This is a Hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.

The veteran R&B/smooth jazz guitarist's Heads Up debut once again captures the always engaging, melodic, and easy grooving magic that has defined his career. This time, rather than simply gather a bunch of likeable tunes to show off his electric and acoustic versatility, he's in a tribute mode. 97th & Columbus is the address of the Manhattan nightclub Mikell's, which was a traditional and contemporary jazz hothouse during Powell's early- and mid-'80s developmental days. Hot new acts were often discovered there, and everyone from John Scofield to George Benson dropped by to jam or watch. Powell celebrates the club's sense of history and shedding with odes both direct and not so obvious. He pays homage to Benson with a faithful and slick run on "Breezin'"; tackles the Ramsey Lewis chestnut (co-written by Maurice White) "Sun Goddess" with a snappy playfulness on electric classical guitar (backed by George Duke on Rhodes and Marcus Miller's subdued electric bass); and draws from his church background for a lighthearted, sometimes dreamy take on "What's Going On" (with longtime associate Luther Vandross on vocals). The best originals are the Latin-tinged "The Flavour," on which Powell begins lines with electric and completes them on acoustic; the silky title track; and the beautiful and heartfelt reflection, "Ode to Chet." Powell and some of the biggest names in soul and jazz move effortlessly from easy ballads to more funky exercises which combine to capture the youthful spirit that defined Powell when he was coming up two decades before this album was released. ~ Jonathan Widran

97th & Columbus
CD $11.95  4.2 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
The soul-jazz minded keyboardist has been a legendary pop-fusion and smooth-jazz artist for several decades, and producer Steven Dubin had been a huge smooth-jazz force for several years (working with Peter White, Richard Elliot and Najee). The two Philadelphia natives never crossed paths (despite having gone to the same high school and played the same clubs), however, until Lorber hired him to work on his album Kickin' It. This disc continues the fun, feisty and funky retro-soul vibe of that disc in an even fuller celebration of their Phillyness. Lorber is so well known for his old school Rhodes textures (which were "new school" ...

Ronny Jordan At Last CD  (2003)

97th & Columbus
CD $10.95  4 stars Audio Samples
Ronny Jordan's first effort for N-Coded after a pair of winners on Blue Note is a déjà vu of sorts for anyone who was interested in the initial modern-day groove jazz ushered in by George Benson with Breezin'. Not that Jordan's fine At Last sounds anything like Benson's album, or that the two have anything in common besides Wes Montgomery -- it's more vibe than anything. At Last is the album where Jordan is relaxed enough to prove he has nothing left to prove. He's not only arrived, but he's not going anywhere either. The ten tracks here are mature, progressive, and steeped in summery groove. The hip-hop evident on his forays into the genre has virtually evaporated. The harder-edged, funky sounds on the Blue Note records are largely absent and his journeys down ...

Nine albums into his career, Boney James makes a grab for the smooth-jazz crown with PURE, an outing that finds him working with a mix of soul and jazz luminaries. James ups the stakes by taking over the production reins (in addition to co-writing every song). Still front and center with his beloved tenor saxophone, this Grammy-nominated artist shifts to soprano sax for the harmony-soaked Bilal duet "Better with Time" and the silk sheets-and-champagne slow jam "Break of Dawn," featuring up-and-coming ...
Pony Blues
Charley Patton Pony Blues CD  (1999) (Import) United Kingdom

97th & Columbus
CD $12.09
You could make a valid case that anything recorded by Charley Patton is seminal to the history of blues. These, however, are the secular pieces (in his final 1934 session he also recorded some religious titles) on which his reputation stands, and upon listening it's easy to understand why. He sang and played with total conviction, and so much of his repertoire has become standard over the years. Listen to "Pony Blues," for example, from his first session in 1929, and you can not only hear his haunting voice, but some superb guitar work, utterly individual and far ahead of anything else that was being record at the time. This was the real blues, earthy, rich, and resonant of the South (Patton's experiences around Dockery's Plantation), performed with a power no one else could equal until Robert Johnson. That first session, ...
