Joshua Redman: Compass
by Doug Collette
Joshua Redman has made some fine albums in the past, including Timeless Tales (For Changing Times) (Warner Bros., 1998), Passage of Time (Warner Bros., 2001) and Spirit of the Moment Live (Warner Bros., 1995), but he's never recorded one with such clarity of purpose as the self-produced Compass. In keeping with the dual meaning of the ...
Miles Davis: Kind of Blue
by Doug Collette
Even as the period photos of Miles Davis and co., taken in the studio and on the stage around the time of Kind of Blue (Columbia, 1959), place the music of this Legacy Edition squarely in its time, two excellent sets of liner notes alternately expound upon and contemplate the ongoing influence of this hallmark album, ...
The Youngbloods: Elephant Mountain
by Doug Collette
The Youngbloods were more than one hit wonders from the '60s. In fact, the band experienced its commercial breakthrough when the flower power anthem “Get Together" became a hit some two years after originally released. Which was, ultimately, an unfortunate coincidence as the belated emergence of the former tune distracted focus from “Darkness, Darkness" the ever-so-haunting ...
Phish: Live Phish Downloads: Madison Square Garden 12/30/1997
by Doug Collette
Releasing the three-CD Live Phish Downloads: Madison Square Garden 12/30/1997 in the wake of the mammoth At the Roxy (Jemp, 2008) makes a certain amount of sense. It is neither a groundbreaking performance nor a significant event within the band's oeuvre, such as its 1996 The Clifford Ball festival. The video counterpart of Madison Square Garden ...

Michael Falzarano: We Are All One
by Doug Collette
Redoubtable sideman to Bay Area notables including Hot Tuna and The New Riders of the Purple Sage, guitarist Michael Falzarano offers inspiration throughout his third CD that consolidates the talents that have proven so reliable over the years. It's a little surprise Falzarano's aided and abetted here by a star-studded cast of musicians, 'The Extended Family' ...
Boris Garcia: Once More Into the Bliss
by Doug Collette
Don't jump to conclusions about Boris Garcia based on the cryptic name or even (especially) the mandala-adorned cover art of Once More into the Bliss. You may be confounded, at first, and then, more likely than not, delighted. Boris Garcia's music is a predominantly acoustic mix of instruments that gains distinction from arrangements that ...
Man: Back Into The Future Again
by Doug Collette
A jam band more than two decades before the term was coined, Man originally took inspiration from the San Francisco groups of the 1960s who, like post-1990s jam bands, favor an open-ended, eclectic approach to songwriting and playing. Though the Welsh-born band were still active in 2008, after near constant personnel shifts and a hiatus or ...

by Doug Collette
Grateful Dead Rocking The Cradle - Egypt 1978 Grateful Dead/Rhino 2008 If there was ever a Grateful Dead adventure that deserved assiduous archiving, it has to be their 1978 journey to Egypt, when they gave three concerts at the foot of the Great Pyramid. Rocking the Cradle - Egypt 1978, ...
