But for years, the public didn't have a clear enough picture of Davis' journey from jazz into the rock/funk sounds of James Brown and Jimi Hendrix as well as his use of electric instruments.At the time, all the public knew ...

Peter White: Glow

Read "Glow" reviewed by Dave Hughes

by Dave Hughes

Popular smooth jazz guitarist Peter White continues his mastery of the idiom on Glow, his latest for Columbia. I have to admit, one reason I like Peter White’s work better than most smoothies these days is that his playing always does seem to emit a happy, effervescent glow. His friendly, personable style goes a long way ...

Al Di Meola: Anthology

Read "Anthology" reviewed by John W. Patterson

by John W. Patterson

Okay, okay — he’s fast, he’s suave, slick, and oh so technically clean. Di Meola’s furious, flamenco, fandango, fusion guitar work stands alone. Very few have really ever gained exact echoes of his style. That muted percussive staccato riffage with explosive lead breaks and sudden stop-n-go colorings of tone and note texture have always been impressive.

Miles Davis: 'Round About Midnight

Read "'Round About Midnight" reviewed by Jim Santella

His Harmon mute brought deep feelings to this title ballad in 1956. It also brought wider recognition to a tenor saxophonist who was just starting to climb the stairs. Four titles from those same recording sessions have been added to the original LP and reissued this year on CD. In that respect, it's been a very ...

Read "Lady Day: The Complete Billie Holiday On Columbia (1933-1944)" reviewed by Jim Santella

by Jim Santella

In my solitude You haunt me With reveries Of days gone by Like quite a few other sentimental favorites, Duke Ellington's composition epitomizes the feeling you get when Billie Holiday sings. At the height of the swing era, Holiday's voice sparkled with an expressive sheen. By 1935, she had developed ...

At the time, the audience was hearing something revolutionary and controversial pumping out of the loudspeakers.Little did they know that Davis was about to unleash the electric jazz/rock ...
