One of the leading jazz bassists of the 1990s and 2000s, Christian McBride is known for his formidable technique, his infallible chemistry with other players, and his restless sense of experimentation. The three-disc set LIVE AT TONIC is an impressive demonstration of these qualities. Recorded over two nights at New York City's avant music nightclub Tonic, LIVE finds McBride playing with a killer backing band and being joined by some of the hottest musicians on the scene, including pianist Jason Moran, guitarist Charlie Hunter, and turntablist DJ Logic. This is a hefty dose of compelling, joyful contemporary jazz.

Recording information: Tonic, New York, NY.

Photographer: Michael Didonna.

Personnel: Christian McBride (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, acoustic bass, electric bass); Christian McBride (bass instrument); Jenny Scheinman (violin); Rahsaan Patterson (trumpet); Geoff Keezer, Jason Moran (piano, keyboards); Terreon Gully (drums); Scratch (background vocals); Eric Krasno, Charlie Hunter (guitar); DJ Logic (turntables).

Audio Mixer: Jeffrey Chestek.

Down Beat (p.69) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he bassist sets the stage with a fast-moving metallic figure that rapidly gives way to a bowed improvisation before Ron Blake pushes ever harder on tenor saxophone....[A] rhythm-intensive band..."

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

5 stars Awesome concert!!! Pure jazz-funk!
I knew a couple of Christian´s solo albums before I heard this one. The nice thing is that this is not an usual live record, but it is a jam session type of concert. Part of the songs are improvisation around a key tone, but even though it is a record that is very easy to listen to, all the time. The great guitar player Charlie Hunter plays on one of the records. 100% funk! Don´t think twice...Buy it!

2 stars Yeah, but...
Though I really like McBride, I must admit, this record kind of bored me about half-way through. If I was at this show, I'm sure I would have been quite impressed and have had the time of my life; however, when one's away from the thrill of the event, it's the songs that remain. After the 1st disc there really aren't any songs, just jams. Not only am a admirer of McBride, but a major jazz collector, and I must say, sadly, just skip this one!

Dave Holland Overtime CD  (2005)

Live At Tonic album
CD $13.49  5 stars Audio Samples
This exceptional date by Dave Holland Big Band was recorded in 2002 in New York, yet remained unreleased until 2005. As is to be expected, Holland assembled a fine cast of seasoned and young players, some of whom are veterans of Holland's quintets and quartets. These are four saxophones -- two alto, tenor and baritone -- three trumpets and trombones, and vibes as well as bass and drums. They include Chris Potter and Robin and Duane Eubanks, Antonio Hart, Steve Nelson, Josh Roseman, Billy Kilson, Taylor Haskins, Gary Smulyan, Jonathan Arons and Alex Sipiagin. The music centers around the opening four-part "Monterey Suite," a tour de force commissioned by the Monterey Jazz Festival ...

Miles Davis Cellar Door Sessions 1970 CDs  (2005) Remastered; Box Set; Special Edition

Live At Tonic music CDs
CD $88.15  4.6 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Contains previously unreleased material. Some of the recordings on the CELLAR DOOR SESSIONS were originally released in edited form on the 1971 double-LP LIVE EVIL. There is an entire universe contained in this box. Sumptuously packaged and scrupulously annotated, CELLAR DOOR SESSIONS 1970 is a six-disc set that documents Miles Davis's extended residency at the Washington, D.C., club. Davis is backed by a group of genius musicians: keyboardist Keith Jarrett, drummer Jack DeJohnette, bassist Michael Henderson, saxophonist Gary Bartz, percussionist Airto Moreira and guitarist John McLaughlin (who appears only on the last two discs). Together they pioneered an ecstatic fusion of jazz, rock, funk, and abstract sound-painting that established the blueprint for the future of progressive music. Each disc contains a different live set, and while songs are often repeated across ...

CD $13.75  4.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
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, ...

Trio Beyond Saudades CDs  (2006)

Live At Tonic album
CD $21.55  3.3 stars Audio Samples
Trio Beyond is the name of the group that played at Queen Elizabeth's Hall in London, 2004. Jack DeJohnette initiated a project to pay tribute to the late Tony Williams' Lifetime -- with the late Larry Young on organ and guitarist John McLaughlin, all three were Miles alumni -- a band that, along with the Miles Davis band, spearheaded the jazz-rock fusion era. DeJohnette replaced Williams in the Davis group, and John Scofield is also a Miles alumnus; Larry Goldings had been approached by Williams in 1997 to put together an organ trio with a similar concept to Lifetime; Williams passed away shortly thereafter. The results on this double-disc album, Saudades, are explosive, dynamic, and utterly compelling. The repertoire comes from Lifetime's songbook. Spectrum: The Anthology and the intense stunner of a set closer "Emergency" come from the band's debut album of the same name, and two more pieces, Young's "Allah Be Praised" and John Coltrane's "Big Nick" come from Turn It Over, the second Lifetime disc. DeJohnette goes a step further here in featuring Davis' "Seven Steps to Heaven" in the program. The album the tune draws its title from is the first ...

Dave Holland Critical Mass CD  (2006)

Live At Tonic CD music
CD $13.59  4.3 stars Audio Samples
One word that comes to mind when listening to Critical Mass is generosity. Double-bassist Dave Holland, four decades into his career, could certainly be forgiven for taking the word "leader" at its literal meaning, calling all the shots and keeping his musicians at bay. But that's not what he's about, and at any given time Critical Mass could just as easily have been credited to saxist Chris Potter, ...
