Sweet Love Of Mine music CDs
CD $50.39  Audio Samples
THE COMPLETE VERVE STUDIO MASTER TAKES makes a definitive and compelling case for Holiday's Verve tenure. Packaged in a deep-dish metallic box (which resembles the world's most beautiful lunch pail), THE COMPLETE comprises six CDs, a 60-page booklet filled with rare photographs and superb liner notes, and dazzlingly crisp sound via digital remastering. The musicians on these sessions were some of the finest of the era, and Holiday herself--even with a gift impaired by time and abuse--sings with impeccable artistry, and beautifully enough to break the heart. The set is essential for completists, and is also a great one-stop for those looking to acquaint themselves with Lady Day's later work. Billie Holiday fans will argue eternally over the relative merits of the different phases of her career. In these arguments Lady Day's work for Verve, which roughly covered the last decade of her life, often gets short shrift. While it cannot be denied that Holiday had lost much of the elasticity and spring in her voice (due in large part to a rough life filled with alcohol and drug abuse), and that the recordings were sometimes weighted too heavily with strings and saccharine arrangements, it is impossible to overlook the exquisite phrasing and raw emotion underscoring many of these performances. Personnel: Billie Holiday (vocals); Freddie Green, Herb Ellis, Kenny Burrell, Barney Kessel, Barry Galbraith, Billy Bauer (guitar); Tony Scott (clarinet); Willie Smith, Benny Carter ...

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

CD $13.65  4.3 stars Audio Samples
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 ...

Sonny Rollins Without A Song (The 9/11 Concert) CD  (2005)

Sweet Love Of Mine album
CD $15.49  3 stars Audio Samples
Recorded on September 15th, 2001, WITHOUT A SONG is a live recording by jazz icon Sonny Rollins, observing the World Trade Center disaster that occurred just four days prior to the concert. Rollins was one of the few musicians from jazz's golden age still performing with a sense of vitality, and that is especially clear on this recording, which is imbued with the gravity appropriate to the aforementioned tragedy. Yet the proceedings are never overwhelmed by pathos or grief. Instead, Rollins and his five-piece ensemble offer spirited takes on the standards "Where or When" and "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square," and Rollins's own Latin-inflected "Global Warming." The wit, range, and dexterity that made the saxophonist's ...

Thelonious Monk At Carnegie Hall CD  (2005)

CD $13.79  4.8 stars 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, while Coltrane floats over the top in the most lyrical of modes. Monk, in particular, is a master of tension-and-release tunefulness, creating ...

 Life's Rich Pageant
R E M Life's Rich Pageant CD  (1986)

Sweet Love Of Mine songs
CD $9.79  5 stars Audio Samples Definitive Album
The songs on LIFE'S RICH PAGEANT are listed out of order on the packaging. Two songs on the record, "Underneath The Bunker" and a cover of the Clique's "Superman," aren't listed at all. Coming after the dark and arty FABLES OF THE RECONSTRUCTION, 1986's LIFE'S RICH PAGEANT was R.E.M.'s first tentative step towards the rock & roll mainstream. At the time, Don Gehman's production sounded shockingly bright and commercial, but, in hindsight, the album is clearly a dry run for the impending commercial pinnacle of GREEN, OUT OF TIME, and AUTOMATIC FOR THE PEOPLE. The gorgeous "Fall on Me" (an ecological meditation featuring a spectacularly pretty chorus sung in counterpoint by Michael Stipe and Mike Mills) remains the record's best-known track. However, it is a quartet of harder-rocking songs--"Begin the Begin," "Cuyahoga," ...

5 stars A Grand Finale
John Hicks, one of the most prolific pianists, composers and arrangers of the modern jazz era has left his continued legacy of excellence and skillful musicianship in the form of his final recording with HighNote Records. In this final musical delight, Mr. Hicks brings about a myriad of emotions to subliminally arrive at the title of the CD, "Sweet Love of Mine". The title song, by the late trumpeter, Woody Shaw, speaks to the passion of Hicks and his dedication to the jazz genre. The late Duke Ellington is quoted as saying "Music is my Mistress", well, Hicks' passion and love of music is evident in this recording and is appropriately titled. A gifted composer in his own right, we are witnesses to a revamping of his original composition, "Peanut Butter in the Dessert", which is now ttled, Peanut Butter II. The teaming with master percussionist, Ray Mantilla, helps to bring a vibrant Latin-tinged repertoire to this occasion and yet, swings in true jazz tradition with the soulfulness of Javon Jackson on tenor saxophone, Curtis Lundy on bass, and Victor Jones on drums. Overall, I have enjoyed this CD immensely yet, I am saddened to listen to it knowing John Hicks will no longer bring us any newer recordings. But, it is safe to say that his legacy of wonderful and brilliantly composed music will be with us forever. Sweet Love of Mine is a grand finale and brilliant piece for all to enjoy. The solo piano tracks are worth the entire CD. Breathtaking!!!
