Dig album
$10.49 On 2005's CHRISTMAS SONGS, Diana Krall applies her sultry vocals and nuanced piano lines to a strong set of holiday classics. In addition to turning in a stirring performance of "The Christmas Song" that would make Nat "King" Cole proud, Krall eases into a swaying version of "Winter Wonderland" and a lush rendition of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." With its dynamic arrangements and pitch-perfect mix of pop and jazz, this album stands alongside other timeless Yuletide outings.

| | Miles Davis Kind Of Blue CD (1959) Bonus Track; Remastered
Dig CD music
$6.39 With BIRTH OF THE COOL, Miles Davis distilled a new tonal palette for jazz. As early as 1954, Miles reacted to the escalating chordal complexity of hard bop by fashioning an evocative blues based on a simple scalar pattern ("Swing Spring"). KIND OF BLUE was the ultimate fulfillment of this approach, with Miles providing his collaborators little more than outlines for melodies and simple scales for improvisation. By emphasizing the blues and the improvisor's melodic gifts, KIND OF BLUE precipitated a major stylistic development--modal jazz.
Charles Mingus had experimented with pedal points throughout the 1950s, and the melodic freedom of Ornette Coleman's Atlantic sides was also predicated on freedom from chord changes. But KIND OF BLUE was to prove the most influential, enduring work of its kind. There was just such a vibe about these 1959 sessions--Miles' lyric genius and burgeoning stardom, the innovative voicings and rarefied touch of pianist Bill Evans, the electrifying presence of Coltrane and Cannonball--that some thirty-plus years after its initial release, KIND ...

| | Incredible Jazz Guitar Of Wes Montgomery CD (1960) SACD Hybrid
Dig CD music
$15.19 This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
John "Wes" Montgomery taught himself to play at the age of nineteen and created a style as influential to jazz guitar as was Charlie Christian's to an earlier generation. Recorded in the early part of his solo career, THE INCREDIBLE JAZZ GUITAR OF WES MONTGOMERY defined standards for hard bop guitar which are as cogent today as they were in 1960.
The album jumps out with the quartet hustling through Sonny Rollins' "Airegin," where Wes performs his often imitated licks with grace and agility. His extended phrases, thematic development, harmonic and melodic embellishment come together in a formidable technique with a heavy swing. An impressive use of octaves and chords coupled with the rejection of a guitar pick in favor of his own thumb allowed Wes' guitar to sing with warmth and with beauty. The lyrical rendition of "Polka Dots And Moonbeams" and his own "D-Natural Blues" are prime examples of the fullness of his lines. To this day, whenever a guitarist uses octaves he runs the risk of comparison to Wes, such was his mastery of this technique. Another aspect of his legacy is the compositions. Since their appearance on this album, "Four On Six" and "West Coast Blues" have become standard jazz repertoire. Yet to remain in awe merely of his approach is to miss the point of what he has to say. Montgomery's technique ...
| | Burning Heads Escape CD (1999) Enhanced CD
Dig music CDs
$11.39 Escape found Burning Heads broadening their punk sound, expanding the traditional elements to incorporate hardcore and even reggae stylings into their tried and true format, and introduced the group to the American audience in the process. Sounding like a cross between Suicidal Tendencies and Sublime, Burning Heads are easy to enjoy, offering fast-paced upbeat punk that overflows with memorable hooks that keep the music fresh. "S.O.S." stands out as one of the better tracks, taking a New Found Glory approach with singalong choruses that keep one's head bobbing with pleasure. The most memorable song is certainly "B@byLone By Skate" which finds the bandmembers abandoning their whole punk style and opting for a complete reggae sound, which they do exceptionally well. It provides a welcome retreat from the more rapid-fire approach ...
| | Joe Locascio Home CD (1998)
Dig songs
$13.85 Heart Music gave Joe LoCascio's followers a pleasant surprise with Home, which marked the first time he had played unaccompanied solo-piano for an entire CD. Having no accompaniment at all can really expose an artist's weaknesses -- there's no drummer, guitarist or bassist to provide any type of safety net. But thankfully, LoCascio proves that he doesn't need one, and he rises to the occasion nicely on introspective, lyrical versions of material ranging from "Stairway to the Stars" and "All the Things You Are" to the traditional gospel anthem "Amazing Grace." LoCascio is in fine form on no less than three songs written or co-written by Billy Strayhorn ("Rain Check," "Star Crossed Lovers" and the haunting "Passion Flower"), and his appealing interpretation of Thelonious Monk's "Little Rootie Tootie" makes one wish the quirky tune were better known. LoCascio ...

| | Gerald Veasley Love Letters CD (1999)
Dig CD music
$9.65 On his Heads Up recordings of the 1990s, Gerald Veasley set out to have his cake and eat it too--he wanted to record melodic, accessible pop-jazz that had commercial appeal and didn't frighten away NAC radio stations, but he also wanted to record music that had some substance. And up to a point, he was successful. Love Letters, like his previous Heads Up dates, isn't the five-star gem he's quite capable of recording, but it's more substantial than 90% of the instrumental pop that NAC stations were playing at the time. Love ...

| | Paula Frazer Leave The Sad Things Behind CD (2005)
Dig songs
$14.69 As time has gone on, the putative differences between alt-country and classic country and any further number of subdivisions have all seemed to blend into a haze, creating a zone where souls can pursue their own muses to their hearts' content. Paula Frazer's own work since the end of Tarnation has confirmed this, with Leave the Sad Things Behind being an album that can be heard through any number of contexts -- immediate reference points include Patsy Cline, Lee Hazlewood (the fuzz guitar leading into a brass arrangement starting "No Other" is a killer tip of the hat), even some classic Motown on the uptempo "Funny Things." The trick lies in synthesizing it all into something distinct, a gift that Frazer happily possesses much like her fellow spirits in the Walkabouts -- so when there's a sudden blast of feedback and keening toward the end of "Watercolor Lines" that's more Siouxsie than June Carter, she can turn it around on "It's Not Ordinary" with a performance, touched with just the right amount of echo, that takes a listener back to 1969 just like that. Of her core backing band, Patrick ...
