The Best Blue Note Album in the World Ever

The Best Blue Note Album in the World Ever (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

The Best Blue Note Album in the World Ever may boast a silly title, but it's hard to argue with what's on this double-disc sampler. Not all of the label's greatest artists are here, but everything is representative, showing how hard bop like John Coltrane's "Blue Train" and Lee Morgan's "The Sidewinder" coexisted with soul-jazz from Grant Green ( ...

Complete Blue Note 45 Sessions

Complete Blue Note 45 Sessions (1959) more music like this

by Ike Quebec

During his comeback years (1959-62) after a decade mostly off the scene, tenor saxophonist Ike Quebec recorded frequently for Blue Note. He started off with a session aimed at the 45 jukebox market and, although he eventually made a few full-length albums for the label, Quebec cut four 45 dates over a two-and-a-half-year period. This double-disc ...

It Might as Well Be Spring [RVG Edition] (2006) more music like this

by Ike Quebec

Working with the same quartet that cut Heavy Soul -- organist Freddie Roach, bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Al Harewood -- Ike Quebec recorded another winning hard bop album with It Might as Well Be Spring. In many ways, the record is a companion piece to Heavy Soul. Since the two albums were recorded so close together, it's not surprising that ...

Blue Break Beats, Vol. 1

Blue Break Beats, Vol. 1 (1992) more music like this

by Various Artists

Blue Note released the two-volume Blue Break Beats compilation in the early '90s. The music on Blue Break Beats dates from the late '60s and early '70s, when a large portion of Blue Note's soul-jazz artists began experimenting with funk and rock, creating dense electric fusions that concentrated on rhythm, not improvisation. None of this music has ...

Bossa Nova Soul Samba [Bonus Tracks] (2007) more music like this

by Ike Quebec

This was veteran tenor saxophonist Ike Quebec's final recording as a leader. It was cut in October 1962 and produced by Alfred Lion a little more than three months before the saxophonist's death. Bossa Nova Soul Samba was recorded and released during the bossa nova craze, as Brazilian music was first brought to the attention of pop listeners via ...

Blue Note Plays Sinatra

Blue Note Plays Sinatra (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

Besides being lauded by the masses, Sinatra got his fare share of kudos from the jazz fraternity, too. From those who worked directly with him on recording sessions to the many players who just admired his unique and powerful brand of phrasing, the top jazz players of the '50s and '60s had plenty of respect for the Chairman's lungs. This Blue Note ...

Heavy Soul

Heavy Soul (1961) more music like this

by Ike Quebec

Thick-toned tenor Ike Quebec is in excellent form on this CD reissue of a 1961 Blue Note date. His ballad statements are quite warm, and he swings nicely on a variety of medium-tempo material. Unfortunately, organist Freddie Roach has a rather dated sound, which weakens this session a bit; bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Al Harewood are typically ...

The Savoy Story, Vol. 1: Jazz (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

The old Savoy catalog gets bounced around from one distributor to the next like an unwanted foster child, with everyone starting from scratch once they get a hold of it. By 1999, it was Atlantic's turn and, hot on the heels of other label retrospectives, they have compiled a very good three-CD anthology of Savoy's jazz activities over 15 years in ...

Blue Bossa, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Blue Note's Blue Bossa Volume 2: Cool Cuts from the Tropics collects 15 summery, Latin-inflected cuts, including Horace Silver's "Swinging the Samba," Lou Rawls' version of "The Girl from Ipanema," and Stanley Turrentine's "La Fiesta." From bright to pensive, bop to bossa nova, Cool Cuts from the Tropics delivers a spicy blend of Latin and jazz ...

Another great gem in Blue Note's Blue compilation series, Midnight Blue features some of the greatest sensual, nocturnal songs issued by the label over its entire history. Johnny Hartman's buttery voice seduces on "The Nearness of You," Nat King Cole and George Shearing soothe on "Fly Me to the Moon," and on "You Don't Know What Love is," ...

by Various Artists

This two CD collection was originally released as part of Blue Note's 60th Anniversary boxed set. Jimmy Smith, who was signed by Alfred Lion after he saw just one of Smith's shows, sets the pace for this chronicle of the organ fever of soul jazz. Other great organists featured include John Patton, Larry Young, and Freddie Roach. Aggressive and ...

This single CD draws its material from Blue Note dates (reissued in much more complete form by Mosaic) that feature guitarist Tiny Grimes, tenors Ike Quebec and John Hardee, trombonist Benny Morton and clarinetist Jimmy Hamilton as leaders. Unfortunately, the sampler does not contain any complete sessions, but it does give listeners a strong taste ...

Ballads (1960) more music like this

by Ike Quebec

Tenor saxophonist Ike Quebec always had a big, warm sound, and he was particularly expert on ballads. This 1997 sampler CD surprisingly does not have any examples of his early work on Blue Note in the mid- to late 1940s, instead concentrating on selections from four of Quebec's seven late-period Blue Note albums, a few songs originally issued as ...

Art of the Saxophone Ballad (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

With a wealth of saxophone masters spread across 21 cuts, Indigo's Art of the Saxophone Ballad is an hour-long treatise on the power of reeds to put over a ballad. Highlights are plentiful, but extra points go to Coleman Hawkins' "How Deep Is the Ocean," Ben Webster's "I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good)," Charlie Parker's "Embraceable You," Dexter ...

Blue and Sentimental [RVG] (2008) more music like this

by Ike Quebec

Ike Quebec's 1961-1962 comeback albums for Blue Note were all pretty rewarding, but Blue and Sentimental is his signature statement of the bunch, a superbly sensuous blend of lusty blues swagger and achingly romantic ballads. True, there's no shortage of that on Quebec's other Blue Note dates, but Blue and Sentimental is the most exquisitely ...
