Bebo De Cuba Music Review

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars This album is HOT!!!
I was invited to see Bebo Valdez after a fundraiser at Jazz at Lincoln Center and was mesmerized by his music. Can clearly hear the jazz overtones in his music, but can also hear clearly his latin influence. Considered the father of Latin Jazz, Bebo should be a household name among jazz lovers and this album should be in everyone's collection.

5 stars South American big band is back
Bebo Valdes has organized a big band that plays jazzoriented music with a Cuban flavour. You have to go back to early Edmundo Ros to hear such a tight band. The trupmets are formidable and they also supply good jazzsolos. This is tweo CD - set complimented by one DVD. Good product for the money. On the second CD you can also hear a smaller group that gives Bebo plenty of room to play

5 stars Beautiful Cd's (and dvd)
I just love this cd. I could go on and on about how it is beautifully produced etc. More importantly, however, is the fact that it is just a great cd to sit back on your couch and enjoy (preferably with an ice cold martini in hand)....need I say more????

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 Chairman of the Board" died in May of 1998, yet his music sounds as vital and relevant today as ever. Released on the 10th anniversary of his death--in coordination with a slew of DVD releases commemorating the singer's acting career as well as an official U.S. Postal Service stamp--NOTHING BUT THE BEST provides an excellent look at Sinatra's tenure at the Reprise label. Among the album's 22 vintage cuts are classics such as "The Way You Look Tonight," "Luck Be a Lady," "Strangers in the Night," and "My Way." The disc also contains a bonus track in the previously unreleased recording of "Body and Soul." ...

Thelonious Monk At Carnegie Hall CD (2005)

Bebo De Cuba music CDs

$13.75

On paper it seems as if such titanic and distinctive musical personalities as Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane might not mix very well, but this stellar set, recorded live at Carnegie Hall in 1957, plays almost like a blissful extended duet between the two (with support from a sensitive yet hard-swinging bassist and drummer). The opener, "Monk's Mood," for example, features the composer/pianist's typically brilliant, idiosyncratic playing, while Coltrane floats over the top in the most lyrical of modes. Monk, in particular, is a master of tension-and-release tunefulness, creating rhythmic and harmonic intricacies that seem to spur Coltrane's saxophone exploration to new heights. The quartet shines on ballads ("Sweet and Lovely"), ...

Herb Alpert S.R.O. CD (1966) Remastered; Special Edition

Bebo De Cuba CD music

$9.99

By late 1966, it seemed as if every TV commercial and every pop arranger had latched onto the Herb Alpert "Ameriachi" sound -- at which point the resourceful originator of that sound began to pare it down and loosen it up a bit. S.R.O. (Standing Room Only), referring to the Tijuana Brass' string of sold-out concerts, is an accurate title, for this LP is about a seven-piece band loaded with experienced jazzers who groove and swing together to a greater degree than on their previous albums. Sure, the arrangements are very tightly knit and don't allow much room for spontaneity, but they still sound fresh and uninhibited, and Alpert often allows the flavor of jazz to come through more clearly. Indeed, two of the album's three hit singles, "The Work Song" and "Flamingo," are jazz tunes -- the former nervous and driving, the latter joyously kicking -- and the third, "Mame," gets a nifty Dixieland treatment a la Louis Armstrong, with Alpert singing one verse. The sleeping gem of the record is guitarist John Pisano's "Freight Train Joe," a wistfully evocative tune that won't quit the memory, and the mournful Alpert/Pisano/Nick Ceroli tune "For Carlos" later became Wes Montgomery's "Wind Song." Though S.R.O. only went to number two on the LP charts, Alpert's creativity and popularity were still peaking. ~ Richard S. Ginell By late 1966, it seemed as if every TV commercial and every pop arranger had latched onto the Herb Alpert "Ameriachi" sound -- at which ...

By the time of 1986's Montana Cafe, Hank Williams, Jr. had established himself as a singular hitmaking country artist, long out of his father's shadow. This allowed Bocephus to loosen up his outlaw image a bit, making this is a happier album because of it. Among the ten tracks are plenty of upbeat hits, including "Country ...
