The wildly dynamic SIX LITANIES TO HELIOGABALUS finds avant-garde composer/saxophonist John Zorn calling upon the fierce trio of vocalist Mike Patton, bassist Trevor Dunn, and drummer Joey Baron, who were featured on 2006's MOONCHILD and ASTRONOME, for a set of restless tracks inspired by the notorious Roman emperor of the title, also known as Elagabalus. Bolstering the already-potent sound of the group are a female choir, organ player Jamie Saft, electronics expert Ikue Mori, and Zorn himself, resulting in an alternately beautiful and frightening album.

Circle is a label that specializes in reissuing rare acetate recordings that were made by various transcription services during the late '30s and early '40s for sale not to the record buying public but exclusively to radio stations for broadcast purposes. For this reason the material issued on this compilation is quite rare and does not appear in standard Richard Himber session-by-session discographies. These excellent sides were recorded for the World Broadcasting System between 1938 and 1940, during a time when Himber was technically a Victor recording ...

Elin's story is one of dogged determination. Born Kathleen Celia Elin Melgarejo, she's a Swede who fell in love with Brazilian music, then fell in love with jazz, decided she would learn Portuguese and immerse herself in Brazilian culture, and finally put it all together to become a singer of Brazilian jazz. Lazy Afternoon is the evidence that she succeeded beautifully in accomplishing her goal. Performing both original compositions and standards by George and Ira Gershwin (a swinging, upbeat "Fascinating Rhythm" opens the set), Milton Nascimento, Antonio Carlos Jobim and others, Elin proves a skillful improviser, a clever manipulator of melody, and a confident bandleader. Moving from sambas to more straightforward jazz, she possesses a genial tone and a skillful, imaginative delivery. The steady rolling of "I Love New York," her tribute to her adopted city (she worked at the World Trade Center), is sung in a spirited manner devoid of somberness, while the Brazilian-originated material -- including the deliciously breezy "Doralice," which she heard sung by Joao Gilberto, and the scatted "Casa Forte," borrowed from Elis Regina -- leave no doubt that this European with Brazil in her blood has thoroughly carried out her dream. ~ Jeff Tamarkin
Born Kathleen Elin Melgarejo, Elin was raised in Sweden by Peruvian and Irish parents, and was steeped in multiculturalism from birth. She grew up speaking Swedish, English, Spanish and French, and later in life added German, Italian and Portuguese to her arsenal of languages. As a student, Elin traveled throughout Europe studying various instruments from the age of seven. At age 15, she began her professional singing career as lead vocalist in the Swedish pop/rock band 4U, with whom she released ...

$16.19
San Francisco Bay Area acid rock guitarist John Cipollina (1943-1989) was a member of many rock groups in the '60s, '70s, and '80s, most notable among them Quicksilver Messenger Service. Cipollina never really had a solo career, but his discography does list one album under his own name, sort of, a record usually referred to as John Cipollina Raven. It isn't actually a solo disc, either, however. In late 1975, a year in which he had already participated in a Quicksilver reunion (Solid Silver) and served as a member of Man (Maximum Darkness), Cipollina hosted the first of a series of rehearsals at his studio that resulted in the formation of Raven, a new band made up of Bay Area stalwarts who, like him, had been members of other area bands. Pianist Nicky Hopkins, for example, had been in Quicksilver, while singer/keyboardist Jim McPherson had been in another Cipollina-led band, Copperhead, a couple of years earlier. But in addition to Cipollina, the other main member of Raven was guitarist Greg Douglass. The band rehearsed for six months and then played, according to annotator Mike Somavilla, "at best, maybe, 11 shows" at such venues as the Keystone nightclub in Berkeley, CA. Then they drifted apart. That probably would have been it, except that in 1980 Cipollina sold some of ...
