Shangri-La -- CD

Mark Knopfler

2004 Reprise Records

Amazon.com

Mark Knopfler isn't afraid to drop names. The heavyweight Cassius Clay laid low, the man who made burgers and fries into big business, the kings of rock & roll and skiffle are among the motley assortment who pass through Knopfler's fourth solo album. Recorded in Malibu with a tight crew of steadfast Knopfler sidemen, Shangri-La (the title comes from the studio where the entire set was recorded) chronicles the foibles of the acclaimed and the adrift, all delivered with the nonchalant grace that has marked Knopfler's music since Dire Straits emerged in the late '70s. Seven of album's 14 originals clock in at between five and seven minutes. That's Knopfler in a nutshell--don't rush things, but don't loose the thread, either. As a songwriter, Knopfler has a storyteller's eye for minutiae, which he delivers with practiced nuance. He overreaches here and there ("Song for Sonny Liston" fails to capture the pathos of the menacing fighter), but also pulls off a few career highlights (the understated crime-drama opener "5.15 a.m."). --Steve Stolder

Joyful Noise -- CD

The Derek Trucks Band

2002 Columbia Records

Amazon.com

The third album from guitar phenom Derek Trucks resounds with joyful noise indeed, and amazingly, it seems as though Trucks and his band run through (at least) 10 distinct genres across these 10 songs. Trucks may venture all over the musical map--blues, soul, jazz, Eastern music, to name a few stops--but he does so with a confidence and assertiveness usually found in much older musicians. Then again, he is the nephew of Butch Trucks (a fellow member of the Allman Brothers Band, Trucks's moonlighting gig) and is married to fellow guitar wiz Susan Tedeschi (who guests on this album), so it's not surprising that he seems experienced beyond his years. Joyful Noise features a host of guest artists--including Qawwali singer Rahat Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and soul legend Solomon Burke--but despite the considerable variety here, the album maintains a unified, if high-flying and eclectic, vision. Even at such a young age, Trucks already plays with skill, invention, and heart. --Genevieve Williams

1. "Joyful Noise" (J. Colon/Y. Scott/D. Trucks/K. Burbridge/T. Smallie) 5:47
2. "So Close, So Far Away" (Scott/Trucks/Burbridge/Smallie) 4:38
3. "Home in Your Heart" (feat. Solomon Burke) (O. Blackwell/W. Scott) 3:59
4. "Maki Madni" (feat. Rahat Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan) (Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan) 8:11
5. "Kam-Ma-Lay" (feat. Rubén Blades) (R. Blades/Colon/Scott/Trucks/Burbridge/Smallie) 7:08
6. "Like Anyone Else" (feat. Solomon Burke) (Burbridge) 6:30
7. "Every Good Boy" (Burbridge) 4:23
8. "Baby, You're Right" (feat. Susan Tedeschi) (J. Brown, J. Tex) 4:14
9. "Lookout 31" (Burbridge) 4:21
10. "Frisell" (Colon/Scott/Trucks/Burbridge/Smallie) 6:53

Hey Heeman, as I've mentioned before, I think that is my favorite album of Mark's. But he has so many good ones, it is hard to single out one, as my favorite.

I really, really enjoy the whole album! Just so you know, "Boom, Like That" is about "McDonald's Restaurant" and how they exploded on the scene, you know.... "BOOM, like that"! :handgestures-thumbup:

Also, since you didn't ask. LOL My Dad was treated badly at the Hospital over this past weekend and his doctor was out of town. When his doctor got back Monday morning and heard what had transpired over the weekend, he revoked the doctors privileges at that hospital, who filled in for him and fired one nurse for total incompetency. He called me 2 times and apologized a hundred times and even talked about humanity and God, which I don't hear to many doctors talk about. My father was moved to a private room and is now being waited on by his own private nurse. He is now doing very well!

My Dad's Doctor turned out to be a "Stand Up Guy" (and the Head of the Orthopedics Department), like the one mentioned in Track 12, which will always have a whole new meaning, to me.

Let us know how you like it.

Back In The High Life -- CD

Steve Winwood

1986 Island Records

One of the most impressive albums of the 1980s,
August 23, 2003
By Daniel Jolley "darkgenius"
This review is from: Back in the High Life (Audio CD)

Steve Winwood was indeed enjoying the high life after the release of this album in 1986. Back in the High Life is one of the best albums of that musically rich decade, providing Winwood with four huge hit singles. Winwood almost became too popular as a result of these songs; the radio played Higher Love, The Finer Things, Freedom Overspill, and Back in the High Life Again so often that even I eventually began to grow tired of them. As a result, I can say that I enjoy this album even more today than I did at the time of its initial release. Winwood's distinctive, laid-back music never goes out of style, and it soothes the soul while touching the heart with some quite emotional, really meaningful lyrics. I'm afraid I can't really describe the music; all I can say is that it combines drums, guitars, and horns in a way that is all its own.

While the album is remembered primarily for commercial successes such as Higher Love (featuring memorable backup vocals by Chaka Kahn) and Back in the High Life Again (featuring harmony vocals by James Taylor), it features eight songs of incredible quality. I might note that each track exceeds five minutes in length, so this album is not as short as it may appear. Take It As It Comes had real hit potential in my opinion. Wake Me Up on Judgment Day doesn't seem that memorable yet plays itself over and over in your mind after you hear it. Split Decision features some great guitar riffs, proving that Winwood can get down and rock a little when he wants to. The final track, My Love's Leavin', may well be the best song on the album, communicating both loss and hope in a way few artists can equal. You would be hard pressed to find a more impressive album from top to bottom than Steve Winwood's Back in the High Life.

All songs written by Steve Winwood and Will Jennings except where noted

"Higher Love" – 5:45
"Take It as It Comes" – 5:20
"Freedom Overspill" – 5:33 (Winwood, George Fleming, James Hooker)
"Back in the High Life Again " – 5:33
"The Finer Things" – 5:47
"Wake Me Up on Judgment Day" – 5:48
"Split Decision" – 5:58 (Winwood, Joe Walsh)
"My Love's Leavin'" – 5:19 (Winwood, Viv Stanshall)

Accentuate The Positive -- CD

Al Jarreau

2004 Verve Records

Amazon.com

Al Jarreau's style bridges Jon Hendricks's vocalese and Bobby McFerrin's incredible flights of fancy. This CD, with Diana Krall's rhythm section--guitarist Anthony Wilson, drummer Peter Erskine, and bassist Christian McBride--should please fans of albums like Jarreau's phenomenal 1977 live LP, Look to the Rainbow. Duke Ellington's "I'm Beginning to See the Light" is illuminated by Larry Goldings's down-home Hammond organ, while Lionel Hampton's "Midnight Sun" bops with hip-hop-friendly rim shots. Jarreau's tenor tones curve with saxophonic dexterity and pulse with percussive precision, especially on Dizzy Gillespie's "Groovin' High," where he slyly drops in a few words from the old show tune, "Whispering." --Eugene Holley, Jr.

"Cold Duck" (Harris, Jarreau)
"The Nearness of You" (Carmichael, Washington)
"I'm Beginning to See the Light" (Ellington, George, Hodges, James)
"My Foolish Heart" (Washington, Young)
"Midnight Sun" (Hampton, Burke & Mercer)
"Accentuate the Positive" (Arlen, Mercer)
"Betty Bebop's Song" (Jarreau, Ravel)
"Waltz for Debby" (Evans, Lees)
"Groovin' High" (Gillespie, Jarreau)
"Lotus" (Grolnick, Jarreau)
"Scootcha Booty" (Ferrante, Jarreau)

Taking A Chance On Love -- CD

Jane Monheit

2004 Sony Classical

"How Could I Ever Close The Door And Be The Same As I Was Before? . . . No, I Can't Anymore, It's Too Late Now", May 15, 2005
By Rebecca*rhapsodyinblue* (CA USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Taking a Chance on Love (Audio CD)

Jane Monheit, who is greatly influenced by the First Lady of Jazz, Ella Fitzgerald, glows in this recording produced by two of the renowned names in the music and recording industry, Peter Asher (famed Peter & Gordon) and Al Schmitt. Ms. Monheit could well be among the newest divas in the jazz scene today. Her voice has a classic touch and her interpretations of these gorgeous and timeless standards are so remarkable.

My personal favorite tracks are the following:

"TOO LATE NOW," an Alan Jay Lerner/Burton Lane composition. It's worth not only a listen but also multiple listens. The music and words, the soprano saxophone by Joel Frahm, piano and arrangement by Michael Kanan, drums by Rick Montalbano, bass by Orlando Le Fleming and Jane Monheit's rendition make this song a real winner.

"Too late now to forget your smile
Too late now to forget your voice
Too late now to imagine myself away from you
All the things we've done together
I relive when we're apart
All the tender fun together stays on in my heart
How could I ever close the door
and be the same as I was before?
Darling, no, no I can't anymore
It's too late now."

"EMBRACEABLE YOU," one of the most popular compositions of George & Ira Gershwin. This track is just fabulous and charming, accompanied only by the terrific guitar playing of Romero Lubambo. Another track that deserves endless listens!

"IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT," a Cole Porter classic rendered beautifully with a bossa nova touch, orchestra conducted by Jorge Calandrelli.

"DO I LOVE YOU?" another Cole Porter gem, arranged and conducted by one of the finest and talented musicians of all-time, Alan Broadbent.

"TAKING A CHANCE ON LOVE," a Vernon Duke/John Latouche/Ted Fetter composition. A super upbeat and jazzy interpretation arranged by Michael Kanan, whose piano playing is so sublime!

"LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME," a Walter Donaldson/Gus Kahn composition. Nice arrangement by Christian McBride.

"I WON'T DANCE," a duet with Michael Bublé, a new singing sensation himself who greatly contributed in the success of this project. This is one of the best tracks and my special favorite from a great songwriting team of Jerome Kern & Dorothy Fields.

"OVER THE RAINBOW," a bonus track. Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg composed this classic made popular by Judy Garland. This wonderful track was backed by an orchestra arranged and conducted by Ed Shearmur. To me, it is by far the most beautiful rendition I have ever heard. This is truly a testament of Ms. Monheit's impressive vocal prowess.

A splendid CD. I graciously recommend it for your listening pleasure!

1. "Honeysuckle Rose" Andy Razaf, Thomas 'Fats' Waller Thousands Cheer (1943) 3:39
2. "In the Still of the Night" Cole Porter Rosalie (1928) 5:06
3. "Taking a Chance on Love" Vernon Duke, John Latouche, Ted Fetter Cabin in the Sky (1940) 3:19

5. "I Won't Dance" (duet with Michael Bublé) Jerome Kern, Otto Harbach, Oscar Hammerstein II, Jimmy McHugh, Dorothy Fields Three Sisters (1934) /

Shangri-La -- CD

Mark Knopfler

2004 Reprise Records

Amazon.com

Mark Knopfler isn't afraid to drop names. The heavyweight Cassius Clay laid low, the man who made burgers and fries into big business, the kings of rock & roll and skiffle are among the motley assortment who pass through Knopfler's fourth solo album. Recorded in Malibu with a tight crew of steadfast Knopfler sidemen, Shangri-La (the title comes from the studio where the entire set was recorded) chronicles the foibles of the acclaimed and the adrift, all delivered with the nonchalant grace that has marked Knopfler's music since Dire Straits emerged in the late '70s. Seven of album's 14 originals clock in at between five and seven minutes. That's Knopfler in a nutshell--don't rush things, but don't loose the thread, either. As a songwriter, Knopfler has a storyteller's eye for minutiae, which he delivers with practiced nuance. He overreaches here and there ("Song for Sonny Liston" fails to capture the pathos of the menacing fighter), but also pulls off a few career highlights (the understated crime-drama opener "5.15 a.m."). --Steve Stolder

Blues -- 2 CD Set

Eric Clapton

1999 Polygram Records

Amazon.com

There's a telling subtext to this retrospective of Eric Clapton blues sides. Culled from recordings cut between 1970 (the Layla sessions) and 1980 (when Clapton cut his final Polydor album, Another Ticket), these sides finds EC exploring his beloved blues while in a fragile state of mind and body. After all, he was on heroin when he concocted Layla, and though he kicked that habit in the early '70s, he continued to test his tolerance for alcohol throughout the decade. When you think of the Clapton of the '60s, you think of the fire and ice of his playing with the Yardbirds, John Mayall, and Cream. When you think of his '70s playing, it's wearier and perhaps more reflective. (It was easy to mistake melancholic for mellow at the time.) The 35 selections included on these two discs find the temporarily deflated rock superstar leaning on the blues for support as he draws on likes of Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, and Little Walter for inspiration. Hardcore fans will appreciate previously unreleased versions of Bo Diddley's "Before You Accuse Me," a solo take on the traditional "Alberta," a 1974 cover of Willie Dixon's "Meet Me (Down at the Bottom), and a remixed live 1976 version of "Further on Up the Road" with Freddy King sitting in. Just about anyone, however, will be able to appreciate how this music reflects Clapton's strengths as a musician... and weaknesses as a man. --Steven Stolder

Listened to this twice today, couldn't stop. I mean I've had it for a while and listened to it many times, but it struck me particularly today, especially the song "Thistles & Weeds" - a seriously profound song, musically and dynamically. (I guess maybe it has words too... :laughing:)
 
Dennie said:

Been listening to this a lot more, probably almost three times through today. It's really growing on me a lot. Though really I think it has as much to do with Jerry Douglas's dobro playing (esp. tracks 3 & 6) than Sarah's voice, although she is indeed very good. And she's an excellent song writer, the music on here (almost all if it her own) is more and more interesting the more I listen to it.
