| | Michael Lington CD Michael Lington Discography of CDs
On his debut, Danish saxophonist Michael Lington shows that he's ready to give smooth jazz biggies Dave Koz and Boney James a run for the money. Lington plays with a plush, reedy tone, with subtle R&B influences. In fact, he used to play in the bands of soul jazz stalwarts Randy Crawford and Bobby Caldwell, the latter making a guest appearance on "Tell It Like It Is." Smooth and lighthearted, Lington proves himself a contender on the Quiet Storm front his first time out.
Recorded at Sonic Jungle and Lighthouse Recorders, North Hollywood, California.

$15.19 SKY DIRT SPEAK OUT TRUTH, 2003 WILDSANG MUSIC*Independent Music Awards - "JOSIE" - Best Bllues Song 2005.*Pasatiempo's BEST-"SKY DIRT SPEAK OUT TRUTH"-2003 Best New Mexico Album.*WILDSANG -"Strong voices giving good messages!"- RhiannonCurrently based in California, award winning blues duo WILDSANG makes a ton of sound for two people. They are a trip back in time from the twenty first century to the early years of blues. Soaring harp. Crying slide guitar. Scorching vocals. Real emotion. This is the Real Deal. It is also an answer to the old time male blues singers. It is feminist blues. Bessie Smith and Big Mama Thornton would be proud.Berklee College of Music alumni, Hillary Kay's roots are buried deep in the black musical tradition. Joe "King" Oliver (and his Creole Jazz Band), one of the originators of jazz music & Louis Armstrong's mentor, is her great uncle and classical composer Ulysses Kay is her father. Hillary's mother, Freedom Rider Barbara Kay - marched side by side with Dr. King and was arrested and imprisoned in Mississippi's Parchman Penitentiary in the fight for voting rights and racial equality. The Freedom Songs kept up the spirits of the protesters on the marches and in the jails and Hillary was raised in this tradition. Hillary has performed in colleges and clubs up and down the east and west US coasts as well as in Rome Italy. Inspired by her love of the blues and the music of Howlin' Wolf, Charlie Patton, Big Momma Thornton, Robert Johnson and Son House, Hillary acquired a 1933 National Resonator guitar and embarked on a trip into the deep blues. She is still on what has become a life journey.Kate Freeman fell in love with the blues the moment she heard Lightnin' Hopkins and Big Momma Thornton in 1964. Next, she picked up a $2.00 Hohner Blues Harp and never put it down. Shortly thereafter, the richness and spirit of the music from the Mississippi Delta and North Carolina's Piedmont Plateau got under Kate's skin and there began a lifetime love affair with the blues. A San Francisco native, Kate was surrounded by the musical greats of the Sixties. At any given time you could be jammin' or hangin' with The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin & Big Brother & The Holding Company, The Doors, ...
| | Woof 7 Inches CD (2005)
Michael Lington songs
$19.55 One of the Ad Hoc label's first objectives has been to reissue the complete catalog of Woof Records, a small independent imprint directed by Tim Hodgkinson and Bill Gilonis in the '80s. Woof 7 Inches culls the EPs and singles released on the label between 1980 and 1984 by the Hodgkinson/Gilonis duo, the Work, and the Lowest Note. Some of these tracks were already available on CD, but it makes sense to have them all in one place, and the album as a whole makes a very fine listen of British avant pop at a time when the majority were emulating "Mr. Roboto." First up is the Hodgkinson/Gilonis material, home recordings released in 1980 as the EP I Do -- I Do -- I Don't -- I Don't. Harsh-sounding experiments in pop deconstructionism, these tunes are packed with good and not-so-good ideas and provide important context to the history of the Work, a group consisting of the aforementioned two plus drummer Rick Wilson and guitarist Mick Hobbs. From the Work there is a contribution to the 1980 compilation LP Miniatures, the three-track single I Hate America, the Recommended Records Sampler track "Houdini," and the 1992 piece "Scream Circle." All of these are available as bonus tracks on CD reissues of the Work's albums. "I Hate America" and "Houdini" pack a lot of punch, blending punk angst, rock stance, and avant-garde flair. The collection finally comes down to the Lowest Note, a shape-shifting group spearheaded by Andy Bole, Sven Halo, and Billy Rebel. Their songs come closer to the pop format and are extremely rich in arrangements, instruments, and homespun studio wizardry. Included are the tracks from the singles The Lowest Note on the Organ and Piggy Bank; three "outtakes" from Bole's first solo LP, Ramshackle Pier (also included on Ad Hoc's reissue of that album); and a live rendition of "Jane" (retitled "Naiwabi") featuring Bole, Gilonis, singer Catherine Jauniaux, and a drummer. "Jane," "Piggy Bank," and "Trial By Silhouette" still sound as quirky and fresh as when they were recorded. Fans of the avant-garde pop/rock scene that developed in the '80s and '90s ...
| | Leah Siegel Little Mule CD (2006)
Michael Lington album
$16.45 Little Mule is Leah Siegel’s new record. We’ve been waiting a long time for this one. News of it being in the bag came out back in February/March and at this point the fans are rabid for it.Little Mule has been worth the wait. This is a fantastic record in every respect. Every song is well-written and seasoned over countless performances by a professional songwriter who takes her craft seriously.Little Mule is the best sounding local record I’ve heard this year. This is a little unfair because she didn’t exactly put it together in her bedroom. A serious of cards lined up in order to produce this record, ending with a Bob Ludwig mastering job. Every instrument has been miked and mixed with the utmost care. Acoustic guitars don’t sound nicer than this unless you’re playing a Jethro Tull record.Little Mule showcases Siegel’s awesome band. Steve Elliot has some great guitar lines. When Siegel is strumming, he’s in the trenches laying it out there and when her wonderful finger picking is on display, he backs off. Tim Luntzel and Brian Wolfe ...
