The Most Romantic Jazz Music in the Universe by Various Artists (CD - 10/01/2005)
"The Most Romantic Jazz Music in the Universe" (10/01/2005) Jazz Instrument Various Artists, SavoyCompeting well with similar compilations, The Most Romantic Jazz Music in the Universe is a solid and steady two-disc collection of mellow, romance-ready jazz featuring more recent artists such as pianist Eliane Elias alongside legends including alto saxophonist Cannonball Adderley. Okay, perhaps not the most romantic jazz in the universe, more like the most romantic jazz on Denon. Nonetheless, when you've got guitarists Pat Martino and Kenny Burrell on your album you know things are gonna be right for the afterglow. ~ Matt Collar

"Straight, No Chaser [Remaster]" (08/27/1996) Jazz Instrument Original Soundtrack, Legacy RecordingsOriginal score composed by Thelonious Monk. Producer: Orrin Keepnews. Reissue producers: Didier C.

This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Personnel: Thelonious Monk (piano); Charlie Rouse (tenor saxophone); Ben Riley (drums). Audio Remasterer: Mark Wilder. Audio Remixer: Mark Wilder. Liner Note Author: Orrin Keepnews. Recording information: Colubia Records, New York, NY (11/14/1966-01/10/1967); Columbia 30th Street Studio, New York, NY (11/14/1966-01/10/1967); Columbia Records 30th Street Studio, New York, NY (11/14/1966-01/10/1967). Photographers: Don Hunstein; Lee Tanner. Unknown Contributor Roles: Laszlo Kubinyi; Mark Wilder. "I'm famous, ain't that a bitch." Thus opens the soundtrack of the only documentary on the life of Thelonious Sphere Monk. Monk is an immensely important figure in 20th century music, not only as a virtuoso jazz pianist, but also one of the most innovative composers of any musical form. Although far from comprehensive, the soundtrack nevertheless achieves a satisfying cross-section of Monk tunes, from the infectious clunkiness of "Pannonica" and "Trinkle, Tinkle" to the painfully beautiful blue tones of the aptly named "Ugly Beauty." Interspersed with narration, as well as unreleased rehearsals and snatches of unguarded conversation gathered during the making of the film, these selections do an admirable job of capturing the complexity of Monk's life and music in fairly limited space. The biographical data provided in the narration, along with the accessible selections, makes the soundtrack an excellent introduction to Monk's larger body of work, while the inclusion of out-takes and audio snapshots of the man himself makes STRAIGHT NO CHASER desirable even to Monk connoisseurs. This CD reissue of one of Thelonious Monk's most accessible (and commercially successful) albums differs greatly from the 1967 LP. Besides previously unavailable takes of Duke Ellington's "I Didn't Know About You," Monk's own "Green Chimneys" and the rare and exquisite piano solo "This Is My Story, This Is My Song," the CD includes previously unheard takes of three of the album's original six tracks. The time differences in these versions are substantial: the title track is lengthened by nearly a minute, the classic "We See" by 2:47 and "Japanese Folk Song (Kojo No Tsuki)" by a whopping 5:41. (For purists, Columbia reissued the original album on vinyl in 1998.) As always, the more Monk the better, but the added material is particularly welcome in this case, as STRAIGHT NO CHASER finds the pianist and his quartet partners--tenor Charlie Rouse, drummer Ben Riley and brilliant bassist Larry Gales--at the height of their considerable powers.

Land of the Midnight Sun by Al di Meola (CD - 07/01/1986)
"Land of the Midnight Sun" (07/01/1986) Jazz Instrument DiMeola, Al, Columbia (USA)One of the guitar heroes of fusion, Al di Meola was just 22-years-old at the time of his debut as a leader but already a veteran of Chick Corea's Return to Forever. The complex pieces (which include the three-part "Suite-Golden Dawn," an acoustic duet with Corea on "Short Tales of the Black Forest," and a brief Bach violin sonata show di Meola's range even at this early stage. With assistance from such top players as bassists Jaco Pastorius and Stanley Clarke, keyboardist Barry Miles, and drummers Lenny White and Steve Gadd, this was a very impressive beginning to di Meola's solo career. ~ Scott Yanow

When I Fall in Love by Chris Botti (CD - 09/28/2004)
"When I Fall in Love" (09/28/2004) Jazz Instrument Botti, Chris, Columbia (USA)Personnel: Chris Botti (vocals, trumpet); Chris Botti; Jill Zadeh (vocals); Mitch Dalton (acoustic guitar); Fiona Hibbert (harp); Julian Leaper, Dave Woodcock, Deborah Widdup, Jonathan Evans Jones, Maciej Rakowski, Tom Bowes, Paul Willey, Rolf Wilson, Steve Morris, Roger Garland, Patrick Kiernan, Boguslaw Kostecki, Rita Manning, Kenneth Sillito, Cathy Thompson, Jackie Shave (violin); Ivo Jan Vanderwerff, Vicci Wardman, Edward Vanderspar, George Robertson, Peter Lale, Bruce White (viola); Frank Schaefer, David Daniels , Caroline Dearney, Paul Kegg, Anthony Lewis , Anthony Pleeth (cello); Karen Jones, Helen Keen, Stan Sulzmann, Philip Todd (flute, alto flute); Andy Panayi (bass flute); Nick Rodwell, Anthony Pike (clarinet); Jamie Talbot (bass clarinet, tenor saxophone); David Theodore (oboe); Bob Sheppard (saxophone); Nigel Hitchcock (alto saxophone); John Barclay, Guy Barker, Derek Watkins (trumpet, flugelhorn); Mike Thompson , Richard Bissill, David Pyatt (French horn); Pete Beachill, Mark Nightingale, Richard Edwards (trombone, tenor trombone); Dave Stewart (bass trombone, euphonium); Billy Childs Trio (piano, Fender Rhodes piano); Greg Phillinganes (piano, keyboards); Federico Gonzalez Pe?a, Billy Childs (piano); Brian Bromberg (bass instrument); Patrick Lannigan, Alec Dankworth, Chris Laurence, Mary Scully (double bass); Ralph Salmins (drums); Paula Cole, Sting (vocals); Dean Parks, Dominic Miller, Shane Fontayne (guitar); Gil Goldstein (accordion); Jeff Lorber (keyboards); Billy Kilson, Vinnie Colaiuta (drums); Paulinho Da Costa (percussion). Audio Mixer: Al Schmitt. Recording information: Air Lyndhurst Hall, London, England; Avatar Studio, New York, NY; Capitol studios, Los Angeles, CA; JHL Sound, Los Angeles, CA. Photographer: Fabrizio Ferri. Arrangers: Bobby Colomby; Jeff Lorber; Brian Bromberg; Jeremy Lubbock; Mark Schulman. Although the most popular contemporary jazz tends to fall into the "lite" category, trumpeter Chris Botti avoids painting himself into this corner by sticking with an approach more reminiscent of Chet Baker. For his 2004 album, WHEN I FALL IN LOVE, Botti takes it a step further by employing the London Session Orchestra to provide him with lush accompaniment on a program predominantly made up of standards. The Oregon native adds further layers to the album's sound by calling on singer Paula Cole, whose burnished vocals provide a fine foil on a brush-stroked version of Irving Berlin's "What'll I Do?" and "How Love Should Be," with its subtle mix of piano and strings. Along with exquisite takes on Rodgers & Hart ("My Romance") and the Gershwins ("Someone to Watch Over Me"), Botti also shows a knack for the cinematic nuance of Ennio Morricone ("Cinema Paradiso") and the pop-jazz of Sade ("No Ordinary Love"). The handsome horn player even ropes old employer Sting and bandmates Dominic Miller and Vinnie Colaiuta into lending their talents on the samba-flavored "La Belle Dame Sans Regrets" (composed by Sting and Miller). With its dusky mood, WHEN I FALL IN LOVE serves as the perfect soundtrack for a late-night cocktail party or a romantic evening by the fireplace.

Ella Wishes You a Swinging Christmas [Bonus Tracks] by Ella Fitzgerald (CD - 10/29/2002)
"Ella Wishes You a Swinging Christmas [Bonus Tracks]" (10/29/2002) Jazz Instrument Fitzgerald, Ella, Verve (USA)Personnel: Ella Fitzgerald (vocals); Frank DeVol And His Orchestra. Recorded at Columbia Recording Studios, New York on July 15 & 16, 1960 and Radio Recorders, Hollywood, California on August 5, 1960. Personnel: Ella Fitzgerald (vocals). Liner Note Author: Will Friedwald. Recording information: Columbia Recording Studios, New York, NY (09/03/1959-08/05/1960); Radio Recorders, Hollywood, CA (09/03/1959-08/05/1960); United Recorders, Hollywood, CA (09/03/1959-08/05/1960). Editor: Peter Pullman. Arranger: Frank de Vol. ELLA FITZGERALD WISHES YOU A SWINGING CHRISTMAS is a charming, warmly humorous--and yes, swinging--set of classic Christmas tunes. The program is familiar, from bouncy singalongs like "Jingle Bells" to slinky ballads like a downright sexy "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," but Fitzgerald treats each song with exactly as much respect as it deserves. And so Frank Loesser's "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve" is wistfully romantic and Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne's "Let It Snow" is kittenishly enticing. As always, Norman Granz's production avoids the schlock that drowns some holiday sets. This is as good as jazz Christmas albums get. This is a delightful Christmas jazz reissue featuring Ella Fitzgerald in prime form. On most selections she is backed by Frank DeVol's orchestra. The original dozen selections have been expanded with the addition of three alternate takes plus three selections only out previously on samplers, including "Christmas Island." Fitzgerald clearly had a fun time recording such songs as "Jingle Bells," "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer," and "Frosty the Snowman," along with a few more serious pieces. These concise performances (all under four minutes) are charming, making this one of the better Christmas jazz sets. ~ Scott Yanow

Liner Note Author: Dan Morgenstern. Recording information: Chicago, IL (05/29/1925-08/16/1967); Los Angeles, CA (05/29/1925-08/16/1967); New York, NY (05/29/1925-08/16/1967). Photographers: Corbis Bettman; John Loengard; Corbis; John Minihan. Arrangers: Don Redman; Alex "Charlie Brown" Hill ; Tommy Goodman. While Jelly Roll Morton claimed to have "invented" jazz, it was Louis Armstrong who cultivated the form by bringing individual solos (versus group playing) to the forefront. Due to Armstrong, solo improvisation became one of the hallmarks of jazz. Given Armstrong's remarkable trumpet technique and undeniable charisma, it's no wonder that he is considered to be the greatest jazz legend of them all. This Columbia Records two-disc collection documents Armstong's music from his early years as a member of Fletcher Henderson and Clarence Williams's bands to his swing period in the 1930s, when he fronted his own jazz orchestra. (The latter half of the second disc is dedicated to Armstrong's later recordings during the '40s, '50s, and '60s.) His elegant and highly influential trumpet cadenza on the opening of "West End Blues" is heard here, as well as his timeless rendition of "Heebie Jeebies," which is performed with his incredible Hot Five. THE ESSENTIAL LOUIS ARMSTRONG also presents many of his indelible vocal hits, including "Blueberry Hill," "Honeysuckle Rose," and, of course, the hugely popular "What a Wonderful World."

Legends of Acid Jazz: Sonny Stitt/Don Patterson, Vol. 2 by Sonny Stitt (CD - 01/26/1999)
"Legends of Acid Jazz: Sonny Stitt/Don Patterson, Vol. 2" (01/26/1999) Jazz Instrument Stitt, Sonny, Prestige RecordsOriginally released as two separate albums, Sonny Stitt's SOUL ELECTRICITY! and Don Patterson's FUNK YOU! Personnel includes: Sonny Stitt (saxophone); Don Patterson (organ); Charles McPherson (saxophone). Personnel: Sonny Stitt (alto saxophone, tenor saxophone); Pat Martino, Billy Butler (guitar); Charles McPherson (alto saxophone, tenor saxophone); Don Patterson (organ); Billy James (drums). Liner Note Author: Joe Segal. Recording information: Englewood Cliffs, NJ (09/23/1968-09/24/1968); New York, NY (09/23/1968-09/24/1968). Two-fer CD reissue combines two 1968 sessions, both featuring Stitt and Patterson, that were recorded on consecutive days (September 23-24, 1968), although one was issued under Patterson's name and the other under Stitt's. The first six songs were issued as the Patterson LP Funk You!, on which Patterson leads a date that also has Sonny Stitt and Charles McPherson on saxes and Pat Martino on guitar. The other players get about as much space as Patterson, and as 1960s jazz with organ goes, this is pretty straight-ahead and boppish, rather than soul-jazz (as so much organ jazz from that decade was). For the bop factor, listen especially to the cover of Sonny Rollins' "Airegin," on which Martino in particular shines. Patterson does get in a more soulful mood on his composition "Little Angie," which has an elegiac mood somewhat similar to occasional slow instrumentals cut by Booker T. & the MG's during that period. The other eight songs were issued as the Stitt LP Soul Electricity!, an album that got its name because, for this session, Stitt plugged his alto and tenor saxophones into a Varitone attachment. What came out, though, was not fusion by any means, but a pretty straight-ahead session that found Stitt his usual competent self. The program is actually on the conservative side, leaning toward standards. Stitt's quartet is rounded out by Don Patterson on organ, Billy Butler on guitar, and Billy James on drums. This isn't the most logical package -- Stitt's half is more straight-ahead in flavor and, more importantly, neither album fits too well into the soul-jazz or acid jazz category -- but for fans of either artist, the material is worth hearing. ~ Richie Unterberger

Monk's Dream [Remaster] by Thelonious Monk Quartet (CD - 08/27/2002)
"Monk's Dream [Remaster]" (08/27/2002) Jazz Instrument Monk, Thelonious, Legacy RecordingsPersonnel: Thelonious Monk (piano); Charlie Rouse (tenor saxophone); John Ore (bass); Frankie Dunlop (drums). Recorded at Columbia Studios, New York, New York in 1963. Includes liner notes by Peter Keepnews. All tracks have been digitally remastered. These 1962 recordings were Thelonious Monk's first for Columbia Records, with whom he spent the most commercially successful years of his career. Mixing his own highly personalized renditions of standards with originals, this was a pattern he followed for all of his subsequent releases with the label. Of his originals, only "Bright Mississippi" had never been recorded before, but after decades of toiling in obscurity, the re-recording of tunes such as "Bolivar Blues" and "Bye-Ya" was most certainly warranted. This is in part because they'd not been heard before by most of his new and wide audience, and also because this quartet (with Charlie Rouse, John Ore and Frankie Dunlop) had been playing at this point for two years--longer than he'd ever been able to keep an ensemble together before--and they'd settled into Monk's music like one charismatic and multi-limbed being.

A Smooth Jazz Christmas by Dave Koz (CD - 09/01/2003)
"A Smooth Jazz Christmas" (09/01/2003) Jazz Instrument Koz, Dave, Capitol/EMI RecordsPersonnel includes: Dave Koz (soprano, alto & tenor saxophones); Brenda Russell, Kenny Loggins (vocals); Rick Braun (trumpet, flugelhorn); Peter White (accordion, acoustic guitar); David Benoit (piano). Recorded at Capitol Studios, Hollywood, California. A SMOOTH JAZZ CHRISTMAS was nominated for the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Album. Accompanied by some famous friends, mellow saxophonist Dave Koz delivers, as this album's title promises, holiday standards with a smooth jazz style. If you're the type that likes to nuzzle up with the likes of Kenny G or Lee Ritenour at Christmastime, then the soft sounds of Koz and his cohorts will be just what Santa ordered. In addition to the instrumental might of Koz and keyboardist David Benoit (a smooth jazz icon in his own right), there are the vocal talents of Brenda Russell and longtime pop sensation Kenny Loggins, who add another level to the lite jazz sounds, fleshing things out a bit more than one might expect.

Christmas Party: Holiday Piano Spiked With Swing
"Christmas Cocktail Party: Holiday Piano Spiked with Swing" (07/26/2004) Jazz Instrument McKenna, Dave, Concord JazzThis collection of piano interpretations of Christmas favorites is a fine addition to the collections of fans of Dave McKenna. Highlights include a fun version of "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "Snowbells," and "Adeste Fideles." Not satisfied to merely plunk out familiar melodies, McKenna actually infuses these songs with creative flair and interesting flourishes that distinguish this album from the flood of other Christmas releases. ~ Stacia Proefrock
