The project may seem odd at first: jazz and world music fusion covers of Rolling Stones songs? Yet saxophonist Tim Ries, a decade-long member of the Stones' touring band, fulfills his aim admirably. Gypsy music, gospel, African rhythms, flamenco, fado, Afro-Brazilian, salsa, and nearly every other music from around the world, are thrown in the blender for takes on "Jumpin' Jack Flash," "Brown Sugar," "You Can't Always Get What You Want," and other classics from the world's greatest rock-&-roll band. Even more impressive is the guest roster for these sessions, which includes Milton Nascimento, Eddie Palmieri, Jack DeJohnette, Bill Frisell, and the Rolling Stones themselves.

Personnel: Tim Ries (tenor saxophone); Keith Richards (vocals, guitar); Norah Jones (vocals, piano); Tony Scherr (vocals, bass instrument); Lisa Fischer, Sheryl Crow, Luciana Souza, Bernard Fowler (vocals); Ron Wood, Ben Monder, Bill Frisell, John Scofield (guitar); Stacy Shames (harp); Kent Smith (trumpet, flugelhorn); Michael Davis (trombone); Edward Simon , Roberto Di Gioia, Bill Charlap (piano); Larry Goldings (organ); John Patitucci (bass instrument); Darryl Jones (bass guitar); Clarence Penn, Brian Blade, Charlie Watts (drums); Jeff Ballard (percussion).

Down Beat (p.75) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[F]ull of exciting twists and turns...a marvel of production and logistics..."
JazzTimes (p.94) - "Ries' session work includes artists from Maynard Ferguson and Maria Schneider to Paul Simon and Sheryl Crow, and he creates highlights by staying close to his jazz and pop sensibilities."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.125) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Treatments vary from full-on lengthy jazz breakdowns of 'Paint It Black' and 'Gimme Shelter' to a samba party 'Streetfighting Man'."

Customer Stones World : The Rolling Stones Project II Reviews 




Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Beautiful!
I like jazz (including many of the musicians on this disc), and I like the Stones. I just had to hear how does the music of the Stones sound when played by jazz musicians. Well, it sounds beautiful in this case. The energy of the Stones is missing for sure in these versions (except the one song driven by Keith Richard). Most of the songs here actually sound more like the laid-back side of Bill Frisell's music, even if he is not playing on most of them. Somehow, Tim Ries seems to be heavily influenced by that softer side of Bill Frisell. Why he did not let Bill Frisell fly and rock when playing the music of the Stones, that would have been interesting to hear. For that missed opportunity and for the lackluster signing (mostly background - these performances would have been better without these vocal tracks), I deduct one star. But it is still a very good disc, and surprising in its beauty.

THE VERY BEST OF includes a 46-page booklet with pictures and track information. "Hole In The World" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal. This 1994 greatest hits package (released in anticipation of the band's wildly successful reunion tour and album) supplants THEIR GREATEST HITS 1971-1975. It adds seven songs, but unfortunately deletes "Already Gone," one of their best rockers. What's most interesting about THE VERY BEST OF THE EAGLES - apart from the presence of obviously classic songs like "Take It Easy" and "Hotel California" - is that it demonstrates that the band's esthetic was fully formed from day one. Despite the fact that the songs here span nearly a decade, listening to them back to back you could almost believe they were the product of one marathon recording session. The Eagles' founders Don Henley and Glenn Frey were forthright in their desire to bring then-emerging country rock to new heights of commercial success. Formed in Los Angeles in 1971, they ...
