Herbie Hancock Piano CD (1978) Bonus Tracks; Remastered

Solo album

$8.29

Previously available only as a limited edition, Japanese import. Herbie Hancock never really focused on solo piano. However, this 1978 release, which was previously only available in Japan, is a rare gem in the Hancock discography. Thanks to this overdue 2004 reissue, the listener is invited to explore the musical mind of this pianist in an up-close and intimate setting. All 11 tracks on THE PIANO are quite reflective, with Hancock employing many rich chordal textures and winding melodic gestures throughout. On "My Funny Valentine," Hancock combines the harmonic palette of Bill Evans with his own distinctive phrasing and unexpected modal shifts. His own composition "Blue Otani" is the only bluesy piece on this disc, and here Hancock slyly suggests the stride piano tradition without ever really playing in this style. "Harvest Time" is the most atmospheric piece on the album. As Hancock's fingers glide over the keys, one can almost envision the first blush of daybreak on a farm. For anybody seeking ...

Wynton Marsalis Live At The House Of Tribes CD (2005)

Solo music CDs

$15.65

This live set finds jazz ambassador Wynton Marsalis doing what he does best--that is, playing straightforward, bop-inflected jazz with flawless technique. Marsalis pays homage to the masters with versions of Thelonious Monk's "Green Chimneys" and Charlie Parker's "Donna Lee," and offers a lilting, smoky reading of the standard "You Don't Know What Love Is." There is plenty of stretching out over these six tracks, with superb solos from both Marsalis and alto saxophonist Wessell Anderson, while the tight rhythm section keeps things churning and energized. A tasty, contemporary update of bop and ...

John Coltrane One Up, One Down: Live At The Half Note CDs (2005) Remastered

Solo songs

$21.39

The dramatic, spiraling inventions of Tyner lend a frenetic element to Coltrane's already intense lines, while Jones and Garrison find and rearrange nearly every rhythm and counter-rhythm imaginable. There are only four tracks here (spread out over two discs), but each--whether it's the fiery title track or the exhilarating take on "My Favorite Things"--is a study in artistry. Live Recording ONE DOWN, ONE UP: LIVE AT THE HALF NOTE, recorded in the last year of the classic quartet's existence, captures John Coltrane, drummer Elvin Jones, pianist McCoy Tyner, and bassist Jimmy Garrison going full blast. Recorded a year after A LOVE SUPREME, Coltrane was already moving on to extended improvisation, stretching out a single composition ...

Thelonious Monk At Carnegie Hall CD (2005)

Solo album

$13.15

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"), but the leaders display their best chemistry on the Monk's thorny, uptempo bop numbers. "Evidence" and "Epistrophy," for instance," have Monk adding rhythmic, ...

John Coltrane Trane's Blues CD (1999)

Solo music CDs

$10.15

Recorded between March 1956 and September 1960. Includes liner notes by Bob Belden. In short, this collection of Coltrane performances is fantastic. Though each tune here is based on more or less traditional 12-bar blues structures, there is never a dull or predictable moment. The changes are as natural as breathing. Coltrane, flanked by such legends as Lee Morgan, Donald Byrd, McCoy Tyner, Paul Chambers, and Art Blakey, simultaneously reveres and subverts the form with his wild, supremely inventive approach to harmonic expression. On "One And Four" (later recorded as "Mr. Day"), Coltrane modernizes the blues by superimposing the major third over the suspended chords, creating compelling, angular tensions. "Trane's Blues," a tune Coltrane later re-recorded with Miles Davis, represents the saxophonist's gift for composing catchy themes around his challenging solo flights. The inclusion of two cuts from BLUE TRAIN makes this set a must. Both "Blue Trane" and "Locomotion" are modern jazz classics that feature definitive, virtuousic soloing by all of the musicians. TRANE'S BLUES is a keeper. This is a case study in how a musician can embrace one of the simplest, most traditional forms and revitalize it with dazzling, boundary-pushing creativity. Digitally remastered by Ron McMaster. Compilation producer: ...

Aristry Of Artie Shaw 1949 CD (2005) (Import)

Solo album

$23.65
In 1949 just before he was about to start yet another big band, Artie Shaw made the following statement: 'We'll find an identity. Perhaps it would be fairer to say I'll find one. Sooner or later all bands that stick find an identity, and find it through their leader. All the sounds, the creative arrangements, the pop tunes and the originals, must be channelized through the leader''. And on September 14, 1949 Artie Shaw was back on the bandstand, opening at Symphony Hall, Boston. The band's book contained both old and new material, and it was the first time Shaw had gone on the road with a band for many years. The 1949 band features a mixture of numbers associated ...
