| | Leslie West Band New York State Of Mind CD Leslie West Band Discography of CDs
Leslie West was the axeman who led Mountain to glory in the late 1960s as America's power-trio answer to Cream, but he's also enjoyed an extensive solo career. NEW YORK STATE OF MIND, part of a series of formerly bootlegged live West recordings, hails from a 1994 show that finds West revisiting some former glories by delving into such riff-rocking Mountain classics as "Mississippi Queen" and "Nantucket Sleighride," as well as guitar-god showpieces like Jimi Hendrix's "Voodoo Chile," and even a rocked-up take on the Billy Joel-penned tune that gives this album its title.
New York State Of Mind was recorded live at The Lone Star in 1994 while Leslie was promoting his then new album of Dodgin The Dirt. The performance features two tracks from the album Whiskey Train and the Billy Joel cover New York State of Mind. Billy Joel of course was a friend of Leslies and grew up with him in Long Island where the two played in various competing bands. Other tracks included in this live set are Mississippi Queen, Never In My Life, Blood Of The Sun and Nantucket Sleighride.

$13.45 Leslie West isn't a particularly innovative guitarist, and his style and approach have barely moved an eyelash since he first broke into the public consciousness with Mountain back in the early '70s, but boy can this guy get tone! West still sings with a gear-shredding roar and his guitar lines sound heavier than plutonium on this set of blues-rockers, and if he doesn't exactly do anything that he hasn't done before, his laser-on-steroids precision as a guitar ...

New York State Of Mind CD music
$12.89 Jack Bruce must have enjoyed his 2005 get-together with Cream so much that, when Clapton and Baker were unwilling to continue the collaboration, he rang up Robin Trower to renew the brief power trio fling they had in the mid-'80s. The Trower-Bruce pairing had released only two albums, B.L.T. and Truce, and was dormant since 1982, so this 2007 reunion was somewhat of a continuation of the project, albeit one separated by a quarter century. The results impressively ...

| | Kim Robertson Moonrise CD (1987)
New York State Of Mind album
$16.19 Moonrise is a rich and diverse collection of original, classical and international pieces. Hear the warm sound of a rare 200 year old classical harp with songs by composer George Winston and Kim Robertson herself. Also included are traditional and classical works even more ancient than this beautiful harp.Kim Robertson's name has become synonymous with the gentle but powerfully evocative Celtic harp, an instrument which for a thousand years held within its strings and wood the spiritual heartbeat and poetic breath of the Celtic race. Kim Robertson's remarkable ability to reach into its strings and pull from it hidden treasures has made her one of the most popular harpists performing today.Combining the authentic traditions of the Celtic Harp with a dynamic flair for world rhythms and on-the-edge improvisation, Kim Robertson has stretched the boundaries of the harp. This daring redefinition of harp music is at its most vibrant in her concert appearances. Remarking on her greatest love, live performance, she says, "That's where the magic is...between the audience and the performer...that's when I truly express myself. Without that experience, I don't think I could make meaningful recordings. Not only can I see how people are responding, but I take more chances playing live."Kim Robertson's repertoire includes timeless Celtic melodies, classical, Renaissance and medieval works, and original compositions which, since the release of her 1991 album, Angels in Disguise, also feature her beautiful lyrics and vocals.Born and raised in Wisconsin, Kim Robertson began studying piano at age eight, continuing on into college as a piano major. I was in Kim Robertson's senior year of high school that Kim first began to learn the pedal or orchestral harp. "I was never a very good pedal harp student since I was not interested in a symphonic career. I found it fascinating only as a sideline."Kim Robersons introduction to improvisation early on by a jazz pianist enlarged her musical vision, freeing her from the need for written music. This freedom influenced both her piano and classical harp training, building trust in ...

New York State Of Mind music CDs
$15.95 Justin Handley spent a year in the Gambia, West Africa studying kora under the Jobarteh family, where he was given the name Bakary Jobarteh. On his return to the US he created an ensemble based on traditional kora music, but with the additional influence of the banjo - the kora's carribean baby.With the skill of Phil Wisor on Banjo and guitar, and the beautiful voices of Judy Hoist, Elisabeth and Erin Weaver, and Rowan White, this album was compiled in about a months time in the deep winter of Western Massachusetts.The album is traditional West African music, but with the dream aesthetic placed onto it by its current players reaches a new and beautiful place.What have people said about Ebaraka? "Intelligently and affectionately enlivening the traditional Kora music of The Gambia and cultivating a charming and delicate fusion with western styles and instruments, this creative friend of some of the Gambia's most cherished teachers lovingly weaves a sound both warmly touching and jubilant. Having spent a year absorbing the beauty and mystery of the traditional music and the central cultural ...
