One of Gary Peacock's finest latter-day albums, ORACLE finds the revered jazz bassist paired with guitarist Ralph Towner for an excellent acoustic ECM outing. Although the percussion-less songs here are spare and often delicate, they are far ... Full Descriptionfrom "easy listening," with both Peacock and Towner mixing thoughtful and melodic passages with occasional flurries of frenetic playing, as on the restless opener, "Gaya."
Recorded at Rainbow Studio, Oslo, Norway in May 1993.
Personnel: Gary Peacock (acoustic bass); Ralph Towner (classical & acoustic 12-string guitars).

| Allman Brothers Band Dreams CDs (1989) Box Set
Oracle album
 $42.09  
DREAMS is a 4-CD box set compiling in chronological order tracks by the Allman Brothers Band, as well as tracks by bands featuring one or more member of the Allman Brothers Band and solo performances by Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts.
Recorded between 1966 & 1988. Includes a 32-page illustrated booklet and liner notes by John Swenson.
Like nearly all box sets, DREAMS has plenty to recommend it-and a few nagging drawbacks. The set's chief shortcoming is its two conflicting goals: providing an overview of the Allmans' history, thus attracting buyers seeking the ultimate hits package, and including enough unreleased tracks and rarities to appeal to the band's most devoted fans. As a result, DREAMS is neither the definitive Allman Brothers collection nor the gift to hardcore fans that, say, THE BOOTLEG SERIES is to Dylan-philes.
DREAMS' strengths are considerable. First and foremost, the box contains nearly five wall-to-wall hours of great music. By including everything from early demos to Gregg Allman and Dickie Betts' solo material, DREAMS does a great job of tracing the group's musical evolution from hippie blues band to kings of Southern rock. And, while the unreleased studio version of "Statesboro Blues" included here isn't definitive, it's still mighty good-as are the set's other rarities. Start your Allman Brothers collection with THE FILLMORE CONCERTS; if that grabs you, DREAMS should also find a welcome place on your CD shelf.
Personnel includes: Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts (vocals, guitar); Duane Allman (guitar, dobro, background vocals); ...

Before concentrating on jazz, Dutch singer Fay Claassen studied classical dance. To a degree, Claassen applies the discipline of the latter to the former. She's not a belter but a lithe, discerning vocalist, improvising as a horn player might. Her 2006 disc, TWO PORTRAITS OF CHET BAKER, found her vocally reproducing ...
