Gershwin & Jobim: Here To Stay album
 $10.45   
Acoustic-guitar virtuoso Kaki King's sophomore effort improves on the dynamic instrumental compositions of her debut to include a wider range of textures, moods, and ever-evolving structures. King is also backed by a cadre of supremely sensitive musicians on LEGS TO MAKE US LONGER, and the cello, violin, upright bass, and drums add rich, complex color to King's already-sophisticated playing. Except for an electric guitar on the eerily quiet "Can the Gwot Save Us?" and King's under-the-radar singing on "My Insect Life," the spotlight is on the guitarist's stunning technique, which, even through its rapid-fire bass lines and ringing harmonics, never sounds flashy or forced.
Based on the meditative, space-filled opener, "Frame," listeners might associate King's work with the moody, avant-garde ambient jazz often found on the ECM label. The comparison is an apt one--King spins atmospheric landscapes from her fretboard, whether via nimble finger-picking (the spiraling melodies on "Doing ...
| | Michael Buble It's Time CD (2005)
Gershwin & Jobim: Here To Stay CD music
$10.65 
Michael Buble's third major US release (including the mostly live COME FLY WITH ME) stays on message--this young Canadian loves the lush, swaying music of his parents' and grandparents' generations. Buble's albums, however, are much more than mere back-in-the-day exercises. The production and arranging of David Foster (Celine Dion, Josh Groban) is eclectic in a way that firmly places the tunes at the dawn of the 21st century, and, more importantly, Buble possesses the chops and sense of style to re-imagine the adult-contemporary vocal genre in a distinctive manner. In addition to standards by Gershwin and Porter, Buble embraces a variety of sounds, from Motown ("How Sweet It Is") to bossa nova ("Quando, Quando, Quando" with Nelly Furtado) to the Beatles ("Can't Buy Me Love" with a "She Loves You" tag). With his smooth croon and charming persona, Buble is a natural performer, and, for fans of fearlessly romantic and ...

| | South CD (1999)
Gershwin & Jobim: Here To Stay music CDs
$12.25
South's wonderful debut seduces and lulls you into its world. The music sounds like the result of a bio-scientist's attempt to genetically engineer a cross between Steve Reich and The Incredible String Band. Gorgeous interlocking motives are lovingly performed on guitar, vibraphone, hammered dulcimer (and whatever else was lying around) to create an intriguing and beautiful "Reich and Roll." The spare "cream of consciousness" lyrics ...
| | Medeski, Martin & Wood Uninvisible CD (2002)
Gershwin & Jobim: Here To Stay songs
$12.55 
On their eighth studio release, the experimentally inclined jazz-rockers Medeski, Martin, and Wood open up their organ-trio sound in new and unexpected ways. Trading in their earlier, groove-oriented sound for a more eclectic interest in moods and melodies, the group finally dives headlong into the hip-hop and electronica vibe it's been sniffing around at least since 1998's COMBUSTICATION. On tracks like the hypnotic "Retirement Song" or "Pappy Check," the polyrhythmic scratching of guest turntablist DJ Olive isn't employed for sonic color, but as a fully-fledged instrument in the mix.
Keyboardist John Medeski largely steps aside for once, leaving bassist Chris Wood to drive the songs, especially on the funky "The Edge of Night" and the pure hip-hop groove of "First Time, Long Time." Other tracks explore a more noodly, almost ambient feel, especially the closing "Off the Table," which starts with a wild Mellotron solo that sounds like someone spiked Rick Wakeman's curry with acid ...
