Eight original compositions and Thelonious Monk's "Let's Call This" form the basis of this excellent small group by the trombonist.
Personnel: Wycliffe Gordon (vocals, trumpet, trombone, tuba, piano); Victor Goines (saxophone, clarinet); Farid Barron (piano); Rodney Whitaker (bass); Herlin Riley (drums).
Recorded at Sound On Sound Recording, New York, New York on December 16 & 17, 2000.
Wycliffe Gordon is best known for being the star trombonist with Wynton Marsalis' groups, but as he shows on the colorful Joyride, he is much more. Gordon not only plays trombone but a bit of tuba, trumpet, and even piano (on "Blessed") in addition to taking some good-time vocals. His music is inspired by New Orleans jazz while also including swing, blues, bop, and some more modern explorations. With Victor Goines also showing off his versatility (mostly on tenor but also playing some soprano and clarinet) and the rhythm section being both flexible and alert, this is a highly enjoyable and rather unpredictable set that keeps one guessing. The Joyride is one of Gordon's finest showcases to date and is further proof that the trombonist is the most important alumnus of Marsalis' bands. ~ Scott Yanow

When Rosemary Clooney recorded for Concord in the '80s and '90s, her voice was noticeably thinner than it had been in the '50s. This isn't to say that she sounded bad -- despite her limitations and the fact that she didn't have the range or chops of her youth, Clooney could still win you over with her sensitive interpretations of lyrics. And Concord deserves credit for generally providing her with talented arrangers and musicians, as well as tasteful material (as opposed to the type of novelty items ...

San Diego powerpop quartet Pensive is well known for their melodic sing-along songs rooted in the California pop-punk scene that spawned Green Day, The Offspring, and San Diego superstars blink-182, but with their new album ARTIFACTS, Pensive expects to raise a few eyebrows. Although continuing on the new album to embrace the naturally infectious tunes that make for a lively, energetic stage performance that is the hallmark of these California boys, Pensive promises that ARTIFACTS will bring to the fore songs with new musical influences that might be unexpected for fans who know the band well."We aren't losing our pop sensibilities," explains lead vocalist Julio Godoy. "The new songs are melody-driven, and we still love a good hook. But we think the guitar and drum work underlying them is stronger, more complex and interesting. There's a more powerful sonic quality in the songs, and we think it better reflects the energy we feel when we play live."Lyrically ARTIFACTS takes Pensive listeners beyond the expected as well, with great appeal to the post-emo sensibilities of young afficionados navigating the brave new cyberworld ...
