Highpertrybe songs
$17.09
For her second album as a leader, Indiana denizen Janiece Jaffe has chosen to limit her accompaniment to guitar and bass, each separately. Guitar player Marcos Cavalcante provides the support on six cuts, while bass player Tom Hildreth is on the remaining eight tracks. Jaffe is in good company with just the one instrument approach. Sheila Jordan recorded with bass players Arild Andersen and Harvie Swartz behind her. More recently, fine Chicago songstress Jackie Allen has recorded with bass player Hans Sturm. On the guitar/voice side, Nancy King has been to the studio with guitar player Glen Moore to turn out exceptional albums.
With this sparse instrumental assistance, the singer has to be ready to carry more of the performance than she otherwise would. The results of Jaffe's efforts are mixed. She has exceptional range, good diction and works well with her accompanists. Her voice carries a slight vibrato which she uses to good effect, especially at the end of a phrase. On some cuts, however, she stays too long at the higher end of her range causing her voice to get a bit thin, as on "My Romance" and "Angel Eyes." Hildreth saves the track with some choice bass soloing. When Jaffe takes a more balanced direction, using her full vocal capacity, the results are more satisfying, as on a blusey "Just a Lucky So and So," highlighted by some good wordless vocalizing. Another outstanding rendition comes with "Gentle Rain." Both these cuts find her with Cavalcante's guitar, which fits her voice better than the bass, at least on this disc. The very good vocal/bass rendition of "Till There Was You," however, shows that it is possible for Jaffe to work well with a bass without straining. But this cut is the exception rather than the rule. Nonetheless, this CD has much to offer and will be a welcome addition to one's vocal collection. ~ Dave Nathan

Savitre began as an idea to create music, which was unique and powerful. The band started in 2001 with Sav, Bob, and Matt trying to meld their eclectic styles. After a short time together, Paul entered the fold igniting the unpredictable sound of Savitre. The combination of these four intensely creative individuals melding their distinctive musical talents has forged a sound unlike ...

Space is what I need to be creative -- that good quality alone time that frees your brain and lets you breath more deeply. Space is that down time, the quiet time when nothing needs to be said because the space speaks it so perfectly. It's about timing too, and out of all of that comes this stuff.I don't know that I ever really have a goal to write this or that kind of tune, it's more that I don't have a choice because when I sit down, things just seem to come. So I sit with it, work it, give it space, revisit it, sometimes hope I haven't forgotten it, and work it over & over. It's a different form of problem solving, like sudoku. I'm working & re-working it constantly, figuring out how to connect all the parts together, finding the right intro, the right bridge, and, naturally, the right space for it to breathe. About the tracks...1. For SSR: I wrote this for my Uncle Stokes after he passed away from lymphoma. There's an inherent bitter-sweetness to this song, the way it climbs the register and back down again, then back up, and finally resolves!almost.2. Shopping List: There's something trace-like with that constant note in the base that I find soothing. It's almost as if the melody moves around it, changing it even though it stays the same. What it has to do with shopping lists, I haven't a clue.3. Him: This was actually inspired by a hymn, but 'hymn' doesn't have half the intrigue as 'Him' does. The percussion totally transforms this into one groovin' little tune, thanks to Tim Curle, percussionist for Josh Groban.4. 1-3-5 is my finger position on the first chord. It's been called 1-3-5 for a long time, [I wrote this when I was 15 or 16. ] It wasn't finished until I was 40-whatever, but I was afraid if I renamed it, I wouldn't remember what song it was. 5. Thanks, Jackson Browne: Perhaps a more apt title is Jackson Browne-meets-the-theme-from-Peanuts, but I didn't want to insult the guy.6. Look Away: This is a very tender and emotional piece, and when I play the last ...
