Manu Codjia: Covers
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Is Steamin' with the Miles Davis Quintet (Prestige, 1956) a “covers" album? Not a single Davis-penned original on the record. But, of course, performing other composers' material is the jazz musician's stock in trade. No, the notion of “covers" is more recent, and its use in jazz today evokes the ironic rock-weaned hipster, exemplified by The ...

Robert Plant: Band of Joy
by C. Michael Bailey
Classic rock music from the mid-1960s to the mid-'70s produced three great voices: Rod Stewart, Roger Daltrey, and Robert Plant. Of these, the most incendiary was Plant.

by Bruce Lindsay
From the opening bass, snare drum and accordion of “Ki Eshmera," the Boston-based Klezwoods deliver a beautifully structured and performed collection of traditional tunes on its debut, Oy Yeah!.

Jeff Beck: Emotion & Commotion
by John Kelman
Of the three artists who emerged as “guitar gods" on the British rock scene of the 1960s--all three coming up through the same group, The Yardbirds--Jeff Beck is, more than perennial favorites Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page, the one who has taken the most risks throughout his career. They don't always work, either; on the other ...

The Rolling Stones Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! The Rolling Stones In Concert (40th Anniversary Deluxe Box Set) Abkco Records 2009 What is the measure of a great live music recording?
