| | Joey Defrancesco Legacy CD Joey Defrancesco Discography of CDs
Extending the good vibes created out of their first pairing on the live recording Incredible!, organists Joey Defrancesco and Jimmy Smith get down to business on Legacy. The two stellar and funky musicians have a great musical rapport and seem to really enjoy playing together. Fans of Incredible! will most likely find much to enjoy here. The album has a heavy Latin sound with percussionists Ramon Banda and Jose "Joey" de Leon supplying additional timbales and conga rhythms respectively. Also joining in this time around is special guest tenor saxophonist James Moody, who adds his fiery bop chops to "Jones'n for Elvin." Backing Defrancesco and Smith here are bassist Tony Banda, guitarist Paul Bollenback, and drummer Steve Ferrone. ~ Matt Collar

| | Nighthawks Live Tonite! CD (2002)
Legacy album
$9.29 In 2002, the Nighthawks celebrated their 30th anniversary. The Chicago-minded blues-rock outfit had not changed very much over the years; the Nighthawks of the early 2000s didn't sound much different from the Nighthawks of the early '70s. A collection of live performances from 2001, Live Tonite! makes no attempt to reinvent the blues-rock wheel -- this CD is hardly a radical departure from what the Washington, D.C., band was doing 25 and 30 years earlier. But if the Nighthawks are predictable on Live Tonite!, they ...

Legacy music CDs
$14.95 Saxophonist Gary Thomas' records have been nothing if not provocative. This set, a collection of jazz and pop standards radically reharmonized and annotated rhythmically, is no exception. Thomas assembles a stellar cast on this outing, including guitarist Pat Metheny, pianist Tim Murphy, alternating bassists Anthony Cox and Ed Howard, drummer Terri Lyne Carrington, and percussionist Steve Moss. Thomas' methodology is one of tearing everything out but the tune's original melody and restructuring it from inside. As such, his own reed and woodwind playing and Metheny's guitar in the front line are perfect foils for one another. Metheny leaves his euphoria-driven approach in the wings this time and becomes an impressionist, offering knotty counterpoint on "The Best Thing for You" as ...

$16.45 World,here I come long ways from my home of Philadelphia,Pennsylvania but coming none the less.Born and raised in Philly with a college education from Adelphi University majoring in French,then, utilizing my skills as a French teacher in the Philadelphia school-system. I was never truly happy until I left the USA to live in Paris,France. Choosing to live in Paris was like second nature to me after my experience as an Exchange student,which led me to France working in the Provence. And,it was the French who had discovered my artistic abilities. There I worked as a model and actress while pursuing my musical career. In the music business in Paris I met Clyde Wright who took an interest in my voice and trained me to do some performance with him. Finally,the doors to the music industry were opening . I worked with Clem Ashford and auditioned for LaVell. Also, had the opportunity to be managed briefly by Tony Mabote who had contracted a band giving me the chance to perform as lead singer. However,due to personal matters, I had to relinquish this contract. All in all life in Paris was truly blissful giving me the life of a true artist. Paris has great ...
