Ken Walker: Dave Corbus (guitar); Al Hood (trumpet, flugelhorn); Jeff Jenkins (piano); Ken Walker (double bass); Paul Romaine (drums).
Terra Firma features six talented modern mainstream players who are based in Denver. Each of these musicians deserves to be better-known but living in Denver does not help their name recognition. Trumpeter Al Hood is excellent on his ballad feature "Blackberry Winter," pianist Jeff Jenkins takes consistently rewarding solos (recalling McCoy Tyner on "Amsterdam After Dark") and Pete Sommer's muscular tenor solos add fire to the music. The repertoire performed by bassist Ken Walker's sextet includes songs by George Coleman, Eddie Harris and Mel Martin along with five Ken Walker originals, many of which give the set a mid-'60s hard bop feel. The music avoids being predictable due to some inventive arrangements including a multi-tempo "Just One of Those Things" and the variety of grooves and tempos keeps the proceedings consistently stimulating. Fans of modern straight-ahead jazz will enjoy this effort by these lesser-known but world-class musicians. ~ Scott Yanow

Recording information: SOMA EMS.
Photographer: Jim Newberry.
Saxophonist Fred Anderson is approaching legendary status. Aside from his 50-year, remarkably prolific career as a musician, the octogenarian is known for his unique, robust playing that seamlessly combines elements of traditional and avant-garde jazz. Those qualities are proudly displayed on FROM THE RIVER TO THE OCEAN, which finds Anderson joined by percussionist extraordinaire Hamid Drake, guitarist Jeff Parker, bass player Harrison Bankhead, and others. The music is always adventurous, ...

David Murray: David Murray (bass clarinet); Lafayette Gilchrist (piano); Ray Drummond (bass guitar); Andrew Cyrille (drums).
Additional personnel: Cassandra Wilson (vocals).
In the 1970s, tenor saxophonist David Murray established himself as one of jazz's edgiest, most forward-looking musicians and composers, and time has not diminished his fervor. While Murray's big-toned approach has become a tad smoother, he still breathes fire and talks in tongues. Yet unlike some avant-garde players, he also has a blues-charged gregariousness. SACRED GROUND features Murray's regular working group with special guest Cassandra Wilson, whose sultry, smoky, slightly husky vocals grace two songs. Pianist ...

Oh Happy Day
Edwin Hawkins Oh Happy Day CD  (1969)

Terra Firma
CD $5.65  Audio Samples Definitive Album
Additional personnel includes: Dorothy Combs Morrison.
Originally released as a 2 LP set.
Personnel: Dorothy Morrison, Betty Watson, Donald Cashmere, Trumaine Davis, Elaine Kelly, Rueben Franklin, Ruth Lyons, Margaret Branch (vocals).
Director: Edwin Hawkins.
Arranger: Edwin Hawkins.
There are several excellent Edwin Hawkins best-of compilations around, and they all seem to be called OH HAPPY DAY (the title of Hawkins's career-making 1969 hit). But BMG's concise 10-track collection of the same name is as good as any, focusing as it does on the uplifting, neo-soul gospel the group was turning out in the early '70s.
Hawkins is considered a key figure in updating gospel's church-bound vibe with the more pop-directed sounds of soul and R&B (providing a musical mirror image of what artist's like Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin did earlier in '60s when infusing pop forms ...
