Purchase Jazz Profiles CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Norah Jones Fall CD (2009)
Jazz Profiles
 $14.44    
With The Fall, Norah Jones completes the transition away from her smooth cabaret beginnings and toward a mellowly arty, modern singer/songwriter. Jones began this shift on 2007's Not Too Late, an album that gently rejected her tendencies for lulling, tasteful crooning, but The Fall is a stronger, more cohesive work, maintaining an elegantly dreamy state that's faithful to the crooner of Come Away with Me while feeling decidedly less classicist. Some of this could be attributed to Jones' choice of producer, Jacquire King, best-known ...

| | Ulver Perdition City CD (2003)
Jazz Profiles
$17.19
Over the early 2000s, Ulver has managed to remain prolific while avoiding a true full-length follow-up to the band's 2000 album, Perdition City. There have been three EPs, two movie soundtracks, and an EP compilation. 1st Decade in the Machines, the inevitable remix album, is another one to add to the list. Another band that Ulver head Garm has been involved with, Arcturus, did a remix album a few years ago, too -- Disguised Masters -- and it was pretty entertaining, largely because of all the unexpected stylistic curve balls (trip-hop, jungle, gangsta rap, etc.). The cast of remix contributors on that album was not so well-known, but here, it includes such familiar folks as Viennese laptop all-stars Fennesz and Pita, noise luminaries Merzbow and V/Vm, and other noteworthy names such as Jazzkammer, Third Eye Foundation, and Stars of the Lid. At the same time, the results here are less surprising than on Disguised ...

| | Thin Line Between Love And Hate/The Persuaders CD (2007)
Jazz Profiles
$13.59 
Collectors' Choice Music has gathered the Persuaders' Thin Line Between Love and Hate (1971) and self-titled follow-up The Persuaders (1972) onto this single CD. In deference to their Philly soul leanings, the quartet originated with Virginia natives Richard Poindexter and Robert Poindexter who eventually made their way to New York City. Once in the Big Apple the pair cut sides as the Poindexter Brothers prior to penning sizable hits for, among others, the O'Jays ("I'll Be Sweeter Tomorrow") and Linda Jones ("Hypnotized"). Before long they were joined by fellow Virginians Douglas "Smokey" Scott (vocals), Charles Stodgehill (vocals), and James "B.J." Barnes (vocals). After a bit of creative financing, the song "Thin Line Between Love and Hate" garnered attention from the Atlantic Records subsidiary Atco, who actually went a step further bestowing them with their own Win or Lose imprint. The single made it to the number one slot on the R&B charts and had a significant crossover into the pop survey, landing comfortably in the Top 20. On the LP, the singers are supported by Angel Luis Panaiagua, Jr. (guitar), Paul Young (vibraphone), Harry "Al" Giscombe (bass), and Leroy Quick (drums). In addition to the album's well-known title track, there are a few deeper cuts that not only reflect the Persuaders' remarkable harmonies, but are likewise time capsules of their era. "Let's Get Down Together" is a musical come-on wrapped up in a breezy waltz and is notable for such phrases as "Ooh Girl, I like what I see..." and "I'd like to paint your wagon, baby...." By contrast, "Blood Brothers" takes on the topic of inner city turmoil and social upheaval with a bit of Black Pride mixed into the larger "we are all one" mentality that was meant to unite. Other fun and funky selections from Thin Line are the Sly Stone influenced "Thigh Spy," "You Musta Put Something in Your Love," "Thanks for Loving Me," and "Love Gonna Pack Up (And Walk Out)," with the latter becoming the groups second Top Ten R&B single.
Even though The Persuaders (1973) wasn't privy to the success of their inaugural outing, in some respects it is the better of the two. One factor could be the replacement of Barnes and Stodgehill -- with John Tobias and Thomas Lee Hill -- from the Majestics. Interestingly, the Poindexters were mentioned only by way of producer and writer credits for Bobby and a sole co-author nod to Richard for the hard-to-describe "Bad Bold and Beautiful Girl." While the lush orchestration suggests a Barry White production, Tobias' prominent doo wop leads and spoken verses are unique. Lines such as "There's sump'tin about you I just dig/I've had some of the finest women in the world/But they can't compare to you" gives an indication of the down-to-earth vibe and hearkens back to the delivery of the aforementioned "Let's Get Down Together." Tobias' rich bass pipes resurface on the mid-tempo "My Love Goes Good When Things Go Bad" and a tune titled "I Want to Make It with You" which had been the first number one for the David Gates led soft pop group Bread. The other cover of note is the overhaul of the Drifters' "Please Stay" -- which gained ...
