Electric bassist Jaco Pastorius' Word of Mouth big band made two recordings for Warner Bros. during its short life, of which is this is the superior one. The large ensemble (five trumpets including Randy Brecker, five reeds with solo space for Bobby Mintzer on tenor and soprano, four trombones, two French horns, Toots Thielemans on harmonica, drummer Peter Erskine, percussionist Don Alias, and Othello on steel drum) performs a variety of superior material. Although Pastorius takes his share of solo space, and the sound of a big band backing a bass soloist is rather unusual, he does not excessively dominate the music. Pastorius contributed some of the pieces (most notably "Liberty City"), is showcased on "Amerika," and also plays such tunes as "Invitation," "The Chicken," "Sophisticated Lady," "Giant Steps," and Gil Evans' "Eleven." ~ Scott Yanow

Invitation music CDs
$6.79
Before David Gilmour virtually "became" Pink Floyd he was always the most likely member of the band (with the possible exception of de-facto leader Roger Waters) to release a solo album. 1978's welcome eponymous debut showcased his multi-faceted performing talents.
The album opener "Mihalis" is an ANIMALS period instrumental, which, along with "Raise My Rent," sounds like an outtake from that album. The beautiful "There's No Way Out of Here" begins with a lonely harmonica and, with "No Way" and "I Can't Breathe Anymore," expounds the album's main theme of being trapped in an untenable situation. "Cry From the Streets" is a nod to the blues, while the lovely "So Far Away" harks back to the ballads ...

| | Doors Soft Parade CD (1969) Gold; Remastered
Invitation CD music
$20.29 
Dismissed by the benighted as the Doors' "pop album," SOFT PARADE is one of the band's most adventurous recordings, utilizing strings and horns without resorting to schlocky over-production and moving far beyond their blues roots. Morrison was fully into his shaman phase by 1969, and his obsession with that image is reflected in the proselytizing air of "Tell All the People," and of course "Shaman's Blues." The album's biggest hit "Touch Me," while easily the group's most radio-friendly offering, is a pop classic that ranks among the great '60s AM radio tunes. "Wild Child" is a brief return to the blues-rock of yore, but the title track is a sophisticated, extended ...

Carmela Tal-Baron's poetry is exquisitely modern, romantic and is accompanied by the Chopin-like musical interpretations of John DiMartino. --- Martin Wangh, M.D., Psychoanalyst, NYC 2004Awaiting me are more and more erotic delicacies, fine and pungent, to read with delight: "... to the bitter-wondrous scent of orange blossom. The heart reposes and refills..." (Translated from the Hebrew. From the poem Darkness Is a Blanket, Rainbow Ride, Tal-Baron's first CD; see Biographical Note.) --- Amos Oz, Author and Israel Prize Laureate, IsraelCarmela Tal-Baron's visual art and her poetry both seek to illuminate hidden patterns that draw things together, and to penetrate into their inner life. In recent years, Carmela has cultivated a love of chant, the magical power of the verbal utterance to transform by emphasizing the sensuality of words. Her poetry combines this love of verbal physicality and beauty with a unique playfulness, which give them their special multisensory appeal. (From the introduction to Poets and Mentors, poetry reading by Carmela Tal-Baron and Dahlia Ravikovitch.) --- Dr. Elliott Rabin, Director of Education, Makor/Steinhardt Cultural Center/92nd Street Y, NYCPoetry and music are intimately related; they both express, through rhythm and melody, the precious logic of the heart, an incredible source of healing. --- Louise Montello, author of Essential Musical IntelligenceARTIST'S NOTE:New York City is a perpetual paradigm shift, the modern Babel, where a symphony of tongues and accents is the environmental music we often hear. But do we really listen? We keep asking each other: Where are you from? What is your accent? If only we could pause, listen to each other's spoken words and ask: Who are you? What is your essence? If we did it more often, perhaps our Tower of Babel might transform into a spiraling tower of love."Paradigm Shift" is a collection of 24 poems by Carmela Tal-Baron, with musical interpretations by John DiMartino. It reflects the artist's own paradigm shift, as many of the poems in this collection speak to her personal transition ...
