The Wire (p.66) - "This suite in five movements for string quartet, jazz quartet and his own electric guitar is a thoughtfully conceived and meticulously executed negotiation between improvised and written music..." Down Beat (p.80) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Some of THE WHEEL's most exciting moments come out of carefully mapped passages, especially the kora-like plucked strings on 'Blues Circle' and the bowing-and-blowing unisons on 'Rising.'"

| | Billie Holiday Love Songs V.2 CD (2003) Bonus Tracks; Japan
Wheel songs
$36.99 Another Legacy title fashioned out of the recordings released in total on the exhaustive Lady Day: The Complete Billie Holiday on Columbia box set of her early career. No complaints here, as few can afford such abundant booty, and because the label sticks to tried and true themes. Although, you may prefer her previous swing record, and the bluesy compilation of her work with velvet-touched tenor-saxophonist Lester Young, Love Songs, Vol. 2 is another antidote to the perception that Lady Day could only excel at mournful, striking, downer tunes such as her most famous work, "God Bless the Child," "Strange Fruit," and "Until the Real Thing Comes Along." Here are 16 sides of the more whimsical, sassy, mischievous, or laughingly resigned Billie Holiday, typified by the unabashedly lustful "I Must Have That Man," the chuckle of Oscar Hammerstein's "Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man," and even Hammerstein's depressingly named but actually bouncy "Why Was I Born." Though she's not as unfettered as Louis Armstrong (who, for instance, wrung much more humor with Ella Fitzgerald out of their later '50s look at "A Fine Romance," Holiday's version here from 1936), her behind-the-beat singing remains a flavorful reading on these classic Tin Pan Alley tunes. Of course, there are a few "blue" Holiday tunes, such as Irving Berlin's "This Year's Kisses," and Teddy Wilson & His Orchestra can't help but inject their melancholy notes here and there. So it's not exactly a picnic, but it is once again a multifaceted look at the total talent of one of the best jazz interpreters who ever entered a studio, of the languid tantalization of love just out of reach. ~ Jack Rabid

| | Curved Air Air Cut CD (1973) (Import) Germany; Remastered; Digipak
Wheel album
$18.79 Curved Air's fourth album featured a very different lineup and is considered by many a weaker effort. Of course, it does not have the bombast of Phantasmagoria (Francis Monkman's classical touch is cruelly missed), but it still has its share of strong moments. By 1973, only singer Sonja Kristina remained of the original members, but her voice suffices to keep the flame burning. She and bassist Mike Wedgewood, introduced with the previous LP, are joined by drummer Jim Russell, guitarist Gregory Kirby, and an ...

| | Jen Lowe From The End Of This Hallway CD (2008)
Wheel album
$7.79  If you are looking for a musical artist that will sweep you away in a sprightly wind of acoustic Pop/Americana nirvana, look no further than Jen Lowe. Having toured with prestigious national and international artists, Lowe is a journey-woman through and through; armed with a beaten-up backpack stuffed with sentimental keep-sakes of a woman both beloved and scorned. The songs on her debut solo CD, “From the End of this Hallway”, play like bittersweet battle-cries of a great victory won against fallen relationships and personal struggles in a coming-of-age war. And when the dust settles, there’s the lone voice of Jen’s soul, swaying gently, beautifully, between each song like a feather dropping from the heavens between the limbs of Oak trees. Jen's eternal search for balance and connection in her life comes through strongly in her writing and performance. Never taking herself too seriously in life or on the stage, you will often find her giggling and at ease as she tells a funny anecdote or reaches into her soul to share the darker parts of her journey. She is a true natural performer, whether she’s pounding ferociously on a djembe or gently finger-picking her old guitar; as a multi-instrumentalist, Jen’s shows are spontaneous, fun and never predictable. And it truly resonates. Her stage presence, songwriting, and musical ability have instantly captured audiences from state to state. Her lovelorn ...
| | Devi Get Free CD (2008)
Wheel CD music
$12.69 "This stuff ought to be the new sound of the city, the new sound of the suburbs and has the snazz to be the first real rock breakout in a long time." – Midwest Record "Get Free has everything a band ought to deliver: catchy, melodic songs, gorgeously soaring vocals, killer musicianship and a centerpiece that's a genuine classic…will captivate just as many singer/songwriter fans as headbangers. Definitely one of the year's very best." - Lucid CultureDevi’s debut album, Get Free, bursts out of the gate with the powerpop gem "Another Day" and closes with a six-minute cover of "The Needle and the Damage Done" that ranges from dreamy to ferociously jamming. This is “an utterly bad-ass power trio,” says Midwest Record, led by "one of the most exhilarating fret-burners around." (TrifectaGram) Debra gets compared to singers Sheryl Crow and PJ Harvey and guitarists Jimi Hendrix and David Gilmour, yet brings a fresh, sharp energy of her own to the guitar and her songwriting. Bonham-style drummer John Hummel and powerhouse bassist Dan Grennes respond fluidly to her every move. Serving the song comes first, but when Devi flexes its collective chops, watch out. The band "jams with joy and abandon. If adrenaline, crescendos, and heart-wrenchingly beautiful playing are something you would enjoy, get your ass down there." (Lucid Culture)“Get Free is about the longing for love and the longing for God, and the crazy things we pursue—from sex to drugs to relationships—to ...
