Ray Davies Kinks Choral Collection CD (2009)

Eco Da Bossa

$14.38

Orchestral and choral arrangements of rock songs have been a curious subgenre ever since the mid-'60s when Andrew Loog Oldham arranged The Rolling Stones Songbook for syrupy strings, but The Kinks Choral Collection stands apart from the pack for the simple reason that it's not the project of some associate or admirer, but rather chief Kink Ray Davies. His very presence as arranger and lead vocal means The Kinks Choral Collection isn't nearly as stuffy and middlebrow as so many of these orchestral rock albums; he manages to inject some semblance of rock & roll by pushing the songs forward with guitar, and letting the rhythms swing instead of plod. This looseness is the first big surprise of the album. The second is its unrepentant but quite possibly accidental silliness, how many of the major guitar riffs are transposed for choir, an audacious idea in concept that's simply goofy in practice. These choral chants hamper the hardest rocking songs here -- "You Really Got Me," "All Day and All of the Night," "Victoria" -- and they're mercifully absent from the slower tunes, songs that benefit from the gentle layered harmonies. In comparison to most orchestral and choral rock albums, these arrangements are subtle and sensitive, providing a nice counterpart ...

Dave Brubeck Time Out CD (1959) Remastered

Eco Da Bossa

$6.25

Dave Brubeck's TIME OUT ranks alongside Miles Davis' KIND OF BLUE as one of the few advanced jazz masterpieces to achieve great commercial success. In fact, the widespread popularity of TIME OUT, with its cool-toned ambience, smooth style, and elements borrowed from classical music, helped make modern jazz a mainstream phenomenon. The ubiquitous "Take Five" may be overplayed, but that doesn't diminish the joy of its complex melodic hooks, its perfectly executed ...

Al Jarreau Christmas CD (2008)

Eco Da Bossa

$8.89

For the past few decades, Al Jarreau has established himself as a truly modern jazz singer, one for the post-fusion generation--those who grew up with the sounds of the cordial contemporary jazz of George Benson, Spyro Gyra, and Herbie Hancock. CHRISTMAS is Jarreau's first-ever collection of holiday songs on which he wraps his supple, honeyed vocal chords around some traditional Christmas classics. Jazz vocal combo Take 6 lend their voices for "I'll Be Home For Christmas" and the considered, ...

Dan Faulk Spirits In The Night CD (1997)

Eco Da Bossa

$19.19
Dan Faulk is one of the hot, young tenormen in the United States who had been quietly biding his time, playing with Barry Harris, Richard Davis, Jimmy Heath, Louis Hayes, and others before assembling his own trio. On Spirits in the Night he also employs the talents of alto saxophonist Myron Walden for a serious blowout locking of the horns. There is no doubt that Faulk is schooled in the harmonic architectures of bebop, hard bop, and post-bop and can move about the saxophone with ease. He knows all the tunes and can play them in any key. And while many of the tunes here are originals it is the covers that stand out. The reason for this is that Faulk's composing hasn't developed to the level of his other skills. His "The Heath Blues," for instance, takes a Jimmy Heath motif, plays an ostinato series of accents around it, and launches into a solo before passing the pipe to Walden, who solos, and then the theme comes back for a few more arpeggios ...
