If i had a dollar for how many times I have played this cd and how many times I have asked Alexa to play it, I would be rich. Love this singer along with the Black Pumas. Finding a lot of new music that I like a lot on amazon. Try new things.

Cool concept, so-so execution...
I first heard this playing in a Nagoya shop and fell in love with the remix of Ke$ha's "Tik Tok" (Ke$ha and Lady Gaga are EVERYWHERE in Japan), which then morphed into several other recent pop hits. When the salesgirl handed me the CD, I was pleased to see that it actually included thirty pop songs by the likes of Lady...

"L'attaque des clones" a satisfying taste of things to come.
I just saw "Star Wars: L'attaque des clones" last night (in Ste-Foy, Québec) at a sold-out show (it was playing in English at the theatre next door but I opted for the French version instead). First of all, the theatre itself was an experience: an immense screen that looked as large as an IMAX screen, intense surround ...

Ronnie Dunn like I've never heard before!
This is without a doubt my favorite CD, and I may be close to wearing it out before the end of the month LOL Personally, I never looked at the song list, just popped it in the player and let 'er rip. I sat back and was just amazed at the choices Ronnie made to put on this CD. Highly recommend it to any fan of his. ...

Elvis' 1963 studio LP wasn't lost, it was maimed!
With movies taking over Elvis' post-army career, their soundtracks, naturally, became the main focus of his album release schedule. The annual barrage of soundtrack LPs and EPs would yield enough space for just one new studio LP and one or two singles per year in his busy release schedule. "Elvis is Back!" (1960), "S...

Clapper's look back at the big ones is meant to accompany his autobiography
Import version, basically the same as the domestic release but featuring a better cover (imho). Released originally to accompany / capitalize on the release of his autobiography.

Daylight Again began as a duo project for Stephen Stills and Graham Nash, as David Crosby was in the throes of his legendary and debilitating drug addiction. Atlantic Records passed on the duo concept and suggested that Stills and Nash should somehow work Croz into the project. It was the group's last best hope. Sal...

What would the Band be like without Robbie Robertson? People wanted to know back in the early '80s. Well, if Live in Tokyo 1983 is any indication, they'd have been a kick-butt Americana outfit that still had a whole lotta life left in them. Playing with the Cate Brothers Band, the Band mixed classic rock covers alon...

The great, lost Brigati Brothers album
Eddie and David Brigati's lost masterpiece. Why hasn't this classic Rascals side-bar story been reissued on CD? It's easily the equal of "Felix Cavaliere" / "Destiny," and far outshines "Treasure." That something as good as this remains unattainable in today's music marketplace is positively mindboggling. I bought t...

Yet another spotty Chicago retrospective

As a rule I tend to really enjoy covers discs. Not this go 'round. Does neither Tom Petty nor Lucinda Williams justice. A good idea on paper, maybe, but poorly executed.

Southside's Mercury Years recaptured, remastered
This three-disc import mini-box makes the near-perfect companion to the two-disc "The Fever The Remastered Epic Recordings" compilation (2017).

How did I not know about this album before?
I miss Dana Key. I’ve had most of his D&K music and “the Journey” for years and never even knew he had another solo project. I ran across this album on YouTube and went looking for the CD - found it used and cheap on Amazon. Glad I did - this is good listening.

Evans backed by outstanding rhythm section
Like the first collaboration between Evans and Manne on the 1962 album titled Empathy, this album has a completely different feel from Evans' other work. Most of the album is uptempo, and while harmony is still Evans' focus, melody and rhythm are given equal attention. I am sure that much of this is due to Shelly Manne...

Up front, a good copy of this album in vinyl has excellent sound quality, but I want to disclose that to my ears the arrangements are a little too heavy and a little too busy.

This is one of my thrift shop finds (the vinyl was in pristine condition!) This album proves beyond a doubt that Previn's jazz chops are considerable.

Before you read my observations take the time to check out Tom's very thorough and helpful video review dated April 5, 2016.<br /><br />These are far better suited to home use than camping in my opinion for a number of reasons. Foremost (and why I subtracted a star) is they ar...

Previn's jazz chops are in evidence here
This album is yet another of my thrift shop finds. The mystery is on the cover it's credited as Piano Solos With Instrumental Accompaniment. I took that as a challenge because there were no hints in the liner notes as to who was backing him. I pretty much suspected Red Mitchell on bass and Shelly Manne on drums, but be...

Dinah Washington plus two instrumental tracks from NJF 58
This is yet another of my thrift shop finds. What caught my eye is this album contains the iconic track that was captured on video by Bert Stern, [[ASIN:B00003OSU4 Jazz on a Summer's Day]], which is track A4 on this LP. Since the tracks are not listed at the time I am writing this, here they are:<br />A1 Lover Come Bac...

Essential for Art Pepper and West Coast Jazz fans
Up front: the sound quality is acceptable, but not up to audiophile standards. I have no complaints, but if you are a discriminating listener with a lot of money in audio gear you may want to look elsewhere.<br /><br />Nine of the ten discs span the period between 1952 and 1959, with one disc from 1981, the year before...

An obscure gem from an obscure musicial - fun listen
This gem is one of my thrift shop finds. It's based on a 1959 Broadway musical that enjoyed 452 performances at the 46th Street Theatre. The music on this album mimics the play in that it's relatively obscure, but enjoyable. This album is from an era when soundtracks from plays and musicals were very popular.<br /><br ...

Wonderful pairing
This is the first of four collaborations between Peterson and Jackson and it presages the ones to come. At a few seconds short of forty one minutes this album is almost a tease.<br /><br />One of the nice things about this album is it has some of the restraint Jackson used with the Modern Jazz Quartet. However, Peterso...

Not essential and Baker not at peak, but still enjoyable
This recording was made for the Belgium Philippe Defalle label in November 1979 in Brussles.<br /><br />I subtracted two stars because Baker's vocals are very weak here. His performances during this period were always hit or miss and this was must have caught him on a bad day. His trumpet work, though, does not suffer ...

This is a great two album set with two additional tracks from a third album.

For the West Coast jazz fan
This album has a WWI theme because the song selection was chosen for their popularity during the 19-teens. Many of the songs are timeless, like track 1, After You've Gone. Others have fallen into obscurity, but when this album was recorded in 1957 many were still in the public's mind since WWI ended less than forty yea...

I discovered this album in near pristine condition at a local thrift shop and it was love at first listen. I have been both an avid Paul Desmond and Modern Jazz Quartet for for decades.

Decent sound quality for live radio broadcasts
This album is parts of two separate radio broadcasts - one from the Basin Street East in NYC and the other from the Blue Note Club in Chicago.

This album shares a lot with [[ASIN:B000CCB1PE Keyboard]] because it features Peterson in a duo with a bassist (two, in fact, with both Major Holley and Ray Brown swapping depending on the track). Also, some of the tracks for both albums were recorded during the same session.<br /><br />Since there is no track list at ...

I love this album mainly for the collaboration between Milt Jackson and Miles, but I have to give due credit to McLean's contributions too. Not only is his playing masterful, but Dr. Jackle and Minor March are his compositions. Ray Bryant contributed a composition as well: Changes. The remaining track is a Thad Jones c...

Private recording with spotty sound and excellent music
This album was recorded on January 24, 1980 for the Ornament label in Aachen, Germany (according to notes I researched it was in the home of Friedrich and Gabi Klemme.) The sound quality is a little on the muddy side and the snippets of 'crowd' noise that creep into the recording indicate that this was either a party o...

You will love Teddy Charles on vibraphone on this album. This was Charles' eighth album as a leader (he was 29 when this was recorded in a single session for Jubilee in NYC on May 29, 1957. It was released later that year under catalog number JGM 1047. It clocks in at 39:47, so it's not super short like so many albums ...

This is a live performance circa 1964 (I have been unable to nail down the exact date). The even is the After Hours Concert at the Esquire Theater in Los Angeles and is much wider than Just McCann. This concert (and to a degree album) has some historic significance because McCann introduces Monty Alexander whose debut ...
