Jazz Icons: Jimmy Smith - Live In '69 video
 $8.99  
This is part of Blue Note's Collector's Choice series. These are limited-edition pressings of a few thousand copies.
This LP has material from 1961 that for no real reason went unreleased until 1985. One song, "Three Coins in a Fountain," is from the same session that resulted in tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley's famous Workout session with guitarist Grant Green, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Philly Joe Jones. The other five numbers -- three obscure Mobley originals, plus "I Should Care" and "Hello Young Lovers" -- are from the previously unheard December 5, 1961 session with the same personnel except for Green. Hank Mobley was in a prime period around this time, and all of his Blue Note recordings are well worth picking up. ~ Scott Yanow
Reviewers called tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley underrated so many times that the word may as well have been his middle name, and when combined with the numerous financial, personal, and health issues that Mobley endured during his career, it all added up to a middle of the pack position in the jazz canon. He truly deserves a reevaluation. This delightfully warm set was cut on December 5, 1961 with Mobley on tenor sax, Wynton Kelly on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Philly Joe Jones on drums, and consists of four Mobley compositions and a version of Rodgers & Hammerstein's "Hello Young Lovers." Mobley's measured, round sax tone binds everything ...

Jazz Icons: Jimmy Smith - Live In '69 film
$13.25
Most of the time, the Jimmy Smith school of organ jazz has been the domain of small groups -- a world of trios, quartets and quintets that have often provided high-quality jazz on a low budget. It isn't that the late Smith and his numerous disciples have anything against big bands (many of them have adored the gritty funkiness of Count Basie and Lionel Hampton), but for budgetary reasons (paying four or five musicians is easier than paying 20), organ/big-band projects have been the exception instead of the rule. Once in a Lifetime is one of those exceptions; recorded in 2003, this 57-minute CD finds Europe's HR Bigband (conducted by Jörg Achim Keller) featuring organist and Smith disciple Joey DeFrancesco as a special guest (Jeff Hamilton, the other special guest, is on drums). DeFrancesco is the most famous of the Smith-minded organists who was born after 1970, and the Philadelphian is in good form on Keller's big-band arrangements of "I'm a Fool to Want You," "Everything Happens to Me" and other well known standards. In terms of material, Once in a Lifetime isn't as adventurous as it could have been; many of the selections are overdone warhorses. The warhorse factor has been too high on many TCB releases (how about surprising us with great songs ...
| | Cannonball Adderley In San Francisco CD (1959) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Jazz Icons: Jimmy Smith - Live In '69 review
$9.65
Digitally remastered using 20-bit K2 Super Coding System technology.
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
Cannonball Adderley/Cannonball Adderley Quintet: Cannonball Adderley (alto saxophone); Nat Adderley (cornet); Bobby Timmons (piano); Sam Jones (bass instrument); Louis Hayes (drum).
Hot on the heels of session work with Miles Davis and his KIND OF BLUE-era group, alto saxophonist Cannonball Adderley recorded this excellent live date with his brother, cornetist Nat Adderley, along with pianist Bobby Timmons, bassist Sam Jones, and drummer Louis Hayes. THE CANNONBALL ADDERLEY QUINTET IN SAN FRANCISCO defined the accessible, yet technically challenging, soul-jazz that Adderley would be associated with for the rest of his career.
The warm, exuberant feel of the quintet is especially evident on the set's two finest tracks--a spirited take on Randy Weston's "Hi-Fly," and on Timmons's swinging "This Here." Two of Adderley's own compositions, "Spontaneous Combustion" and "You Got It!," blend blazing post-bop dexterity with pulsing, infectious ...
| | Thad Jones: The Magnificent Thad Jones CD (1956) (Import) Bonus Tracks; Reissue; Japan
Jazz Icons: Jimmy Smith - Live In '69 DVD
$9.59 
This is a 1956 set by bop trumpeter Thad Jones, with an all-star small combo anchored by drummer Max Roach.
The late Thad Jones is of jazz's royal Jones family, which also includes brothers Hank (piano) and Elvin (drums). A fine trumpeter/flugelhornist (with a distinctively big, mellow tone) and an imaginative composer and engaging arranger, Jones made a name for himself with Charles Mingus and Count Basie. He would also co-lead one of the finest big bands of the 1960's and '70's, the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra. ...
