| | Steve Vai Ultra Zone CD Steve Vai Discography of CDs
This album contains two tributes to two other stellar guitarists. One of those is "Jiboom," which pays homage to Stevie Ray Vaughan, while "Frank" remembers Frank Zappa. Vai saw his career begin as a teenage stunt guitarist for Frank Zappa. Later, Mike Keneally performed the same role in a band backing Zappa. For this album, Keneally toured in Vai's band, but plays keyboards on the album. It is an amazing exhibition of six-string talent. ~ Tom Schulte

| | Gov't Mule By A Thread CD (2009)
Ultra Zone CD music
$12.29  
BY A THREAD is Gov't Mule's first studio album since HIGH & MIGHTY was issued in 2006. Since that time, bassist Andy Hess has been replaced by Jorgen Carlsson, though Hess appears on two tracks at the end of the album. Carlsson's playing style is much more aggressive than Hess', and is therefore closer - in spirit anyway - to Gov't Mule's original bassist, the late Allen Woody, though he possesses an adventurous sense of time and is harmonically more colorful than either Woody or Hess. Carlsson and drummer Matt Abst are a solid match, since Abst is a drummer used to shifting time signatures and allowing the unexpected in while still driving a band. The band's keyboardist and rhythm guitarist, Danny Louis, is a shape-shifter, playing to whatever is needed in a given track. His manner of coloring sounds inside ...

Ultra Zone music CDs
$7.15
Joe "King" Oliver was Louis Armstrong's idol and mentor. The recordings they made together during the years 1923-1924 are precious milestones of classic jazz that live in the same pantheon with the early recordings of Jelly Roll Morton, James P. Johnson, Fats Waller, Duke Ellington, Thomas Morris, Sidney Bechet, Bennie Moten, the New Orleans Rhythm Kings and Bix Beiderbecke. Armstrong struck out on his own in late 1924, after which Oliver's career took a series of errant and indecisive turns. The orchestra that recorded for Victor under Oliver's name during 1929-1931 was quite different from the smaller bands he'd led a few years earlier. Oliver's Victor groups conformed to the stylistic trends of jazz and dance orchestras that prevailed in New York during the late 1920s. In 2005, the Colombian budget label Yoyo Music brought out a sampler of 16 sides cut by King Oliver's Orchestra in the year 1930. By the time these records were made, Oliver's chops were gone enough that his nephew Dave Nelson was the lead trumpeter, with Henry "Red" Allen making several dramatic contributions as well. In addition to several excellent reed players, Oliver's orchestra was greatly strengthened by the presence of tuba wrestler ...
