Purchase Pure Desmond CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Brian Jonestown Massacre Space Girl & Other Favorites CD (1996)
Pure Desmond
 $12.39 
A collection of early studio experiments from the archly named garage rock veterans Brian Jonestown Massacre. Jonestown leader Anthony Newcombe recorded the majority of these tracks during late-night solo sessions. The results are deliberately roughshod, feedback-drenched excursions into sneering, riff-driven noise rock. The 12-minute-long title track, which evokes the detuned guitar drone of early Sonic Youth ...
| | Joe Farnsworth It's Prime Time CD (2004)
Pure Desmond
$14.99
Drummer Joe Farnsworth has been the drummer of choice for many New York recording sessions over a dozen-year stretch prior to this CD, which is his recording debut as a leader. Having studied with two great drummers, the late Art Taylor and the late Alan Dawson, Farnsworth keeps things moving as he works with a variety of quartets and quintets, with bassist Ron Carter joining him throughout the session. Pianist Harold Mabern contributed the hard bop opener, "Sweet Poppa," which also features tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander, a frequent collaborator on recording dates with Farnsworth. Veteran trombonist Curtis Fuller, with David Hazeltine taking over the piano, is added for the loping standard "Old Folks." Trumpeter Jim Rotundi is on a trio of tracks, including the leader's ...

| | Regina Carter Paganini: After A Dream CD (2003)
Pure Desmond
$11.59 
"Oblivion" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement.
The story behind the music on PAGANINI: AFTER A DREAM should draw in Regina Carter fans and newcomers alike. As a gesture of solidarity after 9/11, Ms. Carter (a New Yorker by way of Detroit) was invited to be the first jazz musician to play Nicolo Paganini's Il Cannone, the over 250-year-old instrument favored by the legendary maestro and an Italian national treasure. The success of this event led to the second loan of the instrument for these sessions, thereby bestowing the CD with historic significance.
The tune selections show some respectful deference to the classical world, including arrangements of compositions by Faure, Debussy, and Ravel. The interpretations, however, are anything but traditional, with the impulse to swing working its way into many of the numbers. Lyricism abounds as well in the slower, more tender tracks, ...

| | Bobby Short Is K-Ra-Zy For Gershwin CDs (1973)
Pure Desmond
$10.69
Bobby Short embarked on his series of songbook albums with one devoted to Cole Porter, followed by a Noël Coward volume. Those seemed like obvious choices for a cabaret artist adept at delivering the witty patter songs devised by such verbal masters. For his third outing, Short turns to Gershwin, and in this case that name refers both to composer George Gershwin and his lyricist brother Ira Gershwin. (There are four early songs here with lyrics by others, however.) Ira Gershwin is a less obvious fit for Short than Porter or Coward, as his songs tend to be unabashedly romantic, and while they display a love of wordplay, not as devoted to sharp wit. The closer match of writer to performer would seem to be between George Gershwin, well known as a strong, ragtime-influenced pianist, and Short, who also accompanies himself on the keyboard. That turns out to be the case. As usual, Short uses only a piano trio for accompaniment, but he explores the jazz-tinged possibilities of Gershwin's melodies. Yet he also turns out to be a good match for Ira Gershwin's words, if only because he delivers them with the warm, upbeat mood in which they are usually intended. The song selection, aided by several Gershwin scholars, is anything but a list of the composer's greatest hits. Short does season the album with well-known standards, especially early on. But he often tries to give the more well-worn songs a different twist. For example, he takes "I've Got a Crush on You" at a brisk tempo, very different from the ballad style given to it by such interpreters as Frank Sinatra. And, taking a leaf from Ben Bagley's "revisited" albums of songwriter obscurities, for which he's recorded, Short presents a clutch of near-forgotten Gershwin songs. "Comes the Revolution," for example, which was sung in the musical Let 'Em Eat Cake, is unpublished and has never been recorded before. "I've Got to Be There" from Pardon My English is also turning up on disc for the first time. "Innocent Ingenue Baby" from Our Nell has never been recorded before in this, its original form. And being given their second-ever recordings are "I Must Be Home by Twelve O'Clock," "Hi-Ho," and "Feeling Sentimental." "I Was So Young (You Were So Beautiful)," "Do What You Do," and "Feeling ...

| | Gothic Blues Nyx CD (2009)
Pure Desmond
$14.79
This is the third release of Gothic Blues ... ten more songs added to our vision of life in the shadows. Ten more voyages into our minds and souls for you to experience. Everyone that enjoys Gothic Blues will be looking forward to the New and I think the Best so far. If you liked Gothic Blues before you will not believe the sound of the Third CD..............it is AMAZING AND STILL BRUTALLY BLUESY!!!!!!!If you've never heard us ... then this is a great CD to start with.Gothic Blues has been judged too dark for an internet radio station that deals in mysticism, ghosts, channeling, psychics, aliens and the afterlife ... well then, I guess its clear that the mainstream is way out of the question ... We can accept that, just as easily as we can accept and confirm that we are "dark" and proud of it ! Gothic Blues is listed as Progressive Rock and Gothic Metal... Spooky and I like to think of it as a mixture of Blues and the Macabre with a Metal Edge. Or perhaps, It's what you would expect if you ripped someone ...
