On the Track

On the Track (1975) more music like this

by Leon Redbone

This is the debut long-player from Leon Redbone (guitar/harmonica/vocals/throat tromnet), a one-man folk/jazz enigma. Although it was incorrectly rumored that the artist was a musical visage of Frank Zappa, Redbone began getting notice during a stint in Toronto, Ontario, in the early '70s. For On the Track (1975), he offers a uniquely authentic ...

Mercernary

Mercernary (2006) more music like this

by Dr. John

Dr. John's been on a roll since he signed with Blue Note. Each title he's released on the label has been solid, full of New Orleans funk, hot R&B, and swinging, finger-poppin' jazz. Since the Hurricane Katrina disaster, dozens of Crescent City players have been active, and trying to bring the message of the music to the masses like never before. ...

Sultry Serenade

Sultry Serenade (1957) more music like this

by Herbie Mann

For five of the eight cuts here, Mann has a sextet that sports an intriguing sonority -- his flute stands alongside such underappreciated masters as the baritone saxophonist/bass clarinetist Jack Nimitz, trombonist Urbie Green and guitarist Joe Puma. No less a great bassist than Oscar Pettiford lays down the low-end law, while drummer Charlie ...

Legends & Songwriters in Concert 1941

Legends & Songwriters in Concert 1941 (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

On February 25, 1941, the Greek Relief Fund staged a benefit concert at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Greece had recently been invaded by Italy, and though the U.S. was still neutral in the Second World War, sympathy for the Allies was already running high. But the show served a second purpose, in addition to raising money for a good cause ...

by Don Neely's Royal Society Six

This is the first album Don Neely's San Francisco-based Royal Society Jazz Orchestra (founded in November 1975) cut for the Circle label.

Green Pastures (1987) more music like this

by Paul Robeson

Annotator Brian Rust describes this 18-track compilation with a running time just under 50 minutes as containing "a variety of songs that made Paul Robeson famous." Actually, Robeson was already famous when he made the first of these recordings in 1930, and no more famous when he made the last in 1935. The key word in Rust's statement is "variety" ...

Swingin' with Bing! Bing Crosby's Lost Radio Performances (2004) more music like this

by Bing Crosby

The public domain is well stocked with budget discs drawn from Bing Crosby's long radio career. Unfortunately, few are worth the plastic they're etched on, the usual problems including horrid sound quality and little in the way of documentation (regarding their origins) or context (regarding their relation to Crosby's career). Enter Shout! Factory ...

Doin' the New Lowdown (1932) more music like this

by Don Redman

The second of two Don Redman LPs released by the Scottish Hep label has two alternate takes not included on the Classics CDs. Altoist/vocalist/arranger Don Redman led a fine big band during this era, even if they never really hit it big. Such numbers as "Doin' What I Please," "Nagasaki," and "Sophisticated Lady" are memorable, while the two-part ...
