Night and The City

CD-Charts > Music > Mainstream
by: Charlie Haden Kenny Barron

Release Date April 06, 1998
You need a good sound system with special attention to the higher frequencies to bring out the crispness of Barron's notes. Yet it also needs to pay sufficient attention to the low frequencies to allow Haden's strings surface. Once that is in place, you will be left with a timeless downtempo live jazz album. Night music at its best, this album has won a place in my heart and something tells me it is here to stay.

Bags and Trane

CD-Charts > Music > Mainstream
by: Milt Jackson

Release Date January 26, 2004
An unusual album from Milt Jackson and John Coltrane who you wouldn't expect to be playing with each other. Recorded in 1959 this was made just before 'Giant Steps', but its completely different from that classic album.

With Jackson alongside Coltrane the whole album takes a much more bluesy turn especially when Jackson is playing, and indeed there a couple of blues tracks on the album. So when you hear Jackson on these tracks its the same Jackson who played with the MJQ and made a number of great albums with Oscar Peterson. However, Coltrane was pushing the boundaries at this stage, so the contrast between his solo on say 'The Late Late Blues' and Jackson's is quite dramatic.

The supporting cast is, as you would expect ... Read More:

Live at Village Vanguard

CD-Charts > Music > Mainstream
by: Wynton Marsalis

Release Date November 01, 1999
This stupendous seven-CD collection from the all-world trumpeter, composer, and bandleader Wynton Marsalis chronicles the amazing evolution of his underrated live septets at the legendary Village Vanguard from 1990 to 1994. Sequenced to simulate a week-long gig, the set melds together three different incarnations of Marsalis's ensemble: the gifted New Orleans-born drummer Herlin Riley, the ebullient Wessel Anderson on sopranino and alto saxes, and the fluent trombonist Wycliffe Gordon are the constants. The mercurial Marcus Roberts and the fleet-fingered Eric Reed alternate on piano, while Ben Wolfe and Reginald Veal lock it down on the bass. These selections showcase the astounding "school" of musicians that followed Marsalis's first superband ... Read More:
