Almost Piano = MIDI synthesizers, at least in this collection of ten instrumentals from Leon Russell. One of many self-recorded and self-released albums Russell kicked out in the new millennium, this sequenced and sprightly offering clearly betrays its origins as a computerized creation. As careful as the production sounds, the compositions often seem as if Russell just set up and started playing, giving the tracks their titles afterward. Still, Russell remains a fluid, engaging player, and devoted Leon Russell fans might enjoy putting this on as background music. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Almost Piano = MIDI synthesizers, at least in this collection of ten instrumentals from Leon Russell. One of many self-recorded and self-released albums Russell kicked out in the new millennium, this, like so many of his latter-day LPs, is stiff, sequenced, and sprightly, too clearly betraying its origins as a computerized creation. For as careful as the production sounds, the compositions often sound almost incidental, as if Russell just set up and started playing, giving the tracks their titles afterward. While there are far worse ways to spend a half-hour or so -- Russell remains a fluid, engaging player -- it's also not especially engaging, either, and it's hard to imagine anyone but the most devoted Leon Russell fan putting this on as background music. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars LEON STONKS THE KEYS AGAIN*****
Great to have some new Leon material to listen to. Albeit, I understand that 'Almost Piano',- along with 'Bad Country and 'In Your Dreams'- were previously only available at Leon's concerts. Notable here are 'Piano Polka', 'Kiss My Eyes' and 'Big Easy'. As the title indicates, this is an instrumental album of some great Leon tunes. All I can say you will have to wait for my reviews of the other 2 albums purchased as I am still enjoying this one too much even to open them yet. Highly recommended to all Leon fans. Especially those of us still waiting for the chance to see him live.

Japanese limited edition comes in a vinyl style sleeve with the original cover art. After a five year recording hiatus following the emotionally eloquent TUNNEL OF LOVE (and a subsequent world tour), Springsteen returned in 1992 with the tandem release of HUMAN TOUCH and LUCKY TOWN. Though released separately, both albums signalled the singer's more mature preoccupation with introspective, complicated themes of desire, despair and regret. The albums were also Springsteen's ...

B.A.B.Y.B.O.Y (L.T.M.J.)Since age four L.T.M.J. has been known to many as B.A.B.Y.B.O.Y., and as a young man with many talents. Born the third child in a family of seven and the first boy in the family he always had many expectations to fulfill. Unlike many underprivileged children who weren't blessed with a father figure, L.T.M.J. was. But growing up in a poverty-stricken area obviously presented him with the challenges of the ghetto. By the time he was age twelve his mother knew that in order to save her street wise preteen, she had to relocate from what she had known as home all her life, East St. Louis, IL. She then decided to move to Minneapolis, Minnesota, hoping for relief from gang violence and drugs. Unfortunately, her intentions failed her. Young B.A.B.Y.B.O.Y. still was introduced to the life of a hustler and without her blessing left home. Now face to face with his chosen life style he had to prove himself street worthy. L.T.M.J. was no stranger to hustling because everyday he paid for his and his sister's school lunches by selling candy and gum to other students. He knew that one way or another he had to hustle to survive which led to ambition beyond his young age. By age thirteen young B.A.B.Y.B.O.Y. was penitentiary bound. He knew very few boundaries and his mentality was set for personal gain. With this approach into his adolescent years, it wasn't long before he found himself in shootouts, friends dying in his arms and finally prison. Fortunately, he was still very young and ...

Faruq Z. Bey (born Jessie Davis)[1] is a saxophonist/composer from Detroit, Michigan, USA. He is best known for his work with Griot Galaxy. Griot played hard free jazz with distinct compositions, often by Bey. Odd meters and polyrhythms were a frequent feature of Griot tunes, which would give way to free sections. Originally started in 1972, Griot Galaxy settled into its most stable line-up around 1980, when Bey was joined by saxophonists David McMurray and Anthony Holland, as well as bassist Jaribu Shahid and drummer Tani Tabal. Popular in Detroit for a Free Jazz band (often pulling audiences of a few hundred people), Griot toured Europe in the mid-80s and was at the height of its international acclaim when Bey was in a serious motorcycle accident that left him in a coma.Almost a decade passed before Bey returned to performing. He re-emerged with an all woodwind ensemble called The Conspiracy Winds Ensemble. He began to play in Speaking in Tongues and Hakim Jami's Street Band. He joined forces with The Northwoods Improvisers, who've largely devoted their last several releases to Bey's music. His frequent collaborators, saxophonists Michael Carey and Skeeter Shelton, join him on most of the Northwoods Improviser's recordings. He also currently plays in Kindred- a quartet with Kennith Green, Kevin Callaway and Joel Peterson- and in Odu Afrobeat Orchestra.Some of his most noted releases are: "Kins", "Opus Krampus" and "Live at the DIA" with Griot Galaxy and "Auzar" and "Ashirai Pattern" with The Northwoods Improvisers.Bey has published two books of poetry, Year of the Iron Sheep and Etudes in Wanton Nesses, in addition to a theory book Toward a "Ratio"nal Aesthetic (1989).----------------------------------------------------------M.L. Liebler (born Michael Lynn Liebler in 1953 in Detroit, Michigan) is the author of several books of poetry including the 2001 finalist for The Paterson Poetry Prize and winner of The 2001 Wayne State University Board of Governors’ Award for Written In Rain: New & Selected (2000) and The Moon A Box (New Issues Press, 2004) which received The 2005 Paterson Poetry Award of Excellence.His forthcoming books are Wide Awake in Someone Else's Dream (Wayne State University Press, April 2008) and Working Words: An Anthology of Labor, Art & Literature (Coffeehouse Press, 2009).Much of his work has been published in both national and international journals and reviews, and he has recorded compact discs of poetry and music with such well-known musicians ...
