Customer Malene Reviews 




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

5 stars MALENE, a pinnacle of her work. Just delicious.
I implied in my review of her earlier 2005 album, Date With A Dream, that this 2006 album, MALENE, is satisfyingly rich. This is the one to get, if you only get one. Her exquisite voice and sophisticated sense of phrasing with rock-carving voice of honey she steers into elated territory. For example, try out the first cut, ANOTHER DAY, the Branford Marsalis tune. But be warned! You will likely wear out your CD player on this cut alone. Damn! It's good. SEA OF LIES; NOVEMBER CAME, WHERE WOULD I BE WITHOUT YOU, though are all hers and her writing group. One thinks that perhaps here on this CD are some of the new 'standards' that could be around for the historians. Great band, that on this CD at least, never gets in her way, but unobtrusively keeps pushing her to new ground, and Malene's exceptional voice, at once naturally trained on the delivery and also on the soul carries these songs. I hope we hear lots more from her and her people.

Joao Gilberto Amoroso/Brasil CD  (1993)

Malene album
CD $11.99  4.5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Joao Gilberto is perhaps forever destined to be lesser known to casual jazz fans than his occasional collaborator Stan Getz (whose GETZ/GILBERTO albums introduced the United States to bossa nova) and his ex-wife Astrud Gilberto (whose shy, delicate voice made her one of the most distinctive and beloved jazz vocalists of the '60s). However, true fans of Brazilian music recognize that Gilberto is second only to Antonio Carlos Jobim as a writer and interpreter of traditional Brazilian music and Brazilian-influenced jazz. These two albums, collected in full on one CD, are among Gilberto's best solo albums. Alternating between standards like "'S Wonderful" or "Besame Mucho" and Brazilian tunes like Jobim's "Wave" and the original "Triste," AMOROSO is a fine, romantic jazz album. BRASIL, as the title suggests, consists of six traditional-style sambas, sung in Portuguese to acoustic guitars and hypnotic percussion. Both are essential to Gilberto fans and neophytes. AMOROSO was released in 1977. BRASIL was released in 1981. BRASIL personnel: Joao Gilberto (vocals, guitar); Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Maria Bethania (vocals); ...

Shirley Horn You Won't Forget Me CD  (1991)

Malene CD music
CD $8.05  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Interestingly, Horn rarely takes a solo, but repeats the songs over and over, slightly changing the phrasing and continuously building on the piano to change the emphasis. Every cut is a masterpiece, but the stand out is the title cut. Drummer Steve Williams sets up a strange, repetitive quarter note pattern which sounds like a ticking clock over which Miles Davis' muted trumpet floats and soars as Horn sings and plays piano. The track is especially poignant, ...

Stan Getz Getz/Gilberto CD  (1963)

Malene music CDs
CD $10.79  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
The record that started the bossa nova craze of the mid-'60s, GETZ-GILBERTO is a justly recognized classic. The disc's success is attributable to its spectacular personnel: the man who basically invented bossa nova, Antonio Carlos Jobim; the man who defined and perfected the genre, Joao Gilberto; his charmingly waifish-sounding wife, Astrud Gilberto; and American tenor saxophonist extraordinaire Stan Getz. Jobim plays guitar and piano; Getz provides remarkably lyrical, complementary lead lines, and Joao Gilberto plays and sings in Portuguese with the most understated, romantic, and artful vocal delivery imaginable. It's a hard combination to beat. Opening track "The Girl From Ipanema," a breezy, infectious Jobim composition with vocals by both Joao and Astrud, became one of the biggest (and most recognizable) hits of the era, and the single most popular Brazilian tune in America. The exquisite shuffle "Desafinado," the Joao-Astrud duet "Corcovado," and the eminently grooving "So Danco Samba" have gone on to become standards of both bossa nova and jazz, and the versions here are definitive. Getz's sensitive playing blends seamlessly with the deceptively casual rhythmic sophistication of Jobim, Gilberto, and percussionist Milton Banana. ...

Billie Holiday Songs For Distingue Lovers CD  (1957) Reissue

Malene songs
CD $12.35  4 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Comprised of the last five studio dates Holiday did for Verve, SONGS FOR DISTINGUE LOVERS finds Lady Day operating within her ideal environment; that of a small jazz combo. Accompanied by a legendary line-up including Sweets Edison, Ben Webster and Barney Kessel, Holiday sang with the clear enunciation and easy swing that had become her trademark. Wrapping her phrasing around standards by Rodgers & Hart, The Gershwins and Cole Porter, Billie Holiday demonstrated how years of singing with various jazz bands sharpened her ability to turn a song on its head through slight fluctuations in pitch and tone color. All tracks have been digitally remastered. This is part of the Verve Master Edition series. Recorded in 1957 and 1959. Recorded at Capitol ...

Shirley Horn I Remember Miles CD  (1998)

Malene album
CD $12.39  Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
I REMEMBER MILES won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance. This stunning album is Shirley Horn's loving tribute to her friend and colleague, the legendary late Miles Davis. Davis was so taken by Horn's first album EMBERS AND ASHES that he forced The Village Vanguard to let her virtually-unknown trio open for him during his 1961 run there. Their friendship and admiration for each other's music lasted through the years, and Shirley Horn's 1991 recording YOU WON'T FORGET ME, was one of the last recordings Miles Davis made. Horn selected mostly ballads from Davis' Columbia Records catalogue for her tribute because, as she explains in the liner notes, Davis liked her to sing ballads, and ballads are Horn's specialty. She can slow down time in a unique and spellbinding way. Her sultry and smoky vocals are intimate and conversational, relying on odd metered timing and silence, rather than volume, to make an emotional point. This album's knock out punch is the epic (over 10 minutes long) "My Man's Gone Now" performed in an uncharacteristically (for Horn) abstract style with a double rhythm section and Roy Hargrove wailing and soaring ...

Earth, Wind, And Fire Essential Earth, Wind & Fire CDs  (2002) Limited Edition; Remastered

Malene CD music
CD $15.95  4.7 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Additional personnel includes: Ken Yerke, Harris Goldman (violin); Rollice Dale (viola); Dennis Karmazyn Harry Schultz (cello); Fred Jackson Jr., Herman Riley, Jerome Richardson (saxophone); Tommy Johnson (tuba); Harvey Mason, Paulinho Da Costa (percussion); Beloyd Taylor (background vocals). Recorded between 1973 & 1983. Includes liner notes by Leo Sacks, Virginia Prescott, and William C, Rhoden. "These songs are as close as we came to perfection," says group founder and leader Maurice White in the liner notes to THE ESSENTIAL EARTH, WIND & FIRE. Given the quality of the music in this double-disc package, it's hard to argue. Remarkable for both its commercial success and its inventive hybrid of funk, soul, jazz, and African folk music (White's kalimba is featured as a solo instrument on "Evil," for example), Earth, Wind & Fire are deservedly regarded as one of the finest ensembles of the 1970s. A thorough retrospective of the band's evolution and multiple stylistic directions (often achieved within one song), ESSENTIAL spans from the early, earthy funk of "Mighty Mighty" to the disco-flavored "Boogie Wonderland" (with the Emotions). In between are all of the group's ...
Samba Manhattan Style
Claudio Roditi Samba Manhattan Style CD  (1995)

Malene music CDs
CD $13.79  Audio Samples
The terms bossa nova and Brazilian jazz have often been used interchangeably, but while the bossa nova is part of Brazilian jazz, not all Brazilian jazz is bossa nova. In fact, Brazilian jazz also includes everything from the fusion of Flora Purim, Airto Moreira, and Azymuth to the hard bop of Claudio Roditi. Like Charlie Byrd and the late Stan Getz, Roditi is an expert when it comes to combining jazz with Brazilian rhythms, but unlike them, he isn't coming from a Cool School perspective -- Samba Manhattan Style is heavily influenced by the Blue Note school of big-toned, hard-swinging exuberance. Combining his Brazilian heritage with a healthy appreciation of Clifford Brown, Kenny Dorham, and Lee Morgan, among others, the trumpeter/flügelhornist is lyrical yet hard swinging on Wayne Shorter's "Footprints" as well as originals that include the lively "Gemini Man" and the thoughtful "The Distance Between You and Me" (which shouldn't be ...

The 16th installment in the Classics Erroll Garner chronology combines eight numbers recorded for Columbia in New York on March 30, 1953; eight more for the same label cut in Detroit on July 8, 1954; and two tracks for Mercury Records in Chicago on July 27, 1954. At this point in his career, Garner became increasingly inventive, expressive, and rambunctious, as his bluesy take on Jerome Kern's "Yesterdays" and knuckle-busting renditions of "Frenesi" and "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'" illustrate. The Detroit session is remarkable for the presence of Woody Herman. Familiar to the public as a clarinet-blowing big-band leader with a penchant for rowdy novelty tunes ...
