Songs in the Key of Life

Songs in the Key of Life (1976) more music like this

by Stevie Wonder

Songs in the Key of Life was Stevie Wonder's longest, most ambitious collection of songs, a two-LP (plus accompanying EP) set that -- just as the title promised -- touched on nearly every issue under the sun, and did it all with ambitious (even for him), wide-ranging arrangements and some of the best performances of Wonder's career. The opening ...

At the Close of a Century

At the Close of a Century (1999) more music like this

by Stevie Wonder

He's been called one of the most influential performers and songwriters of the century, but until 1999 Stevie Wonder didn't even have a box set to call his own. Such was the reissue campaign at Motown that, until very recently, some of the best pop music of the '60s sounded poorer in reissue form than when it was first played on AM radio. In 1996, ...

Golden Slumbers: A Father's Lullaby

Golden Slumbers: A Father's Lullaby (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

Take that, snobby straight-ahead jazz purists! Finally, the elite of smooth jazz have put together a project where it would be a compliment to hear that it put you to sleep -- or rather, your children. The mastermind of saxman Dave Koz and his brother, Jeff Koz, and the first release from Koz's Rendezvous Entertainment, this beautifully conceived ...

by David Sanborn

Master saxophonist David Sanborn makes an astounding label debut with Time Again, and once again reminds his fans that he is firmly established as one of jazz's best alto saxophonists.

Original Musiquarium I

Original Musiquarium I (1982) more music like this

by Stevie Wonder

Released in 1982, the double-album Original Musiquarium I summarizes Stevie Wonder's classic period of the '70s, concentrating primarily on the hits, but adding a few album tracks to hint at the depth of his albums, as well as four new songs (one for each side, all pleasant, none particularly remarkable). Though there could be some dispute about ...

Big Wide Grin

Big Wide Grin (2001) more music like this

by Keb' Mo'

The rise in the number of titles in the children's music category around the turn of the century was accompanied by a shift in the approach to such recordings. As baby boomers, who remain loyal record buyers, have become parents, the artists who appeal to them have turned to children's music, but it often seems as though the records are still ...

Take a Break

Take a Break (2003) more music like this

by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes

Two years after punkifying some of the '60s' more popular songs for Blow in the Wind, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes return with Take a Break, their stab at some of R&B's classier, yet almost forgettable, tunes. The So-Cal five-piece is as rowdy as ever and their own punk rock polish is undeniably infectious. What made Blow in the Wind so great is ...

Easy Living

Easy Living (1977) more music like this

by Sonny Rollins

One of Sonny Rollins' better recordings of the 1970s, this spirited Milestone set (reissued on CD under the Original Jazz Classics imprint) finds the veteran tenor saxman adopting a thicker and raunchier R&B-ish tone. Although sticking close to the melody, he really tears into Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely" and finds interesting new variations ...

Star Search Winner: Jake Simpson (2003) more music like this

by Jake Simpson

Twenty-nine-year-old vocalist Jake Simpson was the first winner of CBS' reconstituted Star Search talent contest. His victory netted him the tidy figure of 100,000 dollars in prize money. But it also guaranteed a recording contract with Sony/Columbia. This is an introductory EP, quickly produced to capitalize on Simpson's name recognition. It ...

Once More...With Feeling! (1991) more music like this

by Doc Severinsen & the Tonight Show Band

Of the Tonight Show Band's three Amherst CDs, this is the most highly recommended one. The repertoire is fresher than the songs featured on the two earlier releases and, in addition to the usual swing-era standards, such tunes as Tommy Newsom's "Three Shades of Blue" and Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely" are included. Guest appearances by ...

by Milt Jackson and the Monty Alexander Trio

Pianist Monty Alexander had first appeared on a Milt Jackson record in 1969. Eight years later the great vibraphonist used Alexander's trio (which included bassist John Clayton and drummer Jeff Hamilton, future big-band co-leaders) for this spirited Pablo session that was subsequently reissued on CD through Original Jazz Classics. Much of the ...

Definitive Collection [2CD] (2002) more music like this

by Stevie Wonder

When you're putting together a lengthy collection of a major artist who's had more than 40 Top 40 hits, inevitably there's going to be a lot of good stuff left out. Stevie Wonder's long and varied career (not over when this anthology appeared) really needs more than one disc to even adequately summarize the highlights. But this single-disc comp ...

Song Review: A Greatest Hits Collection [Import Bonus Tracks] (2000) more music like this

by Stevie Wonder

While it's not quite the definitive compilation it could have been, the double-disc Song Review: Greatest Hits is still a good overview of Stevie Wonder's long, prolific career. Skipping over "Fingertips, Pt. 2" and picking up with "Uptight (Everything's Alright)" and "I Was Made to Love Her," Song Review runs through the next three decades, ...

Vintage Grappelli (2001) more music like this

by Stéphane Grappelli

Much has been written about the rebirth of older jazz styles at the beginning of the '70s, but violinist Stephane Grappelli never stopped playing classic swing. Furthermore, he provided a place for multiple guitarists like Martin Taylor to hone their skills and make a living. Vintage Grappelli is just that: two discs from 1981 that find the master ...

Guitar Visions (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

Guitar Visions launches with a lovely guitar duet featuring Bireli Lagrene and Sylvain Luc on Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely." Relying on acoustic guitars, the duo exchanges leads, complementing one another and gently egging one another on. In case this selection seems a bit soft, as in bordering on easy listening, Lagrene's next cut, "Bei Dir ...

Alone (2003) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

This set of unaccompanied guitar solos is quite enjoyable and generally laid-back. Jimmy Ponder had recorded in many settings through the years, but never solo. He emphasizes chords, does not utilize basslines much, and keeps the melodies of the songs nearby. His interpretations are concise and usually at relaxed tempos. The music on Alone can ...

Americana (1999) more music like this

Arturo Sandoval, one of the world's great trumpeters, had recently become an American citizen, so the idea here was to pay tribute to some recent American songwriters. The arrangements are by the likes of Ricardo Eddy Martinez, Doug Bickel, Ed Calle, and Charles McNeil, and the tunes include "Just the Way You Are," Janet Jackson's "Come Back to Me ...

These acoustic guitar duets between Sylvain Luc and the renowned virtuoso Bireli Lagrene finds much common ground to share. From Django Reinhardt gypsyology to bop and pop themes, these two share a beautiful empathy. Of the 13 tracks, you hear the steady stream of swing on "Stompin' at the Savoy," the bopping unison lines of Reinhardt's "Douce ...

The Bill Holman Band (1987) more music like this

This JVC CD is a reissue of a late-'80s CD. Bill Holman has long been one of the top arrangers in jazz but, because he has not recorded all that many albums and because he is based in L.A., he tends to get overlooked in popularity polls. An innovative writer who features crowded yet swinging ensembles and charts that are both complex and colorful, ...

The Best of Lee Ritenour (1981) more music like this

by Lee Ritenour

The Best of Lee Ritenour selects eight highlights from the records the guitarist made for Epic in the '80s. It's a nice sampler, featuring such songs as "Sun Song," "Little Bit of This Land and a Little Bit of That, " "Fly By Night" and "Isn't She Lovely, " which give a good sense of what his stint at the label was like. It's not definitive, but ...
