Pianist Renee Rosnes, bassist Ray Drummond, and drummer Billy Drummond (her husband at the time), put together a fine tribute to the late pianist Bill Evans on these 2000 sessions, though they don't play any of his timeless compositions. Instead, they build upon his vast recorded legacy by interpreting standards and modern compositions that Evans enjoyed playing. While there is a touch of Evans' lyricism in Rosnes' playing, she is no mere copycat; while Ray Drummond's tasty, inventive basslines and Billy Drummond's light-handed percussion would have possibly been an excellent rhythm section for Evans. Rosnes' debt to Evans is most apparent in the upbeat treatment of Earl Zindars' "How My Heart Sings" and the brisk setting of "I Hear a Rhapsody." There are also a pair of tracks not associated with Evans. This CD was also issued by True Life as Pas de Trois, though with a slightly different track selection. ~ Ken Dryden

Trio Beyond Saudades CDs  (2006)

Letter To Evans CD music
CD $21.55  3.3 stars Audio Samples
Trio Beyond is the name of the group that played at Queen Elizabeth's Hall in London, 2004. Jack DeJohnette initiated a project to pay tribute to the late Tony Williams' Lifetime -- with the late Larry Young on organ and guitarist John McLaughlin, all three were Miles alumni -- a band that, along with the Miles Davis band, spearheaded the jazz-rock fusion era. DeJohnette replaced Williams in the Davis group, and John Scofield is also a Miles alumnus; Larry Goldings had been approached by Williams in 1997 to put together an organ trio with a similar concept to Lifetime; Williams passed away shortly thereafter. The results on this double-disc album, Saudades, are explosive, dynamic, and utterly compelling. The repertoire comes from Lifetime's songbook. Spectrum: The Anthology and the intense stunner of a set closer "Emergency" come from the band's debut album of the same name, and two more pieces, Young's "Allah Be Praised" and John Coltrane's "Big Nick" come from Turn It Over, the second Lifetime disc. DeJohnette goes a step further here in featuring Davis' "Seven Steps to Heaven" in the program. The album the tune draws its title from is the first date Williams appeared on as a member of the trumpeter's group. Also included here is "I Fall in Love Too Easily," which was a staple of the Davis quintet at the time. "Pee Wee" is a Williams original scored for the quintet, while "If" is drawn from Young's classic Blue Note album Unity. Two of the remaining three tunes -- the title cut and the rocking "Love in Blues" -- were co-composed by Trio Beyond and Goldings; "As One" is the other. Musically, this is jazz first and rock second. The readings of both ...
Game
Alison Breitman Game CD  (2004)

Letter To Evans music CDs
CD $16.49
"As far as I can tell, she has a much better-than-average chance of being a household name in a year or two..."- The Mystical Beast"The Game is a well-balanced record, featuring smart production, heartfelt writing and equal shares of down tempo tracks and more 'rocking' numbers...Alison Breitman is a talent not to be ignored and listening to The Game will cement that."- Robbie McCown, Womenfolk "The Game is hauntingly beautiful, irrepressibly catchy, and just plain super...ingenius Aimee-Mann-meets-Mazzy-Star lyrics and tunes..."- Dannielle Romano, Daily CandyThe buzz is only getting louder...Following a successful CD release party at The Cutting Room, NYC, and several months of performing around town, word is spreading - this is a whole different side of Alison. "I wanted to have fun this time around," she says of her genre-switching sophomore album, one that focuses more on the rock side of folk-rock. "I wanted to make a record that was reflective of my life at that moment - the relationships I was in, the music I was listening to, and the games I was playing." The album, aptly titled The Game, does just that. A witty collection of 11 songs, The Game describes relationships in all forms - playful, contentious, unrequited, sexual, loving, and newly born. Both tough and vulnerable, it is an edgy portrayal of a girl taking encounters into her own hands, turning the tables, and playing the games we all know so well.

Alison is no stranger to these experiences ...

Love's Illusions
Todd Gordon Love's Illusions CD  (2006) (Import)

Letter To Evans songs
CD $16.69
On 'Love's Illusions' - "Todd Gordon sings standards with a deep respect for the tradition that they represent...[his] clear, baritone voice offers one of the finest examples of tonal clarity among contemporary male singers who work in jazz. His vocal delivery is a sheer delight"-Jim Santella, All About Jazz (USA)"...a lovely version of 'Both Sides Now' - his voice has that 'velvet fog' quality of Mel Torme"-Bob Muller, world's leading expert on Joni Mitchell coversBIOGRAPHYIn just three years, Todd Gordon has established himself as 'one of the country's most popular singers and entertainers' (The Scotsman). He was an avid Beatles fan until the age of eleven when he first heard Sinatra. From then, he collected every album by Ol' Blue Eyes before broadening his interest in jazz to encompass many other renowned singers and instrumentalists.

In 1975 he met Ella Fitzgerald prior to her show and during the concert she invited him on stage and sang specially to him. He was also fortunate enough to meet some of his other idols, including Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Count Basie, Woody Herman and George Shearing. Spanning a 20 year period, Todd immersed himself in The Great American Song Book, resulting in a repertoire of over well over a thousand songs. His interest in music and singing was passionate, yet private. Then, in 2000, he participated on the Fionna Duncan Vocal Jazz Workshop and that changed everything. ...
