1966: The Three Sounds - Vibrations |
Music » Jazz » BeBop » Hard-bop |
 |
|
 Artist: The Three Sounds Album: Vibrations Label: Blue Note Year: 1966 Format, bitrate: mp3,320 Kb/s Size: 81Mb The Three Sounds' return to Blue Note wasn't a celebrated event no exact date even exists for these sessions, although in all likelihood it was recorded somewhere in October 1966. Even if the event was poorly documented, it was fairly important for the label, because it signaled that they were backing away from the adventurous hard bop and free jazz they had been recording, and were considering concentrating on the commercially oriented, mainstream soul-jazz the Three Sounds pioneered. Since Vibrations was recorded in 1965, not 1959, there were differences in the trio's approach. Pianist Gene Harris tried organ on a few tracks, and the group tackled contemporary R&B hits ("Let's Go Get Stoned," "Fever," "Yeh Yeh") as well as MOR pop ("It Was a Very Good Year"). The subtle tweaking makes no real difference in the group's sound, since on previous records they took the same approach (only without an organ), but Vibrations doesn't make the first rank of Three Sounds records because the performances are a little stiff, and the infrequent organ sounds a little awkward. There are certainly plenty of good things here and there are more good than bad things but Vibrations primarily offers the kind of pleasures that are only meaningful to dedicated fans. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG |

 Artist: Ron Carter Album: Parade Recording Date: 1979(Rem.2000) Label: Milestone/OJC Format: Flac (image) Size: 150+73,9Mb Äæàçîâûé êîíòðàáàñèñò Ðîí Êàðòåð (Ron Carter) ñ àëüáîìîì «Parade». Ôîòî â ãàëåðåå. Bassist Carter heads a sterling mid-sized band with three trumpeters and saxophonists and two trombones. He handles the job of being both the primary and secondary rhythm support, while guests Joe Henderson, Jon Faddis, and Frank Wess, among others, provide some standout solos. The ensemble interaction clicks as well. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide |

1963: Jimmy Witherspoon - Baby Baby Baby |

 Artist: Jimmy Witherspoon Album: Baby Baby Baby Year: 1963; release:1990 Label: Bluesville/Original Blues Classics Format: Flac (image) Size: 150+75,4Mb Çíàìåíèòûé ïåâåö (áëþç, äæàç) Äæèììè Óèçåðñïóí (Jimmy Witherspoon) ñ àëüáîìîì «Baby Baby Baby». Çàïèñü 1963 ãîäà, ðåìàñòåðèíã 1990 ãîä. Ôîòî ïåâöà â ãàëåðåå. Veteran singer Jimmy Witherspoon is in good voice on this CD reissue, performing a dozen two- to four-minute songs that include such blues standards as Duke Ellington's "Rocks in My Bed," "Bad Bad Whiskey," "One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer" and "It's a Lonesome Old World." He is joined by a quintet featuring altoist Leo Wright and guitarist Kenny Burrell on the first eight numbers and a background septet (with trumpeter Bobby Bryant and Arthur Wright on harmonica) for the remainder of the set. The music is enjoyable if not classic, and should please Witherspoon's many fans. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |

1963: Sathima Bea Benjamin - A Morning In Paris |

 Artist: Sathima Bea Benjamin Album: A Morning In Paris Label: Enja Year: 1963 Release: 1997 (!) Format, bitrate: mp3, 320 kb/s Size: 96 mb AMG Rating  In 1963, singer Sathima Bea Benjamin persuaded Duke Ellington to see her future husband, Abdullah Ibrahim (then known as Dollar Brand), play in a club in Europe. Ellington was impressed by both of the recent South African émigrés and arranged with Reprise to record them. While Brand's record came out within a year, Benjamin's debut was lost and not heard for decades, even by the singer. As it turned out, engineer Gerhard Lehner had made a second copy and kept it for all of these years, so the initial 1997 release of this important session was possible. Backed by pianist Ibrahim, bassist Johnny Gertze, drummer Makaya Ntshoko, and (on two songs apiece) Duke Ellington or Billy Strayhorn, and occasionally joined by violinist Svend Asmussen (who here plays exclusively pizzicato, as if he were using a high-pitched guitar), Benjamin's voice sounds quite beautiful. She performs two Ellington tunes, Strayhorn's "Your Love Has Faded," and nine standards, with the emphasis on slow ballads. The moody music is often haunting and quite memorable. ~ Scott Yanow, AMG Ïðåêðàñíûé èíòèìíûé ãîëîñ, õàðàêòåðíàÿ, çàïîìèíàþùàÿñÿ ìàíåðà ïåíèÿ, ìÿãêàÿ, òÿãó÷àÿ ôðàçèðîâêà, âå÷íîëþáèìûå ñòàíäàðòû, ñêðèïêà íà öûïî÷êàõ, ïðîäþñåðñòâî Ýëëèíãòîíà - âñå ýòî âïîëíå ðàñïîëàãàåò ê ñóááîòíåìó ðàññëàáîíó!

1959: Annie Ross & Zoot Sims - A Gasser! |

|
 Artist - Annie Ross Album - A Gasser! Label - Capitol Year - 1959, release - 1990 Quality - MP3@320 kbps Size - 86,6 mb Total time - 40:16 AMG Rating Ïðåâîñõîäíàÿ âîêàëèñòêà, ó÷àñòíèöà ëåãåíäàðíîãî òðèî Lambert, Hendricks & Ross ïî¸ò â ñîïðîâîæäåíèè çíàìåíèòûõ ìóçûêàíòîâ! Most of this CD reissue contains one of singer Annie Ross' finest sessions away from the premiere jazz vocal group Lambert, Hendricks & Ross. She is joined by either Zoot Sims or (on two numbers) Bill Perkins on tenor, pianist Russ Freeman, Billy Bean or Jim Hall on guitar, bassist Monty Budwig and Mel Lewis or Frankie Capp on drums. Ross' renditions of such tunes as "I'm Nobody's Baby," "Invitation To The Blues," "I Didn't Know About You" and "You Took Advantage Of Me" are highlights. Also on this set are five instrumentals taken from samplers that showcase the talents of Zoot Sims and Russ Freeman. Recommended. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |

1996: Ruben Gonzalez - Introducing Ruben Gonzalez |
Latin, Afro-Cuban Jazz |
|
|
 Artist: Ruben Gonzalez Album: Introducing Ruben Gonzalez Label: World Cicuit/Nonesuch Release: 1998 Genre: Jazz/Afro-Cuban Jazz/Latin Format FLAC -Covers included Time: 45:52 Size:279,65 Mb The most jazz-oriented of the elderly musicians in the Buena Vista Social Club, pianist Ruben Gonzalez was 77 at the time of this CD, his debut as a leader. Although he did not even own his own piano at the time, he plays brilliantly, performing a variety of traditional melodies plus two originals, often quoting other songs and really stretching himself. His chord voicings are distinctive and very inviting, his control of the piano is quite impressive, and the music sings its heart out. The CD was recorded spontaneously over a two-day period with Gonzalez mostly being the lead voice, assisted by trumpeter Manuel Mirabal (who has some fine solos), bassist Orlando "Cachaito" Lopez, several percussionists, and occasionally three background singers. This set is impossible not to love. ~ Scott Yanow, AMG |

 Artist: Enrico Pieranunzi & Horns Album: Evans Remembered Label: Millesuoni Release: 2001 Genre: Jazz/Post-Bop Format mp3, bitrate: 320 kb/s Time: 1:09:07 Size: 171 Mb (cover) “In 1958, my friend brought along Miles Davis’ latest – something called Jazz Track [Columbia CL 1268]. The piano on this stunning record was being played by an unknown musician with an ordinary name: Bill Evans. But the way he was shading his tone was anything but ordinary; he sounded like a classical pianist, and yet he was playing jazz. I was captured there and then – the archetypal pivotal moment.
The concept of the ‘Bill Evans sound,’ instantly enshrined and distilled what I had always hoped to hear.
It was the plaintive harmony, the lyrical tone, and the fresh texture that captivated so; it was the very idea that one style of music could be played with the skills and finesse normally only brought to the other; it was a timeless quality, a feeling that the music has always been there; and above all, it was a yearning behind the notes, a quiet passion that you could almost reach out an touch.” - Peter Pettinger, Bill Evans: How My Heart Sings |
