 (2 Customer Reviews)
Recorded in New Orleans in 1987, this two-disc live set by the Wynton Marsalis Quartet (featuring the trumpeter's brother Delfeayo) shows that Marsalis is more inventive and less conservative than his detractors claim. Weaving multiple interludes of the tunes "Knozz-Moe-King" and "Juan" around bebop-flavored originals like "Chambers of Tain" and oddly-accented reinterpretations of standards like "Cherokee" and "Autumn Leaves," Marsalis and cohorts obviously hold jazz traditions in the highest respect. Nevertheless, Marsalis' uncommonly graceful, classically-tinged trumpet work is unique and inspired. LIVE AT BLUES ALLEY is one of Wynton Marsalis' best works.
Recorded live at Blues Alley, Washington D.C. on December 19 & 20, 1986. Includes liner notes by Stanley Crouch.
Personnel: Wynton Marsalis (trumpet); Marcus Roberts (piano); Robert Leslie Hurst III (bass); Jeff "Tain" Watts (drums).

Live At Blues Alley
$12.05
After a quarter century apart, the core line-up of the jazz quartet Return to Forever--Chick Corea, Lenny White, Stanley Clark, and Al Di Meola--reunited for a world tour in 2008. This remarkable concert film captures the foursome on stage at Montreux, playing bewitching renditions of "Vulcan Worlds," "Sorceress," "Romantic Warrior," and many others.
The band was at the forefront of jazz/rock fusion in the 70s and were formed by a former Miles Davis sideman, in this case the great Chick Corea. Return To Forever hit their commercial and artistic peak with a string of albums in the mid-seventies featuring the line-up of Chick Corea on keyboards, Stanley Clarke on bass, Al Di Meola on guitar and Lenny White on drums. In 2008 ...

| | Robben Ford Soul On Ten CD (2009)
Live At Blues Alley
$15.29
Some of guitarist Robben Ford's weaknesses, such as song composition and vocals, are rectified or at least made less obvious, on this predominantly live release. On his fourth release for the Concord label, Ford is able to cherrypick better material from inconsistent albums, unearth choice covers, and generally broaden the music with his fiery playing. This, along with the natural energy generated by the stage environment, focuses attention on the guitarist's skills as a creative six-string bluesman who expands the narrow confines of the genre by adding soul and jazz influences. He kicks off the set with a lazy, wah-wah enhanced "Supernatural," the title track to his 1999 disc, and revs up the energy from there, jumping into the instrumental "Indianola." This is where Ford seamlessly combines rock, blues, jazz, and ...

Live At Blues Alley
$11.49
Hailed as a “topnotch performer” by Daily Variety’s Joel Hirschhorn, Steve Kirwan breathes a certain truth and honesty into any music and lyric set before him. Easily delivering vocal performances with an uncommon depth and range, he charms listeners, creating a renewed intimacy between audience and artist. In small rooms, jazz clubs or on a theatre stage, Steve’s nuance, timing and unabashed connection to the music draws the audience in.It was the late Rosemary Clooney who taught Steve to live each song in the moment. Both performing on stage and recording with her, he learned first-hand how to give songs life, vibrancy and clarity. “Songs are written about a single moment in time – a thought that comes to your mind of an experience or memory. I think of each song I sing as a scene from a play,” he once said. As Steve developed his own contemporary style, he sought to retain deep roots in the old school tradition and acknowledges teachers and cabaret stars like Julie Wilson, Marilyn Lovell, Margaret Whiting and Kay Starr for their influence.The debut of BLAME IT ON MY HEART was released after a period of time Steve spent writing songs about his life’s experiences. "I had found another way to express myself in addition to singing", he says. Many of these songs were written with his then writing partner, Ken Klar. “Mr. Play It Safe”, “Someday I’ll Find You”, “Lover’s Lament”, “You Were Mine”, “Sarah”, “Blame It On My Heart”, “How Could You Walk Away” and “Grace Street” were all written with Klar. Also included is a beautiful piano/vocal arrangement of Don McLean’s “Vincent” arranged by Dan Wells and Stephen Bishop’s “Separate Lives” arranged by Bill Schneider.A singer/songwriter and graduate of the prestigious Eugene O’Neill Theatre Cabaret Symposium, Steve has over 80 recordings to his credit and has shared the microphone with both classic and contemporary artists. He was a featured soloist with the twice Grammy® Award-nominated L.A. Jazz Choir, and a session singer for Hal Leonard Publishing. Steve has recorded albums with Rosemary Clooney, Jack Sheldon and Bebu Selvetti and performed in concert with Gary Morris, Linda Ronstadt, Lucie Arnaz and the late Steve Allen. His theatre performances include: FALSETTOS; 1940'S RADIO HOUR; THE GIFT; THE CHOSEN; GODSPELL; CAMELOT; EVERYTHING’S COMING UP HITS; BROADWAY SINGS OUT!; WORKING; and THE MELODY LINGERS ON – THE SONGS OF IRVING BERLIN. Steve’s film and television credits include: ANYWHERE BUT HERE (20th Century Fox); THE JUDDS: LOVE CAN BUILD A BRIDGE (NBC); and RED SAILS ...

Originally released in 1971, DYNASTY is a double-CD that finds Stan Getz really stretching out in a quartet setting. Though highly melodic and restrained in the usual Getz style, these tunes feature plenty of advanced, post-bop playing and challenging improvisation. Flanked by drummer Bernard Lubat, guitarist Ray Thomas, and organist Eddie Louiss, Getz charges and glides through a number of originals penned by the band members plus the classics "Invitation" ...
