Los Hombres Calientes, Vol. 1

Los Hombres Calientes, Vol. 1 (1998) more music like this

by Los Hombres Calientes: Irving Mayfield & Bill Summers

Hombres Calientes ("The Hot Men") are actually pretty cool. With a spare sound straight out of the Afro-Cuban and jazz traditions, they prove capable of boiling the pot when called upon. They consist of young trumpeter Irvin Mayfield, veteran percussionist Bill Summers, and the youngest member of the Marsalis family, drummer Jason. Bassist David ...

by Los Hombres Calientes: Irving Mayfield & Bill Summers

On their second effort, Los Hombres Calientes exchange bassists (David Pulphus for Edwin Livingston), and Ronald Markham shows up on Hammond B-3 and keyboards. The record, a 71-minute, 18-cut musical treatise, features a much larger complement of vocalists and percussionists, and even a string quartet on three selections. Hombres Calientes, Vol. 2 ...

Los Hombres Calientes, Vol. 4: Vodou Dance

Los Hombres Calientes, Vol. 4: Vodou Dance (2003) more music like this

by Los Hombres Calientes: Irving Mayfield & Bill Summers

This is the kind of album that some critics like to say "erases musical boundaries," but think about that for a minute. If you go around erasing musical boundaries for long enough, what you eventually end up with is only one kind of music, and how much fun would that be? Luckily, Los Hombres Calientes are engaged in just the opposite project; what ...

Half Past Autumn Suite

Half Past Autumn Suite (2003) more music like this

by Irvin Mayfield & Gordon Parks

Trumpeter and los Hombres Calientes co-founder Irvin Mayfield's third album for the Basin Street label is an ambitious suite of compositions written in honor of photographer Gordon Parks, whose works were placed on exhibit in the New Orleans Museum of Art in 2000. As might be expected, Mayfield's compositions tend towards the abstract and ...

Vol. 5: Carnival

Vol. 5: Carnival (2005) more music like this

by Los Hombres Calientes: Irving Mayfield & Bill Summers

Vol. 5: Carnival of this hopefully never-ending series takes the idea of Carnival and fashions an entire lengthy album of fusions of nearly every kind of music at their fingertips. As always, trumpeter Irvin Mayfield, percussion guru Bill Summers and company fling themselves from their home base in New Orleans to all over the Caribbean and clear ...

Irvin Mayfield

Irvin Mayfield (1998) more music like this

by Irvin Mayfield

Though the booklet for Irvin Mayfield's debut CD as a leader proclaims "The Anatomy of a Revolutionary," the young trumpeter sounds very much like a follower here, another in the never-ending parade of neo-boppers from New Orleans. Mayfield sports a lightweight, brilliantly articulated tone, no doubt capable of every imaginable technical feat, but ...

Strange Fruit

Strange Fruit (2005) more music like this

by Irvin Mayfield & The Orleans Jazz Orchestra

The fuzzy black-and-white photo on the cover of the booklet says it all: a white woman, head down, standing beside a noose. In a sense, Irvin Mayfield has come up with an ambitious sequel to Wynton Marsalis' massive oratorio about slavery, "Blood on the Fields," whisking forward to the 1920s, when the Deep South had long since exchanged slavery ...

Los Hombres Calientes, Vol. 3: New Congo Square (2001) more music like this

by Los Hombres Calientes: Irving Mayfield & Bill Summers

This is the third album from Los Hombres Calientes, and the first since the departure of the group's most famous member, drummer Jason Marsalis. His absence is conspicuous from the first glance at the album cover, which is graced only by the two remaining hombres, trumpeter Irvin Mayfield and percussionist Bill Summers. In small print reads, ...

Live at the Blue Note

Live at the Blue Note (1999) more music like this

by Irvin Mayfield Sextet

The early 20-something trumpeter Mayfield has his sextet solidly planted in the post-to-hard-bop jazz of the late '50s. Trombonist Delfeayo Marsalis and alto saxophonist Wessell Anderson form an impressive young frontline with Mayfield, bassist Carlos Enriquez, and drummer Jaz Sawyer, who get to their business in fine style. It is pianist Eric ...

Love Songs, Ballads and Standards (2008) more music like this

by Irvin Mayfield

New Orleans native Irvin Mayfield was devastated to learn that Hurricane Katrina had taken the life of his father in 2005. The sessions and live performances heard on this CD were also lost to the storm, but fortunately, the trumpeter had mixes preserved on his iPod, so the music was saved. Veteran jazz educator/pianist Ellis Marsalis is Mayfield ...
