It Might as Well Be Spring [RVG Edition] (2006) more music like this

by Ike Quebec

Working with the same quartet that cut Heavy Soul -- organist Freddie Roach, bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Al Harewood -- Ike Quebec recorded another winning hard bop album with It Might as Well Be Spring. In many ways, the record is a companion piece to Heavy Soul. Since the two albums were recorded so close together, it's not surprising that ...

Re-Bop: The Savoy Remixes

Re-Bop: The Savoy Remixes (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

In tandem with the release of Re-Bop: The Savoy Originals, the jazz label also issued a corresponding album under the name Re-Bop: The Savoy Remixes. The originals, while they may not have always been the most famous from the artists' repertoires, are still a nice collection of songs. But the purpose of Remixes isn't the jazz. Rather, it's what ...

The Cooker [RVG]

The Cooker [RVG] (2006) more music like this

by Lee Morgan

The Cooker was released in 1957 when Lee Morgan was a tough, forward-thinking young trumpeter of nineteen. This session placed him in the company of veteran players such as baritone saxophonist Pepper Adams, swinging pianist Bobby Timmons, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Philly Joe Jones. The music, a collection of boppers such as Dizzy's "A ...

Something to Live For

Something to Live For (1999) more music like this

by Ella Fitzgerald

Ella Fitzgerald recorded so much, and so much of what she recorded was so good, that the notion of one album summing her up is all but ludicrous. That said, this two-disc set, a companion to a television documentary by the same title, comes the closest of any album so far. It is the first album to span the two most important eras of her recordings ...

On the Cool Side

On the Cool Side (1985) more music like this

by Ben Sidran

Ben Sidran's musical persona has always been one of cool-cat hipster, talk-singing his songs in a style reminiscent of his mentor, Mose Allison. On the Cool Side was one of his more commercially viable solo releases, finding an audience on the small coterie of contemporary jazz stations in the mid-'80s. The title track is a classic of the genre, ...

Music for Lovers

Music for Lovers (2006) more music like this

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 ...

Giants of Jazz: Love Songs (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

Giants of Jazz: Love Songs is nice single-disc collection of romantic mainstream jazz. Included are such solid and mellow cuts as guitarist Kenny Burrell's version of "Tenderly," guitarist Pat Martino's blissful take of Antonio Carlos Jobim's "How Insensitive," and alto saxophonist Charlie Parker's classic take of "Don't Blame Me." While this is ...

Women of Substance (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

Women of Substance indeed. This smart little comp from Savoy Jazz puts together a tough selection of cuts by singers as different as Big Maybelle and Annie Ross; as completely opposite as Carol Welsman and Etta Jones, and as innovative as Sarah Vaughan and Morgana King. There's more, of course, by jazz singers like Ann Hampton Callaway, Albinia ...

1945-1946 (1997) more music like this

by Dizzy Gillespie

The 1945-1946 edition of Gillespie's Classics series finds the bop trumpeter in the kind of top-notch company he kept throughout most of the '40s. Leaving sideman dates for other discs, the 23-track set spotlights Gillespie with his Tempo Jazzmen and an early version of his orchestra; while the former included the stunning likes of Lucky Thompson, ...

Dizzy Gillespie is heard at the height of his vanguard years on the single-disc compilation Gettin' Dizzy: The High Flying Dizzy Gillespie, featuring 15 remastered tracks, recorded between 1945 and 1952 for the Savoy label. This is the era that Dizzy outgrew his all-star sideman status as trumpeter in Billy Eckstine's big band to become a first ...
