REMEMBRANCES was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Performance.
This is an unusual date for Jon Faddis. Doubling on flugelhorn, Faddis avoids his upper register and performs ballads while backed by an ensemble arranged by Carlos Franzetti. The backup group consists of five reeds, trombone, a french horn, an occasional oboe or English horn player and a rhythm section. Faddis plays lyrically throughout but there are no exciting or stirring moments to be heard on the ten selections which include "Sophisticated Lady," "Speak Like a Child" "In Your Own Sweet Way" and a medium-tempo "Goodbye." A well-played and professionally arranged program but the overall results are rather forgettable. ~ Scott Yanow
This is a special DVD edition of the Grammy-nominated album Remembrances by jazz trumpeter Jon Faddis, which has been remastered to take advantage of the increased sonic possibilities of the DVD format. ~ Mark Deming

Purchase Remembrances CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Jon Faddis Legacy CD (1985)
Remembrances album
$9.79 After too long a period in the studios, talented trumpeter Jon Faddis returned to jazz with this brilliant effort. Best known for his ability to closely emulate his idol, Dizzy Gillespie (far from an easy feat), Faddis pays tribute to Gillespie with "Night in Tunisia" and "Things to Come." However, he also does a close imitation of Roy Eldridge on "Little Jazz," pays homage to Louis Armstrong on "West End Blues," shows sensitivity on Thad Jones' "A Child Is Born," and performs three other numbers. With the assistance of tenor saxophonist Harold Land, pianist ...
| | Nat Adderley Autumn Leaves: Live At Sweet Basil CD (1994)
Remembrances CD music
$10.89 Recorded live at Sweet Basil, New York, New York on May 12 & 13, 1990. Includes liner notes by Tony Green.
Cornetist Nat Adderley is in excellent form on his live sextet set but he is somewhat overshadowed by his two altoists: Vincent Herring and especially the explosive Sonny Fortune. With pianist Rob Bargad, bassist Walter Booker and drummer Jimmy Cobb offering stimulating support, Adderley ...
| | Wessell Anderson Live At The Village Vanguard CD (1998)
Remembrances music CDs
$14.79 Making the transition from major label to indie seems to have been a positive experience for saxophonist Anderson, whose muse was apparently ignited by jumping off the big business whirlwind that comes with Big Six servitude. Captured here at one of New York's finest, most intimate jazz venues, Warmdaddy leads his quintet through a set that includes standards ...
| | Nat Adderley Good Company CD (1994) Import
Remembrances songs
$10.09 Considering how late this was recorded in Nat Adderley's career, the cornetist sounds in surprisingly fine form throughout the sessions. There are individual features for altoist Antonio Hart (who ranges from Tranish on "Rwanda" to playing in a more Cannonball Adderley-oriented style on the older tunes) and the McCoy Tyner-inspired pianist Rob Bargad, ...
| | Gerald Wilson In My Time CD (2005)
Remembrances album
$15.15 Veteran arranger Gerald Wilson utilized a New York band full of all-stars for this very rewarding and memorable project. Three of the selections ("Dorian," "Ray's Vision at the U," and "Blues for Manhattan") form a suite called "The Diminished Triangle," which is based upon diminished chords and utilizes Wilson's eight-part harmony. Guitarist Russell Malone is showcased on the ballad "Musette," a remake of "Lomelin" pays tribute to a bullfighter ...
| | Thelonious Monk Quartet With John Coltrane - At Carnegie Hall CD (2005)
Remembrances CD music
$13.75 On paper it seems as if such titanic and distinctive musical personalities as Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane might not mix very well, but this stellar set, recorded live at Carnegie Hall in 1957, plays almost like a blissful extended duet between the two (with support from a sensitive yet hard-swinging bassist and drummer). The opener, "Monk's Mood," for example, features the composer/pianist's typically brilliant, idiosyncratic playing, while Coltrane floats over the top in the most lyrical of modes. Monk, in particular, is a master of tension-and-release tunefulness, creating rhythmic and harmonic intricacies that seem to spur Coltrane's saxophone exploration ...
| | Best Of Aphrodite's Child CD (1975) Import
Remembrances music CDs
$13.95 Serious art rock fans would not consider this compilation to represent the best of the group, as it concentrates on their early pop-oriented singles of the late '60s and early '70s, not their most ambitious, conceptual 666 period. If psychedelic pop is more your bag, though, it does signify their best phase, including of course their big 1968 European hit (which made number ...
| | Mccoy Tyner With Stanley Clarke & Al Foster (2000) Super Audio CD
Remembrances songs
$17.39 This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
From his revolutionary work with John Coltrane's classic quartet to his multi-hued solo career, McCoy Tyner is the most influential living jazz pianist of the modern era. Distinctive chord voicings, insightful solos and a neo-classical approach to the instrument have earned ...
