Houston Person Mellow CD (2009)

Ensa:Complete Concerts

$13.59

Not all mellow, Houston Person's tribute to the softer side of jazz has its moments based on the laid-back timbre of his soul rather than a program consisting of only ballads. The tenor sax he wields certainly reflects the tradition established by Ben Webster in its soul-drenched tone, but is not as vocally pronounced or vibrato driven. The quite capable pianist John DiMartino is the one whose more enunciated notions are harnessed, while tasteful guitar by the underrated James Chirillo ring out in acceptance of Person's embraceable hues. A program of standards and two blues jams, Person rounds into shape this quintet of true professional to render themes that are harder to play slow than fast. The slower material includes the regretful, throaty ballad "Too Late Now," the totally restrained "To Each His Own," a poignant "Two Different Worlds," and the deep, mature take of "God Bless The Child". Ever cognizant of blue moods, Person is masterful in expressing ...

Diana Krall Quiet Nights CD (2009)

Ensa:Complete Concerts

$13.69

Diana Krall's first studio outing since she and husband Elvis Costello became the proud parents of twin boys, 2009's QUIET NIGHTS finds the jazz singer/pianist turning in a serene and pleasantly subdued set. Krall breezes through a few bossa nova standards, most notably "The Girl from Ipanema" (here gender-reversed to "The Boy...") and the title track (originally "Corcovado"), both penned by the legendary Antonio Carlos Jobim. QUIET NIGHTS isn't solely a Brazilian-themed outing, however, ...

Al Jarreau This Time CD (1980)

Ensa:Complete Concerts

$6.15

Al Jarreau finally found success in the U.S. after 1975's We Got By. The later albums that followed ,like 1977's live Look to the Rainbow and 1978's All Fly Home found him attaining the all-important cult status and accolades from the jazz community. Those facts made his switch to pop/R&B on This Time even more surprising. For This Time, Jarreau is paired with producer Jay Graydon. Despite his jazz credentials, This Time does prove that this style is where Jarreau truly prospers. The jittery "Never Give It Up" and the melodic and pensive "Gimme What You Got" have a crisp and refined L.A. sound, and Jarreau gives the songs weight with his methodical yet playful vocals. In the same vein, the poignantly sung and arranged "Your Sweet Love" ...

Jeff Hamilton Symbiosis CD (2009)

Ensa:Complete Concerts

$12.59

Jeff Hamilton's recordings have always been focused as straight-ahead and mainstream as your typical superhighway, with occasional time for rest stops, gassing up, and sleepovers. While always a good listen, Hamilton and his non-stop rotation of up-and-coming pianists and bassists never really pushed the envelope, staying the course set by his mentor, the late, great bassist Ray Brown, and other California-based coolsters. With Symbiosis, though, there's a change in the weather with the addition of extraordinary young talent in pianist Tamir Hendelman and bassist Christoph Luty. This is not at all to say that Hamilton's music had no fire, guts, or glory, but the difference in internal energy heard on this recording is noticeable. Hamilton is also playing brushes for the most part, instead of sticks, and he proves the finest exponent of that style of jazz performance since Ed Thigpen. ...

Frank Wright Complete Esp-Disk Recordings CDs (2005)

Ensa:Complete Concerts

$17.29

Contains FRANK WRIGHT TRIO (1965)/YOUR PRAYER (1967) plus previously unreleased bonus interview tracks. Frank Wright was firmly in the mix of the free jazz movement, and could easily be termed one if its forefathers along with John Coltrane and Archie Shepp. This double CD demonstrates why, as you hear the reissues of his two albums on ESP-Disk, Frank Wright Trio and Your Prayer, along with a series of interviews explaining how he made this fiery, inventive, singular-minded music. Wright's claim to fame has not been as well revered as, say, Albert Ayler, and was for a time submerged in his image as a pretender. But Wright was never fooling around and, as a serious-minded improviser, is well served by this document of perhaps his greatest works. The trio sides from 1965 with bassist Henry Grimes and drummer Tom Price include the soulful then overblown short chorus of "The Earth," a free bop display on "Jerry" where you can hear the direct connection between Wright and his disciple David Murray, and the 15-minute tonal and thematic "The Moon," still drenched in bop, but forceful, alive, and telling the truth. The other five tracks are quintet recordings, including "The Lady" with its five-note stairstep unison line; the 12-minute "Fire of Spirits" featuring a unified, collective, intense call and response with quick solos and percussion segments by Muhammad Ali; and the honking "Train Stop," which could easily be called "Trane Stop" as Wright uses devices similar to John Coltrane -- and also considering it was recorded in 1967, the year Coltrane passed ...
