1981: Emily Remler - Firefly |
Music » Jazz » Mainstream |

 |
 Artist: Emily Remler Album: Firefly Label: Concord Records Year: 1981,release:1992 Format, bitrate: Mp3, 192 Time: 39:39 Size: 54,6 MB It sounds very clichéd to say that many of music's best and brightest have lived fast and died young, but it is so true. From Jimi Hendrix to Charlie Parker to Patsy Cline, the 20th century was full of talented artists whose lives were cut short by their self-destructive ways. In an ideal world, Emily Remler would have had a very long career and made it to seventy or eighty; instead, the guitarist used heroin and died of a heart attack at 32. Firefly was Remler's first album as a leader, and it is a promising debut. Joined by pianist Hank Jones, bassist Bob Maize, and drummer Jake Hanna, a 24-year-old Remler delivers an enjoyable hard bop date. The album isn't groundbreaking by early-'80s standards -- although Firefly was recorded in 1981, it sounds like it could have been recorded in 1961. But there is no law stating that every young jazz musician who comes along has to reinvent the wheel, and Remler (whose influences include Wes Montgomery and Herb Ellis) brings a lot of potential to lively, swinging performances of Horace Silver's "Strollin'," McCoy Tyner's "Inception," and Montgomery's "Movin' Along." The New Jersey native also provides two original tunes ("Perk's Blues" and "The Firefly") and pleasantly surprises listeners by unearthing a pretty but lesser-known Antonio Carlos Jobim song titled "Look to the Sky." Unlike "The Girl From Ipanema," "Corcovado," or "One Note Samba," "Look to the Sky" is far from a standard; however, Remler's heartfelt interpretation demonstrates that the Jobim melody deserves to be much better known. With Firefly, Remler's recording career was off to an appealing start -- a career that should have been much, much longer. ~ Alex Henderson, All Music Guide |

1969: Count Basie - Evergreens |

 Artist - Count Basie Album - Evergreens Label - Groove Merchant Year - 1969, release - 1972 Quality - MP3@320 kbps (LP-rip) Size - 75,2 mb Total time - 34:09 Âå÷íî-çåë¸íûå ñòàíäàðòû â èñïîëíåíèè ëåãåíäàðíîãî îðêåñòðà è åãî âûäàþùåãîñÿ ëèäåðà! The 1969 recording, features alto saxophonist Bobby Plater, tenor saxophonist Eddie Lockjaw Davis and the leader's economical solos; in concise arrangements by Chico O'Farrill, with the exception of "(I Don't Stand) A Ghost of a Chance," which is scored by Eric Dixon. Though most of the songs are standards from the 1930s and 1940s, there are a couple of wild cards. The band has a little bit of fun with a brief but swinging take of the corny "Ma! He's Making Eyes at Me"; while Basie's blues theme "M Squad" (written for the television series of the same name) also seems a bit out of place; though it is a great feature for Eric Dixon on flute. ~ From liner notes |

1940-41: Johnny Hodges, Rex Stewart - Things Ain't They Used To Be |
Dixieland, Swing |

 Artist: Johnny Hodges, Rex Stewart Album: Things Ain't They Used To Be Label: Koch Jazz/BMG Year: rec. Nov 2, 1940-Jul 3, 1941 / rel.2001 Format: MP 3 @320 Kb/s Time: 50:30 Size: 103 Mb AMG rating:  To my friends in JBC! Please enjoy!
Rex Stewart's cornet and the alto saxophone of Johnny Hodges were two essential ingredients in the rarefied chemistry of the Duke Ellington orchestra during the 1930s and early '40s. A large number of records were made during those years by ensembles which were essentially miniature editions of the Ellington band, fronted by some of his star soloists. In 2001 the Koch label reissued 16 recordings made by groups under the direction of Hodges and Stewart between November 1940 and July 1941. Ellington himself sat in at the piano, the bassist was Jimmy Blanton and the drummer was Sonny Greer. In addition to the leaders, some of Duke's primary wind players are heard on this very enjoyable collection: trumpeters Cootie Williams and Ray Nance; trombonist Lawrence Brown, tenor saxophonist Ben Webster and resonant baritone Harry Carney. Like Cootie Williams and Barney Bigard who led their own Ellington offshoot bands, Hodges and Stewart composed plenty of their own material; the Hodges persona is strongly pronounced in "Good Queen Bess," "Goin' Out the Back Way," "Squatty Roo," and "That's the Blues Old Man," which contains melodic seeds of both "Happy-Go-Lucky Local" and its famous offspring "Night Train." Stewart's uncommonly colorful and expressive technique is beautifully employed in "Mobile Bay" and "Poor Bubber," a tribute to one of Duke's earliest featured improvisers. Stewart growls through the horn like a lion to invoke Menelik II, late 19th and early 20th century Ethiopian emperor and anti-colonial resistance leader. This fine album closes with Stewart's tidy treatment of Ellington's "Subtle Slough," later known as "Just Squeeze Me." A sizable selection of earlier recordings by the Ellington Small Groups can be found on various compilations put out by several different labels under the banner of "The Duke's Men." This little package is a good place to start. Arwulf Arwulf, All Music Guide

1949-51:J.J.Johnson, Kai Winding, Benny Green - Trombone By Three |

 Artist: J.J.Johnson, Kai Winding, Benny Green Album: Trombone by Three Label: OJC/ Prestige Year: rec. May 26, 1949-Oct 5, 1951/rel.1992 Format: MP 3 @320 Kb/s Time: 53:00 Size: 75,8 Mb AMG rating:  To my friends in JBC! Please enjoy!
By the time of the earliest of these sessions (1949), the trombone had taken its rightful place in modern jazz due to the efforts of the men who appear here as leaders of the three groups represented. J.J. Johnson was the first to demonstrate the possibilities of adapting the slide to bebop, at first thought playable only on alto saxophone and trumpet due to the preeminence of Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie. Here his virtuosity is revealed in the company of a young Sonny Rollins, Kenny Dorham, a pre-MJQ John Lewis, and Max Roach--a gathering of modern masters. Kai Winding, J.J.’s partner-to-be, is also heard in a sextet format with a working group that if it wasn’t working, was jamming somewhere. Swing was as natural as breathing to Brew Moore and Gerry Mulligan, and George Wallington who played in Dizzy Gillespie’s first group on 52nd Street, was one of the first pianists in the bop style. The Bennie Green date (1951) finds the Chicago-born trombonist in the company of the rough-and-ready tenor of Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis as part of a septet that mixes attitudes of a jumping blues band with some of the more modern elements.

1977: Barney Kessel and Herb Ellis - Poor Butterfly |

 Artists: Barney Kessel & Herb Ellis Album: Poor Butterfly Label: Concord Jazz Year: 1977, release: 1995 Format: FLAC + MP3 (320k/s) Size: 238 & 101 MB (inc. full covers) Total time: 42:41 Herb Ellis had previously recorded with fellow guitarists Charlie Byrd, Joe Pass and Freddie Green, but this early Concord album (reissued on CD) was his first meeting on records with Barney Kessel. It is of little surprise that the two complementary players (who had both been with the Oscar Peterson Trio at different times in the 1950s) work together quite well. With fine support from bassist Monty Budwig and drummer Jake Hanna, Kessel and Ellis (both generally easy to identify) swing their way through some mostly little-played standards, including "Early Autumn" and "Dearly Beloved," plus a few originals by the co-leaders. Fans of the bop guitar will want this sprightly collaboration. ~ Scott Yanow, AMG |

McCoy Tyner & Jackie McLean - It's About Time |

 Artist: McCoy Tyner & Jackie McLean Album: It's About Time Label: Blue Note Release: 1985 Style: Post-Bop Format mp3, bitrate: 320 kb/s vbr Time: 37:15 Size: 58,2 mb (cover) Pianist McCoy Tyner's matchup with veteran altoist Jackie McLean is reasonably enjoyable but less memorable than one might expect. Actually McLean is only on four of the six selections and trumpeter Jon Faddis (who appears on two cuts) sometimes steals the spotlight. Tyner and McLean are accompanied by either Ron Carter or Marcus Miller on bass, drummer Al Foster and sometimes percussionist Steve Thornton. The pianist wrote five of the six selections (including "You Taught My Heart To Sing") but none of the musicians sounds all that inspired. - Scott Yanow at AMG |

 Artist: Ray Brown Trio Album: Black Orpheus Label: Evidence Year: 1989 Release: 1991 Genre: Jazz/Post-Bop Format mp3, bitrate: 320 kb/s Time: 1:03:43 Size: 147 Mb AMG Rating: Whether accompanying or leading a band, bassist Ray Brown was long among jazz's greatest players. These cuts, mostly from 1989 escept for two numbers done in 1991, feature Brown backing soulful pianist Gene Harris and steady drummer Jeff Hamilton on a program combining Afro-Latin material with standards from Johnny Mercer, Fats Waller and others, as well as an excellent rendition of Percy Mayfield's blues/R&B standard "Please Send Me Someone to Love." The songs are long enough to display each musician's skills, but not so lengthy that they become repetitious. It's a well-played, delightful example of the kind of high-powered material that was Ray Brown's stock-in-trade. - Ron Wynn at AMG |
