| | Christopher Cross Very Best Of CD (2002)
Master Classics CD music
$8.15 
Digitally remastered by Dan Hersch and Bill Inglot (Digiprep).
Christopher Cross had a long career, but he peaked early. His eponymous first album produced four Top 20 hits, highlighted by "Sailing," and won five Grammys -- a record at the time. His streak continued with "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)," a collaboration with Burt Bacharach, Peter Allen, and Carole Bayer Sager that served as the theme for Dudley Moore's smash Arthur. Cross delivered a second album, Another Page, that sounded similar to the first and sold respectably well until it generated a genuine hit with "Think of Laura," thanks to General ...

Master Classics music CDs
$11.39
Like a male Sade, or vintage Steely Dan without the irony, smooth R&B vocalist Kem weaves mellow, late-night musical tapestries over '70s-style jazz grooves. In the process, he manages to sound completely contemporary without so much as a single hip-hop ...
| | Will Downing Emotions CD (2003)
Master Classics songs
$14.09
To the untrained eye, silken-voiced Will Downing may seem merely an R&B journeyman, making solid, soulful records year after year, just on the edge of stardom. However, there has to be more to an artist whose first hit single is an update of John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme." And, indeed, EMOTIONS, the singer's tenth album, features a jazz undercurrent (no, not Kenny G "jazz"), sincerely channeling the spirit of Bill Withers and Al Green records past.
EMOTIONS opens with a tender jam (gutsily "for the fellas"), "A Million Ways," which asserts "making love ain't just in the bed." In this chronicle of the simple ways to please a woman, Downing ...

| | Kaoru Azuma Footprints In New York CD (2008)
Master Classics CD music
$15.19
â– BIOGRAPHY & Liner notesKaoru Azuma performed jazz vocal in her hometown of Osaka, Japan. But she realized that to get to the heart of the music, to understand the culture in which it was born and to master the nuances of the language, she had to continue her studies in New York City, the capital of jazz. In 2003, Kaoru enrolled in the jazz studies program at the City College of New York (CUNY), where she became immersed in the study of jazz theory, history, arranging, English diction, improvisation and vocal technique. The melting pot of New York City changed her profoundly; according to Kaoru "it opened my mind and let me know who I am." She discovered herself and had a story to tell through her music. After receiving her BFA degree from City College, Kaoru began performing in clubs around New York, but the needs of her family have drawn her back to Osaka. The CD, "Footprints in New York," is her dedication and farewell to the city that taught her so much about American jazz. "High Wire" by Chick Corea was originally recorded with vocalist Chaka Khanon Chick's Echoes of an Era, but Kaoru's arrangement gives it a new twist.Kaoru learned Bird's classic "Confirmation" from her teacher, the legendaryjazz vocalist Sheila Jordan. Her arrangement brings a hint of Horace Silver's "Juicy Lucy" into the mix.The medley of "Hana" and "A Flower Is a Lovesome Thing" combines a Japanese song by Okinawan Shokichi Kina with Billy Strayhorn's classic. Both songs talk about flowersand the traditional Japanese scale blends beautifully with Strayhorn's exotic harmonies.The second Wayne Shorter classic on the CD, "Yes or No," has also beentransformed by Kaoru's recasting of the rhythmic underpinnings of the tune."Jungle City New York" is Kaoru's version of Monk's "Bemsha Swing." HerJapanese lyrics to Monk's quirky melody gives us her impression of life inNew York. For us non-Japanese speakers, the translation follows below."Footprints" has been recorded many times, but Kaoru gives it new life by blendingvoices with trombone, the outgrowth of a project for an arranging class she took with pianist Mike Holober."Giant Steps" has been intimidating instrumentalists for years, let alonevocalists. Kaoru was inspired to record it because "the chord changes gave me the idea for the lyrics, as well as the realization that even small and slow changes can bring about the next ...
