New ReleasesRemembranceChick Corea & Béla Fleck "After Corea’s death in 2021, Fleck pondered some unreleased 2019 duo concert recordings, and sound files the pair had exchanged in the lockdowns, and Remembrance is his grateful and meticulous collation of that music… A unique document." Available Formats: CD, MP3, FLAC, Hi-Res FLAC Presents The Modern Jazz & Folk EnsembleSean Khan "Jazz and folk have always danced together, and Khan celebrates that alliance with a special focus on great singer-songwriters of the late 1960s and 70s... Let’s not be maudlin, asking ‘Who Knows Where the Time Goes?’ [...] but celebrate instead that time is now, the music is now, and very good it is too." Available Formats: CD, MP3, FLAC Sweet Whispers: Celebrating Sarah VaughanZara McFarlane "From a swinging ‘Tenderly’, Vaughan’s first solo hit, to the sublime tenderness of ‘September Song’ (from the classic 1955 album Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown), McFarlane’s silken timbre and emotional depth shines new light on this beloved repertoire [...] An inspired and lovingly crafted homage." Available Format: CD FrancescaDavid Murray Quartet "Here the melodies are alternately joyous and romantic, keeping alive the flame of swing era heroes Don Byas and Ben Webster, particularly on the tunes in which a 4/4 beat has a subtle strain of dance." Available Format: CD "Reid’s thematic material is abundantly rich and her longstanding quartet is an exemplary vehicle for bringing it to life… [She] asserts herself as an artist with sufficient ideas and ability to be a notable contemporary addition to such illustrious historic precedents." Available Format: CD AldebaranKatherine Windfield "The richly coloured instrumental arrangements are not only elegantly and urbanely constructed, but have a determinedly strong melodic thrust." Available Formats: MP3, FLAC, Hi-Res FLAC Archive & ReissuesGatewayJohn Abercrombie "Abercrombie somehow follows a preordained compositional trajectory. It is this structural strength in his improvisations that gives this music its strength and universality, reaching beyond the jazz audiences into musically curious rock fans." Available Format: Vinyl Record Louis in London >Louis Armstrong "With fine versions of ‘Bare Necessities’, ‘Mack The Knife’ and Armstrong’s recent hit ‘Wonderful World’, this is not only one of the final recordings by the All Stars, but one of their best." Available Formats: CD, MP3, FLAC, Hi-Res FLAC Copenhagen 1958Duke Ellington "Not only its rarity should recommend this material, but the quality of the playing, which then reminds you that Ellington’s piano contributions during the concert are always worth noticing too." Available Formats: CD, MP3, FLAC Barney Whittaker from www.prestomusic.com Edited by snobb - 07 Jul 2024 at 11:15am |
