 Artists: Prestige All Stars Album: Earthy Label: OJC/Prestige (Limited Edition) Year: 1957 Quality: mp3@320 Size: 85 mb (with covers) AMG Rating: This January 25, 1957 jam session by the "Prestige All-Stars" features Art Farmer on trumpet, Al Cohn on tenor sax, Hal McKusick on alto sax, Kenny Burrell on guitar, Mal Waldron on piano, Teddy Kotick on bass and Ed Thigpen on drums. While it's not an earth-shattering date, what makes this blowing affair better than average is the original (though simple) compositions -- two each by Mal and Hal, and one by Kenny Burrell. |

1997: Jacky Terrasson Trio - Alive |
Music » Jazz » BeBop » Post-bop |

 |
 Artist: Jacky Terrasson Album: Alive Year: 1997 Label: Blue Note Total time: 60:24 Format: lossless (FLAC, cue,log) Size: 259 MB (inc. covers) REPOST with new links This is a very subtle date with the musicians utilizing dynamics and a lot of space (a little reminiscent in spots of Ahmad Jamal's Trio). Pianist Jacky Terrasson is so laidback in spots that it is almost as if he does not want to be recognized as the group's leader. Bassist Ugonna Okegwo works closely with him and drummer Leon Parker (famous for using a rather minimal drum set) fits into the concept well. Still, one often finds themselves listening to this music (a variety of originals and standards such as "Things Ain't What They Used to Be," "Sister Cheryl" and "Nature Boy") waiting for something to happen. "Love for Sale" (which is given the catchy bassline of "Chameleon") is a highlight of the intriguing but not essential live set. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |

2002 — 2003: Daniel Kramer - Jazz Games (2CD) |
Music » Jazz » Fusion » Contemporary Jazz |
 |
 |
 Artist: Daniel Kramer/ Даниил Крамер Album: Jazz Games (2CD) Label: Promo Edition Years: 2002 — 2003 Quality: MP3@320 kbps Size: 129 mb; 117 mb Total time: 58:45; 53:28 Leading figure on the Russian jazz scene, with an established international reputation, Kramer gives a virtuoso solo performance of jazz standards and improvisations. Хотя пианиста Даниила Крамера и принято причислять к джазменам, он – музыкант из той редкой категории, кто одинаково свободно чувствуют себя как в джазовом, так и в академическом мире. Альбом «Jazz Games», записанный шесть лет назад и наконец вышедший в широком формате, – лучшее тому доказательство. Если обращение классики в джаз – дело привычное (так уж устроены джазмены, что переигрывают на свой лад все, что слышат), то обратная дорога куда более трудна и извилиста. Даниил Крамер не столько переиначивает джаз на академический манер, сколько смешивает и отождествляет эти понятия. Его собственные сочинения соседствуют здесь с композициями Дюка Эллингтона (Duke Ellington), Кита Джаррета (Keith Jarret) и Бенни Голсона (Benny Golson). А фортепиано как единственный инструмент, звучащий на протяжении всей пластинки (исключение составляет лишь дуэт со скрипачом Дидье Локвудом (Didier Lockwood), пьеса «All the Things You Are»), только подчеркивает чистоту эксперимента, изысканность этой игры разума. ~ Style Records |

2004: Paul Brody's Sadawi - Beyond Babylon |
Fusion, Modern Jazz, Avantgarde |
 |
 |
 Artist: Paul Brody's Sadawi Album: Beyond Babylon Label: Tzadik Records Year: 2004 Format, bitrate: mp3, 320 Time: 54:34 Size: 123 mb AMG Rating: On his second album fronting his band Sadawi, trumpeter and composer Paul Brody continues his work in the avant-klezmer trenches, helping to drag that hundred-year-old music kicking and screaming into the 21st century. On Beyond Babylon he shows his unwillingness to be constrained by any ghetto boundaries, opening the album with an extended deconstruction of the Shaker hymn "Simple Gifts" (which features a hair-raisingly skronky banjo solo by Brandon Seabrook), and making use of elements of both dub (on the contemplative and lovely "Timepeace"), and rock (note the guitar parts on "Fragment of Kafka's Friend") as well as lots and lots of modern jazz. Most of the album is thrilling; Brody's take on the David Krakauer composition "Klezmer à la Bechet" is a joyful romp in five/four meter, "Glass Dance" is a masterful chamber jazz excursion featuring guest Alan Bern on melodica; Brody's own "An Eye for a You" struts out like a brazen shtetl girl daring someone to dance with her. Only the scattershot and static "Masks and Faces" fails to impress. Highly recommended overall.~ Rick Anderson, All Music Guide Paul Brody's Beyond Babylon (Tzadik), the follow-up to 2002's Kabbalah Dream, features the same sparse and effective lineup known as Sadawi: the leader on trumpet, Jan Hermerschmidt on clarinets, Brandon Seabrook on banjo and guitar, Martin Lillich on bass and Eric Rosenthal on drums. Based in Berlin, Brody has an alt-klezmer worldview not unlike Frank London's or David Krakauer's, so it's not surprising to find smart adaptations of London's "Golem Khosidl" and Krakauer's "Klezmer a la Bechet" on this album. Ben Goldberg's "Masks and Faces," done in a snaky 5/4, features Alan Bern on accordion. "A Fragment of Kafka's Friend," loosely based on a piece by Naftule's Dream, showcases the group at its most abstract. The remaining originals are animated by a Krakauer-esque melding of shtetl music, hard rock and electro-tweaking. Some of the writing is too kitschy, but the banjo is a fun and unusual touch.~ David R. Adler, Jazztimes |
