Medeski, Martin & Wood: End of the World Party (Just in Case)
by Doug Collette
This new Medeski Martin and Wood release is heady stuff, certainly on par with the recordings that made the group something of an underground jazz legend in the early- to mid-nineties-- Shack-man and Friday Afternoon in the Universe. But while End of the World Party (Just in Case) reminds you of those albums, and even more ...
The Marshall Tucker Band: Beyond the Horizon
by Doug Collette
The Marshall Tucker Band Beyond the Horizon Shout!Factory 2004 The Marshall Tucker Band had a wider palette of musical influences than any other Southern rockers. The eternally high-spirited Wet Willie (of “Keep On Smilin'" fame) mixed r&b, gospel and pop into their rock and roll stew. Even the granddaddies of ...
Chris Robinson: This Magnificent Distance
by Doug Collette
Much like the young lion who ingratiates himself with the jazz cognoscenti, Chris Robinson, with his New Earth Mud comrades, is making a place for himself on the jam band scene by appearing at festivals such as Bonnaroo and opening shows for the Allman Brothers. If this Southern expatriate's first solo album wasn't enough to convince ...
Grateful Dead: From the Archives and From the Road
by Doug Collette
“There is nothing like a Grateful Dead concert." Originally spoken as a wondrous compliment to the seminal San Francisco band and its followers, the phrase eventually came to have multiple meanings as the group, its fanbase and its music changed. Judging from The Dead's recent two-night stand at the outside Boston, as well as two archive ...
The Allman Brothers Band: Gems From The Vaults
by Doug Collette
The five-man lineup of The Allman Brothers Band that remained in the wake of founder member/guitarist Duane Allman's death is the missing link in the history of the band. In part, that's because their studio recordings were initially overshadowed on Eat a Peach --despite the fact two of its three initial cuts are currently staples of ...
July 2004
by Doug Collette
Illuminations McCoy Tyner Telarc Nowhere near MOR, this is nevertheless one of the great pianist's more accessible works. Arranged to include Terence Blanchard on trumpet and Gary Bartz on saxophone, the horns introduce and embellish melodies to be echoed by Tyner (and crisply punctuated by Lewis Nash on drums and young lion ...
Charlie Hunter: Right Now Live
by Doug Collette
Something of a companion piece released same day as his new trio audio outing Friends Seen & Unseen , this DVD was recorded in winter of 2002 by 1k Studios when idiosyncratic guitarist Charlie Hunter was still working with his Quintet that recorded last year's Right Now Move. Its semi-animated graphics format conveys more than a ...
Wilco: a ghost is born
by Doug Collette
It's a bit of a stretch, perhaps, to consider Wilco a jazz band. But if you consider the stylistics leaps Jeff Tweedy & Co. have made since their earliest albums ( Being There , Summerteeth ) and the collective creative process that gave birth to Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and now, this new album, perhaps the label ...
The Charlie Hunter Trio: Friends Seen and Unseen
by Doug Collette
Charlie Hunter is groove incarnate. Whether in his own groups, as a member of Garage a Trois, in duet with Bobby Previte, or reuniting with TJ Kirk (all this activity in the past year), this master of the eight-string guitar radiates an infectious joy that permeates his own playing as well as the musicianship of those ...
The Derek Trucks Band: Live At The Georgia Theatre
by Doug Collette
The development of the Derek Trucks Band has followed a progression that appears to be the perfect marketing plan. But there’s nothing any more contrived about the sequence of events than there is simply the music itself. The release of the band's diverse major label debut, Joyful Noise , segued smoothly to the next year’s almost-all ...
