Haunted Heart

Haunted Heart (1991) more music like this

by Charlie Haden Quartet West

Charlie Haden loves film as much as music, combining both loves on the critically acclaimed Haunted Heart. Haden led his tremendous group Quartet West through 12 numbers, several, like Cole Porter's "Every Time We Say Goodbye," and Alan Broadbent's "Lady In The Lake," Arthur Schwartz and Howard Dietz's "Haunted Heart," and even the short ...

Confirmation: The Best of the Verve Years (1995) more music like this

by Charlie Parker

Anyone daunted by the expense of acquiring the 10-disc Bird: The Complete Charlie Parker on Verve may well have their prayers answered by this 2-CD distillation of the big box. It covers a wide stretch of material from Parker's career, going back to the first JATP concert in 1946 and stretching almost to the end of his Norman Granz period. One ...

Triplicate

Triplicate (1988) more music like this

by Dave Holland Trio

Very much a co-op trio, this ECM date matches together bassist Dave Holland, his old associate Jack DeJohnette and altoist Steve Coleman, who spent time in both of their bands. For the well-rounded date, the band performs one song apiece by Coleman and DeJohnette, four by Holland, a traditional "African Lullaby," Charlie Parker's "Segment" and ...

Live at Birdland

Live at Birdland (1997) more music like this

by Jimmy Bruno & Bobby Watson

This excellent set from guitarist Jimmy Bruno can easily be divided into two. The first four numbers (which include "Move" and "Grooveyard") showcase Bruno in a trio with bassist Craig Thomas and drummer Vince Ector; the guitarist mostly swings quite hard. The other six songs feature the great altoist Bobby Watson, who takes spirited solos on ...

Day In-Night Out (1986) more music like this

by Mike Metheny

On all but the opening cut (which utilizes a different rhythm section), flugelhornist Mike Metheny's second recording matches him with his younger brother, guitarist Pat Metheny, keyboardist Dick Odgren, bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Tommy Ruskin. The material (three originals, Charlie Parker's "Segment," and a variety of melodic obscurities) ...

Integrity (1995) more music like this

by Leroy Vinnegar

Bassist Leroy Vinnegar, a fixture in Los Angeles from the 1950s on, has lived in Portland, OR, since the mid-'80s. Although he was mostly off records from 1977-92 and had a spell of bad health, he is in fine form throughout the 1995 concert documented on his fine release from Jazz Focus. Vinnegar and veteran drummer Mel Brown team up with a pair ...

Verve Jazz Masters 15 (1994) more music like this

by Charlie Parker

For those who haven't yet invested in Definitive's excellent four-CD set Charlie Parker: The Complete Norman Granz Master Takes, Verve Jazz Masters 15 may serve as a useful sampler containing some of this master improviser's best performances recorded between January 1946 and July 1953. In addition to Jazz at the Philharmonic jams ("I Can't Get ...

The Tribe (1994) more music like this

by Mark Little

In the 1990s, Monarch was to the San Francisco Bay Area what Brownstone was to Boston and Delmark and Southport were to Chicago -- a jazz-oriented indie that wasn't afraid to document local talent. You didn't necessarily have to be a native or resident of the Bay Area to record for Monarch, but since the company was based in Palo Alto, CA, it made ...

Intuit (1999) more music like this

by Kurt Rosenwinkel

Intuit, a quartet session devoted entirely to standards, is not entirely representative of Kurt Rosenwinkel's art. However, it does reveal the depth of the guitarist's expertise in the bop idiom, and is therefore worth the attention of devoted fans. Rosenwinkel's sound throughout this straight-ahead excursion is fairly dry -- a touch of reverb, no ...

Rainbow People (2008) more music like this

by Steve Turre

High Note Records has been on a roll in 2008. Larry Willis and David "Fathead" Newman have both issued near career-defining statements on the label in 2008 -- and that's just naming two. To this illustrious duo add trombonist and composer Steve Turre, whose Rainbow People album -- his self-produced third release for the imprint -- may be the ...

The Private Collection (2007) more music like this

by Charlie Haden

Bassist Charlie Haden gained his initial fame with the Ornette Coleman Quartet of 1959-61, developing an innovative style that allowed him to walk the bass and create a forward movement and momentum while not stating a chord structure. Haden worked on other rewarding groups through the years, including his Liberation Music Orchestra, the 1970s ...

Subliminal (1998) more music like this

by Scott Colley

Scott Colley's writing reaches new heights on this very fine record. Joined by Chris Potter on tenor sax and bass clarinet, Bill Carrothers on piano, and Bill Stewart on drums, the bassist delivers some of his most memorable compositions to date. "The End and the Beginning," an uncommonly serene ballad, stands out among the others. But "Out of the ...

On Second Thought (1996) more music like this

by Greg Gisbert

Trumpeter Greg Gisbert is not quite as well known as his sidemen, but he keeps up with them during this advanced hard bop date. The highlights include the original medium-tempo blues "Chapulta Walk," a revival of Thad Jones' "Fingers" (a romp over rhythm changes) with Gisbert being effective on muted trumpet, and tenor saxophonist Chris Potter ...

by John Stetch

Jazz pianist Stetch is well-known for his bravado and imagination as a composer and as an interpreter of other styles of music, as evidenced by his stellar Ukranianism album from 2001. That recording took classic folk songs from Stetch's heritage -- familial, he hails from Canada and lives in New York -- and reinvented them solo-style as ...

Dark Beauty (2004) more music like this

by Issi Rozen

From the 1890s (when cornetist Buddy Bolden had his first New Orleans bands) to the fusion era of the '70s, jazz was in a state of constant innovation. But from the early '80s on, very few innovators have entered the jazz field, which isn't to say that jazz has a shortage of personal voices -- an improviser can have something personal and ...

The Complete Norman Granz Master Takes (2005) more music like this

by Charlie Parker

Charlie Parker's studio recordings have been issued, reissued (and de-issued, so to speak) in so many confusing combinations that anyone seeking a better understanding of his original discography might need a lodestone to hang onto. In addition to his excellent Savoy and Dial recordings, jazz lovers ought to have access to Definitive's wonderful ...
