| | Joe Henderson Milestone Profiles CD Joe Henderson Discography of CDs
Collecting a variety of the tenor saxophone player Joe Henderson's 1970s recordings for the Milestone label, MILESTONE PROFILES is an intriguing and absorbing mixed bag that features post-bop ballads like "Mamacita," the funky soul-jazz of "Black Narcissus," more modernist offerings like "Out 'N' In," and the free-floating lyricism of "Black Is the Color of My True Love's Mind." Throughout, Henderson's playing is supple, eclectic, and sometimes revelatory.

Milestone Profiles album
 $13.75  
Pianist David Hazeltine joins forces once again with tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander for an outstanding session. With bassist Peter Washington and drummer Joe Farnsworth supplying the base of a solid rhythm section, Hazeltine delves into several pop songs from the 1950s and 1960s, giving them complete makeovers. Henry Mancini's slow waltz "Moon River" incorporates stop-time measures initially before settling into a driving hard bop mode. Burt Bacharach's often tediously played ballad "The Look of Love" is still played at a slow tempo, but the pianist adds an ominous sound to sections of his trio arrangement. The briskly paced scoring of Jimmy Van Heusen's

| | Lee Morgan Sonic Boom CD (1967) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Milestone Profiles CD music
$9.45
Sonic Boom was not released until 1979 and then remained in print only for a brief time before eventually being reissued years later. In addition to the great trumpeter Lee Morgan and a fine rhythm section (pianist Cedar Walton, bassist Ron Carter, and drummer Billy Higgins), the well-rounded set is a bit special for it allows the often R&B-associated tenor David "Fathead" Newman an opportunity to stretch out in a more challenging setting than usual. Highlights include the funky "Fathead," the complex "Sneaky Pete," Morgan's lyricism on "I'll Never Be the Same," and the infectious rhythms on "Mumbo Jumbo." This is an undeservedly obscure session. ~ Scott Yanow
This is indeed a welcome curiosity. The 2003 version of Lee Morgan's Sonic Boom was recorded in 1967, was not released until 1979, and then was quickly deleted. When it was reissued on CD in the 1990s, it was only in print for a short time as well. While one might think the third time is the charm, you'd ...

| | Ralph Stanley Early Classics: The King Recordings CD (2007)
Milestone Profiles songs
$11.39
The Stanley Brothers had recorded off and on for Syd Nathan's Cincinnati-based King Records since 1958 when Carter Stanley died suddenly in 1966, leaving his brother Ralph Stanley at an unenviable crossroads. Ralph eventually approached Nathan about continuing to record for the label as a solo act, and Nathan, who had enjoyed strong sales with the Stanley Brothers, readily agreed, thus launching what amounted to a second 40-plus-year career for Ralph Stanley. He tracked three albums for King between 1967 and 1969 (Brand New Country Songs, Over the Sunset Hill, and Hills of Home), the source for the 14 cuts on this collection (which functions as a kind of addendum to Time Life's Stanley Brothers compilation, The Definitive Collection 1947-1966). Carter was the songwriter in the original partnership, so Ralph opted to stay close to traditional Appalachian folk material, choosing songs that were often bone-chillingly dark and thus emotionally fitted to his ragged, weary-sounding tenor voice. That voice, which sounds as lonesome as a ghost crying out for solace on a starless night, brought both authenticity and an intangible spiritual toughness to everything Stanley sang, and made most other bluegrass singers sound like sweetened-up popsters. Stanley, by the way, has never labeled what he does bluegrass, calling it simply folk music, and that barely one-step ...

$13.15 | | John Patrick Williams Grace CD (2008)
Milestone Profiles album
$15.19
One may never know what tomorrow will bring, but today there is Grace. Montana’s John Patrick Williams has been wandering the countryside for years, finding a traveler’s muse on the road and in the wild and weaving a wealth of experience and tales of the ages into song. This winter, John sojourned to studio to compile his songs into a record, and emerged with Grace. Producer Wayne Murphy (Bear Grass Records) kept the proceedings sharp and simple, allowing John’s exceptional voice and focused guitar to be captured with resounding clarity, while subtle tracks of mandolin and harmonica add rich tone to the sonic palette. Listeners can expect an engaging release with story filled songs as varied as the Montana landscape itself, from the up-tempo drive of “Great Day” to the Celtic wail of “Ireland’s Child” to the ethereal ode to the water “Flathead River ...
| | Blind Guardian Nightfall On Middle Earth CD (1998) Bonus Track; Reissue
Milestone Profiles CD music
$13.85 
Complete with anthemic choruses, spoken word story lines, and plenty of bombastic power metal punctuating every dramatic turn, Nightfall in Middle-Earth is perhaps Blind Guardian's most triumphant effort. After spending ten years and numerous releases building a large following in Europe and Japan, Blind Guardian took on the task of creating this progressive concept record based on J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy novel The Silmarillion. The story recounts events from the first age of Middle-Earth, Tolkien's parallel world ...
