Life Lessons: The Best Of Terry Callier songs
$7.65
While the situation has improved since the days when these songs were written, women jazz composers in general, and African-American women in particular, rarely had the opportunity to hear their music performed, unless they played it themselves. The kind of music composed by these very talented musicians is not played enough. A Mellow Bit of Rhythm goes a long way toward remedying this situation by paying tribute to some of the most talented songwriters, who happen to be women, of the 1920s, '30s, and '40s. In addition to tunes by better known performers/writers, such as Billie Holiday Lil Armstrong, and Bessie Smith, there are works by Alberta Nichols, Irene Wilson, and Una Mae Carlisle. But the writer whose works are most represented is the multi-talented Mary Lou Williams, not just with her popular "Roll 'Em," but with four compositions not as familiar. The music is played here in the style of the era when it was written. But these are by no means old-fashioned arrangements. Rather, this album is comprised of modern players applying their skills to the fine music of a great era. If one had to identify a predominant jazz style, it would be Chicago.

Life Lessons: The Best Of Terry Callier album
$27.29
With selections drawn from three releases dating back to 1987 and up to his 1996 Gershwin collection, this anthology demonstrates not so much that Feinstein is a great singer, but that he is a kind of Barry Manilow for people with long memories. The appeal of the two artists is almost identical -- their arrangements lush and melodramatic, their performances wringing maximum impact from modest resources. What's different is that Feinstein, rather than emphasize original material, has nourished a career on the Great American Songbook. As a result, when he lapses into more contemporary, non-classic material, the gap in quality becomes obvious; you can't mistake songs like "My Favorite Year," which for all intents and purposes could have been made to order for Manilow, for anything as deathless as the lode ...
