Purchase Have You Heard CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Ron Blake Lest We Forget CD (2003)
Have You Heard
 $14.09 
The veteran saxman loosely fashions his label debut as a tribute to three diverse and influential jazz legends, Stanley Turrentine, Grover Washington, Jr., and soul-jazz organist Charles Earland. Blake's more than up to the task of capturing the many moods of the first two, bringing a swinging blues panache to the jubilant "Sara's Dance" and sly seduction to "Minor Chant" (Turrentine), then a vibrant, soul-intensive pop-funk vibe to "Mister Magic." He grasps Washington's gentler Winelight side with his lighthearted, lyrical soprano on "Making Love to You." But how to capture the bluesy Hammond B-3 energy of Earland? Blake looked no further than Joey DeFrancesco, who brings his driving enthusiasm (and blazing sense of improv, where there are openings) to all but one of the tracks. The specifically Earland tunes are "More Today Than Yesterday" (which the late organist turned into a minor jazz standard) and "Mighty Burner." Blake approaches the first tune in a laid-back, understated way, playing it cool as DeFrancesco's harmonies brew underneath; they take things up a notch after a few minutes. "Mighty Burner" is a fiery barnburner from the get-go, speedy and soulful, ...
| | Curtis Fuller Up Jumped Spring CD (2004)
Have You Heard
$12.89 
Over the years, Curtis Fuller has recorded the majority of his albums in New York City. But when the veteran trombonist visited Chicago for the Chicago Jazz Festival in 2003, he joined forces with several Windy City musicians (including Karl Montzka on piano, Larry Gray or Stewart Miller on bass, and Tim Davis on drums) and recorded Up Jumped Spring for Bob Koester's Chicago-based Delmark label. Trumpeter Brad Goode (who was a fixture on the Chi-Town jazz scene before moving to Cincinnati in 1997) is also on board, as is singer Jacey Falk (who produced the album). Fuller (who was 68 when he recorded Up Jumped Spring) was one of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers in his younger days, and not surprisingly, a strong Jazz Messengers influence asserts itself on these hard bop and post-bop performances -- the Jazz Messengers influence is impossible to miss on hard-swinging performances of John Coltrane's "Equinox" and Herbie Hancock's "Cantaloupe Island," as well as Duke Ellington's "In a Mellow Tone" and Benny Golson's "Whisper Not." Goode, thankfully, is featured extensively, and Falk (a promising jazz singer with a strong R&B influence) has a memorable spot on Jessie Mae Robinson's "Black Night" (the only vocal offering on this mostly instrumental disc). One wishes that instead of paying so much ...
| | Jeff "Tain" Watts Detained At The Bluenote CD (2004)
Have You Heard
$13.45 
Drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts leads his quintet plus guest altoist Kenny Garrett through extended versions of four of his originals (all of which he had recorded previously in the studio) plus Björk's "107 Steps." While "107 Steps" and "JC Is the Man" (which is more Thelonious Monk than John Coltrane) are fine, it is not until Garrett makes his first appearance on "Mr. JJ" (which is more Coltrane than J.J. Johnson) that this set really explodes. Garrett's passion inspires Watts during their ...

Have You Heard

On paper it seems as if such titanic and distinctive musical personalities as Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane might not mix very well, but this stellar set, recorded live at Carnegie Hall in 1957, plays almost like a ...

Have You Heard
$12.89
Alto saxophonist Daniel Carter is an avant-gardist who can also play thoughtfully and with logical development. On Language, he performs five group originals with bassist Reuben Radding and drummer Gregg Keplinger that are mostly free improvisations. The music starts at its most intense with "Speak Glow," evolves from being introspective to fiery on the nearly 20-minute title cut, is passionate on "Aphasia," and finds the group playing a spontaneous ballad on "Never 3 Saturday." "Roadrunner" ...
