BJ4 is the fourth of Bob James' impressive albums. Produced and polished by Creed Taylor, James features his usual 1970's cast of musicians, including Steve Gadd, Hubert Laws, Eddie Daniels, guitarist Eric Gale and percussionist Ralph MacDonald. Each of the six tracks spotlights one of the stellar musicians, whether it be Hubert Laws' flute on "Where the Wind Blows Free," Eric Gale's impressive guitar solo on "Treasure Island," or James' fancy finger work on "Tappan Zee." The opening cut, "Pure Imagination" sets the relaxed mood for the album--a recording that delivers what fans have come to expect from the pianist/composer/arranger. BJ4 is a true jazz fusion classic.
All tracks have been digitally remastered.
Personnel: Bob James (Fender Rhodes piano, Clavinet, synthesizer, ARP synthesizer); Eddie Daniels (flute, clarinet, saxophone); Hubert Laws (flute); Art Farmer (trumpet, flugelhorn); Gary King (bass guitar); Steve Gadd (drums); Ralph MacDonald (percussion).

Though Gino Vannelli's third record didn't contain a big hit single like its predecessor, STORM AT SUNUP was a significant step forward artistically. Combining the Stevie Wonder-esque synth textures of POWERFUL PEOPLE with a complex jazz-rock fusion sound and vocal gymnastics occasionally reminiscent of Tim Buckley, the album finds Vannelli at his most musically ambitious. "Mama Coco" sounds like Weather Report jamming with Jamiroquai singer Jason Kay, while "Love ...
| | Average White Band Soul Searching CD (1976)
BJ4 songs
$7.59
AWB's artistic winning streak continued with its outstanding fourth album, Soul Searching. Interestingly, this wasn't an album that enjoyed a great deal of publicity or that contained a lot of major hits. In fact, its biggest single, the dreamy "Queen of My Soul," only made it to number 21 on Billboard's R&B albums chart. But thanks to the devoted following AWB had acquired since signing with Atlantic in 1974, Soul Searching went gold. Indeed, AWB aficionados were quite receptive to first-rate material ranging from the invigorating "I'm the One" to the hauntingly romantic "A Love of Your Own." By zeroing in on their strengths -- hard-hitting funk and delightfully melodic soul -- AWB saw to it that Soul Searching was every bit as rewarding as its predecessors. ~ Alex Henderson

| | Bob James Three CD (1976) Bonus Track; Remastered
BJ4 CD music
$9.89 
1976's THREE is easily one of Bob James' finest recordings. The Creed Taylor-produced album makes its statement with five classic pieces arranged and conducted by James. "Westchester Lady" ranks among the biggest successes of the keyboardist's long career.
The album opens with "One Mint Julep," an energetic fusion cut featuring a strong brass section of Grover Washington, Jr. and Jon Faddis, among others. The haunting melody of "Women of Ireland" marks a turn for slower tempos, with Eddie Daniels on flute and a fine guitar solo by Eric Gale. Daniels returns with a solo on the mellow "Jamaica Farewell." Harvey Mason, Will Lee, and Gary King provide notable support throughout. James' electronic-piano playing simulates vibes on "Storm King," a number almost sunk by its very '70s-styled orchestration. But James' fans won't be disappointed by this third, fine release, and lovers of '70s fusion will definitely want THREE to round out their collections.

| | Sonny Rollins Falling In Love With Jazz CD (1989)
BJ4 music CDs
$12.65
In a career that spanned more than five decades, Sonny Rollins has worked in nearly every style of jazz, from his early days with Miles Davis to his excursions into fusion during the 1970s. Through it all he has remained a uniquely talented player.
On 1989's FALLING IN LOVE WITH JAZZ, Rollins brings together several of his frequent '80s collaborators, including Clifton Anderson on trombone, pianist Mark Soskin and electric bassist Bob Cranshaw. On two tracks, the standard "For All We Know" and Sammy Cahn's "I Should Care," Rollins works with a group featuring such fine instrumentalists as Branford Marsalis, who contributes some Rollins-esque tenor sax, along with Tommy Flanagan on piano and drummer Jack DeJohnette. The set also includes Rollins's inimitable take on "Tennessee Waltz" and two originals, "Sister" and "Amanda," both given an intimate setting consisting of just Rollins's sax, an electric guitar and a trombone.
Recorded at Clinton Recording Studios, New York, New York on June 3, August 5 and September 9, 1989.
Personnel: Sonny Rollins (tenor saxophone); Jerome Harris (electric guitar, electric bass); Branford Marsalis (tenor ...
