| | Miles Davis Evolution Of The Groove CD Miles Davis Discography of CDs
Given the progressive trajectory of Miles Davis's career, and his genre-smashing tendencies, it's likely that if Miles Davis were alive today he'd be incorporating electronica and hip-hop into his jazz palette. The remix project EVOLUTION OF THE GROOVE imagines Miles in a contemporary context, taking classic Miles tracks and treating them with new production, beats, and overdubs from guest musicians including Nas, Carlos Santana, and others.
Nas's guest rap on "Freedom Jazz Dance" works surprisingly well, proving once again that Miles's music is so fluid and forward-thinking that it's adaptable to nearly any context. Elsewhere, Santana brings his soulful guitar work to "It's About That Time," and KIND OF BLUE's "Freddie Freeloader" gets a mid-tempo groove remix, but it's the dense, electronica re-visioning of "Honky Tonk" and "Black Satin," from Miles's electric period, that shine the brightest.

$13.29 CJ has an unusual, but often more effective approach to writing songs for children. For over 10 years, He has established himself as a chameleon-like artist who can comfortably jump from genre to genre including Rock, R & B, Disco, and Country. CJ's vocal is engaging, easy to follow, and always in the front of the mix. Additionally, his emphasis is on the music and vocal portion of children's songs, rather than silly, story-like lyrics. With this focus, kids are more easily engaged, as they won't listen to lyrics if the music and vocal doesn't grab them. Adults will find CJ recordings stimulating too! Whether they're dropping the kids off at school, or driving cross-country, CJ's genre-bending songs and infectiously playful approach to music will steal the hearts of little ones and big kids (adults) everywhere."FUNdamentals" is a wonderful collection of traditional and original songs for children. CJ's playful, genre-hopping style makes all 16 of these tracks a treat for the whole family. "Hey-O" is the perfect opening track, with its optimistically sunny, "It's gonna be a good morning!" attitude. "Mr. Sun", a traditional children's song, is like "Weezer meets The Beach Boys", and will likely become the family favorite. "5 Green And Speckled Frogs" is another traditional song, with very original elements and a huge helping of Bee Gees flair! "Yellow Taxi" is an up-tempo, banjo-driven, movement song, allowing kids to "listen and do" as they imagine ...

Evolution Of The Groove
$25.35 It’s been eleven years since Danny B, Bernie LaBarge and I recorded together and it seems like no time has passed at all. When this pared-down version of the original band got together in my music room in PEI it was as if we had just gigged together earlier in the week and were now going to lay down some tracks. We had no idea what we were going to record – we tossed around a bunch of suggestions and came up with a very eclectic mix of obscure traditionals, old blues chestnuts and a couple of originals. From the first note the old chemistry was there and we were inside each other’s heads. My friend Gordon Belsher (from Guernsey Cove, PEI) set up his board right amongst us in the music room and did a marvelous job of capturing the spontaneous essence of what transpired – he was truly a part of the ensemble. This was a unique experience for me: making music with two dear old buddies with no pressure or time constraints. I can’t remember ever having more fun from recording and I am extremely proud of the result. This is truly an off-the-floor recording with virtually no overdubs and is a valid representation of the live trio. I honestly don’t miss the bass and drums – in fact, it brings to mind an old Duke Ellington quote: “Some people just enjoy the caviar; they don’t want the eggs and onions.”Doug Riley Just because I wear a fedora and play ...
