Stockholm Sweetnin': Surreal Sirens
Source:
JazzWax by Marc Myers
Earlier in the week I was doing some research and stumbled on what has to be the oddest version of Quincy Jones's Stockholm Sweetnin'. It features two singers, Kersti Johanson and Marje Aare—and that's about all I know, except in the video clip they appear to be at the museum at night, almost in a dream sequence, winding up in front of a kitsch portrait that doesn't seem to belong. I can't find any information on the singers nor do ...

Gigging: John Ellis's "The Ice Siren"
Source:
Inverted Garden by Eric Benson
Melding jazz with other idioms is a risky endeavor, one that often ends in a depletion of the music's greatest virtues. Much of the jazz-fusion of the 1970s synthesized the worst of jazz and the worst of rock into a watered-down sound. This can be pleasant enough, but how many of the genre's albums have the full-bodied kick and boozy head-rush of the early Stones or Miles's '60s quintet?
This isn't to say that great jazz can't converse with other ...

All About Jazz
"...performances that enchant, surprise and ineffably capture the imagination. Riley's lyrics and Donald's music seem to flow together in a single flood of invention..." --Jazzwise Magazine
Sirena Riley started her first night in London by opening a 'Time Out' magazine and going to the first jazz open mic session she could find.
