| | Caetano Veloso Ce CD Caetano Veloso Discography of CDs
If Caetano Veloso's 2004 album A FOREIGN SOUND was a smoothly accomplished salute to his influences in the popular music of the northern hemisphere, his 2007 release, CE, is proof that he hasn't lost his cutting edge. Its skeletal sound, co-produced with his son Moreno, rarely adopts the complex yet soothing rhythms of Veloso's native Bahia, instead laying bare his distinctive lyrics and perfectly nuanced vocals with quirky, rock- and punk-oriented beats and electric guitar.
Songs such as the hushed, "Minhas Lagrimas" and the sophisticated, jazzy "Porque" are the exception here, with the singer exploring a more rock & roll direction on the aptly-named "Rocks," while similarly appropriately blending Caribbean and Brazilian rhythms on "Musa Hybrida." Veloso's lyrics, too, have lost none of their eccentric sting over the years, with "Odeio" and "Um Sonho" both displaying an edgy eroticism, and "Outro" bristling with anger.The Wire (p.63) - "Veloso's voice is, as always, an instrument of singular winsomeness, coloured with regret and yearning..."
Down Beat (p.62) - 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "It's one of his greatest vocal performances ever. alternating between rare tenderness and consonant grit..." Caetano Veloso Ce Songs | 1. | Outro | $0.99 | |

Purchase Ce CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Gerald Wilson Detroit CD (2009)
Ce
 $14.09   
Detroit comprises a six-composition suite commissioned for the 2009 thirtieth anniversary Detroit International Jazz Festival, played in the studio with musicians from composer/arranger Gerald Wilson's Los Angeles home or New York City area. Curiously, there are no Motor City-based players on the disc, but the themes are based in certain locales from the industrial Midwestern City that has fallen on hard economic times but played a pivotal role in the development of Wilson's highly developed skills as a composer, arranger, and bandleader. A quite spirited and energetic music is heard here from the 90-year-old Wilson, whose charm and wit would rival anyone many decades his junior. It's a swinging affair molded in the traditional big-band visage of Count Basie, Ernie Wilkins, or early Quincy Jones, with Wilson's deft touch for embellishing the blues. Players like trumpeter Sean Jones, son/guitarist Anthony Wilson, violinist Yvette ...
| | Miles Davis Kind Of Blue CD (1959) Bonus Track; Remastered
Ce
$6.29  
With BIRTH OF THE COOL, Miles Davis distilled a new tonal palette for jazz. As early as 1954, Miles reacted to the escalating chordal complexity of hard bop by fashioning an evocative blues based on a simple scalar pattern ("Swing Spring"). KIND OF BLUE was the ultimate fulfillment of this approach, with Miles providing his collaborators little more than outlines for melodies and simple scales for improvisation. By emphasizing the blues and the improvisor's ...

| | Brian Bromberg It Is What It Is CD (2009)
Ce
$14.29
Brian Bromberg's fourth recording for the Artistry label, and first since they were acquired by the Mack Avenue label, is a fairly predictable program of contemporary jazz, commercial funk, and pop song covers, as well as uptown New York City R&B-type dance tunes that should appeal to the urban crowd. His prominent electric bass guitar always has a retro feel going back to Ralphe Armstrong, Marcus Miller, Stanley Clarke, Larry Graham, and James Jamerson, but retains a current-day feel that is still relevant, remaining skilled and precise as any bassist currently playing the amplified instrument. Many of these tracks include a horn section featuring Randy Brecker, Eric Marienthal, Gerald Albright, and Rick Braun, while keyboardists George Duke, Patrice Rushen, and Jeff Lorber join in here and there. While entertaining and even attractive from a melodic standpoint, Bromberg and his mates are reworking themes, beats, and songs without pushing the envelope, and make sure that the music is concise and constrained, ...
| | Marc Copland Night Whispers New York Trio Recordings: Volume 3 CD (2009) (Import) Germany
Ce
$16.39
From Erroll Garner to Cecil Taylor to Bill Evans, and from Chick Corea to Thelonious Monk, a wide variety of acoustic jazz pianists have thrived in the time-honored piano trio setting (piano, bass, and drums) over the years. It's a setting that has never gone out of style in jazz, and it's a setting that has served acoustic pianist Marc Copland well in his New York Trio Recordings series. The lineup has varied from one volume to the next; on New York Trio Recordings, Vol. 3: Night Whispers, Copland is joined by bassist ...

| | Universal Sounds Of America CD (1995) (Import) Import
Ce
$23.65
Universal Sounds of America is one of the early compilations for Great Britain's Soul Jazz label that made a case for a separate imprint that later became Universal Sound. Artists like Pharoah Sanders, drummer Steve Reid and the Master Brotherhood, Byron Morris & Unity Ensemble, David Durrah, New Life Trio, Marcus Belgrave, and last but not least, the Art Ensemble of Chicago and Sun Ra all on the track listing for this set focus, one way or another, on "space being the place." Numerous cuts here employ the word "space" in their titles and one references it directly. Belgrave, Reid, Morris and the Art Ensemble all had titles reissued on the Universal Sound label (and Reid recorded afresh for Soul Jazz). While the focus here is on the diversity of, to borrow a term from the AEC, "Great Black Music Ancient to the Future," it is deeply rooted in '70s out jazz, with only Belgrave and Morris providing deeper, wider visions. Morris' nearly twelve-and-a-half minute "Kitty Bey" replies on modal jazz and Latin rhythms to get his killer track across. Likewise, Sanders uses an electric piano to position himself in space on the gorgeous "Astral Traveling," and Belgrave take nearly ten with his "Space Odyssey," that reflects on funk, electronic abstraction and Detroit soul-jazz to get his rather elegant point across. The rest is all beautifully played and constructed, but the sheer ...
