Pat Metheny & Anna Maria Jopek: Upojenie
by John Kelman
A cult favorite amongst Pat Metheny fans, Upojenie--originally released by “Anna Maria Jopek & Friends with Pat Metheny" in the singer's native country of Poland by Warner Music in 2002--has been long overdue for greater international availability. The Nonesuch edition hasn't been remastered (it doesn't need it), but will still be of interest to Metheny fans ...
Pat Metheny w/ Dave Holland and Roy Haynes: Question and Answer
by Chris May
Question and Answer is the second in a glittering, altogether too infrequent series of albums guitarist Pat Metheny has recorded in acoustic trio settings, usually on the hoof and with little post-production, which act as a counterweight to his more elaborate work with larger line-ups. Recorded in 1989 and originally released on Geffen, it's been immaculately ...
Pat Metheny & Anna Maria Jopek: Upojenie
by Chris May
An oddity this one, even within the variegated discography of Pat Metheny. It features the guitarist alongside Polish singer Anna Maria Jopek and a group of mostly Polish musicians, recorded in Warsaw during 2002. Half the set features lyricised and re-titled versions of Metheny compositions, sung in Polish; the other half are originals composed in the ...
Pat Metheny w/ Dave Holland & Roy Haynes: Question and Answer
by John Kelman
As Nonesuch's remaster/reissue program of guitarist Pat Metheny's Geffen-era discography draws to a close, one of the best discs from that period, Question and Answer, finally sounds the way it should, revealing itself to be deserving of even greater accolades than it received when first released in 1990. Better known for his flagship Pat ...
Philip Glass: Glass Box - A Nonesuch Retrospective
by John Kelman
Philip GlassGlass Box - A Nonesuch RetrospectiveNonesuch Records2008 Recent studies have proven that music is one of the few disciplines to utilize the entire brain--the left "analytical" side and the right "creative" side. There's no denying the creative aspect of music making, but equally there's a ...
Bill Frisell: History, Mystery
by Matthew Miller
For an artist rooted in sound and atmosphere, change occurs, more often than not, through Re-contextualization. Miles Davis embodied this over a career of brilliant juxtapositions and, in this way, Bill Frisell is his closest contemporary. The 58 year-old guitarist chooses collaborators carefully, employing them as foils to revolve around the swirling gravitation of his haunting, ...
Randy Newman: Harps and Angels
by John Kelman
It's been nine years since Bad Love (Dreamworks SKG, 1999), Randy Newman's last album of original material. In the interim the singer/songwriter moved to Nonesuch for Songbook Vol. 1 (2003), where he revisited some of his favorite songs. As good as it was, it's nice to know that, with Harps and Angels, his pen is as ...
Bill Frisell: History, Mystery
by John Kelman
While guitarist Bill Frisell has continued to shape his uniquely skewed confluence of musical styles, it's been too long since he weighed in heavily on the compositional side. In recent years, the writing has most often served the playing, largely providing a context around which the guitarist and various-sized groups can explore, expand and mine. That's ...
Brad Mehldau Trio: Live
by Andrew Velez
Returning to New York's Village Vanguard for another live recording, pianist Brad Mehldau's trio has Larry Grenadier (bass) returning and Jeff Ballard (drums) taking over for Jorge Rossy. Music seems to just pour out of Mehldau, as is buoyantly evident here. And often, as with Chico Buarque's “O Que Sera" or Chris Cornell's “Black Hole Sun," ...
