These 31 digitally remastered tracks across two CDs span Franks’ three-decade career, with something from every one of his Warner Bros. releases plus his Windham Hill album Barefoot on the Beach, performances with the Australian sextet Crossfire and the Yellowjackets, and studio tracks with Joe Sample and Brenda Russell. Early cuts show Franks as ...
Jaco Pastorius: Punk Jazz: The Jaco Pastorius Anthology
by Chris M. Slawecki
This comprehensive 28-track, 2-CD anthology recounts in detail the genuine bass-playing revolution detonated by the in your face approach and sound advanced by Jaco Pastorius. Like a good Anthology, this really covers just about everything. That means his five years as a third lead voice in Weather Report, alongside Wayne Shorter and Joe Zawinul, with the ...
Jaco Pastorius: Punk Jazz: The Jaco Pastorius Anthology
by Mark Corroto
Flames that burn brightly also burn for the shortest time. The genius of so many jazz innovators from Charlie Parker to Thomas Chapin were silenced at too young an age. The same is true for legendary bassist Jaco Pastorius. In his short 36 years, he revolutionized the role of the electric bass in jazz. And then ...
Miles Davis: The Last Word - The Warner Bros. Years
by Jim Santella
Change isn't always welcome. As long as things are going okay, folks would just as soon leave things the way they are. But what's okay for one person or group may not be the same for others. So, when Miles Davis hit the 1970s and 1980s with a fusion of hip, electronic, synthesized and mainstream sounds ...
Billy Cobham: Rudiments: The Billy Cobham Anthology
by Todd S. Jenkins
The Good Book of fusion drumming, culled from a half-dozen years in the life of Billy Cobham. After serving in drum corps, the High School of Music and Arts, and the Army band, as well as gigging and recording with Kenny Burrell, George Benson and Junior Mance, Panamanian native Cobham was finally recommended by Jack DeJohnette ...

Loud and Proud. Rudiments: the Billy Cobham Anthology is a representative collection of songs associated with drummer-composer-bandleader-producer Billy Cobham assembled from the highlights of eight Atlantic releases between 1973 and 1978. This was a particularly fruitful time for Cobham that saw the percussionist recording with the likes of the late Tommy Bolin, Jan Hammer, George Duke, ...
Little Feat: Hotcakes and Outtakes-- 30 Years of Little Feat
by C. Michael Bailey
The Synthetic Method of Little Feat made it the savior of American Music in the 1970s. Little Feat is America’s enigmatic icon. Their music immediately accessible and no one but the faithful managed to accept it. “Dixie Chicken”, a sardonic tome by genius Lowell George, was fully received by the redneck intelligentsia of as gospel, instead ...
John Coltrane: Coltrane Sound
by AAJ Staff
In all, it was a busy week. Near the end of 1960, John Coltrane owed Atlantic a bunch of albums, due at the close of the year. He did what his old boss had four years earlier: record a whole mass of material all at once. It was the start of Elvin’s stay and the end ...
Various: Hollywood Swing & Jazz
by Mark Corroto
In today’s movie soundtrack market, the word is “hype.” Hype, hype, and hype. This week’s flavor, usually a pubescent boy act, is packaged as the soundtrack to the latest teen slasher film. Before the movie comes to theatres, MTV has the video, Burger King the action doll, and junior wants a T-shirt. I’m sorry but I’m ...
Electromagnets: Electromagnets
by John W. Patterson
This release is among my top ten fav discoveries in 1999. Back in 1975, a little-known, Texas fusion band released an album that has become the stuff of legend and one for the collectors’ bins. And 23 years later Rhino unearths it all for us on CD. Wonderful! This is precisely what ‘70's jazz rock fusion ...
