With so much focus on American jazz artists, the discovery of promising Europeans like pianist Kasper Villaume is a special treat. Joined by bassist Jesper Bodilsen and veteran drummer Jeff Tain Watts (a veteran of both Wynton and Branford Marsalis' rhythm sections, as well as being a bandleader himself), Villaume's second CD for Stunt opens with his superb post-bop vehicle "Please Enter-Tain." He teases his listeners with a disguised vamp to set up his romp through "Seven Steps to Heaven," showcasing Watts' formidable skills. His brisk setting of George Shearing's "Conception" alternates between bossa nova and bop. Villaume's introspective interpretation of Herbie Hancock's "Toys" is also memorable, while the trio's effective performance of a chestnut like "Caravan" also manages to find new territory to explore. Kasper Villaume is clearly deserving of wider international recognition. ~ Ken Dryden

Personnel: Kasper Villamue (piano); Jesper Bodilsen (bass instrument); Jeff "Tain" Watts (drums).

Milt Hinton Trio CD  (1977)

117 Ditmas Avenue album
CD $14.75  Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Over the years, Hank Jones' work has been impressively consistent. The veteran pianist can, at times, be predictable and short on surprises, but rarely does one encounter a Jones album that is flat-out disappointing. Like other albums that Jones provided in the late '70s, The Trio doesn't take a lot of chances, but is solid and pleasing. Produced by Chiaroscuro president Hank O'Neal, this 1977 session finds Jones forming an acoustic piano trio with bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Bobby Rosengarden -- and not surprisingly, the three of them enjoy a consistently strong rapport on original material as well as familiar standards like "I'll Remember April," "Lullaby of the Leaves," and "S'Wonderful." Hinton and Rosengarden lay out on "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning," giving the swinging yet lyrical Jones a chance to play unaccompanied. But most of the time, the musicians perform as a threesome on this album (which should not be confused with another Jones effort that has also been called The Trio -- that session was recorded for Savoy in 1955 and united him with bassist Wendell Marshall and drummer Kenny Clarke). Originally released on vinyl, this album was finally reissued on CD in 2003 -- and without any alternate takes or bonus tracks. A lot of alternate takes were recorded at this 1977 session, but regrettably, all of them were lost. Hardcore collectors will ...

Stan Getz Bossas & Ballads: The Lost Sessions CD  (2003)

117 Ditmas Avenue CD music
CD $15.39  4.5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
First off, these "Lost Sessions" were never actually lost. The music here was supposed to be released as the Stan Getz Quartet's first issue on A&M, and for the usual record company reasons, it was shelved instead. The tapes were in the vault and catalogs, so it's not like they were found in someone's closet. The bottom line is that Getz, already ill at this point, still had the goods. Produced by Herb Alpert (a genius in his own right even if his records don't always hold up), the bossas here are tough, innovative jazz tunes mainly written by Getz's pianist, Kenny Barron. Don't look for the gentle side of Getz that was so beautifully displayed on his early bossa records with Charlie Byrd and Antonio Carlos Jobim. Instead, this is the man who had reinvented his playing technique. With a strong foil in Barron, Getz was free to explore his form of melodic improvisation to a fuller and wider extent, which is evident if you simply check out his solos on Barron's "Sunshower" and "El Sueno," and Mal Waldron's classic ballad "Soul Eyes." Interestingly, this was Barron's date ...

Terence Blanchard Flow CD  (2005)

117 Ditmas Avenue album
CD $11.69  Audio Samples
On Terence Blanchard's FLOW, the hard-bop trumpeter steps outside his usual milieu to explore long-form composition. Divided into three sections entitled "Flow Part I," "Flow Part II, and "Flow Part III," this album focuses more on Blanchard's compositional skill than his improvisational prowess. This is not to say that FLOW is strict or rigid. Like the title implies, each track on this album is relaxed and fluid. Moreover, there is great musical interplay between Blanchard, drummer Kendrick Scott, and the always creative guitarist Lionel Loueke. FLOW begins with the quasi-reggae "Flow, Part I," and is followed by "Wadagbe (Intro)," a showcase for Loueke's abstract guitar musings and vocal effects. Eventually, this music falls into a Freddie Hubbard-like modal style with movements such as "Benny's Tune" and "Child's Play." However, Blanchard and company never remain in any one genre for too long. For ...
