Never No Lament: The Blanton-Webster Band

by
Duke Ellington
Never No Lament: The Blanton-Webster Band, covering the years 1939-1942 in the great composer and bandleader's career, is essentially the third time that RCA has issued this material on CD. The first was a botched job, appalling even, with its flattened-out, compressed sound, along with a chopped version of "Take the A-Train" and other sonic and ...

Music for Lovers

by
Jimmy Smith
Part of Blue Note's Music for Lovers series -- although points should be taken off for the lousy covers -- these nine cuts show a different side of the wild, inventive, and funky soul-jazz organist Jimmy Smith. These ballads were recorded between 1958 and 1960 (with one exception, "Little Girl Blue," taped in 1957), all of them standards. Smith is ...

Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington was a gifted composer, a brilliant bandleader, and a skilled pianist who, like Fats Waller, learned his craft from James P. Johnson, Luckey Roberts, and Willie "The Lion" Smith. In 2007 the French Cabu label did the world a favor by releasing a double-disc anthology containing some of Duke Ellington's all-time ...

Endure, if you will, an entire army squadron marching into the cool music den the moment the needle hits the vinyl. Let them stomp up and down on the freshly reupholstered furniture with their muddy boots. Let the contingent of military snare drummers sharpen their sticks, like the wooden stakes of vampire hunters, and let them drive these stakes ...

Martial Solal
Martial Solal had built up quite a following in France by the time these French sessions were issued in the U.S. in the early '60s. An incredible bop pianist with a technique that hints at elements of Art Tatum and Bud Powell, the solo material focuses on popular standards, including a romp through "Anything Goes," a joyous "Flamingo," and a ...

Live in Las Vegas

by
Gene Ludwig
Veteran organist Gene Ludwig is a contemporary of Jimmy Smith and plays in a similar style. Teamed with a solid if unremarkable quartet, Ludwig stretches out on eight standards, some of which are pretty extended. The music falls between hard bop and soul-jazz and is both pleasing and a little derivative. Few surprises occur, but Ludwig plays well ...

This seventh volume -- of 11 in the Bear Family Blowing the Fuse series -- is another case of the woollier and wilder side of R&B as it moved into the 1950s. The 28 tracks from 1951 showcased here offer sure signs of the music's big bang that would erupt as rock & roll in just a few short years. While many of the artists here have appeared on the ...

The RCA Bluebird Centennial Collection with its single-CD/bonus-DVD combination is simply unbeatable for the money. In the case of Duke Ellington, one has to realize that any single-disc collection will be woefully inadequate, and this is no exception. However, of the 20 tracks included here, the cross section of material the composer and ...
