| | Louis Armstrong Definitive Collection CD Louis Armstrong Discography of CDs
This extensive compilation of vocal tracks from the latter part of Louis Armstrong's career features many of his most popular performances, including the 1960s hits "Hello Dolly" and "What a Wonderful World," and his wonderfully relaxed duet with Bing Crosby on "Gone Fishin'." However, even on these more commercially slanted songs, the trumpeter's legendary musical skill is apparent--his soaring solo on "Dolly" effortlessly cruises the instrument's upper registers, and his vocal interpretation of "Mack the Knife" is a masterpiece of jazz singing.
Personnel: Louis Armstrong (vocals, trumpet); Ella Fitzgerald (vocals); Perry Botkin, Bud Scott (guitar); Kid Ory, Tyree Glenn (trombone); Billy Kyle (piano); Red Callender, Arvell Shaw (bass instrument); Barrett Deems (drums).

Definitive Collection songs
$14.05 The second Captain Howdy album finds Jillette and Kramer essentially doing what needs to be done -- low-key music blending Kramer's garage/art rock with perverse accessibility and Jillette's half-sung half-spoken rants and ruminations, plus a few extra folks helping out. Anyone who's watched Comedy Central for even a little bit of time will immediately think of his endless series of spoken word spots ...
| | Solade Boro Song CD (2005) (Import)
Definitive Collection album
$21.45 Solade is an Oberlin-trained, New York-based singer and trumpet player named Andrea Lindborg, working in collaboration with producer and multi-instrumentalist Francis Mbappe to create a vaguely Afro-Cuban-influenced take on jazz-pop that resembles no one so much as the mid-'80s crew of British artists who were doing much the same thing: Sade, Carmel, the Young Marble Giants spin-off Weekend, early Everything But the Girl, Pigbag, Basia, and so on. This is not a bad thing, since all of those bands had their charms. So does Solade, but to a lesser degree: Lindborg has a flirty, breathy singing voice that's charming, but thin and unfortunately limited. (It's difficult to gauge the quality of her trumpet playing, which tends to be restricted to a vaguely Chet Baker-like muted measure here and there, more decoration than an intrinsic part of the songs.) Of course, much the same could be said about most of the bands listed above (was there a weedier singer in the '80s than Weekend's Alison Statton?), but Solade's real weakness is in Mbappe's musical settings. The songs blend bossa nova-style acoustic guitars, ...
