| | Louis Armstrong Gold CD Louis Armstrong Discography of CDs
We all know Satchmo wrote the rulebook--not only for jazz, but for much of the swinging, raucous, good-time aesthetic of 20th-century popular music. The two-disc GOLD series usually does a commendable job rounding up a representative sampling ... Full Descriptionof music's top artists, and while the GOLD treatment of Louis Armstrong skimps more than it should on his early recordings, it is still a vital, totally entertaining listen from back to front.
There are plenty of the showtunes and popular songs Armstrong spent the latter half of his career delivering in his lovable growl ("Cabaret;" "Hello Dolly"), but the classic instrumentals ("Saint Louis Blues;" "Potato Head Blues") are also here, showing off Satch's dazzling horn chops. Serious jazz fans will want to explore Armstrong early discography (the HOT FIVES AND SEVENS recordings, in particular), but GOLD should satisfy most anyone looking for a dose from the master.
Recording information: 1926 - 1967.
Personnel include: Louis Armstrong (vocals, trumpet); Louis Jordan (vocals, alto saxophone); Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Bing Crosby (vocals); Duke Ellington (piano).
Liner Note Author: Bob Porter.

Jamie/Guyden Dist.

Paul Simpson, whose remix of Marvin Gaye’s "Lets Get It On" Slate Magazine considered better than the original, has used the original multi-track tapes to provide new takes on such hits as, "Yes, I’m Ready" by Barbara Mason; "I Likes To Do It" by the People’s Choice; and "Love is All Right" and "The Horse" by Cliff Nobles. Tom Moulton adds his magic touch to "Waitin for the Rain" and "Yes, I'm Ready."

Gold album
$25.19
While MUSICALLY RICH...AND FAMOUS documents the second half of British blues godfather Alexis Korner's career, KORNERSTONED adopts a more comprehensive approach, following the pioneering singer/guitarist from the very beginning of his musical life, all the way through every subsequent phase of his development. So we get not only his mid-1960s work with burgeoning blues-rock giants like Paul Rodgers and Steve Marriott, but also his `50s skiffle recordings (basically the British version of jug-band music) with the Ken Colyer band and his own skiffle group, and even an early acoustic guitar duel with famed fingerpicker Davey Graham on "3/4 A.D." Over the course of its two discs, this collection examines pretty much every aspect of this seminal bandleader's ...

| | Otis Redding In Person At The Whisky A Go-Go CD (1968)
Gold music CDs
$9.55
Originally released on Atco (33-265). Includes original release liner notes by Pete Johnson.
When Otis Redding played L.A.'s Whisky A Go Go in the spring of 1966, crossover fame was still awaiting him at the Monterey Pop Festival the following summer. This didn't keep a vociferous following (including Bob Dylan and his entourage) from filling up the club to experience the charismatic Redding. Backed by an anonymous band that included a seven-piece horn section, the soulful Georgian opened the set with a rip-snorting version of his "I Can't Turn You Loose," (which the Blues Brothers appropriated as part of their theme over a decade later).
He kept the juices flowing with piston-pumping covers of "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" and "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag," giving James Brown a run for his money. Redding's gruff voice caressed "Mr. Pitiful" and manhandled the self-penned "Respect" (which Aretha Franklin scored a hit with the next year.) But it was on slower numbers such as the yearning "These Arms Of Mine" where Redding dug deep for the ...

Music has coursed through Seth's blood from birth: raised by musician parents in rural North Carolina, Walker held his first instrument at the age of three. By 1995, Seth migrated from the Tar Heel motherland to the music mecca of Austin, Texas. where he honed his chops along side world-class musicians and begun performing in a variety of venues throughout the Lone Star State. The year of 1997 saw the release of Seth's first album, "When it Rains, It Pours," an homage to the cornerstones of his influence: blues and jazz. His second offering, "Meet Me in the Middle," is a testament to an impassioned urgency to explore uncharted territory, combining eclectic styles in the album's 12 original songs. Seth Walker's musical journey continued on his third album, "restless," a collection of songs that prove to fans and critics alike that Seth is more than a Texas ...
