Workin'

Workin' (1959) more music like this

by Miles Davis Quintet

Workin' is the third in a series of four featuring the classic Miles Davis Quintet: Davis (trumpet), John Coltrane (tenor sax), Red Garland (piano), and Philly Joe Jones (drums). Like its predecessors Cookin' and Relaxin', Workin' is the product of not one -- as mythology would claim -- but two massively productive recording sessions in May and ...

The Legendary Prestige Quintet Sessions [Box Set]

The Legendary Prestige Quintet Sessions [Box Set] (2006) more music like this

by Miles Davis

What you get on Legendary Prestige Quintet Sessions is a rather unwieldy four-disc box set (in a longbox; remember those?) containing the complete recordings of the Miles Davis Quintet with Red Garland, Paul Chambers, John Coltrane, and Philly Joe Jones recorded for Prestige, and remastered and repackaged according to chronology rather than ...

The Complete Savoy and Dial Master Takes

The Complete Savoy and Dial Master Takes (2002) more music like this

by Charlie Parker

Through the miracle of high-resolution digital transfer and mastering technology, Bird enthusiasts can now get an earful of the shape of Charlie Parker's musical accomplishments for Savoy and Dial in the 1940s. Available as a three-disc box set, the alto saxophonist is recorded in various configurations as performer and bandleader with such ...

Career: 1952-1988

Career: 1952-1988 (2005) more music like this

by Chet Baker

While there are numerous collections of trumpeter/vocalist Chet Baker's work, none have attempted to cover his entire career. Using Baker's classic 1952 recording of "My Funny Valentine" and the version recorded a month before his death off The Last Great Concert as melancholy bookends, Shout Factory has put together a solid anthology of the ...

Complete Savoy Live Performances: Sept. 29, 1947-Oct. 25, 1950

Complete Savoy Live Performances: Sept. 29, 1947-Oct. 25, 1950 (1998) more music like this

by Charlie Parker

This four-CD set contains a somewhat streamlined presentation of Parker's complete known live broadcasts from New York's Royal Roost, dating during 1948 and 1949, augmented with five of the live September 29, 1947, Carnegie Hall recordings and one lower-quality tape made in Chicago during 1950. The vitality of these performances still radiates off ...

Joltin' Joe Roland

Joltin' Joe Roland (1950) more music like this

by Joe Roland

Other than a Bethlehem album in 1955 and a few obscure titles, all of vibraphonist Joe Roland's recordings as a leader are on this enjoyable CD reissue. Roland, best-known for an early '50s stint with George Shearing's Quintet, was a excellent vibist whose style fell somewhere between Terry Gibbs and Milt Jackson. He is paired in two 1954 quintets ...

In the Tradition, Vol. 2

In the Tradition, Vol. 2 (1974) more music like this

by Anthony Braxton

Braxton's set of vintage bop and mainstream songs, done with reverence and, for the most part, extreme competence. These seemed to be Braxton's answer to those who claimed he knew little about jazz tradition and even less about how to present it on album. Reaction to both albums was strong; fellow alto saxophonist Bob Mover even cut an album in ...

Reincarnation of a Love Bird, Vol. 71-81

Reincarnation of a Love Bird, Vol. 71-81 (1994) more music like this

by Paul Motian & the Electric Bebop Band

The Electric Bebop Band is a very different ensemble on its second album than it was on the first. Apart from drummer and bandleader Paul Motian, the only member remaining from the debut is guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel; the place of his erstwhile counterpart Brad Schoeppach has been taken by Wolfgang Muthspiel, while saxman Joshua Redman has been ...

Birdland 1951 (2004) more music like this

by Miles Davis

These ten tracks, taken from radio broadcasts from the legendary Birdland in 1951, represent a particularly fruitful period in Miles Davis' development as a bandleader. There are three different broadcasts included here; two comprising six cuts in total were from June and September and have been issued in various forms on bootlegs over the decades ...

Bop (1996) more music like this

by Frank Morgan

Although all eight selections on this CD have been played many times before (the only song not a boppish warhorse is John Lewis' "Milano"), altoist Frank Morgan makes each of the pieces sound fresh. As producer John Snyder is quoted in the liner notes, this is bop without cliches. Morgan, who is assisted by pianist Rodney Kendrick, drummer Leroy ...

What's New in the Tradition (1974) more music like this

by Anthony Braxton

This compiles the earlier two volumes into one release. The great avant-gardist Anthony Braxton threw the jazz world a curve with these two albums. Braxton, filling in for an ill Dexter Gordon, was joined by pianist Tete Montoliu, bassist Niels Pedersen, and drummer Tootie Heath for a set of jazz standards. Braxton pays tribute to each song's ...

Real Crazy-Young Sonny: 1949-51 (2002) more music like this

by Sonny Rollins

Real Crazy-Young Sonny: 1949-51 features Sonny Rollins in a hodgepodge of settings during his formative years. Joining Rollins are Miles Davis, Fats Navarro, and other icons of the period. While it is by no means the place to start listening to the brash tenor man, it may hold interest for die-hard fans who should find these obscure recordings ...

Social Call (1984) more music like this

by Charlie Rouse

Tenor saxophonist Charlie Rouse, 59 at the time, is in top form for this bop-oriented set. Teamed up with trumpeter Red Rodney, pianist Albert Dailey, bassist Cecil McBee and drummer Kenny Washington, Rouse performs Don Sickler arrangements of four jazz standards (including "Half Nelson" and Tadd Dameron's "Casbah"), plus an obscurity ("Greenhouse ...

Lament (1986) more music like this

by Frank Morgan

Frank Morgan's comeback (he had gone 30 years between recordings) was a major story in the mid-1980s. For his third record as a leader (which only followed his second by less than a year), the altoist is once again matched up with pianist Cedar Walton and drummer Billy Higgins, although this time Buster Williams is on bass. Morgan mixes together a ...

Alto saxophonist Jackie McLean and tenorist Dexter Gordon join forces for this live recording at the Montmartre Jazzhus in Copenhagen, taped over two nights in 1973. They're well accompanied by the Kenny Drew Trio (with Drew on piano, Niels Pedersen on bass and drummer Alex Riel). The chemistry between McLean and Gordon is obvious, as they are ...

Sonny Side (1989) more music like this

by Ken Peplowski

Switching between tenor, clarinet and alto, Ken Peplowski is hard-swinging and consistently brilliant throughout this quintet set with guitarist Howard Alden, pianist Dave Frishberg, bassist John Goldsby and drummer Terry Clarke. The music is mostly mainstream swing, with the highlights including "Ring Dem Bells," "When I Take My Sugar to Sea," ...
