Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964

Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 (2003) more music like this

by Sam Cooke

Some 46 years after his first pop hit, and 39 years after his death, comes only the second attempt at a comprehensive Sam Cooke collection. Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 eclipses RCA's early-'80s The Man and His Music, going it better in running time but losing some important recordings -- "That's Heaven to Me" and "Soothe Me," arguably one of ...

Decades Rock Live: Bonnie Raitt and Friends [DVD/CD] (2006) more music like this

by Bonnie Raitt

Would that this package were the other way around, but Bonnie Raitt and Friends is a DVD/CD project. The DVD contains an entire set recorded at the Trump Taj Mahal from 2005. Raitt, guitar goddess that she is and overall phenomenal spiritual presence on-stage, is joined by friends Alison Krauss, Ben Harper, Keb' Mo', and Norah Jones for two songs ...

Blow Man, Blow! (1962) more music like this

by King Curtis

71 songs spread among three CDs, covering King Curtis's tenure at Capitol from 1962 until 1965. This wasn't the most productive period in Curtis's career, but it was his first chance to make records on more than a piecemeal basis under his own name; the result is a dazzling array of sounds and songs. Hidden among the country covers and abortive ...

Ain't That Good News

Ain't That Good News (1964) more music like this

by Sam Cooke

The last of his studio albums released in his lifetime, Sam Cooke's Ain't That Good News offers a lot of superb material, pointing in several directions that, alas, were to go largely unexplored. The central number is, of course, the earth-shattering "A Change Is Gonna Come," with its soaring gospel sound and the most elaborate production of any ...

Recorded and released in 1966, Otis Redding's fifth album, Complete and Unbelievable: The Otis Redding Dictionary of Soul found the rugged-voiced deep soul singer continuing to expand the boundaries of his style while staying true to his rough and passionate signature sound.

Country Impressions (1994) more music like this

by Emile Pandolfi

Emile Pandolfi has taken country favorites, including "Tennessee Waltz," "The Sweetest Thing" and "Lady," and in the sweetest piano sound found the heartwarming essence of each piece on Country Impressions.

Rendezvous (1997) more music like this

by Jacky Terrasson & Cassandra Wilson

For this notable set, pianist Jacky Terrasson teams up with the smoky, chance-taking vocalist Cassandra Wilson, either Lonnie Plaxico or Kenny Davis on bass and percussionist Mino Cinelu. The music is quite impressionistic and atmospheric. Terrasson and Wilson stick to standards, but their renditions of such songs as "Old Devil Moon," "My Ship," ...

The second of three duet albums by Ella Fitzgerald and guitarist Joe Pass (which has been reissued on CD) finds the duo uplifting 14 superior standards with subtle improvising and gentle swing.

Sam Cooke at the Copa (1964) more music like this

by Sam Cooke

For decades, Sam Cooke at the Copa was a frustrating record. One of a handful of live albums by any major soul artist of its era, it captured Cooke in excellent voice, and was well-recorded -- it just wasn't really a "soul" album, except perhaps in the tamest possible definition of that term. Playing to an upscale, largely white supper-club ...

Milestone Profiles [Milestone] (2006) more music like this

by Sonny Rollins

As part of the Milestone Profiles series, tenor saxophone legend Sonny Rollins is spotlighted with material recorded between 1972 and 2000. The compilation is especially interesting given that Rollins incorporates electric bass on the majority of these cuts, not to mention the occasional use of 12-string electric guitar and kalimba. Also appearing ...

The Legendary Duo at Their Best (2001) more music like this

by Les Paul & Mary Ford

The silky smooth vocals of Mary Ford blended with the brilliant playing skills of Les Paul produced some of the best pop music of the '50s. On the Legendary Duo at Their Best box set, six of the albums they released between 1950 and 1957 are represented on three CDs. This is a high point for both musicians, as their work together was a perfect fit ...

The Neglected Professor (2000) more music like this

by Charles Thompson

A case could be made for Charley Thompson being one of the greatest early period pianists, ranking right up there with Eubie Blake, James P. Johnson, and Fats Waller. These original Euphonic label sessions of released and several previously unreleased Trebor Tichener house-party recordings show the diverse approach that Thompson used, from ragtime ...

Home Recordings (1999) more music like this

by Elvis Presley

Here's one for the cult of Elvis Presley: 22 home recordings (15 previously unreleased) of Presley and pals sitting around the piano and belting out favorites. The sound quality is often poor, but, as the notes say, "priority has been given to historic content." The historic content, besides the fact that it's Presley, is the inclusion of many ...

The In Crowd Anthology (2006) more music like this

by Ramsey Lewis

A two-CD anthology of Ramsey Lewis' Chess recordings might seem excessive, but considering how much material he cut for the label in the '60s, The In Crowd Anthology is actually fairly selective. Certainly it's good value, with 39 tracks and a running time of two-hours-and-twenty minutes. As for consistency of style and quality, that's another ...
