Live Alive -- CD

Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble

1986 Epic Records

Amazon.com

Most live blues recordings have a feeling of intimacy, as if the concerts took place in some out-of-the-way venue for an audience who not only know all the lyrics, but know the performers personally as well. Live Alive, in contrast, feels like a large-scale rock concert, an epic production full of grand gestures. But really, nothing suited Stevie Ray Vaughan's style better; everything, from the overall sound to the solos, feels big. The roar of the audience, especially for favorites like "Pride and Joy," "Cold Shot," and "Texas Flood," is huge but distant, an arena sound. Overall, Live Alive leaves the impression of a series of stellar moments caught on tape, with an intensity rarely captured in the recording studio. --Genevieve Williams

From Manhattan to Staten - The Album -- CD

Down To The Bone

2007 Narada Records

What was I thinking, July 13, 2011
By MrPhinn (Oklahoma City, OK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: From Manhattan to Staten (Reis) (Audio CD)

I bought this CD back in 1997 for one song only: Staten Island Groove. It's sat on my CD rack for 14yrs. Recently a friend of mine was playing some really funky stuff. He said it was Down to the Bone. I checked it out on iTunes and realized what I've been missing all these years. I downloaded every CD they have. Absolutely incredible stuff. And it makes me mad that I had this CD with all of this funky stuff on it just sitting there all these years.

But I'm all caught up. I'm a Down to the Bone junkie and I can't get enough. There is no such thing as sitting still when they guys are playing. To anyone who hasn't listened to this, please give it a chance. If you like old-funk but even funkier, then this is the group for you.

Dennie,

I like it! I have owned it for sometime now, listened to it a lot when I first bought it, and now listening again back and forth to work this week. If you like Meatloaf and the story telling style, I think you should enjoy it.

Kulanjan -- CD

Taj Mahal - Toumani Diabate

1999 Ryodisc Records
Ol' gruffvoice meets silverstrings November 28, 1999
By Mr I Graves
Format:Audio CD

Taj Mahal goes way back - I had a track on a sampler album, circa 1968, and he's always been a master of the rough-voiced blues. But gruff often covers tender and on this remarkable recording with Toumani Diabate he shows that tender side. The kora, Diabate's instrument, is a lot more lyrical and light than the guitar, and the virtuoso playing brings an uplift to songs from the south (States, that is) and Africa. The whole thing works, because the quality is there, and there is an understanding between the musicians that proves yet again that music is truly universal. This record sounds, I guarantee, like nothing else you've heard.

Smooth Africa -- CD

Various Artists

2000 Heads Up Records

Amazon.com

Over 100 years ago, Joe Brown & the Brothers Band, a minstrel group from New York, performed in Cape Town, South Africa. To this day, a festival honoring their performance is celebrated there, and ever since that day, South African culture has, more than any African nation, mirrored American culture. So it should come as no surprise that there's a vibrant smooth-jazz scene emerging in the re-building nation. This compilation's marquee talent comes in two of South Africa's most well-known contemporary jazz musicians, Hugh Masekela and Jonathan Butler. In addition, two of the most distinct soloists on the Heads Up roster, keyboardist Joe McBride and the magnificent steel drum player Andy Narell, join with a host of rising South African musicians to deliver a radio friendly American product that could've just as easily been recorded in Los Angeles as in South Africa. The CD's 12 tracks are heavy on the "smooth" and light on the "Africa." In fact, it's not until Jimmy Dludlu starts his haunting scat-guitar vocal on track three, "Point of View," before any true South African music is heard. The middle sections of the album make this record a keeper, including Narell's gem "Mpule," Butler's rendition of "Manenberg"-- written by the famed South African pianist Abdullah Ibrahim (formerly Dollar Brand)--and "Tazara Express." The latter tune features trumpeter Ian Smith, who surprisingly comes off sounding better on brass than Masekela. But Masakela--not Smith--beckons smooth-jazz lovers to go back and discover his more authentic South African jazz recordings. --Mark Ruffin

Tarrapin Station -- CD

Grateful Dead

1977/1990 Arista Records

Conceptually Brilliant December 6, 2004
By J. Birchell
Format:Audio CD

Asa a trained musician myself, I find Terrapin Station one of teh Grateful Dead's most intriguing albums. The opening track, Estimated Prophet, employing as it does a reggae-styled compound 7/4 meter, is miraculously rhythmic. Generally, 7/4 music does not have the capacity to sound so dance-able. The double-meaning of this track's title reflects the witty quality of its lyrics. The closing track, the six-song suite "Terrapin Station" is also brilliant. The poetic lyrics by Robert Hunter combine some elements of great litereary storytelling ("Lady With a Fan") with more poetic, image-creating diction ("Terrapin Station"). The music of the opening song, "Lady With a Fan" by Jerry Garcia, demonstrates some of the more extreme syncopations possible within a 4/4 framework. The music of "Terrapin" is quite brilliant, combining as it does the pulsating, simple 4/4 melody, with the brief transitions (9/4) all of which are intriguingly orchestrated. "Terrapin Flyer" is also a rhythmic experiment, vascillating between the high-flying music in 3/4 and the much heavier, deeper 7/4 music. Garcia's guitar solo in this song is jaw-dropping, and the orchestration continues to be of interest. Highly recommended, unless you're one of those deadheads who hates the refined "studio" quality of this album.

Daybreak -- CD

Bela Fleck

1987 Rounder Records

Early & Obscure , but First Class Fleck, August 28, 2006
By jimnypivo "Jim Hisson" (west of Chicago, USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Daybreaker (Audio CD)

Whenever I press a Bela Fleck disc into a friend's hand, I and ask them to listen to it,because Fleck is a virtuoso, a master of his instrument. Over the years, Bela Fleck continued to incorporate various styles into his recordings. 1988's `Daybreak' gives you a taste of how well-versed he is in playing other musical genres.

Bela stays faithful to his NewGrass style on `Texas Barbeque', `Twilight`, `Reading in the Dark', `Applebutter', `Dawg's Due' (a David Grisman tune); `Crossfire', and `Punchdrunk'.

There are jazz tunes: Spain'-- a few bars into it you'll recognize this Chic Corea favorite; and a honky-tonk version of Fats Waller's `How Can You Face Me Now' (with vocal).

This would not be a Bela Fleck disc few without a traditional bluegrass melody. This disc has several: `Bill Cheatham' featuring Bill Keith and Bela in a banjo duet; a joyful, bouncy version of `Silverbell` and a NewGrass-y version of `Fiddler's Dream'.

He also throws in a few Celtic songs---- 'Growling Old Man and the Grumbling Old Woman' and 'Christina's Jig/Plain Brown Jug'

For fans of his later `jazzgrass' sound with the Flecktones, `Daybreak', `Flexibility', `Old Hickory Waltz' and `The Natural Bridge Suite' (reminiscent of Stephane Grappelli/Django Rheinhart) won't disappoint.

If you'd like to hear more examples of Fleck's virtuosity, catch his Grammy-winning recording of classical music, 'Perpetual Motion'.

I've waited a long time for this album to be available on SACD. The wait was definitely worth it. This is reference quality audio that beats any vinyl in my collection.
I dare you to listen to Money for Nothing and not get chills. The surround mix is fantastic,using all speakers to great effect.
My advice, rush out and buy this one. It may be the best SACD out there.

These Are Soulful Days -- CD

Benny Green - Russell Malone - Christian McBride

1999 Blue Note Records

Amazon.com

Always an effusive pianist with a relentlessly melodic approach, Benny Green celebrates Blue Note's 60th Anniversary by culling eight tunes from the label's back catalog and cutting loose with a drummerless trio that includes former cohorts Russell Malone on guitar and bassist Christian McBride. The harmonic rapport of Green and Malone is immediately apparent in their exacting unison lines to open Horace Silver's "Virgo," which also features McBride's resonant bow work. No longer a wunderkind, the 36-year-old Green solos with youthful intensity (check the dynamic force of "Bellarosa") but also showcases his ensemble maturity by shouldering some of the rhythmic duty and giving Malone ample space to explore a more kinetic side of his muse. Malone's chords, Green's left hand, and McBride's yeoman time-keeping provide plenty of percussive context. Saving the best for last, the trio returns to Silver for a bluesy "Come On Home" that inspires Malone into perhaps the most commanding uptempo passages of his career thus far. --Britt Robson

Track listing:
1. Virgo 4:19
2. Bellarosa 5:41
3. Summer Nights 5:00
4. Punjab 5:40

Yellow Moon -- CD

Neville Brothers

1989 A&M Records

Amazon.com essential recording

The Neville Brothers are a New Orleans institution. Their voices glide freely and harmonize into a rich texture. For Yellow Moon, they enlisted the help of producer Daniel Lanois to meld their voices and rhythms with his swampy dreamscapes. The percussion is subtle, the guitars melt into the background, and the voices puncture the placid night sky, as if providing the soundtrack to an old western. Two protest-era Dylan songs ("With God on Our Side" and "The Ballad of Hollis Brown") are recast as modern anthems for spiritual reconciliation. The Sam Cooke classic "A Change is Gonna Come" remains an envied promise, while the original material (the title track; "Sister Rosa," about Rosa Parks) is among their finest. Not a return to form, but rather a welcome break from tradition. --Rob O'Connor

"My Blood" (Darryl Johnson, Cyril Neville, Willie Green, Charles Moore) – 4:11

Gypsy Swing -- CD

Jimmy Rosenberg

2000 Refined Records

One of swing's great innovators of the 1930s and 1940s, the Belgian-born acoustic guitarist Django Reinhardt pioneered the style that came to be called European gypsy jazz -- and along the way had a major ally in Parisian violinist Stephane Grappelli. Reinhardt died in France in 1953, but his influence remained long after his death. Anyone who doubts that Reinhardt's music has withstood the test of time need only listen to Gypsy Swing, a collection of Reinhardt-minded gypsy jazz that was recorded in Europe from 1994-1999 (more than 40 years after the guitarist's demise). The improvisers on this CD come from different parts of Europe: While guitarist Jimmy Rosenberg (a member of the group Sinti) grew up in the Netherlands and the Hot Club de Norvège is a Norwegian group, the Robin Nolan Trio was formed in London before relocating to Amsterdam. Reinhardt's compositions don't dominate the CD -- in fact, only about one-fourth of Gypsy Swing is devoted to performances of songs that he wrote. Nonetheless, Reinhardt's influence is present throughout this enjoyable, if derivative, collection. ~ Alex Henderson

Just A Lucky So and So -- Remastered CD

Charles Brown

1994 Bullseye Blues/Rounder Records

Digitally remastered by Joe Brescio (Master Cutting Room, New York, New York).magine a Nat "King" Cole who spent a little more time on the blues and never quit playing the piano and you'd be moving into Charles Brown's territory. Brown was big news in the late 1940s and early 50s but labored in relative obscurity until his rediscovery by blues and jazz audiences in the 1990s. Fortunately, he got to make a handful of well-produced records before his death in 1999. Brown cooks with his small combo on arranger Wardell Quezergue's "Crescent City Horns" and "New Orleans Strings" and producer Ron Levy, himself a talented pianist, wisely lets Brown's playing come through loud and clear. The material favors the kind of blues and blues ballads that are the singer/pianist trademark (for example, the excellent piano/vocal solo ballad "One Never Knows"). Like Cole, Brown's gifted with a warm, articulate, mahogany-toned voice and an easygoing delivery capable of conveying both passion and relaxation. The reprise of his hit "Driftin' Blues" includes fine moments from guitarist Danny Caron and tenor soloist Clifford Solomon, both of whom share Brown's ability to walk the fine line between uptown and downtown.

Bat Out Of Hell -- 24k Gold 20-bit SBM CD

Meatloaf

1977/1994 Epic Legacy/Sony Mastersound

Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf's first album together, May 13, 2000
By Robert Storm (Finland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bat Out of Hell (Audio CD)

Before Bat Out of Hell, singer Meat Loaf had already recorded a quite nice soul album called Stoney and Meatloaf for Motown Records. Songwriter Jim Steinman had composed several musicals. He had worked with Meat Loaf on the musical More than You Deserve, and Meat had recorded a single of its title track. However Bat Out of Hell was the first full-length album they made together. It's a true classic album featuring Steinman's amazing songwriting, Loaf's voice at its best, Todd Rundgren's production and such talented instrumentalists as Rundgren, Roy Bittan and Edgar Winter.

The title track is a progressive rock song with many different parts, a majestic yet hilarious story about motorcycle crash and death. You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth is simply a perfect piece of pop. Heaven Can Wait is one of the most beautiful melodies ever written. The arrangement (piano, strings and french horn) is lovely. The song is about someone who already was a cynical grownup but found his childlike innocence again. Meat's voice sounds very young and innocent on this song, maybe better than on any other song. All Revved Up With No Place to Go is the most basic rock song on the album, very energetic. Two Out of Three Ain't Bad is a country ballad made with tongue in cheek. Many people consider Paradise by the Dashboard Lights a major masterpiece. I think it's a bit overrated but a lot of fun anyway. The lyrics are funny but at the same time quite tragical. After that song the mood changes completely. For Crying Out Loud is a very serious song about saving someone's life and soul. It's sort of religious, sort of a love song. It's one of the most amazing songs Jim Steinman or anybody else has ever written.

This review is from: All Day Music (Audio CD)

Eric Burton had no idea what would happen when he left war. What happened was that War became The band of the early 70's. All day music was playing in the park all summer that year and the song perfectly describes War. Tight harmonies, great musicians, and lyrics that paint beautiful pictures. Ya had to be there, like I was. However, their music still stands the test of time. That's What Love Will Do, There Must Be A Reason, and Slippin' Into Darkness could of each been singles, as they are all great jams.

A fabulous group with a distinctive fusion of soul, rock, blues, funk and jazz. Couldn't ask for anymore from any group at anytime.

All tracks composed by War (Papa Dee Allen, Harold Brown, B.B. Dickerson, Lonnie Jordan, Charles Miller, Lee Oskar, Howard E. Scott), except where indicated.

Long Hard Ride -- CD

The Marshall Tucker Band

1976 AJK Music

More country than the earlier albums and still great, February 18, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Long Hard Ride (Audio CD)

"Long Hard Ride" is one of the underappreciated MTB albums, coming between "Searchin' For A Rainbow" (with it's Top 40 hit "Fire On The Mountain") and the platinum "Carolina Dreams" (with the band's biggest hit "Heard It In A Love Song"). The album gets off to a rousing start with "Long Hard Ride." With it's bullwhip, fiddle and memorable guitar lead it's a killer opening salvo. Toy Caldwell was simply one of the most distinctive, creative, and powerful guitarists ever. His work on the first 10 MTB albums withstands the test of time. My favorite track on the album has to be "Am I The Kind Of Man." A downtempo number, lyrically and musically it touches your heart and soul.

If you're looking to start your MTB collection begin with "Where We All Belong" and "A New Life" but if you're looking for a killer addition to your existing MTB collection this would be a great one to pick up. Oh, yeah! The CD reissue has not only much-improved sound, but also a killer bonus live track: "(If I Could) See You One More Time."

"Long Hard Ride" (Toy Caldwell) - 3:48
"Property Line" (Toy Caldwell) - 2:57
"Am I The Kind of Man" (Toy Caldwell) - 4:21
