Rahsaan Roland Kirk - The Case of the 3 Sided Dream in Audio Color |
Jazz, Hard-bop, Post-bop |
 |
 |
 Artist: Rahsaan Roland Kirk Album: The Case of the 3 Sided Dream in Audio Color Recording Date: 1975 Label: Atlantic Genre: Jazz Format: Flac Size: 228+132Mb Мультиинструменталист, всего владел 45! инструментами, Роланд Кирк (Rahsaan Roland Kirk) с альбомом «The Case of the 3 Sided Dream in Audio Color». В этой записи он играет на флейте, трубе, саксафоне(альт и баритон) и манзелло (manzello - внешне напоминал альт-саксофон, а звучанием был ближе к сопрано-саксофону). Советую прослушать. Review by Thom Jurek, AMG: Perhaps I am an apologist for Rahsaan Roland Kirk, I don't know. If I am then I should be smacked, because he needed no one to make apologies for him. The Case of the 3-Sided Dream in Audio Color is a case in point. The namby-pamby jazz critics, those "serious" guys who look for every note to be in order before they'll say anything positive, can shove it on this one. They panned the hell out of it in 1975, claiming it was "indulgent." Okay. Which Kirk record wasn't? Excess was always the name of the game for Kirk, but so was the groove, and here on this three-sided double LP, groove is at the heart of everything. Surrounding himself with players like Cornell Dupree, Hugh McCracken, Richard Tee, Hilton Ruiz (whose playing on "Echoes of Primitive Ohio and Chili Dogs" is so greasy, so deliciously dirty it's enthralling), Steve Gadd, and others from that soul-jazz scene, it's obvious what you're gonna get, right? Nope. From his imitations of Miles Davis and John Coltrane on "Bye, Bye, Blackbird" to his screaming, funky read on "High Heel Sneakers" to his Delta-to-New-Orleans version of "The Entertainer," Kirk is deep in the groove. But the groove he moves through is one that is so large, so universal, deep, and serene, that it transcends all notions of commercialism versus innovation. Bottom line, even with the charming tape-recorded ramblings of his between tunes, this was his concept and it works like a voodoo charm. Here's one for the revisionists: This record jams. |

A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan (1996) |

 Artist: Various Artists Album: A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan Year: 1996 Label: Sony Movie Information....: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0179491/ DVD Retail Date......: March 31, 1998 Audio:AAC,320(CBR) Video:704х544,MPEG-4,Video Bitrate:3500,FPS:25.0 Movie Runtime........: 01:19:13 Size: 2,05 ГБ (716MB+716MB+716MB+2,74MB) Концерт посвященный памяти Stevie Ray Vaughan,Ведущий концерта его старший брат Jimmie Vaughan. Участвуют: B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton и другие Unlike most tribute albums from the '90s, A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan isn't a lifeless collection of piecemeal studio performances — it's a fiery, living tribute, which is only fitting for a guitarist who shone intensely and brightly during his brief life. Recorded live in Stevie Ray's hometown of Austin, TX, the album features many of Vaughan's idols, friends, and admirers ripping through his most famous numbers. Many of these musicians — including his brother Jimmie, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, and Buddy Guy — played with Stevie the night he died, which makes the record all the more poignant; also on hand are superstars like B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, Dr. John, and Art Neville. Although the memory and occasion remain bittersweet, the music on the album is simply teeming with life — everybody plays their heart out. Best of all are the collective jams at the end and the two new songs, "Six Strings Down" and "SRV Blues," which were written in Vaughan's memory. In short, it's what a tribute should be — a celebration of life, not death. Thom Owens, AMG |

Art Tatum - Solos |
Jazz, Swing |
 |
 |
 Artist: Art Tatum Album: Solos(1940) Release Date: 1940(Rem.1990) Label: Decca Jazz / MCA Records Type: Compilation Genre: Jazz Format: Flac Size: 111Mb Об этом пианисте сказано достаточно лестных слов, я думаю повторяться не стоит, просто нодо найти и прослушать его сборник Solos(1940), ремастированный на лейбле MCA Records в 1990 году. Review MCA's short-lived Decca CD-reissue program put out this gem, all of Tatum's piano solos from 1940, including two versions of the previously unknown "Sweet Emalina, My Gal." Some of the routines on these standards were a bit familiar by now (this "Tiger Rag" pales next to his 1933 version) but are no less exciting and still sound seemingly impossible to play. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |

1957: Art Blakey - Midnight Session |
Hard-bop, Blakey Art |
 |
 |
 Artist: Art Blakey Album: Midnight Session Label: Savoy Records Year: 1957 Quality: mp3, 320 kb/s Size: 81 mb Art Blakey - a powerful musician and a vital groover; his brand of bluesy, funky hard bop was (and remains) profoundly influential on mainstream jazz. Art Blakey has made almost a fetish of giving young musicians a "chance" to perform with his group. The band's legacy is thus not only the often exceptionally fine music it produced, but as a proving ground for several generations of jazz musicians. "I'm gonna stay with the youngsters. When these get too old I'll get some younger ones. Keeps the mind active." He was born today, October 11, 1919. В честь дня рожденья знаменитого барабанщика, бэндлидера и "воспитателя" многочисленных молодых талантов, которым он давал площадку для взлета в своем ансамбле на протяжении более чем 30 лет, предлагаю прослушать его замечательный альбом "Midnight Session". |

Chico O'Farrill - Cuban Blues The Chico O'Farrill Sessions |

 Artist: Chico O'Farrill Album: Cuban Blues The Chico O'Farrill Sessions Label: Verve Format: mp3 320 kbps Size: 340 MB Total time - 153:34 Arturo ‘Chico’ O’Farrill
28.10.1921, Гавана, Куба Трубач, аранжировщик и композитор. Стал известным в 50-е годы, успешно соединив традиционное звучание биг-бэнда с кубинскими ритмами.
Выходец из немецко-ирландской семьи. В 15 лет приехал в США, в 1936–40 учился играть на трубе и фортепиано в Гейнсвилле (шт. Джорджия). В 1940 году вернулся в Гавану и решил заняться юриспруденцией. Только в 1948 году рискнул приехать в Нью-Йорк и полностью посвятить себя музыке. Начал писать аранжировки для Бенни Гудмена, Мачито, Чарли Паркера (Afro-Cuban Jazz Suite), Стэна Кентона (The Cuban Suite), Диззи Гиллеспи (Manteca Suite), Арта Фармера (Aztec Suite). В 1953–55 несколько раз собирал биг-бэнды, затем вернулся на Кубу, а в 1959 уехал в Мехико, чтобы писать музыку для кинофильмов. В 1965 вновь оказался в Нью-Йорке, занял пост музыкального директора студии CBS, аранжировал для оркестров Каунта Бэйси, Кларка Тэрри, Кола Тжадера, Гленна Миллера, Фрэнка Уэсса, Мачито, Диззи Гиллеспи, собирал студенческие бэнды. Самым успешным оказался его биг-бэнд 1995 года.
For any and all Latin jazz collectors, casual or serious, this is a fabulous deal, for it gathers together no less than six exceedingly rare Chico O'Farrill Clef and Norgran 10" albums, plus one under Machito's name, onto a slimline two-CD set. It will also come as a revelation to anyone who might scoff at anything associated with the 1950s mambo craze, for these discs reveal O'Farrill as a sophisticated, even daring arranger/composer who reached beyond merely providing a beat for dancers. Many of these charts -- whether for the brief, dance-oriented Latin numbers; ultra-familiar standards like "Malaguena" and "The Peanut Vendor"; or jazz tunes -- are loaded with intricate figures and striking harmonies obviously gleaned from classical study, all crisply executed with a brash, shiny edge by his Afro-Cuban groups and bands staffed by American jazzmen. Occasionally, he even conjures a delicate, classical ambience from a number like "Angels' Flight" (named after Los Angeles' legendary downtown funicular). The apotheosis of O'Farrill's experiments are his two full-blown, groundbreaking Afro-Cuban jazz suites. The first features Flip Phillips and the redoubtable Charlie Parker as soloists within the Machito band, and the second is even bolder in its zigzag journey through the classical, Latin, and jazz camps. Yet for all of his erudition, O'Farrill never forgets to ask for madly percolating Afro-Cuban grooves from his rhythm teams -- which clinches the deal for any Latin music fan. ~ Richard S. Ginell, All Music Guide |

Candido Camero de Guerra - Brujeias de Candido |
Music » Jazz » Latin |
 |
 |
 Artist: Candido Camero de Guerra Album: Brujeias de Candido Label: Tico Release date: 1971 Format: MP3 320 kbps Size: 92 MB Candido's first album for Tico is a pure triumph. Fortunately, there's only one crossover cover ("Shadow of Your Smile"), and once that's safely programmed out (or left in as a break), listeners are left with ten tracks of impossibly dense features for Candido, each of which proves how apt his "Thousand Finger Man" title was. The studio band is mid-size, punchy, and energetic enough to prove a foil for Candido's conga, but never overly focused on themselves. Nearly every song features plenty of solo space, and the man finds great things to say even on hoary old chestnuts like "Almendra" or "El Manicero" (aka "The Peanut Vendor"). The opener, "Here Comes Candi," and the side-one closer, "Take More Candi," are two of the most frenetic arrangements Candido's ever been a part of, and they're just two songs on a joyous, celebrative album. Vocalist Gran Alfonso joins the festivities for great features on "Negrito" and the calypso tribute "Back to Back." ~ John Bush, All Music Guide |

 |
 Artist: Michael Feinstein Album: The Sinatra Project Label: Umgd/Concord Year: 2008 Format/Bitrate: MP3/320 kbit/s Size:75,4 MB Classic romantic songs of the legendary Frank Sinatra delivered by the Master of the American Songbook himself, Michael Feinstein. On this amazing release Feinstein has chosen to reflect the Sinatra sensibility by interpreting the songs in conceptually different styles from Sinatra's own renditions. The results are a fascinatingly unique and memorably beautiful. |

John Pizzarelli - Knowing You (2005) |

 |
 Artist: John Pizzarelli Album: Knowing You Year: 2005 Label: Telarc Genre: Vocal Jazz Format, bitrate: MP3@320 kb/s Time: 0:55:23 Size: 129,82 MB REPOST with new links from Robinzon. Guitarist/vocalist John Pizzarelli returns with another solid collection of tastefully swinging standards on Knowing You. Never straying too far from what he does best, Pizzarelli is nonetheless an exciting improviser and pleasing vocalist who always finds a way to make an old chestnut of a tune his own. Here, his rapport with such longtime bandmates as pianist Ray Kennedy, bassist Martin Pizzarelli, and drummer Tony Tedesco is instinctual, full of humor, and filled with call-and-response interplay. To these ends, Pizzarelli has compiled an enjoyable set of well- and lesser-known standards, including the sprightly swinger "Coffee, Black," the elegantly mellow "The Shadow of Your Smile," and the sweetly unexpected Brian Wilson classic "God Only Knows." That interesting song choice and the Rupert Holmes-esque original title track also show Pizzarelli's ability to push his talents into contemporary areas without alienating his fan base. Also joining in are Pizzarelli's wife, vocalist Jessica Molaskey, along with pianist Larry Goldings, tenor saxophonist Harry Allen, and others. ~ Matt Collar, All Music Guide Джон Пиццарелли - вокалист редких в наши дни качеств. Белый 45-летний итало-американец из Нью-Джерси, поющий свинговые стандарты и забавные песенки из наследия великих американских песенников начала-середины прошлого века; при этом - вполне удовлетворительный гитарист, умеющий развлечь публику унисонным или даже (изредка) гармоническим пением без слов параллельно с гитарным соло; при этом - продолжатель династии, сын одного из последних ярких гитаристов традиционного джаза, Бакки Пиццарелли... Кстати, Джон дебютировал в начале 80-х в ансамбле отца, да и сейчас 79-летний папа Бакки совсем не прочь выступить и записаться с сыном - правда, уже не как солист, а как один из последних мастеров аккордовой игры на свинговой ритм-гитаре. Новый альбом Джона - 20-й в его дискографии и 6-й на Telarc - с уверенностью можно назвать лучшим (наряду с маленьким шедевром "After Hours" - Novus, 1995). За полтора десятилетия работы с постоянным квартетом (пианист Рэй Кеннеди, барабанщик Тони Тедеско и еще один член династии - контрабасист Мартин Пиццарелли, второй сын Бакки) взаимодействие Джона и его музыкантов достигло почти телепатического уровня, а изысканная работа приглашенных солистов изрядно украшает несложную игру ансамбля - особенно хочется отметить органиста Лари Голдингса, тенориста Харри Аллена и супругу Джона, певицу Джессику Моласки. Самое главное здесь, впрочем, все-таки вокал Джона - бесхитростный, романтичный, безо всяких украшений и технических ухищрений. Это и есть сила Пиццарелли: спеть просто. Или - просто спеть. И попасть в точку. |

 Artist - Serge Chaloff Album - Blue Serge Label - Capitol Jazz Year - 1956, release - 1998 Quality - MP3@320kbps Size - 90,1mb (rapidshare) Total time - 41:55 REPOST Baritonist Serge Chaloff's final recording as a leader is his best. Blue Serge is a quartet outing with pianist Sonny Clark, bassist Leroy Vinnegar and drummer Philly Joe Jones. Chaloff had already contracted the spinal paralysis that would kill him a year later but there is no hint of any weakness on this date. Whether it be "The Goof and I," "I've Got the World on a String" or a beautiful rendition of "Stairway to the Stars," this recording features Serge Chaloff at his best. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |
