Burlington Discover Jazz Festival: Burlington, Vermont, June 3-12, 2011
by Doug Collette
Burlington Discover Jazz FestivalBurlington, VTJune 3-12, 2011 The mix of anticipation and apprehension at the outset of each year's Burlington Discover Jazz Festival is no doubt something akin to stage fright in the mind of any stage performer, musician or otherwise. Will the string of high-profile events meet audience expectations and generate ...
Jimi Hendrix: Band of Gypsys Live at the Fillmore East
by Doug Collette
Jimi HendrixBand of Gypsys Live at the Fillmore EastExperience Hendrix/Legacy Recordings2011 Given the latter years of guitarist Jimi Hendrix's life were fouled by business disputes, it comes as no surprise that the Band of Gypsys, perhaps the foulest such entanglement of them all, was not comprehensively recorded ...
Dawes: Nothing Is Wrong
by Doug Collette
In the process of redefining rootsy rock and roll out from the West Coast, Dawes has had its profile heightened by association lately, with props from Jackson Browne in the pages of Rolling Stone and as accompanists for The Band's Robbie Robertson. But if the group's second album, Nothing Is Wrong, proves anything, it's that this ...
Tedeschi Trucks Band: Revelator
by Doug Collette
A natural extension of Already Free (Victor, 2009), the most recent (but hopefully not the last) studio recording by The Derek Trucks Band, the debut album by the Tedeschi Trucks Band broadens the scope of this blues-rooted music with a bigger and proportionately versatile eleven-piece band. The entire unit kicks in on the catchy ...
Bela Fleck: Rocket Science
by Doug Collette
The musicianship on Béla Fleck and The Flecktones' Rocket Science radiates a sense of play that was missing from the group's last recorded work The Hidden Land (Columbia, 2006). There's also a sense of adventure here that hasn't really been in evidence since Three Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Warner Bros, 1993), the first album recorded ...
Charlie Hunter: Burlington, Vermont, April 24, 2011
by Doug Collette
Charlie Hunter with Erik KalbClub MetronomeBurlington, VTApril 24, 2011 The last time guitarist nonpareil Charlie Hunter came to the greater Burlington area, drummer Erik Kalb also accompanied him--so this recent show was one of the few instances of the idiosyncratic guitarist repeating himself in his last ten years of appearances ...
Garage a Trois: Always Be Happy But Stay Evil
by Doug Collette
Once the most cerebral of groovemeisters, when guitarist Charlie Hunter collaborated with saxophonist Skerik, vibraphonist Mike Dillon and drummer Stanton Moore, Garage a Trois reinvented itself two years ago when keyboardist Marco Benevento took the guitarist's place, a process that now continues with Always Be Happy But Stay Evil. In contrast to the kamikaze ...
Traffic: Traffic: John Barleycorn Must Die Deluxe Edition
by Doug Collette
Traffic reinvented themselves repeatedly over the course of close to three decades together, but perhaps never more dramatically than with John Barleycorn Must Die. The deluxe version of the title suggests the work represents an even more significant turning point for the British band than the only other comparable work in their discography, The Low Spark ...
Hot Tuna: Steady As She Goes
by Doug Collette
Hot TunaSteady As She GoesRed House 2011 Singer and guitarist Jorma Kaukonen's last solo album, River Of Time (Red House, 2009), sounded more than a little like a vintage Hot Tuna album, so it's little surprise the group's first studio album in 20 years has come along ...
The Flying Burrito Brothers: Authorized Bootleg: Fillmore East, Late Show, Nov 7,1970
by Doug Collette
Gram Parsons began The Flying Burrito Brothers with Chris Hillman when the two men left The Byrds in 1968, but the group continued on admirably without Parsons, under Hillman's stewardship, in the role of bassist, singer and songwriter. Authorized Bootleg: Fillmore East compares favorably with the latter-day Burritos' live Last of the Red Hot ...
