Since the early 1950s, Horace Silver has been one of jazz's most distinctive pianists and composers. Several of his songs have become jazz standards. While Silver is in retirement as of this writing, fortunately he is able to enjoy knowing that his songs are regularly played by both his contemporaries and later generations of jazz musicians. This High Note CD reissues performances of Silver's songs that were recorded between 1997-2006 for records led by organist Charles Earland, tenor saxophonist Houston Person, organist Joey DeFrancesco, trumpeter Russell Gunn, and drummer Joe Chambers. While there is nothing previously unreleased on this CD, listeners who enjoy the works of Silver and do not own the complete High Note sets will find much to enjoy. The Charles Earland performances of "Sister Sadie," "Blowing the Blues Away," and "Strollin'" are particularly exciting and show once again why he was known as "The Mighty Burner." ~ Scott Yanow Funky Pieces Of Silver: The Horace Silver Songbook: The Composer Collection Vol. 1 Music Funky Pieces Of Silver: The Horace Silver Songbook: The Composer Collection Vol. 1 Songs | 1. | Sister Sadie - Charles Earland |

If ever a musician had a pedigree for simultaneously lamenting and celebrating the late Ray Charles, David "Fathead" Newman does. Newman met Charles in 1952 and was a working member of his band from 1954-1964. This program of tunes so closely associated with Charles features the tenor saxophonist in the company of vibist Steve Nelson, John Hicks in the piano chair, Winard ...

The album collects these songs into a cinematic experience designed to transport the listener into an otherworldly realm implied by technology, hallucinogens, an ersatz media environment, and the science fiction 'now world' of Phillip K. Dick.The resulting LP is an adventurous mix of elements ranging from the cool, clipped grooves of 'Doing Shows' and 'NDE' to the Stockhausen vs. On-U Sound assault of 'Remote' and 'Complex' to the frozen ambience of 'Clear'; with nods to a number of influences including Maurizio, Public Image Ltd., Carl Craig, and Brian Eno all discernable in the mix. Listeners willing to take plunge will be richly rewarded for their efforts by these dark, pulsing pieces and their seamless integration into an extended tapestry that engages from the beginning to the end, 74 tripped out minutes later.

Dave Steffen's other venture called, the String Benders, is comprised of four very talented musicians. Dave Steffen and Russ Reiser have written some great songs for this CD. Dave has enjoyed utilizing the excellent vocal talents of the other members in producing tunes with wonderful harmonies. Dave also shows off his excellent guitar virtuoso by playing some hair raising acoustic guitar with slide using an old medicine bottle reminiscence of the old blues artists that were his idols. The CD opens with wind chimes and ...
