| | Williams Fairey Brass Band Acid Brass CD Williams Fairey Brass Band Discography of CDs
Acid Brass is a collection of ten acid house club hits rearranged by Rodney Newton for British national champion Williams Fairey Brass Band; the tracks are originally by the likes of the KLF ("What Time Is Love?"), Electra, 808 State, DJ Fast Eddie, A Guy Called Gerald, Rhythm Is Rhythm, Kevin Saunderson, Nitro Deluxe, and Black Riot/Royal House. The somewhat dodgy (and condescending) concept for this record, by artist Jeremy Deller, is that both brass bands and raves are staples of British working-class life, so a fusion of the two styles of music is natural. While the results are certainly well played, it's extremely difficult to figure out exactly who Acid Brass is supposed to appeal to, except maybe the kitsch audience. ~ Steve Huey

Purchase Acid Brass CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | John Fahey Requia & Other Compositions For Guitar Solo CD (1967)
Acid Brass album
$10.95 In his liner notes to this release, John Fahey mentions his desire to have an entire world orchestra in his guitar, Western to Eastern, bagpipes to gamelan. Perhaps it's this mental approach that sets his music so deliciously far apart from other so-called folk guitarists. Requia is essentially in two sections. One is a series of blues-based pieces in line with music he had previously recorded. These include the lovely "Requiem for John Hurt" and a wry "Fight On Christians, Fight On," both of which sound remarkably modern more than three decades after they were ...
| | Danny Gatton In Concert CD (1997)
Acid Brass CD music
$14.79 Includes liner notes by John Previti, Timm Biery, Ed Eastridge.
The performance captured on In Concert 9/9/94 happened less than a month before Danny Gatton's death, and from the sound of the album, it's hard to believe he was in a deep depression. Gatton's playing is incendiary and fiery, an extended display of sheer virtuosity, and the songs are consistently better than his studio albums, which were hampered by filler. Similarly, the studio polish of his albums tended to obscure how dazzling Gatton's pure, unvarnished talent was. That's not the case with In Concert 9/9/94, which positively sizzles. It might not be the best way to become acquainted with the guitarist -- after all, it doesn't show all of his versatility (the jazzier numbers are noticeably missing) -- but for fans, it's one to cherish. ~ Thom Owens
Danny Gatton's music is once again available at Bigmo.com. Here you'll find many of the older recordings as well as new material on Holly Gatton's Flying Deuces label. Including:Danny Gatton with Buddy Emmons: Redneck Jazz Explosion Vol. I ($11.95) and Redneck ...
| | Ray Davies Kinks Choral Collection CD (2009)
Acid Brass music CDs
$14.38 Orchestral and choral arrangements of rock songs have been a curious subgenre ever since the mid-'60s when Andrew Loog Oldham arranged The Rolling Stones Songbook for syrupy strings, but The Kinks Choral Collection stands apart from the pack for the simple reason that it's not the project of some associate or admirer, but rather chief Kink Ray Davies. His very presence as arranger and lead vocal means The Kinks Choral Collection isn't nearly as stuffy and middlebrow as so many of these orchestral rock albums; he manages to inject ...

| | Buddy Defranco Do Nothing Till You Hear From Us! CD (1999)
Acid Brass music CDs
$9.89 At 75, Buddy DeFranco still had all of his highly developed dexterity on the clarinet, and he still liked a challenge. So here, he can be heard with just the piano of Dave McKenna and the electric guitar of Joe Cohn in a swing-to-bop-flavored collection of ten standards and two DeFranco originals. A rare combination, to be sure, but one that poses no problems for these sensitive virtuosos, who listen to each other carefully and ground many of the numbers in a solid 4/4 swing foundation. Either McKenna or Cohn provide the basslines for the rapid numbers; McKenna's contrary-motion lines on DeFranco's rapid snapshot of Charlie Parker, "Skinnin' Rabbits," is remarkably deft. Ellington and alter ...
