Jazz Afterhours: The Essential Late Night Collection album
 $12.80   
Recorded live at Lincoln Center's American Songbook Series, New York, New York.
Perhaps taking a page from Karrin Allyson's note-perfect tribute to John Coltrane's BALLADS, the contemporary jazz singer Kurt Elling offers his own live tribute to the classic Impulse LP JOHN COLTRANE & JOHNNY HARTMAN, the tenor icon's 1963 collaboration with the perennially underrated Hartman, an exquisitely mannered singer who brought out the romantic best in both Coltrane and his listeners alike. The burnished-voiced Elling brings his own considerable romantic best to this 2008 Lincoln Center concert (part of the "American Songbook" Series) with fulsome support from pianist Laurence Hobgood, who also did the skillful string quartet arrangements (played by ETHEL), and saxophonist Ernie Watts. Elling in no way channels Hartman; he retains his own contemporary style as he delves into key selections from COLTRANE & HARTMAN like "Lush Life," "They Say It's Wonderful," and, of course, "Dedicated To You," itself a nod to the swooning '40s duet by Coltrane favorite Billy Eckstine and Sarah Vaughan. Stepping outside his own framework a bit, Elling ...

Jazz Afterhours: The Essential Late Night Collection CD music
$15.65  
Fans of legendary New Orleans musician Allen Toussaint may at first be surprised that, for his first album in over a decade, the producer, songwriter, and pianist would choose to forgo recording his own stellar material in favor of a collection of cover tunes. The songs here aren't just any songs, however, but a rich selection of Big Easy standards, as interpreted by one of the city's most gifted musical sons. The resulting Joe Henry-produced gumbo draws upon all of Toussaint's myriad musical experiences, but often focuses on his incredibly soulful piano playing. Even when other instruments take the lead (the trumpet on "A Dear Old Southland," the clarinet on "Just a Closer Walk With Thee") it's the master's ...

Jazz Afterhours: The Essential Late Night Collection songs
$13.95
Digitally remastered by Kirk Felton (1997, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
Ignore the title on this one-it's decidedly not acid jazz. It is, however, a fine collection of Ammons early-'70s work along with two numbers from 1962. This is jazz in a funky vein. When he returned to working in the late '60s, Ammons embraced the changes that had taken place in the jazz world during his lengthy '60s incarceration (on drug charges). Here, an electric guitarist accompanies him on all of the '70s recordings, and some tracks also feature electric piano.
The two tracks from a decade prior (Willie Dixon's "My Babe" and Don Gibson's "I Can't Stop Loving You") find Ammons backed by an organ trio-one of his favored ensemble formats. These pieces stand up nicely alongside the more contemporary recordings and should lead a listener to ...
