On Creole Nocturne, pianist Tom McDermott and cornetist Connie Jones offer an intimate trip back in time when jazz was still connected to the blues. The title is a nifty twist on Chopin's E-Flat Nocturne, re-imagined here as New Orleans jazz. Even though returning to New Orleans jazz strikes a traditional chord, cornet-piano duets are hardly the norm, and Creole Nocturne thus offers a twist on both the original style and McDermott and Jones' contemporary interpretation of it. The material is a mix of McDermott originals and a handful of classic tunes, and, despite the distance in time between "When It's Sleepy Time Down South" and "Danza de las Muńecas" (The Wrist Dance), the material melds together well. The pianist and cornetist also have a knack for pulling in material like Louis Moreau Gottschalk's "Danza," a piece that may have more to do with the roots of jazz than jazz itself. The inclusion of such pieces along with Jelly Roll Morton's "King Porter Stomp" creates an expansive set list. The duo only varies the program on two tracks, Spencer Williams' "Tishomingo Blues" and McDermott's "I Don't Want Nuthin' for Christmas," both which feature vocals by McDermott. McDermott and Jones offer sensitive supportive backing along with imaginative solo work, making Creole Nocturne a rich, varied recording, filled with lively performances. ~ Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr.

| | Muddy Waters Folk Singer CD (1964) Remastered
Creole Nocturne CD music
$8.49  
Ultradiscs are mastered from the original master tapes using Mobile Fidelity's proprietary mastering technique, then plated with 24-karat gold and housed in a stress-resistant lift-lock jewel box.
"You Can't Lose What You Ain't Never Had" and "The Same Thing" did not appear on the original version of FOLK SINGER. They were recorded at a separate session in April 1964, three months after FOLK SINGER was released.
The title and cover photo of this 1963 recording were an attempt to cash in on the burgeoning American folk revival, but this is pure acoustic blues. Muddy began his career as a Robert Johnson-style solo acoustic performer, and the tunes on FOLK SINGER hark back to those days. He's accompanied sparsely by Willie Dixon, drummer Clifton James and a young Buddy Guy, who provide a stark, deliberate backdrop for Muddy's rich vocal and expressive bottleneck guitar work. The richness of Muddy's baritone is showcased effectively here, with more room than usual for his voice to resonate.
The low-key setting allows Muddy to explore a fuller dynamic range as well. From the romantic yearning of "Long ...
| | Philipp Fankhauser Talk To Me CD (2004)
Creole Nocturne music CDs
$12.65
Talk To Me is the title of the latest album from Philipp Fankhauser, the highly regarded blues artist based in Thun, Switzerland, and his first for Memphis International Records. Fankhauser is well known to European audiences but he is also familiar to North Americans as a result of his role as guest vocalist with the band of the late blues great Johnny "Clyde" Copeland. While the bulk of Talk To Me is comprised of l Fankhauser originals it does include two Johnny Copeland compositions and Shemekia Copeland, Johnny's daughter and a renowned star in her own right, penned the liner notes. "Philipp will always be very special to the Copeland family; his music is special for just about everyone," she wrote.The album includes a version of "Members Only," a song that was an R&B hit for Bobby Bland in the 1980s and produced for Fankhauser by Dennis Walker (Robert Cray, B.B. King, Maria Muldaur) with an appearance by the Memphis Horns. Bobby Bland finally met Fankhauser in the '90s and expressed great admiration for the Swissman's interpretation of one of his signature songs.Downbeat's review ...

Creole Nocturne CD music
$6.39
Known for a style reminiscent of a young Frank Sinatra, Harry Connick, Jr. takes a drastic turn on SHE, choosing the funkier side of his New Orleans roots. Enlisting the likes of George Porter Jr. and Ziggy Modeliste (the Meters' rhythm section), Connick easily shifts into a more '70s-oriented vibe. The Earth, Wind, & Fire sounding background vocals which wash over "Between Us" are preceded by Connick's grittier phrasing in the title track where he plays an organ like a man possessed. ...
| | George Cables Morning Song CD (2008)
Creole Nocturne music CDs
$13.89
Morning Song is a compelling portrait of pianist George Cables. Best known as a sideman for his work with everyone from Art Pepper and Woody Shaw to Dexter Gordon and Bobby Hutcherson, Cables has nonetheless amassed a sizable catalog as a leader. This date, issued on High Note in 2008, was recorded in 1980 at the famed Keystone Korner in San Francisco. Cables is featured in two different contexts here, and judging by the sound of the recording, it comes from two different gigs. Cables plays solo on six of the ten cuts here. They range from standards like "Who Can I Turn To," "Polka Dots and Moonbeams," "As Time Goes By," and "I Remember Clifford," to a pair of tunes by Bobby Hutcherson: "Stroll" and "Little B's Poem." These performances are simply stellar, and in places breathtaking. Cables is one of the great rhythmic pianists out there who seamlessly weaves the long jazz piano tradition of players like Art Tatum and Teddy Wilson ...

This is a story of a connection made through the magic of CDBaby! Italian film-maker Francesco Paladino was browsing through CDBaby one evening and came across the music of Gayla Drake Paul, and he loved it so much he ordered several CDs. Gayla, being a good CDBaby member, e-mailed Francesco promptly, thanking him for his order. He e-mailed back, asking if she wanted to collaborate on a film, and Gayla immediately said “Yes!” A few weeks of discussion, planning and mutual inspiration later, and a project was born! This is the soundtrack CD for the movie, called “Bluesblood and Mud Flowers,” which is currently in production in Italy. As ...
