This Heat: This Heat

Read "This Heat" reviewed by Nic Jones


With the benefit of hindsight, the arrival of one of the first incarnations of punk rock on the British music scene in the late 1970s was largely beneficial, making waves within a largely complacent music industry. The negative effects, however, might have been detrimental to the likes of This Heat, which was unfortunate. However, given the highly individual nature of their music, their crossover potential was less than zero, as their first album exemplifies.

I have no recollection of whether ...

10 Latin Albums for the Heat

10 Latin Albums for the Heat

Source: JazzWax by Marc Myers

When the temperature closes in on 95, as it did yesterday in New York, I put on Latin music. Growing up without air conditioning in Manhattan's Washington Heights in the 1960s, heat meant the thumping beat of a big square electric fan, a wash cloth, and boogaloo and early salsa. You could hear the music walking down Broadway, especially from 158th to 175th streets. Over the years, I've collected quite a bit of Latin music with the guidance of friends ...

Not Heat, Rain, Wind or Presidents! Nothing Really Stops Jazz in Detroit

Not Heat, Rain, Wind or Presidents! Nothing Really Stops Jazz in Detroit

Yes. The Detroit Jazz Festival came to a thunderous halt on its second night, thanks to a torrential downpour and ferocious winds that forced cancellation of the final two rounds of music. And yes. This marked the first time in the festival's 32-year history that Mother Nature pre-empted the schedule of North America's largest free jazz festival. But it was a temporary setback. Kenny Werner and Toots Thielmans had to cut short their elegant duo as the Waterfront Stage became ...

Canned Heat, Featuring Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown - Live at Montreux 1973 (2011)

Canned Heat, Featuring Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown - Live at Montreux 1973 (2011)

Source: Something Else!

Canned Heat, the doomed boogie-blues revivalists, only made a lone appearance at the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival. Yet they still managed some star-crossed magic. By 1973, co-frontman Alan “Blind Owl" Wilson had already tragically passed, an overdose victim at just 27. Stepping in, however, with Bob “The Bear" Hite and the rest of his Delta-rocking brethren was Clarence “Gatemouth" Brown, giving this recording a vibrating once-in-a-lifetime specialness. Already huge festival draws, after signature appearances at Monterey Pop in 1967 and ...

Starlicker Trio (Mazurek, Adasiewicz, Herndon) Turns up the Heat on "Double Demon"

Starlicker Trio (Mazurek, Adasiewicz, Herndon) Turns up the Heat on "Double Demon"

Source: Gapplegate Music Review by Grego Edwards

The trio Starlicker (as heard on their release Double Demon, Delmark DE2011) is not your usual line-up playing the usual sorts of things. First off the instrumentation is not at all the norm. There's Rob Mazurek on cornet, Jason Adasiewicz, vibes, and John Herndon on drums. What this means in terms of sound has much to do with how the band approaches what could be a somewhat quieter ambiance, especially compared with Mazurek's large ensemble Exploding Star Orchestra (see this ...

Talks Heat up to Improve Download Sound Quality, but is It Just an Excuse for Higher Prices?

Source: HypeBot

According to several sources, iTunes, eMusic, Amazon and other digital music retailers are in talks with the major labels about improving the quality of sound in music downloads. But for most of those sitting at the table, better sound quality may be more about making money than sonic improvements. Studio recordings are often captured in 24-bit high-fidelity. But before they become downloads or pressed onto CD, they are usually downgraded to 16-bit files. From there, the compression usually continues in ...
