A New Standard

A New Standard (1999) more music like this

by Steve Tyrell

Although he's achieved most of his success as a producer and songwriter, Steve Tyrell's debut album A New Standard chooses not to showcase his skills at the latter, instead offering Tyrell's vocal versions of twelve standards (including three that appeared in the film Father of the Bride Part II). They're not really exceptional, but they are well ...

With the Oscar Peterson Trio

With the Oscar Peterson Trio (1952) more music like this

by Lester Young and the Oscar Peterson Trio

Defying what has become conventional wisdom, tenor saxophonist Lester Young (when he was reasonably healthy) actually cut some of his greatest recordings in the 1950s. On this wonderful effort with pianist Oscar Peterson, guitarist Barney Kessel, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer J.C. Heard, Prez performs definitive versions of "Just You, Just Me" ...

Released in 1996, Proper Box 97 contains 99 sides recorded under the leadership of master drummer Chick Webb beginning with the session of March 30, 1931 and ending with a recording made live at the Southland Cafe in Boston on May 4, 1939, a little over a month before he succumbed to spinal tuberculosis at the tender age of 30 (his last words ...

Singin' with the Big Bands

Singin' with the Big Bands (1994) more music like this

by Barry Manilow

Like Neil Diamond, Barry Manilow embarked on a transition during the 1990s from being a contemporary pop singer/songwriter to being an interpretive singer on the model of Tony Bennett, who achieved a career resurgence around the same time with a series of thematic albums. Manilow followed 1991's Showstoppers, an album of songs from Broadway shows, ...

Jazz 'Round Midnight

Jazz 'Round Midnight (1992) more music like this

by Oscar Peterson

'92 CD featuring the exemplary trio of pianist Oscar Peterson, guitarist Herb Ellis, and bassist Ray Brown. They've worked together for so long that their empathy and communication has been second nature. Peterson's solos and direction aren't just anticipated; sometimes Ellis and Brown seem to shift with him. Their interaction, dialogues, and ...

Sonny Side Up

Sonny Side Up (1957) more music like this

by Dizzy Gillespie/Sonny Stitt/Sonny Rollins

Dizzy Gillespie brings together tenor saxophonists Sonny Stitt and Sonny Rollins for four extended cuts, and in the process comes up with one of the most exciting "jam session" records in the jazz catalog. While the rhythm section of pianist Ray Bryant, bassist Tommy Bryant, and drummer Charlie Persip provides solid rhythmic support, Stitt and ...

Close as Pages in a Book (1993) more music like this

by Barbara Cook

On her seventh solo album, former Broadway star Barbara Cook finally found a home on her fifth label, show-music-friendly DRG Records. MCA Classics had released her celebrated previous LP, 1988's Disney Album, but that proved to be a one-off project. DRG and producer Hugh Fordin, however, knew what to do with Cook, which was, essentially, to let ...

American Splendor (2003) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Cartoonist Harvey Pekar, whose autobiographical comics serve as the basis for the film American Splendor, and "with a background as a jazz critic since 1959," contributes appropriately illustrated liner notes to the soundtrack album (some of them contained in the multimedia portion of the enhanced CD accessible by computer) in which he helpfully ...

Last of the Whorehouse Piano Players (1989) more music like this

by Ralph Sutton with Jay McShann

Not to be confused with the CD reissue of the same name (Chiaroscuro 206) recorded in 1979, this reunion encounter by pianists Ralph Sutton and Jay McShann (in a quartet with bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Gus Johnson) is up to the same level of the original dates, with plenty of heated moments on songs such as "Old Fashioned Love," "Sweet ...

This double-CD, a straight reissue of a Pablo double-LP, documents a fun set. Altoist Johnny Hodges and some fellow members of Duke Ellington's Orchestra (Ray Nance on cornet, violin and vocals, trombonist Lawrence Brown, baritonist Harry Carney, bassist Aaron Bell, drummer Sam Woodyard and guest pianist Al Williams) jam through a mostly typical ...

Double Live from the U.S.A. and U.K. (2001) more music like this

by Dave Brubeck Quartet

The stockpile of unreleased recordings by Dave Brubeck grew during the 1990s, as Telarc would plan CDs and then change its mind about the order in which to release various titles by the veteran pianist. So this two-CD set is by no means a compilation of leftover material, but some of his finest work during that decade. The first disc consists of ...

The Best of Louis Armstrong [MCA] (1965) more music like this

by Louis Armstrong

Anyone assembling a "best-of" collection involving Louis Armstrong would have to be on one level quite relaxed, aware that just about any selection of cuts would represent the "best" of just about any other artist, few of whom are up to the level of Satchmo even when he was just coasting. It is no doubt that it was his great popularity, and not ...

On this four-CD set are some of Ella Fitzgerald's finest live performances during the years she was managed by Norman Granz.

Spotlight on Jo Stafford is an excellent 18-track overview of her recordings for Capitol Records. Although it doesn't her biggest hits, it does have a good selection of lesser-known gems from later in her career, featuring such highlights as "(It Was) Just One of Those Things," "Too Marvelous for Words, " "In the Still of the Night, " "Fools Rush ...
