Kenny Burrell: Mr. Good Notes

Read "Kenny Burrell: Mr. Good Notes" reviewed by Russ Musto

by Russ Musto

“I'm just trying to play the good notes," says Kenny Burrell, lighthearted laughter accompanying his response to the question of how he would characterize his style of guitar playing. The reply betrayed the genial humility that has long distinguished him as one of the music's truly gracious gentlemen. Burrell has been playing the “good notes" for ...

Hubert Laws: Moondance

Read "Moondance" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Returning to the soul jazz of his classic CTI recordings, flautist Hubert Laws delivers Moondance , an album of contemporary grooves and smooth sounds that, while a step above most smooth jazz recordings, is for the most part a little too safe, a little too conservative for a capable artist who has always seemed to represent ...

Hubert Laws: Wild Flowers

Read "Wild Flowers" reviewed by Craig Jolley

by Craig Jolley

Wild Flower is the best flute record I know of. Hubert Laws plays flawlessly and sensitively as usual, but the record really belongs to John Murtaugh. Murtaugh came up as a Los Angeles tenorist in the 1950's but made his reputation as a writer. The program was thoughtfully considered. Each composition has its own identity and ...

George Benson: I Got A Woman And Some Blues

Read "I Got A Woman And Some Blues" reviewed by Douglas Payne

by Douglas Payne

This odd hodgepodge of funk jazz and R&B / pop was recorded by guitarist / vocalist George Benson for A&M / CTI Records around 1970. It first appeared on vinyl in 1984--long after most anyone cared about Benson's music--and has finally just made it onto CD. There's no personnel listed, but it's worth betting that Idris ...
