| | Kenn Cox Introducing Kenny Cox And The Contemporary Jazz Quintet CD Kenn Cox Discography of CDs
Hard-bop pianist Kenny Cox released two solo albums in the late 1960s exhibiting his highly accessible style. His debut, appropriately titled INTRODUCING KENNY COX, was originally released in 1968, and was reissued in 2007. INTRODUCING rarely ranges left of center (although some of the solos reveal the influence of the freer trends of the time). Instead this is classic 1960s hard bop complete with swinging, uptempo pulses, athletic runs, and plenty of technical prowess all around. This fine date will interest fans of the style and the era.
Kenn Cox (Piano): Kenny Cox (piano); Leon Henderson (tenor saxophone); Charles Moore (trumpet); Ron Brooks (bass instrument); Danny Spencer (drums).

Introducing Kenny Cox And The Contemporary Jazz Quintet album
 $9.49    
This larger group session was recorded for Blue Note in 1969 but had to wait until 2003 to see the light of day. It was worth the wait, since PASSING SHIPS is one of composer-pianist Andrew Hill's most varied and distinctive efforts. Actually, the group here isn't all that big when you check the lineup, but Hill's skillful writing makes it sound as if we're listening to a more spacious ensemble. In addition, he makes most effective use of reedman Joe Farrell's multi-instrumental talents here. Not only does Farrell excel in the usual tenor and soprano saxophone roles but it's his English horn that sings the plaintive theme on the title track and his dusky alto flute that establishes the mood ...
| | Andrew Hill Dance With Death CD (1968) Remastered
Introducing Kenny Cox And The Contemporary Jazz Quintet CD music
$9.69 
Andrew Hill's Dance of Death, recorded in 1968 with a stellar band, was not issued until 1980. In the late 1960s, Blue Note was no longer the most adventurous of jazz labels. While certain titles managed to scrape through -- Eddie Gale's Ghetto Music did but only because Francis Wollf personally financed it -- many didn't. The label was firmly in the soul-jazz groove by then, and Hill's music, always on the edge, was deemed too outside for the label's roster. Musically, this is Hill at his most visionary. From hard- and post bop frames come modal and tonal inquiries of staggering complexity. Accompanied by trumpeter Charles Tolliver, saxophonist Joe Farrell, drummer Billy Higgins and bassist Victor Sproles, Hill engages, seemingly, all of his muses at once. Check out the sinister modal blues that is "Fish 'N' Rice" with its loping Eastern-tinged blues and loping horn lines ...
| | Booker Ervin Tex Book Tenor CD (2005)
Introducing Kenny Cox And The Contemporary Jazz Quintet music CDs
$10.25
Tex Book Tenor was recorded in 1968 as a follow-up to Booker Ervin's debut date for Blue Note, The In Between, which was released in January of the same year. (Ervin had made two records for Pacific Jazz, which is now owned, like Blue Note, by EMI.) The album remained unreleased until 1976, when it was issued with an also unreleased Horace Parlan date on a double LP called Back from the Gig. This is its first appearance on CD. The lineup is stellar and includes Billy Higgins, Woody Shaw, Kenny Barron, and bassist Jan Arnet from Czechoslovakia. Barron and Ervin had worked together before, and Arnet had worked with Ervin three years earlier as a touring partner in Germany. The music here includes three Ervin originals, Barron's wonderful "Gichi," and ...
