Van Morrison: What
by Chris M. Slawecki
As I have grown, Van Morrison has steadily become one of my favorite singers. Maybe that's because it’s so tough to explain what he does or what kind of singer he is. You find him lumped in retail bins between Meat Loaf and Morrissey under “pop/rock”... which is an easier sell, I guess, than “the real ...
Al Green: I Can
by Chris M. Slawecki
Some of the most classic of the classic sounds of 1970s soul were written, arranged, and performed by Al Green and producer Willie Mitchell for the Hi label in Memphis. The two come back together with original Hi studio musicians (and for real soul brothers) Mabon “Teenie” Hodges on guitar and Leroy Hodges on bass, plus ...
Chucho Vald?s: New Conceptions
by Javier AQ Ortiz
Latin jazz’s premiere quartet issues yet another skillful interpretation of Ellingtoniana, straight-ahead jazz and blues tenets – as well as Afro-Cuban music – in a compact, exhilarating release. Jesïs “Chucho” Valdïs is at what might be the zenith of his career, as his chops ably attest. New Conceptions features the usual muscularity, intensity and intellectual reach ...
Joe Lovano: On This Day... At The Vanguard
by Jim Santella
The nonet that Joe Lovano brought to New York’s Village Vanguard the last week of September 2002 returned to the good old days of jamming with well-known friends and improvising over established tunes. Like Supersax, the ensemble emphasizes a collective sound that features unison melodies that ring familiar and true to the veteran bebop fan. Everybody ...
Eliane Elias: Brazilian Classics
by Joshua Weiner
Now that longtime Blue Note pianist/singer Eliane Elias has left the label for RCA/Bluebird, several compilations of her work are being released, including the present item, Brazilian Classics. A cynic might note “just in time for Christmas,” but even if its release is motivated mainly by marketing concerns, the CD provides a useful, focused troll through ...
Chucho Vald?s: New Conceptions
by Jim Santella
His quartet and guests give Chucho Valdïs an eclectic atmosphere through which he parades his enthusiasm for American jazz and traditional Cuban music. His heavy piano tirades provide the kind of strength that is needed when one pumps up the volume with Latin percussionists in abundance right and left. Soloists from Irakere share the spotlight this ...
Lou Donaldson: The Natural Soul
by Clifford Allen
Throughout the ‘60s, Blue Note pretty much held a monopoly on both of hard bop's children: modal jazz (of the Jackie McLean variety) and soul jazz (John Patton, Lou Donaldson and company). Of course, the soul jazz community does not limit itself to the simple pleasures of R&B party records, the reason why clean vinyl copies ...
