders and Q 65. The Outsiders track, "Daddy Died on a Saturday," is taken from their excellent 1968 album C.Q. and features the band at their most Kinks-like. The Q 65 track, "You're the Victor," is a pounding slice of punk blues featuring some truly unhinged vocals. The rest of the disc can't help but be a bit of a letdown, like finding the prize in your first handful of Cracker Jack. There are still some great songs though: Wally Tax's "You Don't Have to Tell Me" is a dramatic folk-rocker that shows a different side of the Outsiders' singer; the In-Crowd's "Have Dollar Man" is a spooky ballad with some creepy reverbed electric piano; the Golden Earrings' "Chunk of Steel" is an energetic British Invasion-styled rocker; and the Motions' "Take the Fast Train" is a weird mod/country-rock hybrid that is going to make you want to track down more material by them. Only a couple tracks are lousy. After Tea's "Peruquine Thomas" is an extremely twee psychedelic trifle that ...

Ballad Artistry Of Miles Davis
$13.59
Stompy Jones is the band formerly known as the Swing Session revisiting, as the liner notes declare, "the sounds and rhythms of the 1930's through the early 1950's." The third album released by this ensemble since 1999 (averaging one every two years), the self-titled Stompy Jones, is every bit as exciting and well-crafted as its predecessors, The Swing Session and Whispering Grass. Drummer Bowen Brown does a fab job of producing this period-piece-material recorded in April of 2003 at Bay Records in Berkeley, California. Bassist/vocalist Little David Rose puts together another exquisite package with his chores as art director and the pen behind the liners with commentary that is as fun to read as it is informative. There's nice tension in "That Wig a Gotta Go," one of the five Rose originals on this 17-selection disc, as dramatic as his "Can't Find My Baby" with its growling horn. Peter "Pops" Walsh is commanding in his new life as vocalist -- the extraordinary ...
