Before his 1963 performance at the Newport Jazz Festival, Dizzy Gillespie had already been actively involved in the influential project. As one of the first performers approached for the original 1957 lineup, Dizzy became a staple in the years to come. This set consists of eight uptempo, Latin and blues influenced jam sessions. "Dizzy Atmosphere," "Morning of the Carnival," "Desafinado," "Gee Baby Ain't I Good to You" are all highlights of this thoroughly exuberant set. James Moody, who alternates between tenor and alto saxophone and flute, provides smoking solos throughout. Moody had recently rejoined Dizzy, having previously been a member his orchestra in the '40s. Hired at Moody's request was 20-year-old pianist Kenny Barron, who was also beginning an important stint with Gillespie. Bassist Chris White and drummer Rudy Collins rounded out the rhythm section. Vocalist Jon Hendricks makes a guest appearance on the rowdy set finale "Vote Dizzy (Salt Peanuts) as Gillespie was in the midst of his famed presidential campaign. As a bonus, this torrid set also includes Dizzy's relaxed witticisms intact at a time when more than hints of racial tension permeated the air of our nation. ~ Al Campbell Dizzy For President Music Dizzy Gillespie Dizzy For President Songs | 1. | Dizzy Atmosphere | $0.99 | |

‘Saturday Street’the brand new album fromAustralian bass greatWayneJonesThere's a reason why you don’t hear so many solo albums by bass players ... and no... I’m not about to launch into an onslaught of bass player jokes. The real reason,and any musician will know this ... is because only the very best bass players can betechnically skilled and creatively inclined enough to pull it off. On his 2006 debutrelease ‘Forgotten Melody', Melbourne bass great Wayne Jones proved to all he's one of the rare few who candeliver an album full of beautifully constructed musical storylines featuring the bass as the central character.Proving he's no one trick pony, Jones has done it again. Merely three years after his first solo effort, WayneJones offers us ’Saturday Street’, another rich slice of sophisticated jazz flavoured pie.The key to any successful musical endeavour in this genre is the quality and allure of the instrumental conversations betweenmusicians. On 'Saturday Street' Wayne's collection of virtuosic buddies talk it up big time. Assisting Jones in creating his latenight lounge grooves are the considerable talents of Gerry Pantazis (drums), Ron Peers (guitar) James Sandon, BenjaminNorthey, Andy O’Connell (sax), Daniel Beasy (trumpet), Dave Carter, Mal Logan, John Grant, Ash Crick, ...
