| | Allan Jaffe Rags For Guitar CD Allan Jaffe Discography of CDs
Guitarist/Composer Allan Jaffe has performed in a multitude of different situations, from being a sideman to such jazz greats at Maceo Parker, Julius Hemphill, co-leading the avant-funk band, Slickaphonics, to performing with the Godfather of Soul himself, James Brown. As a composer he has written an opera and two musicals, as well as many songs for guitar and voice. However, it is with his rags for guitar that he unites his penchant for beautiful melodies and harmonies with an understated guitar virtuosity. Jaffe’s sound on the acoustic guitar is big and bell-like, and the clarity of his execution of his own original rags and his arrangements of piano ragtime classics belies the complexity of these pieces. Combining the right-hand technique of a classical player with a blues feel and jazz harmonies, Jaffe has created with his rags a unique musical statement on the guitar. At the beginning of th 20th century, ragtime became the first American musical fad. With this CD, Jaffe takes these classic pieces, adds a few of his own, and ushers us into the 21st century with a new and exciting sound.The sheet music on this CD is available in the Hal Leonard Publication “Ragtime Guitar” by Allan Jaffe.

When Stevie Ray Vaughan's helicopter crashed in August 1990, the world lost more than just a musical giant. Stevie Ray's short life contained all the elements of a hero's journey--from obscurity, through adversity, to glory. His meteoric rise in the public's eye began after a stellar performance at the 1982 Montreaux Jazz Festival, which led to a gig with David Bowie (on LET'S DANCE) and a demo that ended up becoming TEXAS FLOOD, an outstanding debut from one of the most influential ...

TEXAS STATE MUSICIAN NOMINEE Kelli Grant, the Queen of Swing™ & her band, the Swing Kings performance is sponsored by the Mid-America Arts Alliance with co-funding by the National Endowment for the Arts. Kelli received an “Honorable Mention” from Billboard in R&B for her own, “The Way Love Use to Be” from her CD, “Honky Tonk Rock”. With her credentials in R&B and blues growing, this award winning songwriter began writing and focusing on the diverse styles and formats of the blues. The “Blues to Me!“ CD is considered by some to be one of the most comprehensive representatives of the diverse styles and formats of the "blues" ever published. A copulation of those styles: Swing Blues, Jump Blues, Rhythm & Blues, Country Blues, Western Swing Blues and the purest form of blues, Kelli’s award winning low down, dirty, nasty, sounding blues,Nine of the 12 cuts are Kelli’s own, demonstrating her songwriting talents as well as her love for many musical forms.Her patriotic hit, "Stand Up for the U.S.A," proclaimed the unofficial anthem of the 21st Century by Mike Gross, WVOF, Connecticut, was written several years before the obscene act of September 11th, 2001, as a gift for Kelli's father who had served in the Navy aboard the USS Core. Considering 911 to be one of the “bluest” days in America’s history, Kelli felt it was only natural to include it on the “Blues to Me!“ CD. It is respectfully placed at #11 to honor the victims and families of September 11, 2001 …we will always remember.Tagged, the Queen of Swingâ by R&B legend, Carl Perkins all who hear, agree. But it is not as much a title as it is a testament to Kelli’s unique yet awesome signature piano style that “swings” in the truest definition of the word.Publicly proclaimed, an extraordinary entertainer, this Piano Poundin', Bass Kickin', Rhythm Rockin', "Queen of Swing" covers a century of our musical heritage in her original revue, "Swingin' the Blues." To go along with her R&B accolades, Kelli did extensive research in writing her highly acclaimed original revue which is on the Mid-America Arts Alliance touring roster with co-funding by the National Endowment of the Arts. Kelli and her band, “The Swing Kings” carry the audience down a musical highway of Jazz, Blues and Swing from New Orleans to New York City, Chicago to Kansas City and Memphis to Texas. Written and designed by the Queen as a clever and unique way to introduce her recordings, Kelli starts with the “jazz” of the Roarin’ 20’s, moans the depression blues of the 30’s, “swing’s” thru the War torn 40’s, “Rocks” the fabulous 50’s and “twist” into the 60’s. Most of her shows ...
