<description><![CDATA[Genesis Genesis: The Movie Box: 1981-2007 Rhino Records 2009

With its entire audio discography now remixed and remastered on 1976-1982 (Rhino, 2007), 1983-1998 (Rhino, 2007), 1970-1975 (Rhino, 2008), and, most recently, Live: 1973-2007 (Rhino, 2009), legendary progressive popster Genesis finishes its series with Genesis: The Movie Box. Like the Live CD box, The Movie Box: 1981-2007 collects a series of concert performances--some making their appearance on DVD for the first time--leaving space for When In Rome 2007 (Rhino, 2008), a three-DVD concert set from the group's 2007 reunion that also includes a nearly two-hour tour documentary, Come Rain Or Shine. Like the other boxes, it's CD-size, with DVDs housed in CD-style jewel cases...]]></description>

 Gov't Mule have long been savvy enough to invite like-minded artists on tour with them, ranging from Xavier Rudd to Back Door Slam to Robert Randolph. Few co-bills, however, have been so potent on paper as this 2009 fall jaunt with Jackie Greene.

<description><![CDATA[Ari Hoenig Quartet Niu's Jazz and Blues Bar Silom, Bangkok, Thailand November 5, 2009

There is no other drummer quite like New Yorker {{Ari Hoenig = 2361}}. Watching him play is like marveling at a cross between Animal, the wild drummer of Muppets fame, and {{Max Roach = 10725}}. His approach to drumming is intense above all, ferocious even at times, and yet his harmonic manipulation of his kit is subtlety itself. The crowd at Niu's Jazz and Blues Bar saw both faces of Hoenig on the opener, an original take on {{Charlie Parker = 10115}}'s eternally popular "Billie's Bounce." Barely a couple of minutes into the song the collective energy of the quartet and tenor saxophonist {{Jamie Oehlers = 15565}}'s gale of a solo brought spontaneous cheers of approval. It was that kind of gig...]]></description>

 For only the second time (the first having been in the fall of 2008), Brazilian singer {{Gal Costa = 16615}} and guitarist {{Romero Lubambo = 14875}} shared the stage for an evening that celebrated the music from their native land, nodding specially to the unforgettable 1958-1963 era that spawned bossa nova, arguably the country's best-known contribution to the music of the world...]]></description>

<title>Miles Davis -- "Birth of the Cool:" Bob Perkins Lectures and the Don Wilson Trio Performs</title>
<link>http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=34578</link>
<description><![CDATA[Birth of the Cool Performed by The Don Wilson Trio Lecture by Bob Perkins October 25, 2009 The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts Philadelphia, PA

This writer could think of no better way to spend an autumn Sunday afternoon than to stroll over to the fabled Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts to hear the revered local disc jockey Bob Perkins reflect upon the groundbreaking {{Miles Davis = 6144}} album, Birth of the Cool, while tunes were performed by the Don Wilson Trio. Wilson himself is a masterful pianist and band leader who got his start in Philadelphia during those salad days when modern jazz was being birthed. With Lee Smith on bass and Craig McIver on drums, a more skilled, professional group would be hard to find to execute the daunting task of catching the vibes from a pioneering album that was voiced for nine instruments, a "nonet," by Davis' collaborator, the great {{Gil Evans = 6596}}. The occasion for the event was an art exhibit by the same name as the album, featuring the canvases of Barkley L. Hendricks, an African American painter who trained at the Academy and went on to an international career. The art work itself was well worth the visit, beautifully expressing in a painterly manner something of that "cool" attitude with a true artist's critical yet appreciative eye for portraiture a la the Dutch masters, but with a postmodern flair...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The role of the church, or more specifically, Christianity, in American culture cannot be overestimated even by those who do not subscribe to the Christian faith. One place where art and Christianity intersected long ago was in music. Since the Middle Ages, music has been used as a vehicle of worship (2000 years before this if the "Judeo-" part of the Judeo-Christian heritage is considered). It has manifested equally in the church and concert hall...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Steely Dan Wells Fargo Theater Denver October 29, 2009

Going to a Steely Dan concert is like riding in a luxury car; you know just what you're going to get: a smooth, comfortable ride. There may not be much in the way of surprises, but it sure feels good. That predictability applies even more on the current tour in which the band has been playing some of their classic albums in their entirety. Thursday night in Denver, the band played perhaps their most popular album, Aja. And the ride was smooth and sweet...]]></description>

With ten CDs to his name, Anderson has authored over a dozen instructional books, and maintains a busy teaching and consulting business.

<description><![CDATA[European Jazz Jamboree Berlin, Germany September 18-24, 2009

 20 years after the Berlin Wall came down, the global appreciation of Germany's jazz is arguably finally getting its due, with no small help from the European Jazz Jamboree (EJJ). In its sophomore year, EJJ has quickly garnered attention throughout Europe, and now the States, too, is (and/or should be) taking notice. Founded and run by entrepreneur Ulli Blobel (who a few years ago also started Jazzwerkstatt, a most distinctive jazz record label), this year's festival, sub-titled "Composers and Improvisers" focused overwhelmingly on the music of mostly bygone American jazz legends (11 of 16 booked acts were "tributes," some more successful than others) such as {{Fats Waller = 11144}}, {{Benny Goodman = 7112}}, {{Duke Ellington = 6521}}, {{Thelonious Monk = 9507}}, {{Charles Mingus = 9429}}, {{Steve Lacy = 8532}}, {{Eric Dolphy = 6340}} and {{Don Cherry = 5668}}. With only a pair of American headliners--pianists {{Uri Caine = 3828}} and {{Dave Burrell = 5478}}, perhaps the most impressive feat of this European festival is its devotion to homegrown talent, a mix of living legends and a crop of up and comers, as well as musicians from countries in close proximity who share somewhat similar if not necessarily complementary aesthetics...]]></description>

<title>Barcelona Jazz Festival -- Allen Toussaint, Aaron Parks y David Soler en el Festival de Jazz de Barcelona (VI)</title>

<description><![CDATA[Allen Toussaint 41 Voll-Damm Festival Internacional de Jazz de Barcelona Luz de Gas 14 de noviembre, 2009

Ese booking agent llamado Katrina (segun le apodo en Barcelona, ironico, el propio {{Allen Toussaint = 10864}}, a quien el ojo mediatico del huracan puso de vuelta en la carretera tras decadas de dedicacion exclusiva a las sesiones de estudio) sigue cerrando fechas para que el pianista exhiba en todo el mundo ese touch que, desde hace ya mas de medio siglo, abrillanta las producciones de multitud de artistas. No es, ese caballero del sur, un pianista descomunalmente virtuoso, pero al mundo le quedan realmente ya muy pocas manos capaces de hacer sonar tan sabio y enciclopedico un Steinway. En su primera visita al festival, Toussaint se zambullo en el patrimonio musical de Nueva Orleans que hace relucir en The Bright Mississippi (Nonesuch, 2009) y picoteo su valioso legado mediante medleys de algunas de sus melodias para Minit Records (sonaron de un tiron "A certain girl," "Mother-In-Law," "Working in the Coal Mine" y "Fortune Teller"; esa ultima mientras daba a entender los cuantiosos royalties que le supuso la version que de ella hicieron los Rolling Stones) asi como canciones pertenecientes a discos de la decada de los 70 que, aunque Toussaint insista que no fueron "una prioridad," crecen con el tiempo: "What is Success," "Sweet Touch of Love," "Get Out of My Life Woman" y la siempre inspiradora "Southern Nights." "Ahora tocare una cancion que escribi para los Neville Brothers cuando ni tan siquiera eran los Neville Brothers," dijo el pianista en un momento del show, orgulloso de que su contribucion en la evolucion del rhythm and blues de la Crescent City sea cada dia mas irrebatible...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In the short history of jazz--only about 110 years--the bass clarinet has had an even shorter existence. Students of Charles Darwin's evolutionary studies might point towards the adaption of the instrument into the new jazz of the 1960s; or perhaps the branch of evolution studies called biogeography might explain that fertile locations spawn growth in the use of certain instruments. Nonetheless, the bass clarinet has only appeared in fits-and-starts throughout the jazz story. If the progenitor was {{Eric Dolphy = 6340}}, his children are {{David Murray = 9702}}, {{Ken Vandermark = 11015}}, Andrew DeAngelo, {{Marty Ehrlich = 6498}} and {{Gebhard Ullmann = 1246...]]></description>
