GRP All-Star Big Band

GRP All-Star Big Band (1992) more music like this

by GRP All-Star Big Band

When this CD was released, it was a major surprise. GRP is a label whose initial reputation was made on pop-ish jazz. However, co-founders Dave Grusin and Larry Rosen always had a love for the sound of big bands and for hard bop. For this set, they gathered together some of the most notable players on their label to play 12 jazz standards dating ...

Four & More

Four & More (1964) more music like this

by Miles Davis

In an odd bit of programming, Columbia placed the ballads from Miles Davis' February 12, 1964, concert on My Funny Valentine and the uptempo romps on this LP; all of the music has since been reissued on CD. Davis, probably a bit bored by some of his repertoire and energized by the teenage Tony Williams' drumming, performed many of his standards at ...

Cool & Collected

Cool & Collected (2006) more music like this

by Miles Davis

Did we really need this? For the first time in years, Legacy has opted not to issue a deluxe Miles Davis box with a ton of unreleased studio and live material and has instead issued this handy little sampler complete with a Carlos Santana remix tagged on at the end. It's more that Legacy needed to issue it. Still, for those just coming to the ...

Dear Miles

Dear Miles (2006) more music like this

by Ron Carter

Although he has participated in a couple of Miles Davis tribute bands and Herbie Hancock's V.S.O.P., Ron Carter always resisted leading a CD of Davis tunes, until this project. Actually only seven of the ten songs that are performed by Carter's quartet on Dear Miles were associated with the trumpeter (not the two Carter originals or "As Time Goes ...

Saudades (2006) more music like this

by Trio Beyond

Trio Beyond is the name of the group that played at Queen Elizabeth's Hall in London, 2004. Jack DeJohnette initiated a project to pay tribute to the late Tony Williams' Lifetime -- with the late Larry Young on organ and guitarist John McLaughlin, all three were Miles alumni -- a band that, along with the Miles Davis band, spearheaded the jazz ...

Live at Club Mozambique

Live at Club Mozambique (1970) more music like this

by Lonnie Smith

Recorded on May 21, 1970, at Detroit's Club Mozambique, this was shelved and remained unreleased until it was retrieved for CD issue in 1995. It's odd that Blue Note decided to sit on it for so long, because it ranks as one of Lonnie's better sets. The band, featuring George Benson on guitar, is relaxed and funky without being in your face about ...

Somebody's Child

Somebody's Child (2007) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

When you count up the years and numbers, few if any authentic jazz guitarists have sustained as long, consistent, fruitful or interesting a recording career as Ponder. His many efforts for the Muse and High Note labels have set high standards for musicality with integrity, and this recording leaves no doubt as to his continued excellence. This is ...

Bassics: Best of Ray Brown Trio 1977-2000 (2006) more music like this

by Ray Brown Trio

Focusing on the latter part of his career, the double-disc anthology Bassics: Best of Ray Brown Trio 1977-2000 collects a nice cross-section of the recordings bassist Ray Brown made with his various trio configurations for the Concord and Telarc labels. Included is work the iconic musician made with such pianists as Cedar Walton, Gene Harris and ...

Seven Steps: The Complete Columbia Recordings 1963-1964

Seven Steps: The Complete Columbia Recordings 1963-1964 (2004) more music like this

by Miles Davis

Seven Steps: The Complete Columbia Recordings of Miles Davis 1963-1964 is an anomaly among the retrospective sets that have been issued from the late artist's catalog. It does not focus on particular collaborations (Miles with Coltrane, Gil Evans, the second quintet), complete sessions of historic albums (Bitches Brew, In a Silent Way, and Jack ...

The Complete Concert: 1964 (My Funny Valentine & "Four More" (1964) more music like this

by Miles Davis

This two-CD set, which completely reissues the two lengthy LPs My Funny Valentine (a set of lyrical ballads) and Four & More (which is filled with very rapid versions of Davis's standard repertoire), features the 1963-64 Quintet at its best. This particular unit consisted of the greatly underrated tenor-saxophonist George Coleman and the young ...

Unlike typical collections, this CD combines previously issued tracks and music from future projects along with one unissued track that evidently will not appear elsewhere. The selections ...

The Magician (2007) more music like this

by Sammy Figueroa

Percussionist Sammy Figueroa's second CD as a leader for Savant is a dynamic session, with a rotating cast of players in a sextet that often sounds like a much larger band. Drawing from both hard bop repertoire and originals contributed by his musicians, the leader's driving percussion powers the ensembles with a fire reminiscent of Mongo ...

Windham Hill Essential Series (1988) more music like this

Turtle Island String Quartet's Windham Hill Essential Series is a fine overview of the group's recordings for the label, culling the highlights from each of their albums to provide a definitive introduction to the contemporary instrumental quartet. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Miles Away...Wayne in Heavy (1999) more music like this

by Eric Gould

The repertoire of the mid-'60s Miles Davis Quintet is adapted and explored on this excellent CD by pianist Eric Gould, bassist Leon Lee Dorsey, and drummer Greg Bandy. Despite the absence of trumpet and tenor, the 11 songs on the project work quite well in this format. The repertoire includes a few standards ("Nefertiti," "E.S.P.," "Seven Steps to ...

Organist Barbara Dennerlein's second Enja CD matches her distinctive organ and synthesizers with guitarist Mitch Watkins, drummer Mark Mondesir and (on five of the nine numbers) tenor saxophonist Andy Sheppard. Dennerlein contributed seven of the nine selections (the others are "Killer Joe" and "Seven Steps to Heaven") and her music ranges from ...

The Face of Love (1999) more music like this

by Eugene Maslov

A pretty quick follow-up to his first CD When I Need to Smile, Face of Love finds Maslov incorporating guests Toots Thielemans on harmonica and Shirley Horn on vocals, and interpreting jazz and pop music from '60s icons, adding an occasional innocuous synth wash here and there. Eddie Gomez is back on bass for eight cuts, and Willie Jones, George ...

Who Do We Think We Are? (1994) more music like this

by Turtle Island String Quartet

...Turtle Island String Quartet is funked up, cooled down, turned asunder, "rhythmatized" jazz played by a string quartet that goes way beyond the intellectual restrictions placed on the string quartet. Turtle Island String Quartet blows away any staid notions about the violin and cello on Thelonius Monk's "Who Do You Think We Are?," the album's ...

Cookin' with the Mighty Burner (1999) more music like this

by Charles Earland

Organist Earland is known far and wide as one of the more inventive, awe-inspiring, soul-sending practitioners of the B-3. On this set, he still sounds like the man to beat, but in many instances he instead allows his bandmates to shine. Those mates include younger firebrands (trumpeter Jim Rotundi and saxophonist Eric Alexander), as well as ...

Despite the name of the group, this CD does not feature a trio playing swing-era tunes, but the music always swings. Pianist Andy Weyl, bassist Mark Diamond, and drummer Paul Romaine, who have worked together in Colorado for many years, perform a dozen songs by pianists, including four originals from Weyl. The music ranges from an opening blues ...

Like many bandleaders who record for the Sea Breeze label, trumpeter Brad Steinwehe has paid his dues as a sideman and long served as a jazz educator at the university level. His orchestra, which likewise seems to be made up of musicians much like himself, does justice to the mix of familiar jazz compositions and new works. Trumpeter/flugelhornist ...

Rhythms & Rhymes (2003) more music like this

by Fay Claassen

Contrary to what the more Manhattan-centric individuals in the jazz world would have us believe, European jazz vocalists don't have to record in the Big Apple to be legitimate -- a singer can find plenty of first-class improvisers to work with in places like Stockholm, Paris, Oslo, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam. So even if Fay Claassen had never ...
