| | Sir Roland Hanna Solo Piano CD - Import Sir Roland Hanna Discography of CDs
Sir Roland Hanna is one of many great jazz pianists from Detroit. Despite a long, fruitful career, he deserves greater merit and critical acclaim than he has yet been granted. Classically trained but also a formidable bop stylist, Solo Piano was recorded in a private home in France during the summer of 1974. Eleven tracks appeared on an obscure LP issued by Hi-Fly, and two bonus tracks appear on this Storyville CD reissue; the latter are previously unreleased. The less-than-high-tech audio makes the session sound as if it had been recorded two decades earlier, though the piano is in tune and Hanna's performances are consistently at a high level. His wailing interpretation of "Stompin' at the Savoy" and the introspective, extended workout of "Willow Weep for Me" are extraordinary. The pianist turns on the afterburners in his flashy original "Anoné," and also revisits his dramatic ballad "Perugia." The bonus material includes the Gershwins' less-frequently played "Isn't It a Pity," and an inventive, lyrical, ten-minute workout of "All Things You Are." ~ Ken Dryden

Solo Piano album
 $6.49    
With BIRTH OF THE COOL, Miles Davis distilled a new tonal palette for jazz. As early as 1954, Miles reacted to the escalating chordal complexity of hard bop by fashioning an evocative blues based on a simple scalar pattern ("Swing Spring"). KIND OF BLUE was the ultimate fulfillment of this approach, with Miles providing his collaborators little more than outlines for melodies and simple scales for improvisation. By emphasizing the blues and the improvisor's melodic gifts, KIND OF BLUE precipitated a major stylistic development--modal jazz.
Charles Mingus had experimented with pedal points throughout the 1950s, and the melodic freedom of Ornette Coleman's Atlantic sides was also predicated on freedom from chord changes. But KIND OF BLUE was to prove the most influential, enduring work of its kind. There was just such a vibe about these 1959 sessions--Miles' lyric genius and burgeoning stardom, ...

The Original Power-Nap CD provides the equivalent of 3 Hours of deep sleep in 20 minutes listening time!Mastered utilizing a scientifically engineered series of computer-generated sound waveforms, listening to this CD for 20 minutes through Stereo Headphones will leave you feeling refreshed, energized, positive, and ready to face the rest of your day!How does it work? We take advantage of "Carrier Waves" which make it possible for even inexpensive headphones to reproduce the equivalent of 1 to 200Hz waves. When you sleep under normal circumstances, your brain cycles through several different stages of Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and High Gamma waves as you drift from one stage of sleep to another-- from deep sleep to dreaming, to wakefulness, and so on. When you listen through headphones, your brain has no sensory input other than the sounds that are played through your ears. When the brain hears more than a minute or so of a certain frequency, it modulates to match the input frequency. Thus, listening to this CD through headphones for a duration of 20 minutes guides your brain through a pattern of sleep that would otherwise require three hours of time!What happens when you listen? You will hear pleasing waterfall-like sounds for the duration of the CD. During the first 5 minutes or so, your brain adjusts to the sounds coming through the headphones. For the next 10 minutes, the CD cycles your brain between deep and REM sleep periods, finally bringing your mind to a state of heightened wakefulness at the end of the CD. When the waterfall-like sounds stop, you will awaken spontaneously, feeling refreshed as though you have had a long nap.Who can benefit?- Anyone who works long hours and needs a break to re-focus. - Students with rigorous schedules or preparing for exams. - Busy mothers with young children. - Overly ambitious persons who are looking for a few more hours in a day. - Individuals who are in professions where their shifts change. - Persons who travel between time zones. - Physicians with a rigorous call schedule- Anyone needing a little extra lift from time to time.
