Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars) 3 stars

3 stars Mostly for the JOS devotees
This CD has largely the same content as Daybreak (WestWind 2133) with Jimmy in an unusual interplay with flute-master Nestor Torres on most tracks and stallmate Phil Upchurch on some tracks. Nothing new with familiar tunes like Moanin', Satin Doll and Eight Counts for Rita - basic JOS organ groove on semi-automatic. By mistake the album sleeve indicates a bassist on 4 tracks - no elbass og doublebass can sound like organbass when Jimmy hits the pedals. Average album only for JOS devotees.

Among the most controversial recordings in the history of jazz, BITCHES BREW was Miles Davis' shot across the bow of jazz insularity, a bold statement about jazz's ability to draw upon elements of popular culture, without mitigating its spirit of spontaneous invention. Much as Ornette Coleman's THE SHAPE OF JAZZ TO COME set a new standard for harmonic and melodic freedom a decade before, BITCHES BREW signaled a sea change in jazz. Davis became a lightning rod for jazz's transformation, by mixing the best elements of '60s free jazz with dancing funk rhythms, electric rock textures, blues phrasing and his own breakthroughs in harmony and modality. Davis employed the Electric Flag's Harvey Brooks to double up with upright bassist Dave Holland on the Fender bass, and he is the modal heartbeat ...

Recorded between 1971 and 1998. Includes liner notes by Kevin Phinney. Over its 30-plus year existence, Oakland's Tower Of Power has established itself as the premiere bastion of true soul and funk in modern music. This ANTHOLOGY represents the best cuts from the group's long and storied history. Although founders Emilio Castillo and Stephen "Doc" Kupka have weathered almost as many personnel changes as years the band has survived, they have always stuck to their original brand of "funkifized" soul with emphasis on their world-famous horn section. With no signs of slowing down, it is evident that the milestone represented by this collection is only one of many more to come. From the early days of hits like "What is Hip" and "Down to the Nightclub," to later favorites like "Soul With a Capital 'S'" and "So I Got to Groove," Tower Of Power has never apologized for its unabashed continuation of the funk of James Brown. Added to this mix are the moving ballads like "You're Still a Young Man" and "Willing to Learn" that grabbed an even wider audience of R&B lovers. Other favorites included in this mammoth set are the ultra-funky "Soul Vaccination," the signature instrumental "Oakland Stroke," and the instant party classic "Souled Out." Additional personnel includes: Bud Shank ...

Black Cat songs
CD $14.59  5 stars
These four veterans of new music (two Americans - Joe Fonda (bass), and Michael J. Stevens (piano), and two Europeans - Hann Bennink (drums), and Gebhard Ullmann (reeds) need no introduction. Bennink is a new member of this quartet, but he sounds as if h Even taking into account Gebhard Ullmann's outstanding discography, this is an extraordinary release due in large part to one of the most impressive rhythm sections on either side of the Atlantic. Ullmann rises to the occasion with some of his most inspired work on disc, and when it is over the only question the listener is likely to ask is: Why isn't Ullmann better known than he is? His full-sound on tenor sax resounds with the consistency of a thick chocolate shake, and on Joe Fonda's "Circle," the intense interplay of the band takes hold, leading to outstanding camaraderie and interaction. This is a group that indulges in diversity, and one minute the mood may be upbeat and fanciful, and the next morose and somber, but there is no question that Ullmann knows where he is going. The drawn-out pace of "Variations on a Theme by Claude Debussy," for example, finds Ullmann on his bass clarinet, gently and even romantically waxing lyrically, with ...

Black Cat CD music
CD $15.05  Audio Samples
composition "All in a Night" as acoustic country-rock, and is also very convincing on the slightly maudlin "I Still Cry." But she really shines when she pulls out the stops on the dance sets, the best of which include a brilliant medley of jigs titled "Loggers in the Short Grass" and the spectacular "Grand Slaque" set. There's something eternal about the combination of a fiddle, a piano, and an upbeat but slightly melancholy dance tune, and Verch has tapped into that something in a deep way. Kudos to producer Dirk Powell for keeping her sound clean, focused, and uncluttered -- and for pitching in some excellent fretless banjo on a couple of tracks. Very highly recommended. ~ Rick Anderson On her third disc for the Rounder label, Canadian fiddler, singer, and step dancer April Verch continues to explore the folk traditions of her own native region as well as those of the regions south of the border (Canada's border with the U.S., that is) and more modern country and folk-rock sounds. Other artists might eventually meld all of those varied influences into a ...

Her interpretations and phrasing along with top notch arranging and orchestrating made this a project I am [was] proud to be part of. Kudos to Janine on a captivating debut."
