Carmen McRae: Something Wonderful

Read "Something Wonderful" reviewed by Mathew Bahl


The great Carmen McRae’s tenure at Columbia lasted only two years (1961-1962). Most of her work for the label involved collaborations with pianist Dave Brubeck (her Take Five and his Tonight Only and The Real Ambassadors ). In fact, she recorded only two LPs and a few singles that featured material not written by Brubeck. Her ...

Irene Kral: Karal Space

Read "Karal Space" reviewed by Ron Meyers


Long out of print as an LP (on Catalyst) and at a premium when you can find it, Kral Space has finally come to CD. Thank Collectables (#7160) for this.

Each session on this reissue is unusual on its own terms, but when put together makes for a rather strange listening experience.

Slide Hampton: Jazz With A Twist/Explosion! The Sound of Slide Hampton

Read "Jazz With A Twist/Explosion! The Sound of Slide Hampton" reviewed by David Rickert


A few years ago a “new swing revival” burst onto the music scene, bolstered by newcomers like the Brian Setzer Orchestra, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, and the Royal Crown Revue, among others. Suddenly techno clubs featured swing nights, as albums by these artists appeared at the top of the charts. Although the new swing craze has ...

Lars Gullin: Baritone Sax/Lars Gullin Swings

Read "Baritone Sax/Lars Gullin Swings" reviewed by John Sharpe


Baritone Sax/Lars Gullin Swings arrive by way of a rather unlikely source. Released by Collectables Records, a company famous for its 7-inch singles and rock ‘n’ roll reissues, this single CD compiles all of the tracks, save one, from two terrific sessions. Both albums, Baritone Sax (Atlantic, 1956) and Lars Gullin Swings (East-West, 1958), feature Swedish ...
