David Liebman is of that generation of 1960s and '70s saxophonists most impacted by John Coltrane. Liebman--who, like Coltrane, alternates between tenor and soprano--proudly wears the hallmarks of Trane's style: long flowing lines, thoughtful and passionate improvisations, and an openness to free expression. BALLADS finds Liebman paying tribute to a particular jazz tradition that had impacted Coltrane as well. Taking the slower, prettiest, and most romantic tunes from the Great American Songbook, Liebman interprets every tune with an almost old-school cinematic grandeur.
This collection of classic ballads seems to typify the saxophonist's growth in stature. Every phrase is given time to breathe and his timing is quite superb. Controlled emotion is very much a Liebman characteristic, his arrangements fostering a textural
Personnel: David Liebman (soprano saxophone); Vic Juris (electric & acoustic guitars); Steve Gilmore (bass).

"Fantastic!"Martin Olson, TV writer (Rocko's Modern Life)A software engineer by trade, Jeff has been active at various levels in the greater Boston music scene since 1978, performing with acts as diverse as J. Geils, Edgar Winter, Johnny A, NRBQ, Jon Butcher, Mission Of Burma, Human Sexual Response, Rick Berlin and The Real Kids. Jeff's first collaborated with the Martin Olson, the legendary comedy writer of Rocko's Modern Life, SpongeBob and Penn & Teller's Sin City Spectacular fame, on four albums in the mid-70's:"Idiot's Delight" (1974) , touted by Sir George Martin as: "the best home-recorded disc I have ever heard", also stating that: "It's a pity there is an ocean between us". Being the provincial-minded neophytes that they were, neither Jeff nor Martin gleaned that it would be a good idea to arrange a meeting with the great man and fly over to England."Bound for Hell" (1975)"Brain Damage" (1976)"Miss America" (1977)In 1978, Jeff started the Boston-based band Hot Dates with collaborator Rob Millett (aka Blondi Von Stagdavitz), Grant Clark, Sam Simcoe and Mitch Kary, which became a local favorite and placed fifth in the 1979 WBCN Rumble at the Rat. Jeff initially conceived Hot Dates as a musical comedy revue. Collaborating with renowned comedian Steven Wright and his Emerson College accomplice, John Teneyke, Jeff and Hot Dates first performed at an Inman Square club called The Springfield Street Saloon, which later became the Ding Ho Comedy Club. Hot Dates had one local hit with the Root-Millett penned, "Tune Into Me" which was released as a single. Hot Dates later released a self-titled LP recorded on the Boston Skyline label, owned and operated by Wayne Wadhams of Fifth Estate and Candid Camera theme song fame.After Hot Dates ran its course, Jeff formed a partnership with award-winning Rob Carlson of Barker Gang / Dell Smart fame to form Einstein which released "Black & White" in 1986.Jeff then 'retired from the music biz' ...

This is among the more memorable ECM releases, and one of their best from an ensemble-playing standpoint. ~ Ron Wynn
In 1983, the ubiquitous composers' collective known as Oregon left its old homestead of Vanguard Records and moved over to Manfred Eicher's ECM. It was also one of the final recordings the band did with multi-instrumentalist Collin Walcott; he was killed in a car accident a year later. Here's the strange thing about this date: Since the early '70s, Oregon had been an acoustic, chamber jazz/improvisational group. ECM had seemed like a proper home to Oregon from the beginning -- especially since Ralph Towner, the group's guitarist and pianist -- had done tons of solo work for the label. So what's the first thing that appears on ECM? Towner playing a Prophet 5 synthesizer ...
| | James Moody Our Delight CD (2008) Digipak
Classic Ballads music CDs
$12.95
The combination of James Moody and Hank Jones, excepting a few minor instances, has not been documented since the 1963 Argo LP Great Day. So this match-up of two jazz giants, with a collective experience of some 170 years at the time of this recording, is long overdue and exceedingly welcome. Concentrating on the music of Dizzy Gillespie and Tadd Dameron, these living legends of mainstream bop and hard bop turn this stack of standards and a handful of originals into a refined, relaxed and easygoing program of pleasing and accessible tunes. Every cut sports excellent solos, unforced refrains, and, as the title suggests, a delightful repertoire. Moody's tenor has never sounded better, while the ever elegant Jones supports the band with the ultimate in supple subtleties. Bassist Todd Coolman (who also wrote the insightful liner notes) turns in a usually reliable ...

EP (O)EP #2"(O), the second of three EPs promised from Denver’s Wentworth Kersey, finds the duo upping the atmospheric ante while maintaining a strong songwriting perspective. Passing comparisons toYankee Hotel Foxtrot-era Wilco remain apt, but the tracks here feel even more ethereal and ghostly than its predecessor. The slow burn of the majestic “Teton Mountains” unfolds like a fractured wilderness expanse before melting into the plaintive strummer “Brief Symphony”. ...
