Artist - Charlie Ventura Album - Blue Prelude 4 CD Label - Membran Years: 1946-1952, release - 2005 Style - bop, swing Quality - MP3@320 kbps Size: 112+116+112+109 Total time - 62:42+63:03+61:06+58:21
Превосходный джаз от превосходного саксофониста и его друзей-музыкантов!
Charlie Ventura was one of the protagonists of the Bop, whose motto is: "Bop for the people" - and that often included the singing of Buddy Stewart or Jackie & Roy A. His secret love, however, was the Big Band
Most of the music on this CDs from tenor saxophonist Charlie Ventura was formerly scarce. That is certainly true of his RCA recordings that feature his short-lived big band performing seven Duke Ellington compositions. While some of the solos are conventional, the arrangements of George Williams and particularly George Russell are certainly unusual in spots, quite impressionistic. In 1950 Ventura had another big band that also did not last.
On this excellent set (reissued on CD by Blue Note), McCoy Tyner had the opportunity for the first time to head a larger group. His nonet is an all-star aggregation comprised of trumpeter Lee Morgantrombonist Julian Priester, altoist James Spaulding, Bennie Maupin on tenor, the French horn of Bob Northern, Howard Johnson on tuba, bassist Herbie Lewis, and drummer Joe Chambers in addition to the pianist/leader. Tyner debuted six of his originals, and although none became standards (perhaps the best known are "The High Priest" and "All My Yesterdays"), the music is quite colorful and advanced for the period. Well worth investigating. [The 2004 Rudy Van Gelder Edition does not contain any bonus material. It does, however, feature wonderfully remastered sound in 24-bit resolution transferred from the original two-track analog tapes. It replaces the earlier CD issue.] ~ Scott Yanow, AMG

Несмотря на то, что на обложке ясно написано "Takehiko", правильнее писать это имя "Takehiro", поэтому я взял на себя смелость исправить текст автора поста. Давайте послушаем трио этого японского пианиста. Он играет довольно энергичный би-боп. Я бы сказал, что он немного похож на Oscar Peterson с "добавлением" Erroll Garner и Ray Bryant ...
Этта Джонс предлагает вам свою теплую блюзовую интерпретацию стандартов. Очень сильно увлекающаяся в ту пору Билли Холидэй, Этта тем не менее остается самой собой и её мягкий, интимный голос увлекает слушателя на протяжении всего этого прекрасного альбома !

This film of extraordinary historic and esthetic interest features Duke Ellington at the piano presumably composing the title symphony, crosscut with shots of a band playing the music. Includes the numbers "Jealousy", and the four parts of the composition in order: "The Laborers", "A Triangle (Dance, Jealousy and Blues)", "A Hymn of Sorrow" and "Harlem Rhythm". In the second part an uncredited 18-year old Billie Holliday sings the blues while watching a couple dancing Lindy Hop in silhouette behind a window shade. Dancers are not credited but Terry Monahan of the Jiving Lindy Hoppers suggests that they are "SnakeHips" Tucker and Bessie Dudley. Also on the film is the eccentric dancer (that's a style, not an opinion) Earl "Snakehips" Tucker demonstrating his gifts in an appropriately surrealistic film sequence.
Etta Jones - Вокалистка, исполнительница блюза, соул и джаза. ее считают одной из самых «недооцененных» исполнительниц второй половины XX столетия.
Своей "натуральной" манерой исполнения и фразировкой, Этта, более, чем любая другая джазовая певица, напоминала Билли Холидэй. В то же время она привнесла в хрупкую и уязвимую манеру Билли силу и остроту, напоминающие другую великую певицу - Дайну Вашингтон. Она познала в жизни много горя, отчаяние и боль потери (в первую очередь, после смерти дочери), но никогда не давала волю меланхолии на сцене .
Artist: Леонид Чижик (Leonid Chizhik) Album: Reminiscences Label: Мелодия (Melody) Year: 1980 Genre: Jazz, Piano Format mp3, bitrate: 320 kbps (LP rip) Time: 01:22:58 Size: 143 Mb
Предлагаю вашему вниманию двойной альбом одного из моих любимых отечественных джазовых пианистов-импровизаторов. "Реминисценции" были записаны фирмой "Мелодия" в 1980 году. На дисках собраны записи "живых" выступлений Леонида Чижика в концертном зале "Варшава" (Москва) и в Ленинградской капелле (декабрь 1979 - май 1980).
I bring to your attention a double album of one of my favourite domestic jazz pianists-improvisators. "Reminiscences" have been written down by firm "Melody" in 1980. On disks records of "live" performances of Leonid Chizhik in a concert hall "Warsaw" (Moscow) and in the Leningrad chapel (December 1979 - May 1980) are collected.
Итак, друзья мои, снова среда, и снова Ваш покорный слуга спешит поделиться классической музыкой. Музыка эта, как правило, хорошая и приятная. А как гласит главный лозунг нашего клуба? Верно, ХОРОШЕЙ МУЗЫКИ ДОЛЖНО БЫТЬ МНОГО Так давайте же послушаем сегодня скрипичный концерт Ре мажор господина Бетховена в исполнении одного из самых неординарных скрипачей современности - Найджела Кеннеди. А поскольку концерт этот написан для скрипки с оркестром, аккомпанировать ему будет Симфонический оркестр Северогерманского радио под управлением г-на Клауса Теннштедта. Итак...
Artist: Various Artists Album: David Merric Presents Pearl Bailey in Hello, Dolly! Label: RCA Victor Year: Nov 17, 1967 Release: 1991 Format, bitrate: mp3, 320kb/s Time: 44:14 Size: 96 MB
This is the recording of the all-Black cast that took over the show more than three years into its run, with Pearl Bailey and Cab Calloway in the lead roles. Though less accomplished than the original, it is notable for Bailey's individual interpretation of Dolly. Bailey was sadly underrecorded during her career, and this is a highlight of what little there is.
~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
Hello, Dolly! is a musical with lyrics and music by Jerry Herman and a book by Michael Stewart, based on Thornton Wilder's 1938 farce The Merchant of Yonkers, which Wilder revised and retitled The Matchmaker in 1955.
Hello, Dolly! was first produced on Broadway by David Merrick in 1964, winning the Tony Award for Best Musical and nine other Tonys. The show album Hello, Dolly! An Original Cast Recording was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2002.[1] The show has become one of the most enduring musical theatre hits, enjoying three Broadway revivals and international success. It was also made into a 1969 film that was nominated for seven Academy Awards.

Artist: Screamin’ Jay Hawkins Album: At Last Release: 1998 Format, bitrate: mp, 320 kbps Size: 103 MB
"These 1997 recordings are among Screamin' Jay Hawkins' last sessions. After various pairings with sub-par backing or producers who weren't the optimum choice, AT LAST is a winner, produced by Jim Dickinson at Sam Phillips Recording Service in Memphis. In drummer Roger Hawkins and bass player David Hood, Hawkins has one of the best rhythm sections he's had in years. The dozen originals stay close to Hawkins' favored bluesy and soulful grooves, with the subject matter sticking to his usual themes of voodoo, cheating, and bodily functions." Swaptree.com

REPOST with new link from Mr.Bubu Hans
Guitarist Herb Ellis still considers this to be one of his personal favorite recordings. Ellis was reunited with his old boss Oscar Peterson and, with the assistance of Peterson's trio of the period (with bassist Sam Jones and drummer Bobby Durham), the two lead voices often romp on the jam session-flavored set. Most of the chord changes are fairly basic (including three blues and "Seven Come Eleven"), and Peterson was clearly inspired by Ellis' presence (and vice versa).

Artist: Frank Sinatra Album: Moonlight Sinatra Label: Reprise Year: 1965 Format, bitrate: MP3, 320 Kbps Time: 32:39 Size: 66,7 MB
Driven by a set of lush, sparkling Nelson Riddle arrangements, Moonlight Sinatra is a low-key, charming collection. Although the basic concept is somewhat nebulous -- all of the songs have the word "moon" in the title -- Riddle wrote a series of charts that suggest a warm, lovely evening with a variety of tones and moods, from light Latin rhythms to sweet ballads. While the album is a minor entry in Sinatra's catalog, it is nevertheless an enjoyable, romantic listen. Half of the songs on Moonlight Sinatra were originally associated with Sinatra's idol Bing Crosby, making the album something of a loose tribute. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG
Artist:McCoy Tyner Quartet Album: New York Reunion Label: Chesky Year: 1991 Format: FLAC, Covers from Bubu Hans Size: 409MB, 1,2MB Time: 74:13 AMG Rating:
Pianist McCoy Tyner and tenor-saxophonist Joe Henderson had not recorded together in over two decades when they finally met up for this Chesky CD. With strong assistance from bassist Ron Carter and drummer Al Foster, Tyner and Henderson make for a perfect team on four originals by group members (including the tenor's classic "Recorda Me") and four superior standards. The advanced hard bop music is as rewarding as one would expect.
Listening to this CD brings back a lot of memories. Mad Dogs & Englishmen was just about the most elaborate album that A&M Records had ever released, back in 1971, a double LP in a three-panel, fold-out, gatefold sleeve, with almost 80 minutes of music inside and a ton of photos, graphics, and annotation wrapping around it. A live recording done in tandem with a killer documentary film of the same U.S. tour, it was recorded at the Fillmore East, where the movie was a cross-country affair, and the two were, thus, completely separate entities — also, as people couldn't "buy" the film in those days, the double LP has lingered longer in the memory, by virtue of its being on shelves, and also being taken off those shelves to be played. Unlike a lot of other "coffee table"-type rock releases of the era, such as Woodstock and The Concert for Bangladesh, people actually listened to Mad Dogs & Englishmen — most of its content was exciting, and its sound, a veritable definition of big-band rock with three dozen players working behind the singer, was unique. ...
