Miles Davis Kind Of Blue CD (1959) Bonus Track; Remastered

Only The Best Of Mabel Mercer album

$6.25

With BIRTH OF THE COOL, Miles Davis distilled a new tonal palette for jazz. As early as 1954, Miles reacted to the escalating chordal complexity of hard bop by fashioning an evocative blues based on a simple scalar pattern ("Swing Spring"). KIND OF BLUE was the ultimate fulfillment of this approach, with Miles providing his collaborators little more than outlines for melodies and simple scales for improvisation. By emphasizing the blues and the improvisor's melodic gifts, KIND OF BLUE precipitated a major stylistic development--modal jazz. Charles Mingus had experimented with pedal points throughout the 1950s, and the melodic freedom of Ornette Coleman's Atlantic sides was also predicated on freedom from chord changes. But KIND OF BLUE was to prove the most influential, enduring work of its kind. There was just such a vibe about these 1959 sessions--Miles' lyric genius and ...

Michael Buble It's Time CD (2005)

Only The Best Of Mabel Mercer album

$10.05

Michael Buble's third major US release (including the mostly live COME FLY WITH ME) stays on message--this young Canadian loves the lush, swaying music of his parents' and grandparents' generations. Buble's albums, however, are much more than mere back-in-the-day exercises. The production and arranging of David Foster (Celine Dion, Josh Groban) is eclectic in a way that firmly places the tunes at the dawn of the 21st century, and, more importantly, Buble possesses the chops and sense of style to re-imagine the adult-contemporary vocal genre in a distinctive manner. In addition to standards by Gershwin and Porter, Buble embraces a variety of sounds, from Motown ("How Sweet It Is") to bossa nova ("Quando, Quando, Quando" with Nelly Furtado) to the ...

John Hiatt Slow Turning CD (1988)

Only The Best Of Mabel Mercer music CDs

$6.35

DRIVE SOUTH is generally regarded as the second installment in a trilogy (along with BRING THE FAMILY and STOLEN MOMENTS) of singer-songwriter John Hiatt's late '80s resurgence. While this period was certainly fertile and arguably his artistic peak, calling it a comeback is something of a misnomer. Hiatt, you see, never went away. For more years than he'd probably care to remember, Hiatt's records gained the esteem of critics and musicians while the record buying public remained largely unaware. However, with Bonnie Raitt's wildly successful version of his "Thing Called ...

Spartacus Jones Many Ponies CD (2008)

Only The Best Of Mabel Mercer CD music

$18.99
My new CD is called Many Ponies. I hope you'll enjoy it.The inspiration for the title song, and so, in a way for the whole album, was a painting of the same name by a wonderful artist, Cecilia Henle. The style is primitive, in the best sense of that word, and looks quite American Indian to me, and other-worldly, as well.It reminded me a lot of the Horse Nation Dance described in Black Elk Speaks.When the horse (t'shunka wakan) came to the Plains Indians, especially the Lakotas, it created a revolutionary change in their culture and ushered in a whole new way of doing things. Since that time, the horse has been symbolic of something new, something radically different, or revolutionary change.Horses brought a revolutionary change to my way of thinking, acting and being, too.But for the New to be born, the Old has to die.To become the person you will be, you have to let go of the person you've been.It's that simple.But it ain't easy.I know.See. Horses saved my life.I’d be a much different man if not for them, and I’m not sure you’d like him.I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t like him, myself.Horses taught me things that changed me.Taught me by the nature of their being. Made me a better man and a better person.If you know and love horses, too, if you’ve been touched by them, been inspired by their courage and nobility, if you’ve delighted in their company, felt a deep peace and “at-home-ness” in their presence, then you know exactly what I’m talking about. If not, for now, just take my word for it.Because the thing is, a whole lot of what you learn from horses ...
