Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, saxophonist extraordinaire Greg Osby quietly established himself as one of the most valued and sophisticated players on the jazz scene--bending genres, writing strong original material, and seeking out ever-challenging configurations. 2005's CHANNEL THREE is Osby's first trio recording, and one that spotlights his technical expertise. Osby also continues his tradition of handpicking superb players to accompany him. Bassist Matthew Brewer and drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts lend nimble, adventurous support to the leader's always-engaging melodic and harmonic explorations on a string of original tunes and treatments of Ornette Coleman ("Mob Job") and Eric Dolphy ("Miss Ann").

Entertainment Weekly (No. 833, p.77) - "His tenor and soprano playing, always inventive, have never sounded so loose and graceful." - Grade: B plus
Down Beat (p.74) - 4 stars out of 5 - "His horn sounds warmer than usual on the title track, while on 'Test Pattern,' he name-checks Coleman again with a bluesy tone and highly expressive phrasing."
JazzTimes (p.70) - "[O]n pieces, like 'Mob Job', you hear solos become fully realized abstract designs that you have never heard before. Instead of prettiness, he sometimes delivers austere beauty."

David Sanborn Only Everything CD  (2010)

Channel Three album
CD $13.34  SALE Top 100 Audio Samples
Only Everything, David Sanborn's second album for Decca, feels like part two of his debut for the label, 2008's Here & Gone. That set was a tribute to Ray Charles and Hank Crawford -- the alto saxophonist who played with Charles in the '50s and early '60s, and influenced Sanborn tremendously. That set featured loads of vocals and tightly arranged tunes that were indicative of the performances of Charles' bands. Only Everything delves into more of that territory, but this time, Sanborn reflects more heavily on Crawford and David "Fathead" Newman, another legendary Charles ace from roughly the same period. The charts here allow for more soloing and offer a looser, more intimate, spontaneous feel. It contains only two vocal appearances: one by Joss Stone on a punchy "Let the Good Times Roll," and one by James Taylor in a unique interpretation of "Hallelujah I Love Her So." There are two different bands here -- one a septet with a horn section, the other an organ trio. Steve ...

Miles Davis Sketches Of Spain CD  (1960) Bonus Tracks; Remastered

Channel Three album
CD $6.49  5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
The crown jewel of the epic Evans/Davis triptych that began with MILES AHEAD and PORGY AND BESS, SKETCHES OF SPAIN is as emotionally compelling as any performance in the trumpeter's remarkable body of works. Combining as it does the emotional gravity of two cultures--the deep song of flamenco music and the rich lament of the blues--SKETCHES OF SPAIN is a musical hybrid of enormous power and beauty. Gil Evans' immense canvas of orchestral colors inspires some of Davis' most deeply felt solo flights. He paints vast vistas of velvety, shimmering night sounds, and through it all runs the mountainous backbone of Spain's native rhythms and chants. The centerpiece of SKETCHES OF SPAIN is the Evans/Davis treatment of the second movement of Rodrigo's "Concierto De Aranjuez." Evans' charts engage Davis in a shifting, insistent dialogue, italicizing the trumpeter's subtle variations and timbral ecstasies ...

It Had To Be You
Peter Nero It Had To Be You CD  (1994)

Channel Three music CDs
CD $11.05  5 stars Audio Samples
When Peter Nero served as musical director of the Philadelphia Pops Orchestra, his musical outlook wasn't unlike that of the sweet bands of the '20s, '30s, and '40s -- essentially, he was giving you orchestral pop that incorporated jazz and classical elements. Nero, like the old-time sweet bands, usually doesn't appeal to jazz purists. But then, the pianist never claimed to be a purist himself. Released in 1994, It Had to Be You isn't among his orchestral projects; Nero leads an acoustic piano trio that employs Michael Barnett on bass and Steve Pemberton on drums. But the mentality that Nero brings to this ballad-oriented CD isn't much different from the mentality that he brought to the Philly Pops -- It Had to Be You has one foot in instrumental jazz, the other in traditional vocal pop, and classical overtones in both areas. This is very much an easy listening album; a laid-back, easygoing mood prevails whether Nero provides instrumental versions of standards or features major vocalists, who range from Mel Tormé on ...
