Of the many jazz pianists who came of age in the 1960s, the brilliant Andrew Hill was not only one of the best, but among the most underrated. Perhaps this is due to Hill's subtle, minimalist, Thelonious Monk-derived style, which was alternately too conservative to attract attention from the out movement, yet too unusual for the average straight-ahead jazz fan. CHANGE is a session from 1966, previously available only as part of a long-out-of-print Sam Rivers Blue Note set issued in the '70s. Hill's quartet consists of Sam Rivers, an urgent, volatile tenor saxophonist; Walter Booker on bass; and J.C. Moses on drums. The titles of Hill's compositions perfectly evoke the mood of this vital, commanding session, with Hill and Rivers in top form.
Personnel: Andrew Hill (piano); Sam Rivers (tenor saxophone); Walter Booker (bass instrument); J.C. Moses (drums).

Change album
 $9.49  
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 Shaw's "In a Capricornian Way." The Afro-Latin-influenced grooves of "Gichi" display Ervin playing ...

Change CD music
$9.45  
ANDREW! finds the avant-garde composer and pianist Andrew Hill following up his landmark 1964 LP, POINT OF DEPARTURE, with a more flowing quintet session, featuring the estimable vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson and Sun Ra tenor saxophonist John Gilmore (in a rare appearance outside of the Arkestra). This is the Blue Note sound of the '60s at its best, cutting edge yet beautifully produced with room enough for full, exploratory improvisations by all concerned. Hutcherson in particular provides a warm, fluent foil to Hill's more abstract conceptions, and Gilmore's bright tone and energetically structured solos ...

Recorded between 1971 and 1998. Includes liner notes by Kevin Phinney.
Over its 30-plus year existence, Oakland's Tower Of Power has established itself as the premiere bastion of true soul and funk in modern music. This ANTHOLOGY represents the best cuts from the group's long and storied history. Although founders Emilio Castillo and Stephen "Doc" Kupka have weathered almost as many personnel changes as years the band has survived, they have always stuck to their original brand of "funkifized" soul with emphasis on their world-famous horn section. With no signs of slowing down, it is evident that the milestone represented by this collection is only one of many more to come.
From the early days of hits like "What is Hip" and "Down to the Nightclub," to later favorites like "Soul With a Capital 'S'" and "So I Got to Groove," Tower Of Power has never apologized for its unabashed continuation of the funk of James Brown. Added to this mix are the moving ballads like "You're Still a Young Man" and "Willing to Learn" that grabbed an even wider audience of R&B lovers. Other favorites included in this mammoth set are the ultra-funky "Soul ...
| | Coleman Hawkins Body & Soul CD (1988) Japan; Remastered
Change album
$25.25
Digitally remastered from original metal parts and master tapes by Ed Begley and Bernardo Cosachov.
BODY & SOUL is a 22-track album by saxophonist Coleman Hawkins.
Named after Hawkins' 1939 proto-bebop classic, this legendary collection proves why Hawkins is considered by many the finest tenor ever. Picking up his career after a stint alongside Louis Armstrong in Fletcher Henderson's big band and five years in prewar Europe, BODY AND SOUL focuses on Hawkins' essential small group sides of the '40s. Here the former swing enthusiast helped create bebop with the help of future jazz icons Benny Carter, J.J. Johnson, Zoot Sims ...

What more could Latin jazz fans ask for, seriously? Not only are all the players just this side of top guns, they have been playing together in the same group for just shy of ten years. An all-star lineup and the genuine synergy that comes with regular collaboration do not happen often. When they do, well, it's clave magic. ...
