| | Buell Neidlinger New York City R&B CD Buell Neidlinger Discography of CDs
"Cell Walk for Celeste," a jagged yet intricately orchestrated Taylor composition, features Archie Shepp on tenor sax, while Dennis Charles replaces Higgins on drums. "Cindy's Main Mood" is a Taylor/Neidlinger/Higgins trio improvisation. The disc finishes with an Ellington tune, "Things Ain't What They Used to Be," performed by an octet featuring Steve Lacy, Roswell Rudd, and Clark Terry, among others. NEW YORK CITY R&B is an excellent starting point for those unfamiliar with Taylor's music. The set showcases Taylor's talent for reworking standards while representing the more challenging directions he would take later in the '60s.
Originally released under bassist Buell Neidlinger's name in 1961, this 4 song album contains two tracks featuring a trio with pianist Taylor, bassist Neidlinger and drummer Billy Higgins. One track adds the young tenor Archie Shepp (and has Dennis Charl
This 1961 recording features a variety of ensembles based around Cecil Taylor and bassist Buell Neidlinger. Drummer Billy Higgins joins Taylor and Neidlinger on "O.P.," a tribute to Oscar Pettiford that is driven by an insistent bassline and Taylor's inimitable working of what is essentially a blues form.
Personnel includes: Cecil Taylor (piano); Buell Neidlinger (acoustic bass); Dennis Charles, Billy Higgins (drums).

New York City R&B album
 $9.69 
Cecil Taylor was among the principal figures that knocked the jazz world on its collective ear in the late 1950s and early '60s. Along with the creative efforts of John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman, and Albert Ayler, Talyor tested, shocked, and finally revolutionized the jazz world with his spiky, percussive, unfettered approach to the piano and improvisation. With his sound informed by pre-bop eras of jazz (Monk, Ellington, even Dave Brubeck) as well as contemporary classical music, Taylor blazed new directions that influenced jazz--and beyond--for decades to come.

| | Lee Morgan Sonic Boom CD (1967) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
New York City R&B CD music
$11.19  
Sonic Boom was not released until 1979 and then remained in print only for a brief time before eventually being reissued years later. In addition to the great trumpeter Lee Morgan and a fine rhythm section (pianist Cedar Walton, bassist Ron Carter, and drummer Billy Higgins), the well-rounded set is a bit special for it allows the often R&B-associated tenor David "Fathead" Newman an opportunity to stretch out in a more challenging setting than usual. Highlights include the funky "Fathead," the complex "Sneaky Pete," Morgan's lyricism on "I'll Never Be the Same," and the infectious rhythms on "Mumbo Jumbo." This is an undeservedly obscure session. ~ Scott Yanow

New York City R&B songs
$13.85
The last two Vandermark 5 outings, Simpatico and Burn the Incline, were without a doubt sounds from a band coming into their own as a collective. Compositionally they seemed at the wall -- at the margin, or limit -- of where they could go as a band at that point. In other words, those two records were as good as they could possibly have been. With Acoustic Machine, the story is different altogether. Vandermark has become a composer, not only of compelling new jazz, but also for the Vandermark 5 as a unit. His writing and arranging for Jeb Bishop, Tim Mulvenna, Kent Kessler, and Dave Rempis is player-specific, tailoring certain sections, modes, and intervals to the strengths of particular players, thereby maximizing their contributions to the unit. Because of this development in Vandermark's already considerable skill as a composer, the Vandermark 5 are a much stronger band. Consequently, Acoustic Machine is a significant step forward for an already fine band. Each of the compositions here is dedicated to a particularly influential artist in Vandermark's own developmental iconography; the "HBF Series" -- the first short pieces ever released by the group, which are interspersed throughout the disc -- pays homage to visionary minimalist composer Morton Feldman. Each part in the series is a small work destined to extract the maximum viscera ...
