| | Return To Forever Returns - Live At Montreux 2008 DVD (2008) DTS Sound
Miyoshi
$12.39
After a quarter century apart, the core line-up of the jazz quartet Return to Forever--Chick Corea, Lenny White, Stanley Clark, and Al Di Meola--reunited for a world tour in 2008. This remarkable concert film captures the foursome on stage at Montreux, playing bewitching renditions of "Vulcan Worlds," "Sorceress," "Romantic Warrior," and many others.
The band was at the forefront of jazz/rock fusion in the 70s and were formed by a former Miles Davis sideman, in this case the great Chick Corea. Return To Forever hit their commercial and artistic peak with a string of albums in the mid-seventies featuring the line-up of Chick Corea on keyboards, Stanley Clarke on bass, Al Di Meola on guitar and Lenny White on drums. In 2008 ...

| | Robben Ford Soul On Ten CD (2009)
Miyoshi
$15.29
Personnel: Robben Ford (vocals, guitar); Neal Evans (Hammond b-3 organ); Toss Panos (drums).
Audio Mixer: John Paterno.
Photographer: George Wells.
Some of guitarist Robben Ford's weaknesses, such as song composition and vocals, are rectified or at least made less obvious, on this predominantly live release. On his fourth release for the Concord label, Ford is able to cherrypick better material from inconsistent albums, unearth choice covers, and generally broaden the music with his fiery playing. This, along with the natural energy generated by the stage environment, focuses attention on the guitarist's skills as a creative six-string bluesman who expands the narrow confines of the genre by adding soul and jazz influences. He kicks off the set with a lazy, wah-wah enhanced "Supernatural," the title track to his 1999 disc, and revs up the energy from there, jumping into the instrumental "Indianola." This is where Ford seamlessly combines rock, blues, jazz, and surf into a five-minute tour de force, leading one to believe that a vocal-free show might display his superb guitar talents even better.
Some of guitarist Robben Ford's weaknesses, such as song composition and vocals, are rectified or at least made less obvious, on this predominantly live release. On his fourth release for the Concord label, and first live CD in about a decade (although there have been some concert DVDs during that time), Ford is able to cherrypick better material from inconsistent albums, unearth choice covers, and generally broaden the music with his fiery playing.

| | Ember Swift Insectinside CD (1997)
Miyoshi
$18.99
With her jazz-steeped, acoustic punk stylings, and an astonishing seven recordings under her belt on her own independent "Few'll Ignite Sound" label, Ember Swift continues to solidify her reputation as one of Canada's truly substantial artists. Among other recent honors, Ember was voted as Toronto's vocalist of 2001 by the readers of NOW magazine. She was also selected as one of ten artists to participate in a special concert tribute to Joni Mitchell at the International World Leaders Conference, where Ember's performance received high praise, including a rave review from Ms. Mitchell's official web site. As well as being a highly accomplished musician, performer and composer, who successfully runs her own business, Ember is well known as a committed activist. Her credibility for insightful social commentary was recognized when she was asked by MP Bill Graham (now Canada's Minister for Foreign Affairs) to submit a brief to the parliamentary commission examining the country's post September 11th security legislation. A genuinely compelling and uncompromising performer, Ember and her band have toured extensively throughout North America and Australia, averaging nearly 200 shows per year. And as can be testified to by her devoted following, an Ember Swift show promises a rockin' good time, with sheer fun as important an ingredient as her extraordinary ...

| | Nora Whittaker Other People's Secrets CD (2003)
Miyoshi
$13.69
Nora Whittaker (vocals, keys) captures the humor and heartache in the authentic stories and experiences she tells through her jazz/soul influenced original songs, performed with whimsical commitment and passion. "Other People's Secrets" was expertly produced by Mike and Josh from the Philadelphia-based band Love Syndicate and recorded at Studio 4 in Conshohoken, PA. The back-up band features Josh on guitar, Woody Sutton on drums, Chuck Treese on bass and Sean Whittaker on backing vocals. "Head to 55" also features Harold Dunn on fiddle. What one fan said about "Other People's Secrets""..our household hasn't been so excited since we got a microwave and cooked a hot dog in 30 seconds!"(Lillian Klupka, 2003)Nora says..."My songs are based on secrets and stories - mostly other people's secrets and stories. I seem to be the sort of person that people bring their stories to: both a blessing and a burden. These are often stories that I can't or won't communicate directly to anyone else. That would be tacky and rude! Some of these stories and situations, however, become so compelling to me that I need to express them somehow. So they become songs with altered names and details so I don't betray anyone's trust. Then the challenge is capturing the overall intricacy of each situation."Currently based out of Philadelphia, PA , Nora plays in smokey bars, intimate coffee shops, ...
| | Larry Baskett Poor Boy Blue CD (1997)
Miyoshi
$15.19
On his second CD, Poor Boy Blue, Larry is featured in a quintet setting. Frank Phipps' melodic euphonium playing adds a unique sound to this excellent combo including Randy Vincent on guitar, Chris Amberger on bass and Harold Jones on drums.Check out Larry's first CD, Chalice, and his upcoming effort "Wait Till Spring" at jazzonthevine.com.
Personnel: Larry Baskett (trumpet, flugelhorn, vocals); Frank Phipps (euphonium); Randy Vincent (guitar); Chirs Amberger (bass); Harold Jones (drums).
Includes liner notes by Dr. Herb Wong.
It only takes a few seconds of listening to this CD to realize that Larry Baskett's main influence and idol is Chet Baker. A veteran trumpeter who was playing in the San Francisco area as early as the 1950s but then spent 1962-84 outside of music altogether, Baskett has successfully buried whatever original musical personality he has and instead has chosen to often sound very close to Baker, both musically and vocally. the emphasis is on cool and soft tones throughout the date. Frank Phillps on euphonium sometimes acts as a second voice (a la Gerry Mulligan) and other times as a surrogate trombonist. Randy Vincent (best known for his work with Bebop and Beyond) gets in some fine guitar solos, while bassist Chris Amberger and drummer Harold ...
