A natural leader like Ralph Marterie was valued by musicians and music companies alike and Mercury Records approached Ralph to record for the label in 1948. The resulting success of a series of singles built up a solid following for the band and a tourin

Caravan album
$9.25 Originally released as two albums on the Charter label as LENA GOES LATIN &
After a lengthy and successful run on RCA from 1955-1962, Lena Horne cut a few albums for the small Charter label. Picking up on the period craze for all things Latin -- mambo, bossa nova, or otherwise -- Horne recorded this 1963 collection of swinging, Latinized standards for the company. With husband and bandleader Lennie Hayton directing a crack group through some fine Shorty Rogers arrangements, Horne shows off her powerful and supple voice on both obscure fare ("Cuckoo in the Clock") and perennial classics from Tin Pan Alley ("My Blue Heaven"). And while some might balk at the Mancini-like lounge touches informing highlights like the fiercely delivered "From This Moment On" and a bravura reading of "Night and Day," one must ask what would be better to temper the driving rhythms, frenetic horn charts, and Horne's theatrical phrasing. Taking the edge off further, there's the lilting bossa nova of Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Meditation." A fine disc for any Lena Horne fan to pick up. [The 1991 DRG reissue couples ...
| | Stan Getz West Coast Jazz CD (1955)
Caravan CD music
$10.79 This 1999 reissue contains seven bonus tracks not on the original release.
Digitally remastered using 20-bit technology by Chris Herles (Polygram Studios).
In 1955 the difference between East/West Coast jazz was a hot topic, with critics and fans capable of taking zealous musical alliances with one or the other. The title of this disc, West Coast Jazz, was conceived as a joke, considering all musicians involved were originally from the East Coast and did not play exclusively in the laid-back, commercially profitable, cool style, as pigeonholed by some. Stan Getz was in California for his part in the film the Benny Goodman Story, where he picked up a week long gig at Zardi's in Hollywood. The pickup band that greeted him featured a great rhythm section: Lou Levy (piano), Leroy Vinnegar (bass), and Shelly ...

| | Jimmy Smith Home Cookin' CD (1959) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Caravan album
$8.99 Smith's superb keyboard technique is only half of his musical magic. The other is his astonishing ability to paint atmospheres and create exquisite moods. The feeling of this album is perfectly evinced, relaxed and cool, spacious yet textured and sophisticated enough to keep the ear consistently intrigued. The album's title and cover photo are an homage to a soul food diner in Harlem called Kate's Home Cooking, and the tunes parallel a range of subtle, carefully prepared flavors.
Traditional slow and mid-tempo blues predominate, such as "See See Rider" and "Come On Baby," kept fresh though Percy France's Lester Young-influenced playing, Kenny Burrell's clean guitar lines and Smith's deeply soulful leads. The sly riffing on "Gracie" and the jazz thematics of "Apostrophe" are also highlights. HOME COOKIN' offers the perfect blend of style and substance, of traditional soul and modern cool (not to mention five bonus tracks unissued on the original LP) in a mix that's tasty and utterly satisfying.
This Japanese import contains a 24-bit remastering of Jimmy Smith's (organ) Blue Note era release Home Cookin' (1959). Although he never gained 'household name' status, his expansive catalog of recordings has long been considered as essential listening for lovers of post-bop and jazz keyboard. Joined by Donald Bailey (drums), Kenny Burrell (guitar), with occasional contributions from Percy France (tenor sax), Smith winds his trio through a selection of sublime R&B standards and fundamental originals. "See See Rider" ...
