Spyro Gyra Deep End CD (2004) SACD Hybrid

Good To Go-Go

$16.09

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players. Spyro Gyra has been making high caliber, accessible jazz fusion records since 1976, and 2004's THE DEEP END adds impressively to the band's track record. True to form, THE DEEP END ranges in flavor from easy listening to funky explorations that incorporate samba, Caribbean themes, and rock. The musicianship of the group's two core members, saxophonist Jay Beckenstein and keyboardist Tom Schuman, is top-drawer as usual, as are contributions from guitarist Julio Fernandez and vibraphonist Dave Samuels (who appears on several tracks, including two low-key groovers, "Beyond the Rain" and "Wiggle Room"). The multi-part "Monsoon" is Spyro Gyra at their fusion-based ...

Eric Clapton Slowhand CD (1977) Hybrid; SACD Hybrid

Good To Go-Go

$15.19

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players. SLOWHAND was the album which defined the new cool of Eric Clapton, a sultry, laid-back mix of rock and blues, with a heavy dose of country and southwestern regional sounds to leaven the blend. After LAYLA, SLOWHAND was probably Clapton's most popular, fully realized solo disc. The opening number was by J.J. Cale, whose "After Midnight" had been one of the real joys of the guitarist's first solo excursion, ERIC CLAPTON. "Cocaine," with its slow grinding beat, menacing melodic vamp and one-step from perdition lyrics, was the toughest, most rocking number on SLOWHAND, ...

Lee Ritenour Smoke N' Mirrors CD (2006)

Good To Go-Go

$10.85

Featuring a bevy of world music guests, guitarist Lee Ritenour's Smoke 'N' Mirrors is a stylish, joyous, and laid-back multicultural affair. Among the guests are Brazilian vocalist and keyboardist Daniel Jobim, South African vocalist Zamajobe and guitarist Erik Pilani Paliani, West African bassist Richard Bona, as well as such well-known contemporary jazz icons as pianist Dave Grusin, bassist John Patitucci, percussionist Sheila E., and others. Judiciously, Ritenour has made room for a wide musical palette including funky jams, melodic soul vocal tracks, inspired rhythmic passages, and of course straight-ahead jazz improvisation. While this is an impeccably crafted effort in the tradition of past Ritenour albums, it never comes off ...

Acoustic Alchemy This Way CD (2007)

Good To Go-Go

$12.65

With the release of This Way, Acoustic Alchemy's guitarists Greg Carmichael and Miles Gilderdale celebrate a remarkable two decades since Red Dust & Spanish Lace established the British ensemble as an ever-evolving powerhouse of contemporary jazz. Carmichael and Gilderdale's natural chemistry is very apparent on this set of loose and spirited songs, as is the soloing by the complementing musicians on such jazzy tracks as "Egg," which has a very British, blues-drenched, straight-ahead sound. By contrast, "Ernie" has an exotic Latin jazz flavor complete with great solos by Terry Disley, Jeff Kashiwa, and trombonist Dennis Rollins. Rick Braun makes a guest appearance on "Carlos the King," a racy rock, Latin, and blues fusion that also features Gilderdale's electric guitar and Greg Grainger's percussive energy. With as many brilliant players as there are in the ensemble, the concept of two acoustic guitar players is still the emotional heartbeat of the band's sound. Carmichael and Gilderdale's outstanding playing on "Out of Nowhere" and "This Way" is a sure testament to that concept. "Out of Nowhere" features a hypnotic, swaying acoustic melody over a gentle ...

Stardust Melody: Beloved And Rare Songs Of Hoagy Carmichael (2002) Import; Super Audio CD

Good To Go-Go

$11.29

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players. This project in tribute to composer Hoagy Carmichael is a true labor of love, as trumpeter Dick Sudhalter and friends explore a host of Carmichael's songs -- famous, obscure, and in between. The cast of musicians and singers changes from track to track, with trombonist Tom Artin and reed player Dan Levinson; a solid rhythm section including either Benny Aronov or Bob Dorough on piano, guitarist Howard Alden, bassist Jim Ferguson, and drummer Joe Cocuzzo; and arrangements by either Sy Johnson or Keith Nichols. Dorough is at his best with a very campy vocal in "New Orleans." The sweet southern voice of Ferguson in "Georgia on My Mind" is combined in a warm medley with Barbara Lea's beautiful interpretation of "Can't Get Indiana off My Mind," while ...
