Clifford Brown & Max Roach

Clifford Brown & Max Roach (1954) more music like this

by Clifford Brown/Max Roach Quintet

According to the original 1955 liner notes to Clifford Brown and Max Roach, the announcement that Clifford Brown and Max Roach had begun recording and playing together sent shock waves throughout the jazz community and predictions ran rampant about how the two might shape bop to come. The last duo to really shape the music had begun over ten years ...

The Complete Pacific Jazz Recordings (2006) more music like this

by Gil Evans

Gil Evans released two records on World Pacific in 1958 and 1959. They were among his earliest dates as a leader. Gil Evans & Ten was issued by Prestige in 1957, but these dates stand out more.

Unsung Heroes

Unsung Heroes (2000) more music like this

by Tierney Sutton

Tierney Sutton's light, sweet voice is not yet as familiar to most jazz fans as those of Ella Fitzgerald or Sarah Vaughan, but on the evidence of her first two albums, it deserves to be. Her flexibility and control are world-class, and she has a sense of taste that has never failed her on record; although her technique is superb, she never seems ...

Time Out

Time Out (2007) more music like this

by Buddy Rich

A previously unreleased live recording from various unattributed dates in 1977 and 1978, Buddy Rich leads his 15-piece big bands through exuberant music that for the most part avoids the contemporary R&B flavored jazz he was veering towards. Under the auspices of recording engineer, bandmember, and saxophonist Alan Gauvin, these 11 tracks ...

Back to Birdland (2001) more music like this

by George Shearing Quintet

The quintet formula that George Shearing popularized on his many recordings for over three decades before disbanding it in 1978 has been occasionally revived by the pianist; this edition features Shearing's longtime bassist Neil Swainson and preferred drummer Dennis Mackrel, along with vibraphonist Don Thompson and guitarist Reg Schwager (both of ...

Glass Ceiling (1993) more music like this

by Andy LaVerne Trio

Andy LaVerne's series of consistently fresh CDs for Steeplechase kicked off in the late '80s and shows no signs of letting up, making one wonder if record labels in his native land are too busy searching for the latest young jazz superstar to notice his immense talent. This trio session from 1993 features the pianist with frequent collaborator ...

Stan Getz's first recording for Concord finds him returning to the strictly acoustic straightahead format, performing six standards with a quartet comprised of pianist Lou Levy, bassist Monty Budwig and drummer Victor Lewis. Getz is in particularly fine form on the title cut, "Joy Spring" and "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes." Scott Yanow, All ...

Midnight Groove: Art of Smooth Jazz

Midnight Groove: Art of Smooth Jazz (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Midnight Groove: The Art of Smooth Jazz contains 15 tracks culled from the Windham Hill vaults. By some definitions, this isn't quite smooth jazz -- it's closer to contemporary instrumental than the lightly funky fusions of the Yellowjackets -- but it is smooth, relaxing and ambient, and it should appeal to fans of any of the featured artists, ...

Leap Frog (2007) more music like this

by Texas Christian University Jazz

Many college bands around today sound quite professional in their ensembles, although their soloists tend to be erratic and justifiably immature since they are relative youngsters. While the soloists are much better than usual on this two-CD set, Leap Frog is a typical outing by a college orchestra. Actually several bands are represented since the ...

I Remember Clifford (1992) more music like this

by Arturo Sandoval

Due to the straight-ahead nature of the music on this CD, plus trumpeter Arturo Sandoval's self-restraint, I Remember Clifford has been many jazz purists' favorite among the trumpeter's releases. Sandoval, who is joined by pianist Kenny Kirkland, bassist Charnett Moffett, drummer Kenny Washington, and either Ernie Watts, David Sanchez, or Ed Calle ...

On the Sunny Side of the Strip (1993) more music like this

by George Shearing

This is one of five live George Shearing Quintet LPs whose contents were reissued as part of a Mosaic CD box set. Superior to the pianist's studio mood music albums of the period, this set is quite bop-oriented with such songs as "Jordu," "Confirmation," "Bernie's Tune" and "Joy Spring" being given the Shearing treatment. Vibraphonist Emil ...

Complete Muse Sessions (1997) more music like this

by Houston Person & Ron Carter

In 1989-1990, tenor saxophonist Houston Person and bassist Ron Carter collaborated in duet studio sessions on the Muse label for the recordings titled Something in Common and Now's the Time. For both of these musicians this was somewhat a departure, as Person's soul-jazz persona and Carter's bop mentality is more pronounced and recognized. Of ...

The Definitive Clifford Brown (2002) more music like this

by Clifford Brown

Trumpeter Clifford Brown had a brief career. He started playing jazz in the late '40s but was killed in a car accident in 1956 (along with pianist Richie Powell, younger brother of Bud). In that short time his interest in expanding the bebop medium is apparent on The Definitive Clifford Brown. Several of the legendary hard bop quintet sides he ...

Raya Yarbrough (2007) more music like this

by Raya Yarbrough

Raya Yarbrough is a most intriguing singer. Like Maria Muldaur, her music stretches across many genres, making the division between the styles a bit confusing if not irrelevant. Best known in Los Angeles, Raya Yarbrough shows on her debut CD that she is heading towards fame as long as she can resist being categorized. She splits her CD between ...

Solo (2004) more music like this

by Jimmy Bruno

On this superb CD, Jimmy Bruno picks up where Joe Pass left off in playing unaccompanied solo guitar. Without overdubbing or using a tapping technique, Bruno plays melody lines, harmonies and bass patterns, often simultaneously. His interpretations of nine standards and two originals are concise, melodic and purposeful, moving forward and ...

Verve's Norman Granz took his microphones and equipment to the fourth annual Newport Jazz Festival in July of 1957 and recorded extensively there, catching several live sets by both established and up-and-coming jazz artists in wonderfully clear and uncluttered sonic fullness, including this Sunday evening set from the Oscar Peterson Trio (Oscar ...

Joy Spring is a compilation of straight-ahead tracks that guitarist Larry Coryell recorded over a four-year period for the Muse label, now reissued on the refueled and retooled Savoy Jazz label.

Major Jazz Minor Blues (1998) more music like this

by Larry Coryell

A jazz-rock pioneer during the late '60s and '70s, Larry Coryell was also a strong performer in a straight-ahead setting, as evidenced by his recordings for Muse during the latter half of the '80s. Major Jazz Minor Blues reissues ten titles from those records, most in a trio setting, and finds him reacting well with sidemen including bassists ...

Trumpet Evolution (2003) more music like this

Trumpeter Arturo Sandoval is one of those cats who can never be predictable.

Trumpet Evolution, which is literally a journey through the great trumpeters from jazz's and orchestral music's past, is easily the finest ...

Barney Kessel's Swingin' Party at Contemporary (1960) more music like this

by Barney Kessel

In 1960, a title like Barney Kessel's Swingin' Party at Contemporary must have sounded more like popular slang than a style of jazz. And indeed, the double meaning was intentional: this live effort was recorded at a swinging record label party at Contemporary and the music performed by guitarist Barney Kessel is definitely swing. Backed by pianist ...
