Swinging The Big Band
$11.79 
The title of this set by alto saxophonist Paul Desmond refers to his having placed first once again in the alto chair in the Downbeat poll. Released in 1959, First Place Again is the result of an unexpected gathering of the rhythm section of the Modern Jazz Quartet: Percy Heath and Connie Kay, and Jimmy Giuffre 3 guitarist Jim Hall. The four musicians were all unexpectedly at home in New York and took full advantage of cheap, after-hours recording studio time to play out this set of standards and a pair of newer tunes, John Lewis' great blues, "Two Degrees East, Three Degrees West," and "East of the Sun (and West Of The Moon)," from a Princeton University theater work. The rest, including a fine reading of "Greensleeves," which is short and tight here, Cole Porter's "I Get a Kick out of You," J. Fred Coots' "For All We Known," "You Got to My Head" -- another Coots' tune -- and Sammy Cahn's "Time After Time," are done with an airy, amiable vibe, especially the work between Hall and the rhythm section, which is full of counterpoint and sharp accents. Desmond, of course, being at that time the king of melodic improvisation on the alto -- with the possible exception of Art Pepper's ascendancy -- is in fine form. His whimsical, breathy, dry tone is sharp, on the spot, and full of ideas as he quotes from a vast number of tunes. This is a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxed set if ultimately unmemorable. ~ Thom Jurek
Quartet. First-rate quartet session. Jim Hall (g), Percy Heath (b), and Connie Kay (d) are super. ~ Ron Wynn

| | Luxury Sounds Of The Losing Blueprint CD (2002)
Swinging The Big Band
$10.15
Described by the record label itself as "fifteen tracks of artsy-fartsy indie-rocky goodness," this compilation is exactly that.Rather than focus on one particular genre, Losing Blueprint has a roster that branches out and dabbles in several areas, and the best part is that the vast majority of these bands come from the northeast.Let's start with the real winners.First on that list is Vaguely Star Shaped, taking what could have been a generic "emo" song, grabbing some guitar and vocal effects from another world altogether, tossing in some beautifully spastic drum work, and creating something quite wonderful.The Nationale Blue contributes "Silver Alien Pyjama (Original Vyrsion)," mixing jazzy beats with Sabbath riffs and spacey effects, the two-movement version of which you can find on the band's recent A Different Kind Of Listening.The guitar work on Andrew Wagner's folky and intense "Palmetto Acres" is worthy of mention in itself, and the sheer intensity of Centralia's eerily creeping "Nestled In The Swiss Alps" pulls every emotion to the surface over the course of six minutes.Meanwhile, The Method And Result blend jerky beats, clever guitar tricks and lovely female vocals to make an interesting little pop song, even if it does stretch out for nearly six minutes, walking right up to the edge of wearing ...
