After 1979 and 1980 albums by Peter Green were by turns bluesy and funky, White Sky from 1981 emphasizes rock. Maybe this is because all the songs are written by his older brother Mike Green, who sings on the title track...Drummer Reg Isidore of the Robin Trower band continues his collaboration with Green. After the preceding two albums were produced by Peter Vernon-Kell, Peter Green produced this one with Geoff Robinson. For the second straight album, he ends with a long, dreamy instrumental. ~ Mark Allan

Maybe this is because all the songs are written by his older brother Mike Green, who sings on the title track. Mike's material doesn't quite work for Peter, who sounds ill at ease singing "Born on the Wild Side." And they could not in subsequent years get away with lyrics like "I'm your Indian lover and you're my squaw" from "Indian Lover."

The 2005 remastered version on the Sanctuary label has stellar sound and contains five bonus tracks. There's an instrumental version of "Just Another Guy," as well as the haunting "Corners of My Mind," and "Touch My Spirit," both fine examples of Peter's latter-day playing. ~ Mark Allan and Thom Jurek

White Sky songs
$10.15 Kolors, a 1983 release by Peter Green, is not a bad record. Peter seems more at ease with material by his older brother Mike Green than on White Sky three years before. Dave Mattacks of Fairport Convention and Reg Isidore of the Robin Trower band share the drumming. Peter plays with more passion than in a long time. "Big Bad Feeling" showcases some great slide guitar and hearkens back to Peter's glory days with Fleetwood Mac. "Bandit," another in a long line of dreamy Green instrumentals, features pan pipes! But, unlike Peter's great Mac tunes, Mike's songs are sometimes pedestrian -- after exploring "Indian Lover" on White Sky, he offers "Black Woman" here. "Black ...

$19.79 The first solo album from Fleetwood Mac singer/songwriter Daniel David Kirwan has the future producer for Human League and Buzzcocks, Martin Rushent, utilizing those skills here, as well as engineering. The sound is crystal clear, and a feather in the cap for Rushent as well as Kirwan. It starts off with an uncharacteristic "Ram ...

| | Mosaic Select-Duke Pearson CDs (2003)
White Sky music CDs
$51.15 The Mosaic Select series continues -- having released eight impressive volumes n the calendar year 2003 -- this being the last, it's a provocative set in that it compiles five Duke Pearson albums from 1968-1970, all of them centered around his "exotic period: The Phantom, Merry Ole Sole, How Insensitive, It Could Only Happen With You, and I Don't Care Who Knows It. In addition, it places all of those recording sessions in their proper chronological order and includes two completely unreleased tracks.
What these sessions -- completely immersed in Brazilian and Latin rhythms and melodies -- all have in common is drummer Mickey Roker. The most common rhythm section here is Roker with bassist Bob Cranshaw, who plays on all but two of these sessions. Around this catalyst, Pearson's albums recruited a number of soloists and ensemble players from Bobby Hutcherson and flutists Jerry Dodgion and Hermeto Pascoal, guitarist Ralph Towner, vocalists Flora Purim and Andy Bey, and percussionists from Airto to Potato Valdes. The size of the ensembles varies from quintet to nonet with a chorus of no less than 17 voices on How Insensitive. The material here reflects Pearson's complete abandonment of hard bop tempos, but not the blues. Here, blues, soul, and bossa entwine on each album with different colors and textures and play out not against one another, but in concert. Given the close proximity of these sessions to one another and Pearson's increasing focus on rhythm, the album that stands out here is The Phantom -- for being the hinge between his past and his present. The Phantom is more like a classic soul-jazz date with Brazilian and Latin flavors, rather ...
| | Fugitive Glue Mateo CD (2004)
White Sky songs
$16.45 FuGlu is a Stew!Some bands are soups, some bands are stews.You know how with some soups you can only identify the ingredients through taste, because they've been blended together so completely? Whereas with stews, you retain the individual tastes and textures of the ingredients?That said, Fugitive Glue is a stew. (Yeah, I went a long way for a rhyme. Sue me, it's Nashville.)The ingredients that make up the FuGlu stew - Michael Webb, Rick Plant, Craig Wright, Eliot Houser - bring such a diversity of flavors to the mix that none of the 15 tracks (well, 14 if you discount the spoken-word ramble Guido and Rok) sound the same.There's the pick-up line rock of the opener Hey, the determined lope of Family Kind and the jangly self-examination of Find Me Another that's counterbalanced by the funkified Monkey Man, the down-home psychedelia of Wishes and the Sgt. Pepper-esque She's The One.And then there are the "two sides of the same coin" tracks, Ego and Nashville Town, where the boys take some playful swipes at "the biz," namely the clueless elevation of karaoke queens to stardom and the soul-sucking desperation that sometimes comes in the attempt to make a living doing what you love.The net result gives all the Gluey primaries that chance to shine, with the crisp wordplay bouncing nicely off the sonics. These are young veteran musicians who know how to put songs together, making the complex sound simple and fun.-- Lucas Hendrickson (The Rage)Spread a little FuGlu on that angstIt's a fundamental, universal law: Rock 'n' roll is supposed to be fun.Sure, we got away from that some in the early '90s, when angst and flannel somehow formed a combustible element that took a lot of the joy out of rock. But slowly we're getting back to the notion that it's OK to rock out with a smile on your face, a smirk in your lyrics and a jangle in your guitar.Take local power popsters Fugitive Glue, for example. First off, it's just a fun name to say, and the shortened version (say it with us . . . FuGlu) is even better.And then you get to the music on their newly released debut, Mateo. It's smart, snappy power pop that ranges from the undulating ''How you doin'?'' nature of Hey to the driving, pop culture commentary of Ego.And those are just the first two tracks. Subsequent tunes tackle the idea of peace-keeping conformity on If Linda Likes It, the out-and-out funk of Monkey Man and a Spanish ballad that has to be heard to be believed on ...
