Emotionalism (Dig) $9.21 Though the banjo might seem to relegate this decidedly non-bluegrass trio to the alt-country fringes, the buoyant melodies and heart-tugging harmonies on the album-opening “Die Die Die” and “Will You Return?” owe more to the early Beatles. Despite the stripped-down, largely acoustic arrangements, the 14 cuts here cover an impressively expansive musical terrain, with “Pretty Girl from Chile” and “… |

Forever Today $15.18 Sometime after the release of I’m from Barcelona’s melancholy to the point of tears Who Killed Harry Houdini? album, life must have gotten better for the band’s leader, Emanuel Lundgren. Released in 2011, Forever Today restores the sunny disposition and breezily melodic attitude of their debut record, with only an occasional cloud looming overhead, but also a deeper emotional context and impact. Recorded live in two sessions, the record has a marvelously loose and unaffected sound as the huge band (22 members strong) fills in the tunes with horns, percussion, and group vocals. Lundgren has become a master of fitting the pieces together to make the ensemble sound both innocently intimate and impressively large when the occasion demands. His vocals, too, have become stronger and more expressive. With the sound and voices, the songs could be a little weak and the album would still make for nice background music on a warm summer day. They are quite strong, though, mostly leaping out of the speakers and straight into your memory bank. Starting off with the incredibly buoyant and summery “Charlie Parker,” the album bursts to life like the first light of the morning shining through the blinds. The next couple songs also blind you with sunbeams. “Get in Line”’s bubbling dance beats and chanted chorus are incredibly sticky and light, and as for the barrelhouse piano and ba-ba-ba backing vocals of “Battleships” and the fragile hopes and tender bells of “Always Spring” — they’re almost too much, almost too joyous and pretty to handle. Lundgren’s heart isn’t on his sleeve; it’s on yours, beating away like crazy. The rest of the album barely lets up, with the heavenly pop hits coming one after the other. Between the nakedly honest vocals, the power of the massed voices, and the tenderness underlying the music and melodies, Forever Today is a perfect blend of the lighthearted joy of the debut record and the weary gloom of Houdini. Lundgren and crew may have lost some of the buzz they initially had when the band first started, but they’ve gained grace and emotional strength in return. That’s a pretty good trade, and for the fans who have stuck with them, it makes Forever Today their most satisfying record to date. ~ Tim Sendra, Rovi |

Happy Today $15.98 New York-based singer/songwriter (and actress/screenwriter, etc.) Susannah Blinkoff makes her recorded debut under the sobriquet Camp Susannah with an album of mature, sensitive pop songs that strongly recall late-era Everything But the Girl, when the duo’s original folk-jazz-indie inclinations were being supplanted by downtempo electronic beats. (The exception is the sassy “Catch Me,” which sounds unnervingly like a lesser track by New York’s It Girl of 2004, Nellie McKay.) Blinkoff, the daughter of ’70s singer/songwriter Carol Hall (best known for her original score of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas), has a voice that’s appealing but not terribly distinctive, and her songwriting can sometimes be similarly vague. At the album’s best, like the tropical-flavored piano ballad “We Were Gonna Be,” Blinkoff sounds like a somewhat more aggressive Norah Jones. Filler like the unnecessary remix of the opening “Way OK” does mar the album a bit, but overall, Happy Today delivers on most of its promise. ~ Stewart Mason, Rovi Performers: Billy West – Fender Rhodes; Phil Parlapiano – Wurlitzer, Fender Rhodes, Organ; David Sutton – Bass (Electric), Guitar (Acoustic), Bass, Keyboards, Guitar; John Ballinger – Wind, Vocals, Keyboards, Guitar, Clarinet, Guitar (Electric); John Paterno – Bass, Guitar; Scott Breadman – Percussion; Susannah Blinkoff – Vocals |

Yesterday and Today $12.78 In case any doubt remained about Axel Willner’s desire to be accessible beyond the realm of electronic dance music, his second album as the Field, Yesterday and Today, was licensed by Kompakt for U.S. release on Anti — the eclectic, Epitaph-distributed label that was, at the time, pushing releases by Neko Case, Ramblin’ Jack Elliot, and Booker T. At the least, it might help him shed some of the false associations that have been made between him and minimal techno, without exception drawn by those who are much more familiar with guitar bands than dance music. After all, Willner’s productions are as minimal techno as early-’90s Field precursors Seefeel were minimal rock; they’re not the least bit minimal, at least not sonically, and his approach to techno continues to sound like that of a dream pop/shoegaze freak. Those who dismissed the Swedish producer’s first singles and From Here We Go Sublime for their unwavering formulaic nature won’t likely be won over by this set, even though it features occasional input from several instrumentalists (including Battles drummer John Stanier), carries a few more twists and turns, and features a fairly straight cover of the Korgis’ “Everybody’s Got to Learn Some Time.” It’s more like a 30 than a 180, similar in its use of thickly layered, soothing white noise applied to cushiony thumps and microsamples, like the slivers of Elizabeth Fraser’s voice from the Cocteau Twins’ “Lorelei,” used in “The More That I Do.” If open to it, the album can be even more enveloping than the debut. The added warmth and a little extra depth go a long way. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi Performers: Alex Willner – Vocals (Background), Guitar; Dan Enquist – Electronics, Vibraphone, Vocals (Background); Johan Grimund – Vibraphone, Guitar; Ola Keijer – Vocals (Background), Piano; John Stanier – Drums; Victor Tarre – Vocals |

Today and Tomorrow $9.58 McCoy Tyner’s fourth studio album has a split personality, with three tracks featuring an intriguing sextet of all-stars, and the rest with his trusty trio, done eight months apart. Perhaps the tracks with bassist Jimmy Garrison and drummer Albert Heath were leftovers from a prior incomplete or aborted full session, but anything Tyner played in this period was precious. The larger ensemble recordings present trumpeter Thad Jones as ostensible co-leader, composer of one selection, and lead soloist. Tenor saxophonist John Gilmore and alto saxophonist Frank Strozier join forces with Thad Jones to make what some might deem an unlikely front-line triad, but effective enough considering their established individualism. Bassist Butch Warren and drummer Elvin Jones support the six-piece band, the first and only appearance for Warren with Tyner while the pianist was still with John Coltrane. The jewel in this collection is Tyner’s “Three Flowers,” a keeper that his big bands played prolifically later in life. Here the sextet hits the modal 3/4 beat with a thinner harmony under the lithe, soaring, enduring, and beautiful melody line. The Thad Jones contribution “T ‘N A Blues” is an easy, basic, and short 12-bar chart with a phenomenal solo from Gilmore, while “Contemporary Focus” is a down-the-Nile signature sound for the controlled modal power Tyner wields, with Thad Jones belting out his bopping solo. The trio tracks are standards done with hints of other songs to begin with. Tyner fools you into thinking he’s taking off on “Impressions” when it’s actually “A Night in Tunisia”; “Autumn Leaves” has an improvised modal starting point that is quite spontaneous; and the chiming, wanton ballad “When Sunny Gets Blue” drips with all the pure emotion that Tyner can wring out of a weepy piano. Because of the dual nature of this recording, even devout fans of Tyner will find this CD somewhat incomplete, especially considering that this reissue has no alternate or bonus tracks. Nonetheless, the musicianship is so strong that it’s hard to deny the high quality of what is presented here. ~ Michael G. Nastos, Rovi Performers: Butch Warren – Bass; Elvin Jones – Drums; Frank Strozier – Sax (Alto); Jimmy Garrison – Bass; John Gilmore – Sax (Tenor); McCoy Tyner – Piano; Thad Jones – Trumpet |

Long Ago Today $19.98 It’s hard to believe, but this is only the fifth recording as a leader for the very talented jazz pianist/composer Sumi Tonooka. The title Long Ago Today is significant in that it pays tribute to both of her parents who recently passed away, and the drummer on the date, Bob Braye, who died shortly after these sessions were recorded. It is also an appreciation for bassist Rufus Reid, Tonooka’s longtime friend, jazz ally, mentor, and bandmate. With the two in support of her musically and spiritually, the result is a wonderful modern jazz program of originals that suggest influences and good memories instead of melancholy, while attempting to raise the bar on new concepts and theories in the tried and true piano-bass-drums format. Fond of the two-fisted modal approach of McCoy Tyner, Tonooka executes it in grand fashion on the quick waltz “Be the Dance” changing keys and repeating melody lines while intensifying the music from within. Tonooka’s left hand on the lower octave keys meshes with Reid’s bass quite often for an arresting effect, undeniable during the spirited “Renewal” which showcases the precision of Braye. “The Clinging” also uses the piano-bass tandem technique, creating a sonic image that sets Tonooka’s right hand flying. As Tonooka has been inspired by Kenny Barron for a number of years, his attention to detail and bright construct with darker undertones shows up on the inquisitive “Just for Now,” and to a lesser extent, on the innocent, shy tones during the ballad “Nami’s Song.” As part of a multicultural family growing up, Tonooka is naturally inclined to toss in something ethnic as on the bouncy, daring, dancing, kinetic 7/8 rhythm of “Moroccan Daze” or the slow, languid modal beauty “Dreaming of Tibet.” The lone standard “All of You” has always been a popular vehicle for reinterpretation. Here Reid’s witty punctuations lift and push the ideas of Tonooka ever forward. Her best to date, and a highly recommended recording, it seems Tonooka is still tapping potential while refining her search techniques on this very satisfying and enjoyable effort. ~ Michael G. Nastos, Rovi Performers: Bob Braye – Drums; Rufus Reid – Bass; Sumi Tonooka – Piano |

Today and Now/Desafinado $14.42 This remastered two-fer combines tenor saxophonist Coleman Hawkins’ 1963 releases Today and Now and Desafinado. Originally, these LPs were released separately on Impulse. Today is a straight-ahead date with pleasant renditions of the standards “Go Li’l Liza,” “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree,” and “Put on Your Old Grey Bonnet.” Desafinado is an attempt to match Brazilian rhythms with standards such as “I Remember You,” “I’m Looking Over a Four Leaf Clover (Jazz Samba),” and the title track. Both sessions are enjoyable, relaxing, and breezy. While new liner notes are absent, Impulse had the good taste to restore the original packaging: front and back cover art and liner notes. ~ Al Campbell, Rovi Performers: Barry Galbraith – Guitar; Coleman Hawkins – Sax (Tenor); Eddie Locke – Percussion, Drums; Howard Collins – Guitar; Major Holley – Bass; Tommy Flanagan – Claves, Piano, Percussion; Willie Rodriguez – Percussion |

Player Piano $11.87 For the product of a self-described socially awkward homebody, Memory Tapes’ 2009 debut album, Seek Magic, sounded remarkably expansive and exploratory, bubbling its way through seemingly limitless sonic tangents and stylistic intersections to forge something at once fresh-feeling and immensely nostalgic. Like its predecessor, Player Piano was created in Dayve Hawk’s New Jersey home studio, and it plows a similar if somewhat narrower musical swath: dreamy, texture-heavy electronic indie pop, dripping with reverb and lousy with synthesizers, commingled with elements of dance, rock, and new age that are in this case considerably toned down, if still discernible. This time, though, the visceral effect of the music more closely matches the insularity of its origins; these tracks feel simpler, smaller in scope, less adventurous, and more inward-focused. Having nailed a sprawling but undeniably evocative sound the first time out, Hawk’s evident focus here is on the songs themselves: save for a few relatively brief instrumentals, his vocals are notably more prominent than ever before. “Sunhits” is the most blatant of the album’s big pop stabs, with its clean, sheeny new wave guitar hook, midtempo New Order synth beat, and warmly harmonized refrain full of caustically double-edged positivity (“life is a dream if we never wake up…”). “Worries” and “Today Is Our Life” are equally vibrant in spots, though both tend to lose focus and momentum beyond their choruses (the latter in particular can’t seem to stay in one genre for more than a minute, squeezing in a razor-sharp, out-of-nowhere guitar solo and a church organ/sitar breakdown along the way). While these aural color bursts are at least decently interesting (unlike, say, the drab, plodding “Yes I Know” or the rote-feeling “Offers”), few of them make for particularly great pop songs, whether that’s due to overly distracting arrangements, Hawk’s thin, lackluster singing (which is often distorted through layering and textural manipulation, but in any case typically the least compelling sound here), or the nagging similarity of many of his melodies. (The sparsely folky “Fell Thru Ice” is appealing but slight, leaving the genial, sweetly patient “Wait in the Dark” as perhaps the best of the lot.) Player Piano offers enough of Hawk’s characteristically inventive sonic tinkering — including, the title notwithstanding, an intriguing emphasis on organ sounds — to merit repeated listens, even if these productions do sound worrisomely flat at times. But juxtaposed with the singular alchemy he achieved on Memory Tapes’ debut, it’s hard not to hope Hawk focuses his energies a little differently next time out. ~ K. Ross Hoffman, Rovi |

Women Screenwriters Today $59 The question of whether women write from a unique perspective has been debated since the silent era. McCreadie examines how this female sensibility has been defined and whether, in fact, it exists at all. Such films as Lost in Translation and Monster suggest that women screenwriters are moving in a new direction, heading away from the big-budget action movies that dominate Hollywood today. But action-driven genre films, like the thrillers of Alexandra Seros, seem to belie the perception that women write films that are more dialogue- and character-driven than those of male screenwriters. Whether or not women actually write differently from men and about different topics, the author's unique approach—working with and through the words and lives of the women screenwriters themselves—allows both readers and writers an otherwise unattainable look into the ever-growing and ever more essential world of women in Hollywood. Over the course of cinematic history, women screenwriters have played an essential role in the creation of the films we watch. The question of whether women write from a unique perspective has been debated since the silent era. Marsha McCreadie examines how this female sensibility has been defined and questions whether, in fact, it exists at all. The emergence of such films as Lost in Translation and Monster would seem to suggest that women screenwriters are moving in a new direction, heading away from the big-budget action movies that dominate Hollywood today. But there can always be found an Alexandra Seros, for instance, whose thrillers would seem to prove the opposite case. Working through these contradictions, Marsha McCreadie takes a captivating look at the words and lives of women screenwriters, allowing readers an otherwise unattainable look into the ever-growing and ever more essential world of women in film. Readers interested in film and women's studies will especially enjoy reading Marsha McCreadie's discussions of such films as Little Women, The Thomas Crown Affair, The Piano, Pollock, and Under the Tuscan Sun. Interviews with major women players in the movie business, including Sofia Coppola (Lost in Translation) and Emma Thompson (Sense and Sensibility), allow readers a unique chance to learn firsthand how women are trying to enter the business, how they pursue and approach the topics they love, and how they have managed to survive and prosper in the unforgiving world of modern cinema. By talking with writers working in Hollywood, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe, Marsha McCreadie provides film fans with an international perspective on the increasingly global film industry. |

Today’s Gospel Favorites $5.07 Today’s Gospel Favorites is a collection of contemporary inspirational material, capably performed by The Statler Brothers. While the music is impeccably produced and the group is in fine voice, the disc doesn’t provide many distinguished moments, even though the entire album is pleasant. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi Performers: Brent Rowan – Guitar; Duncan Mullins – Bass; Gary W. Smith – Keyboards; Hargus “Pig” Robbins – Piano; Jerry Kennedy – Guitar; Jimmy Capps – Guitar; Larry Paxton – Bass; Mark Casstevens – Guitar; Pete Wade – Guitar; Steve Turner – Drums |

I Died Today $12.78 I Died Today was the first release of Tzadik’s Lunatic Fringe series, a category reserved for only the most unclassifiable recordings. It offers 26 of the songs that Rodney Eskelin (who worked most frequently under the name Rodd Keith) recorded while working in the song poem, or send-us-your-lyrics business during the ’60s and early ’70s. Keith composed the music for these lyrics on the spot, and led a group of musicians through recording sessions of first takes. Regarded as a musical genius by many who met him, Keith’s song poem work is the only documentation of his output. This sampling includes a range of rock styles from innocent sugar pop to garage rock, from the New Christy Minstrels to the Doors, featuring Keith on various keyboards and on lead vocals for most of the cuts. His delivery on “This” and “Waiting for the High Tide” is reminiscent of Scott Walker minus the meaningful lyrics. In fact, there’s a hilarious amount of awful lyrics such as “Frankenstein was catching lightning bolts/to save his soul,” (“Graveyard Rock”); the pitiable sentiments of “T.V. Love”: “loving words don’t mean a thing, for you are always on the screen; ” or “Space”‘s befuddling incitements to “fly on little spacemen, fly on.” Almost parody, Keith does what he can to stay true to the lyrics’ mood, as with “General Custer’s Story Remains Legend” lyrics (including “when Custer lay so very still,/his faithful horse was very sad”) delivered in an appropriately exaggerated drawl and a Kossoy Sisters-style backing harmony. Some of the other material ranges from American-dream pathos, to inane Do-the-(fill in the dance name) ditties. Unexpected moments of brilliance are scattered throughout, lifting this album out of the realms of kitsch into that of full-blown cult status. ~ Joslyn Layne, Rovi Performers: Rodd Keith – Chamberlin, Piano, Guitar, Synthesizer, Keyboards, Organ, Vocals; Rick Russell – Vocals |

The Way I Feel Today $10.18 Though co-founding member/guitarist Sam Hempton quit the band before The Way I Feel Today was composed and recorded, Six by Seven still glower and buzz here as much as they always have. If they’ve lost their distinctive sound to an extent, their experimentation, at the sake of relatively clear influences, is interesting in and of itself. The all-out wall of noise is still firmly in place. But this time, the wall has a heavy shoegazer foundation and its graffiti is that of layered proto-punk grunge. The album’s highlights just happen to be the songs that easily call out their influences. “So Close” sounds like Radiohead meeting My Bloody Valentine; its melodic piano and dire keyboards gel with bombastic, feedback-heavy guitars. “Speed Is In, Speed Is Out” recalls the raging moments on Nevermind where Nirvana aped Killing Joke. “Karen O” suggests shoegazer punk, its superb fuzz dynamics and smart use of dissonance pick up the pieces from early Mercury Rev or Swervedriver. One thing is certain, and it’s that Olley has spent much time listening to the Jesus & Mary Chain, because when the band gets into a groove, it seems wholly influenced by the brothers Reid. There are enough songs here that fit into the mold of their past glories, but because the band experiments with styles so often, the album ultimately feels like a transition piece. Still, many listeners might find it an interesting proposition to hear a band as sonically exciting as Six by Seven filtering their influences. ~ Tim DiGravina, Rovi |

Vegas ’58 — Today $9.58 The proposition of deep freezing a late-’50s gig by Louis Prima and Keely Smith with accompaniment by Sam Butera & the Witnesses — which usually earned its tag, no small praise, as the Wildest Show in Vegas — and thawing it nearly 50 years later is a risky one; specifically, it risks losing most of the energy that made the show so special in the first place. Nevertheless, when Keely Smith’s booking agent, Allen Sviridoff, suggested that she resurrect the sound and feel of a vintage Prima/Smith show for a live appearance, she agreed. Recorded for the Concord label, Vegas ’58 — Today can’t help but pale next to the real thing. Most importantly, absent are Prima’s volcanic performance personality and Butera’s powerful band; in the show, Smith functioned as a cool flame, an able foil for all the exuberant action going on around her. Her 2004 band is energetic and powerful enough, and they do a solid job of recycling some of Prima’s own arrangements for his standards like “Basin Street Blues,” “Lazy River,” “Jump, Jive, an’ Wail,” and “That Old Black Magic.” And Smith makes the date as loose as her old shows with Prima, laughing and giggling and even good-naturedly sharing her possible lack of judgment in trying to reprise Prima’s vocal performances herself (which she then confirms by performing them). She does still shine on the material she performed with the classic show, such as “Don’t Take Your Love from Me,” “That Old Black Magic,” and a breathless closer, “What Kind of Fool Am I?” ~ John Bush, Rovi Performers: Ben Williams II – Trombone; Chip Jackson – Bass; Dennis Michaels – Piano; Jack Bashkow – Sax (Alto); Jerry Vivino – Sax (Tenor); Jim O’Connor – Trumpet; Joe Cocuzzo – Drums; John Chudoba – Trumpet; Kenny Ascher – Synthesizer |

Etudes for Piano Teachers $30 Just as musical etudes focus on the development of skills and address the technical problems encountered in keyboard literature, the “etudes” in Stewart Gordon’s new book also focus on ideas which prepare piano teachers for meeting the problems encountered in piano performing and teaching. This major new collection on the piano teacher’s art opens with an assessment of the role of the piano teacher, and goes on to explore various types of students and the challenge each presents: the moderately talented, but ambitious, student; the late beginner; the unusually gifted. Drawing on thirty years of teaching and performing, Gordon then bring fresh ideas to bear on the often-discussed areas of inner-hearing, pulse regulation, improvisation, sight-reading, and collaborative music making. There are sections on performance procedures, memorizing, pedalling, and historical performance practices; a carefully-balanced consideration of the role of the piano student and teacher; and realistic looks at the problems facing the profession today, the dynamics of a performing career, and the stages through which musicians’ careers often pass. Designed to open up new avenues of inquiry, to provoke discussion and creative thinking, and to challenge and motivate students, these essays will be vital reading for all serious piano students and teachers. |

Yesterday, Today, Forever $4.78 An edgier version of Jeremy Camp, the streetwise Stevenson’s voice lights up the contemporary worship scene on this six-song EP. Stevenson’s praise combines dance-pop, electronica, and hip-hop to deliver youthful faith-based messages. The EMT from Boise, Idaho adds rock flair to programmed beats and loops to fill a void where it seems few contemporary Christian artists go anymore. The exuberant title track is a catchy leadoff, followed by the trip-hop of “No One Ever Cared” and the lighters-in-the-air crowd-pleaser “We Got the Light.” Stevenson’s craft is a light, fun treat for fans of Newsboys and Aaron Gillespie. ~ Jared Johnson, Rovi Performers: Andy Anderson – Keyboards, Piano, Synthesizer; Jon Callender – Guitar; Ryan Stevenson – Vocals, Guitar |

Bartók: Piano Music $8.47 For anyone who believes Bartók is all string dissonances and folk music, this CD will dispel any myths. Known as a piano legend in his country even when young, Bartók composed pieces that, here, Jenö Jandó performs with great passion, elegance, and taste. It is almost shocking to hear something so turn-of-the-century and Chopin- or Liszt-like as Bartók’s Four Piano Pieces, but they are a pure joy to hear. The sweeping, majestic “Study for the Left Hand” is stately and emotional yet with slight reserve. Jandó brings out each swell in the “Fantasy 1,” and plays with impeccable phrasing. “Fantasy 2″ is sweet and sensitive. The most exciting movement, the Scherzo, is stirring, with incredible attention to the accents and rhythm and perfect rubato as the music necessitates. Jandó’s piano is a bright, clean instrument that records well. The Petits morceaux are tender, showing another side of the pianist’s emotional range. It is in the Two Elegies for Piano that one begins to hear a different sensibility emerge in Bartók’s work, for they branch out into a broader tonality and a deeper exploration of tone color. It was a wise decision to show Bartók’s work chronologically, so as to allow the listener to note the composer’s unique character and moving away from a standard Western sound. The First Term at the Piano, made up of 27 tiny movements, is a somewhat odd choice for an album. As one might surmise, they have a schoolchild feel, as they are indeed used even today to instruct beginners at the piano. But they progress somewhat in complexity. The simple, pure counterpoint of No. 6: Moderato leads to the Bach chorale-like No. 8: Andante and No. 13: Hol jártál; the No. 11: Menuett is indeed a minuet but with a distinctively Hungarian kick; and the syncopated rhythms of No. 17: Allegro deciso are wonderful. Perhaps it says something of an artist of Jandó’s stature, that though he can play difficult repertoire like the Four Piano Pieces so movingly, he also brings careful attention and humility to the First Term at the Piano. ~ V. Vasan, Rovi Performers: Jenö Jandó – Piano |

Jim & Jesse Today! $14.38 Virginia natives Jim & Jesse McReynolds began in the late ’40s as serious-minded bluegrass players; however, throughout their career (and despite inevitable returns to bluegrass) they have flirted with mainstream country and even rock & roll. That nomadic attitude is well represented on this collection. They did a cover album of Chuck Berry songs in the late ’60s, and one Berry song, “Johnny B. Goode,” shows up here. Meanwhile, the McReynolds originals on this effort, while not exactly mainstream, do tend to tread near commercial country waters (particularly the heart-worn ballad “Where Do We Go From Here”). Nevertheless, whether meeting the precise expectations of the bluegrass idiom or not, what distinguishes a Jim & Jesse album is Jesse’s syncopated, crosspicking mandolin style and Jim’s unwavering tenor harmony. And the brothers are in fine form here. ~ Erik Hage, Rovi Performers: Allen Shelton – Banjo; Blaine Sprouse – Fiddle; Jim McReynolds – Guitar (Rhythm), Vocals; Jimmy Capps – Guitar (Rhythm); Vic Jordan – Banjo; Weldon Myrick – Dobro; Billy Linneman – Bass; Buddy Harman – Drums; Jerry Whitehurst – Piano; |

Tonite’s Music Today $21.59 Valve trombonist Bob Brookmeyer’s musical partnerships in the 1950s with Stan Getz and especially Gerry Mulligan were celebrated but he also recorded three fine albums with tenor-saxophonist Zoot Sims in 1956 that are quite enjoyable, feature colorful jammed ensembles and hard-swinging yet cool-toned solos that owe as much to the swing tradition as to the innovations of bebop. This Storyville CD finds Zoot and Brookmeyer accompanied by pianist Hank Jones, bassist Wyatt Reuther and drummer Gus Johnson. Highlights include “I Hear a Rhapsody,” “Blue Skies” and Sims’s first ever recorded vocal on a “Blues.” This release is easily recommended as is its companion Storyville CD Morning Fun. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi Performers: Hank Jones – Celeste, Piano; Bob Brookmeyer – Trombone (Valve), Trombone; Gus Johnson – Drums; Wyatt Ruther – Bass; Zoot Sims – Vocals, Sax (Tenor) |

Tomorrow Today [RPM] $13.59 Hardin & York’s debut album was quite competent yet derivative early progressive rock, and derivative of Traffic in particular. At least, however, it came by its influences quite honestly, Pete York having drummed behind Steve Winwood in the Spencer Davis Group, and Eddie Hardin having joined the Spencer Davis Group after Winwood left. And the duo does get quite a lot of sound out of their keyboards and drums, although they had plenty of backup from some session musicians. Hardin sings and writes uncannily like Winwood circa Traffic’s “Forty Thousand Headmen” period, but while that’s a good standard to shoot for, therein also lies the problem: it’s not quite as good as the Winwood-paced Traffic, and certainly not as original. All that noted, if you’re looking for something in the mold of Traffic-lite and keeping your expectations realistically modest, this is pretty decent stuff. It might be a tad more rooted in soul-pop than Traffic, but it doesn’t suffer for that. Hardin’s vocals are impressively rich and gritty, and his piano and organ quite skillful. [The 2005 CD reissue on RPM adds historical liner notes and four bonus cuts from the same sessions. These are of the same respectable level of the rest of the album, if a little more sparsely produced and gospel-rock-oriented, with the exception of an unnecessary cover of Chuck Berry's "Rock and Roll Music."] ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi Performers: Ronald Hills – Cornet; Herbie Flowers – Bass; Mel Thorpe – Trombone, Flute; Mike Hurst – Guitar; Vic Flick – Guitar |

Nina Simone and Piano! $35.99 Her own best accompanist (especially during the crossover-happy ’60s), Nina Simone sings and plays on this 1970 LP. With strident vocals and a thoughtful piano backing, Simone makes her own a pair of radically different (though similarly fatalistic) compositions, Blind Willie Johnson’s “Nobody’s Fault But Mine” and Randy Newman’s “I Think It’s Going to Rain Today.” Her version of “Everyone’s Gone to the Moon” leans dangerously close to avant-garde overkill, but she returns with good performances on “Compensation” and “Who Am I?” A great moment comes when a tambourine finally joins her midway through “Another Spring,” and the lone jazz standard (“I Get Along Without You Very Well”) is given a touching performance. In an era when Simone often veered from crossover to experimental, Nina Simone and Piano! is undeniably difficult, but frequently rewarding. ~ John Bush, Rovi |

I Think It’s Going to Rain Today $9.58 Since signing to Concord and releasing Baby Plays Around, an album of jazz standards, in 2001, Curtis Stigers has really found his footing, and with I Think It’s Going to Rain Today, he continues to recast pop and rock ballads in easy, elegant jazz settings, an approach that allows his expressive, slightly raspy voice to work its wonders. It is an encouraging synthesis, and much like Cassandra Wilson, Stigers has an unerring eye for pop material that gains depth and emotional range when transferred to the jazz arena. Here he hits right out of the box with a wonderful restructuring of Willie Dixon’s “My Babe,” resurrects Mose Allison’s Vietnam-era “Everybody Cryin’ Mercy,” and delivers an urbane reading of an early Tom Waits’ song, “In Between Love” that reveals the impossible romantic that lurks under Waits’ hipster growl. Stigers has also developed into an impressive writer, as well, and the two originals here, “Lullaby on the Hudson” and “Columbus Avenue,” are both well configured, literate vignettes that more than hold their own along side such gems as Randy Newman’s “I Think It’s Going to Rain Today,” a classic ballad of conflicted emotions edging gracefully into ennui. This is an album of jazz-pop in the best sense, meaning it isn’t pop done jazzy, but pop actually done as jazz, which is an entirely different horse, even if some radio programmers will fail to grasp it. The only misstep here is the bonus track that closes the album, a less than striking version of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” (featuring Stigers’ ridiculous attempt at a scat vocal) that originally appeared on the soundtrack to the movie Game Six. Baseball songs aside, I Think It’s Going to Rain Today is a fine and nuanced album, and Stigers is on to something here. He’s an artist worth following closely, particularly if his writing continues to develop. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi Performers: Larry Goldings – Wurlitzer, Hammond B3, Celeste, Organ (Hammond), Accordion, Piano; Ben Allison – Bass; Curtis Stigers – Voices, Vocals, Sax (Tenor); John Sneider – Trumpet; Keith Hall – Drums; Matt Wilson – Drums; Matthew Fries – Piano; Pete McCann – Guitar; Phil Palombi – Bass |

Chicago/The Blues/Today!, Vol. 1 $10.38 The first volume in the groundbreaking, definitive series Chicago: The Blues Today! contains selections from J.B. Hutto, Junior Wells and Otis Spann. All three contribute stellar performances, but for Hutto it’s truly the place to start, because it doesn’t get much better than this; “Too Much Alcohol,” “Please Help,” “Going Ahead” and “That’s The Truth” are all classics, and Hutto is in perfect form throughout, with swinging support from the Turner’s Blue Lounge version of the Hawks, bass-rhythm guitarist Herman Hassell and former Bo Diddley drummer Frank Kirkland. Sound is crystal clear. ~ Cub Koda, Rovi Performers: Junior Wells – Harmonica, Vocals; Buddy Guy – Guitar; Frank Kirkland – Drums; Fred Below – Drums; Herman Hassell – Bass; J.B.

No More Stories Are Told Today Sorry… $10.38 Mew’s fifth full-length offering presents audiences with another meticulously crafted, highly melodic, and maddeningly esoteric collection of volatile Danish indie rock that replaces the dusky uncertainty of 2005′s And the Glass Handed Kites with a sunnier disposition that owes more to Soft Bulletin-era Flaming Lips than it does the icy, audio cave paintings of Sigur Rós. From the opening notes of “New Terrain” (which if played backwards reveals an entirely new song called “Nervous”) through the Yes-inspired closer, “Reprise,” Mew have crafted their most alluring collection of songs to date. While a handful of tracks (“Beach,” “Tricks of the Trade”) do veer into more commercial territory, it’s the epic scope of cuts like “Cartoons and Macramé Wounds,” “Hawaii,” “Silas the Magic Car,” and “Sometimes Life Isn’t Easy” — the latter two complete with a children’s choir — that provides listeners with enough sustenance to survive through to the next album. Despite its ominous (and lofty) title, No More Stories/Are Told Today/I’m Sorry/They Washed Away/No More Stories/The World Is Grey/I’m Tired/Let’s Wash Away is a dreamy blend of circular melodies and odd time signatures that requires multiple listens (this is par for the course with any Mew album) and a significant amount of cinematic stamina from the listener, and though it may not appeal to the masses, its mass is definitely appealing. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi Performers: Bastian Juel – Bass; Nico Muhly – Piccolo, Strings, Piano |

Today!/Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!) $11.18 These two albums represent the point in their history where the Beach Boys essentially divide into two distinct yet interlinked musical entities: Carl Wilson, Dennis Wilson, Mike Love, and Al Jardine (with Glen Campbell, soon succeeded by Bruce Johnston) on-stage and Brian Wilson in the studio, putting together the Beach Boys’ music with a host of top session players. Consequently, the Beach Boys started to tear the envelope around them, releasing extraordinary-sounding records and redefining themselves and their music. They’d held their own up through the end of 1964 as a largely self-contained rock & roll group that had some unexpectedly sophisticated wrinkles to their sound, but with Brian Wilson no longer touring, the music blossomed in new and unexpected ways, starting with the majestic Beach Boys Today! in 1965. The unheralded player in that transformation was Jan Berry of Jan & Dean, who explained to Wilson, frustrated at having to wait for the band to come off the road to record the music he’d written and prepared, that his duo, not a self-contained unit musically, employed the best session musicians in Los Angeles to play on their sides, and there was no reason that Wilson couldn’t do the same to get the music he was writing recorded — and that few listeners really cared who was playing on a Beach Boys (or a Jan & Dean) record, as long as the voices were theirs. So apart from the vocals, which feature all of the Beach Boys, the only group members heard on most of Beach Boys Today! are Brian Wilson on bass (and possibly on piano) and Carl Wilson on lead guitar. The result is an album that doesn’t really sound like any record that came before it, from the original, not-quite-perfect but still fascinating “Help Me Rhonda” to the spellbinding balladry of “Please Let Me Wonder” and “She Knows Me Too Well.” The Beach Boys’ music — ballads and rock & roll cuts alike — suddenly started sounding better than that of the Beatles or any other rock group of the period, in terms of craftsmanship. Although neither party realized that they were engaged in it for another year, Beach Boys Today! was also the album that more or less began the rivalry between the Beatles and the Beach Boys, with the American group suddenly making a leap past their British rivals, coming up with a more sophisticated approach to music-making that the Beatles themselves wouldn’t start utilizing until later in 1965 and wouldn’t perfect until Revolver, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, and their adjoining singles in 1966-1967. The second album represented here, Summer Days (and Summer Nights!!) rocks a little more, but it also features sounds that, put simply, were almost too pretty for a rock & roll group to make — between the rocking hits like “California Girls” and the single version of “Help Me, Rhonda” were jewels like “Girl Don’t Tell Me” and “Then I Kissed Her.” What’s especially interesting, hearing all of this material anew in glittering 24-bit remastered versi |

Today’s Pop Symphony: A New Conception of Today’s Hits in Classical Style $11.98 Today’s Pop Symphony is one of those odd records that should be more annoying than it is. On its face, the album seems contrived and bombastic, not to mention hopelessly dated. But assuming that one cares at all to hear orchestral versions of songs that were done perfectly by their rock and soul originators, it’s entertaining, at least to hear the choices that were made. Lennon and McCartney’s “There’s a Place” seems a strange way to open the album, and arranging it as a Baroque-style overture seems downright twisted; someone working with Oldham undoubtedly was impressed with the results that Joshua Rifkin had gotten with his Baroque Beatles Book on Elektra Records and tried for something similar. The brass sounds damned impressive on the bridge, but only about 20 seconds of this track are really recognizable as “There’s a Place.” The Four Seasons’ “Rag Doll” seems grotesque as a choice, but it’s quite nice arranged for string orchestra à la “Eleanor Rigby” (except for the kettle drums), and it does sound like the song it’s supposed to be, with some intriguing modulations in the first violins’ part in the second half of the song. “I Got You Babe” was a choice possibly dictated in part because the Rolling Stones had done a savage parody of it on Ready Steady Go, miming to the Sonny & Cher original. “We Can Work It Out” is a more successful Beatles cover, with the winds and reeds taking most of the melody. “Play With Fire” is the best of the Rolling Stones covers here, the high strings replacing the original’s guitar part while the lower strings carry the tune. “Mother’s Little Helper” is done in a rather dirge-like fashion and “In the Midnight Hour” is delivered by the brass in so sprightly and up-beat a manner that the soul classic threatens to turn into the old cigarette jingle “You can take Salem out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of Salem.” “Take It or Leave It” was never that distinguished a Rolling Stones song to begin with, and it mostly serves here to give the horns and brass a workout, while “Sittin’ on a Fence” is a string-laden miniature. The Bert Berns/Jerry Wexler-authored “I Don’t Want to Go on Without You” is the best part of the record, a delicate soul instrumental that doesn’t try to be anything other than of its source and period, just played on orchestral instruments with the violins beautifully subbing for the singer, helped by a piano. The bonus track added to the CD reissues, Otis Redding’s “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long,” is bizarre in its lovely way, the original piece given an arrangement closer in spirit to Wagner’s Lohengrin, with an uncredited guest appearance over one verse by Mick Jagger. The album has been reissued several times, including in the early 1990s by CBS/Sony and in 1999 by England’s Sequel Records. ~ Bruce Eder, Rovi |

B la Bart k – Mikrokosmos Volume 1 (Blue) $10.95 The definitive edition (1987) of the piano teaching classic. Includes an introduction by the composer’s son Peter Bart k. (English/Spanish/Japanese/Portuguese text). In 1945 Bela Bart k described Mikrokosmos as a cycle of 153 pieces for piano written for didactic purposes, seeing them as a series of pieces in many different styles, representing a small world, or as the world of the little ones, the children . Stylistically Mikrokosmos reflects the influence of folk music on Bartok’s life and the rhythms and harmonies employed create music that is as modern today as when the cycle was written. The 153 pieces making up Mikrokosmos are divided into six volumes arranged according to technical and musical difficulty. |

Bedtime Eyes $20.4 Amy Yamada is one of the most prominent–and controversial–novelists in Japan today. She bursted onto the scene in 1985 with her short novel Bedtime Eyes, which for critics embodied the spirit of the ”shinjinru”–i.e. Generation X– in much the same way that Less Than Zero, Bright Lights, Big City, and Douglas Coupland did in the U.S. Bedtime Eyes is the first English-language publication of three of Yamada”s novellas/short novels: Bedtime Eyes, The Piano Player”s Fingers and Jesse. While all are centered around the relationship between a Japanese woman and a black American man, each explores love, sex, and the vast gulf between from different and equally revealing viewpoints. Starkly imagined and sharply observed, Bedtime Eyes introduces to the English language some of Yamada”s best known and most influential work. |

Beverley Craven $11.98 Beverley Craven’s “Promise Me” was a hit throughout Europe in 1991, and remains an adult radio staple today. Bookended by a naggingly familiar rolling piano arpeggio, it’s one of those songs with a melody so well-crafted and easy to memorize, you almost imagine you’ve heard it somewhere before. Like most of Craven’s self-titled debut, “Promise Me” deals with love — clearly her chief interest. She doesn’t really explore the subject in depth, the way, say, Joni Mitchell might; her approach is more akin to that of a paperback romance novel, albeit a classy one. There’s unrequited love (“I Listen to the Rain”), long-distance love (“Promise Me”), sisterly love (“Memories”), and love for pet dogs (“Joey”). This is all well and good, and Craven is certainly a fine and endearingly romantic composer, but what’s missing is a bit of grit. The songs recall work by Karla Bonoff and Beth Nielsen Chapman, but while those two artists occasionally intersperse their lovelorn balladry with rock, country, or folk, Craven refuses to budge from one string-laden musical setting to another. “Two of a Kind” and “Woman to Woman” are uptempo cuts, but they adhere to the same formula as all the other songs, simply with a different time signature. It’s a relief, then, that Craven’s writing is so excellent, and her voice warm and unpretentious; otherwise she wouldn’t be able to get away with such single-mindedness. ~ Charles Donovan, Rovi |
