Personnel: Ernie Watts (vocals, flute, saxophone, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, percussion); James Ingram (vocals, keyboards); Howard Hewett, Phillip Ingram (vocals); David Williams , Steve Lukather, Carlos Rios (guitar); Michael Omartian (strings, piano, keyboards); Bill Reichenbach Jr. (trumpet, trombone); Jerry Hey (trumpet, horns); Larry Hall (trumpet); Don Grusin (electric piano, keyboards, synthesizer); Richard Tee (electric piano, keyboards); Greg Phillinganes (synthesizer, bass synthesizer); Ian Underwood (synthesizer); John "J.R." Robinson , John "4 Daddman" Robinson (drums); Paulinho Da Costa, Quincy Jones (percussion). Audio Mixer: Bruce Swedien. Liner Note Author: Quincy Jones. Recording information: 10/19/1981-10/31/1981. Arranger: Michael Omartian. Inexplicably, Ernie Watts thought it a good idea to record an album dedicated to the movie Chariots of Fire, while having very little to do with the overall plot of the film. The opening number is indeed the theme to Chariots of Fire, but sped up to be danceable. The result is what disco connoisseur Morgan Geist might deem to be an "unclassic" -- really bad but in a very laughable way (it also could double as the fine theme to an afternoon syndicated talk show). James Ingram also makes an appearance on the smooth rocker "Hold On," and there's a ridiculous cover of the Lionel Richie/Kenny Rogers hit "Lady" and one of Donny Hathaway's "Valdez in the Country," which would be appropriate music bedding for your local cable weather forecast. The album is finally put out of its misery with a "slower" and more reggae-based interpretation of "Chariots of Fire" that is just as amusing as the album's opener, if not more so. Proceed with caution. ~ Rob Theakston Ernie Watts Chariots Of Fire Songs | 1. | Chariots of Fire Theme - (dance version) |

Purchase Chariots Of Fire CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Charles Lloyd Jumping The Creek CD (2005)
Chariots Of Fire
$14.65 Personnel: Charles Lloyd (alto saxophone, tenor saxophone); Charles Lloyd (tarogato); Geri Allen (piano); Robert Hurst (double bass); Eric Harland (drums, percussion). Audio Mixers: Talley Sherwood; Dominic Camardella. Liner Note Author: Stanley Crouch. Recording information: Cello Studios, Los Angeles, CA (01/2004). Photographer: Dorothy Darr. Since making a middle-of-life comeback in the 1990s, saxophonist, composer, and bandleader Charles Lloyd has continually issued fascinating recordings. While some of them contain missteps, it's not for lack of ambition. For one of jazz's elder statesmen, Lloyd pushes his envelope of ideas about improvisation, rhythm and harmony, often to the breaking point. He is a player who sets sometimes impossibly high goals for himself, but in so doing, gives listeners something to really hold on to when encountering one of his albums or seeing him live. Jumping the ...

| | Wynton Marsalis Live At The House Of Tribes CD (2005)
Chariots Of Fire
$13.65 Live at the House of Tribes documents trumpeter Wynton Marsalis performing with his sextet at the intimate community theater space in New York City on December 15, 2002. Apparently an annual ritual of sorts for Marsalis, the performance makes for one of his best live recordings since 1986's stellar Live at Blues Alley. Backed by a slightly altered lineup from his 2005 Blue Note studio debut, The Magic Hour, Marsalis gains first-class support from alto saxophonist Wessel Anderson, pianist Eric Lewis, drummer Joe Farnsworth, bassist Kengo Nakamura, and percussionist Orlando Q. Rodriguez. Special mention must be made of Robert Rucker for his highly energetic tambourine performance on the New Orleans "2nd Line" finale. New Orleans jazz aficionados may recognize this tune as "Joe Avery's Blues" and based on the cheering, clapping, and general rowdiness of the crowd, it probably found the band marching around the room. In fact, one of the great things about the album is that you can really hear the crowd. ...

Chariots Of Fire
$9.59 Personnel: Sonny Rollins (tenor saxophone); Sonny Rollins; Clifton Anderson (trombone); Stephen Scott (piano, kalimba); Bob Cranshaw (electric bass, bass guitar); Perry Wilson (drums); Kimati Dinizulu (percussion). Audio Remixer: Richard Corsello. Liner Note Author: Bob Blumenthal. Recording information: Berklee Performance Center, Boston, MA (09/15/2001). Editor: Richard Corsello. Photographers: Ken Franckling; John Abbott . When the disasters on 9/11 occurred, the great tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins was in his New York apartment, only blocks away from the World Trade Center. He survived a night without electricity and was of course deeply affected by the catastrophe. At the urging of his wife and manager, Lucille, he fulfilled an engagement to play in Boston four days later, and the concert recording was released four years later. Rollins is quite emotional in his playing and can be heard throughout in peak creative ...
