Purchase Janet Lawson Quintet CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Harry Connick, Jr Your Songs CD (2009)
Janet Lawson Quintet
 $14.19   
Much like 2001's SONGS I HEARD and 2004's ONLY YOU, 2009's YOUR SONGS finds vocalist/pianist Harry Connick, Jr. coming up with an urbane, passionate set of American popular standards and contemporary pop classics that he both performs and orchestrates. While his previous recordings leaned toward the classicist side--ONLY YOU featured songs of the '50s and '60s--YOUR SONGS features a more eclectic mix of standards and pop songs, with Connick's own lush orchestration lending an overall aesthetic of languid romanticism. To this end, Connick turns Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are" into a kind of Herb Alpert-inspired '60s pop nugget and, conversely, the Beatles' 1964 classic "And ...

Janet Lawson Quintet
$9.75 
Reissued, re-mastered, and re-sequenced for the 21st century, Herb Alpert's 1979 album RISE still has the big hair and polyester feel of the early '80s, though club remixes of two of the cuts, "Rotation" and "Aranjuez (Mon Amour)," update the producer/trumpeter's sound for a new audience, with the latter even adding trendy Arabic cadences. The title cut, with its laconic, laid-back feel and insistent bass riff, was also the backing track for the Notorious B.I.G.'s 1990s hit "Hypnotize." The album marked a triumphant comeback for Alpert, its sophisticated, upscale production blending his signature trumpet flourishes with contemporary touches such as massed synthesizers, ...

| | Jimmy Smith Sum Serious Blues CD (1993)
Janet Lawson Quintet
$8.99
1993's SUM SERIOUS BLUES finds Smith a seasoned soul veteran with almost 40 years of performing under his belt. As is abundantly clear here, he is still able to swing as hard as ever. Backed with a full band including two trombones, three saxes, trumpet, guitar, harmonica and rhythm section, Smith is no less dextrous than in his Blue Note and Verve years. The ensemble work, thanks to conductor/arranger Johnny Pate, provides powerful, large-scale color to the organist's manipulations.
Hard-swinging blues is still Smith's forte, and he delivers in cuts like the title track, "Round The Corner" and "Moof's Blues." Surprises like the Smith favorite "The Sermon," a vocal duet between Bernard Ighner ...

Janet Lawson Quintet
$15.05
LIVE IN PARIS won the 2003 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album.
Diana Krall is best known as a purveyor of gently drifting ballads, with a trademark laconic delivery. Such preconceptions may be slightly nudged, if not altered, when her LIVE IN PARIS concert document kicks off with a swinging, up-tempo "I Love Being Here With You" that finds her making like Annie Ross, while also giving her top-shelf band a chance to blow. Aficionados of those aforementioned narcotized standards will soon be set to their ease however, as Krall moves slowly and deliberately through the likes of "Let's Fall in Love" and a bossa nova-tinged "I've Got You Under My Skin," her voice sailing atop a velvet sea of strings provided by Alan Broadbent and the Orchestra Symphonies European. Towards the end of the program, she turns to more modern contributors to the Great American (or in one case, Canadian) Songbook, offering a solo piano-and-vocal rendition of Joni Mitchell's "A Case of You" and a decidedly pop-oriented studio take on Billy Joel's ubiquitous "Just the Way You Are."
Canadian version of 2002 live release includes one exclusive bonus track, 'Charmed Life' & the U.S. bonus track, 'Just The Way You Are' (Studio Version/Billy Joel cover). The first-ever live concert recording from Grammy winning vocalist/pianist Diana Krall, recorded at the Paris Olympia Theatre winter 2002. Here finally, captured in amazing audio quality, is an album showcasing the magic of Krall's concert performances. ...
