This is a true classic. Altoist Art Pepper is joined by an 11-piece band playing Marty Paich arrangements of a dozen jazz standards from the bop and cool jazz era. Trumpeter Jack Sheldon has a few solos, but the focus is very much on the altoist who is in peak form for this period.

Art Pepper – Surf Ride (1956) [2012, Japan, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Art Pepper - Surf Ride (1956) [2012, Japan, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The music on this Savoy LP is quite brilliant, but the packaging leaves something to be desired. The recording dates are all incorrect and there are only 12 performances included (around 37 minutes). There are quartet outings with either Russ Freeman or Hampton Hawes on piano and tracks from a classic session with tenor saxophonist Jack Montrose.

Art Pepper – Gettin’ Together! (1960) [2012, Japan, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Art Pepper - Gettin' Together! (1960) [2012, Japan, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

As a sort of follow-up to Art Pepper’s matchup with Miles Davis’ trio in the 1957 classic Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section, Pepper utilizes Davis’ sidemen on this 1960 near-classic. In addition to pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb, trumpeter Conte Candoli makes the group a quintet on four of the eight numbers.

Dusty Springfield – Dusty In Memphis (1969) [2013, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Dusty Springfield - Dusty In Memphis (1969) [2013, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Sometimes memories distort or inflate the quality of recordings deemed legendary, but in the case of Dusty in Memphis, the years have only strengthened its reputation. The idea of taking England’s reigning female soul queen to the home of the music she had mastered was an inspired one.

Stan Getz / Charlie Byrd – Jazz Samba (1962) [2013, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Partly because of its Brazilian collaborators and partly because of “The Girl From Ipanema,” Getz/Gilberto is nearly always acknowledged as the Stan Getz bossa nova LP. But Jazz Samba is just as crucial and groundbreaking; after all, it came first, and in fact was the first full-fledged bossa nova album ever recorded by American jazz musicians.

Stan Getz – Spring Is Here (1992) [2003, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Stan Getz - Spring Is Here (1992) [2003, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

This LP was recorded at the same sessions that resulted in The Dolphin but wasn’t released until after Stan Getz’s death. Actually the music (which features pianist Lou Levy, bassist Monty Budwig, and drummer Victor Lewis in addition to the leader’s tenor) is the equal of the original set, with “How About You,” “Easy Living,” and “Old Devil Moon” showing off Getz’s tone and strong improvising skills at their best.

Insomniac is finally old enough to rent a car (or whatever else you can do when you’re 25, we’re not lawyers), so we remastered it to celebrate, and we’re throwing in some bonus goodies to boot!

Stan Getz/Cal Tjader Sextet – Stan Getz/Cal Tjader Sextet (1958) [2004, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

In the vein of many a smooth West Coast jazz outing, this 1958 disc finds original cool stylist Getz paired with vibraphonist Cal Tjader on a very enjoyable selection of jazz standards and Tjader originals. The lineup includes pianist Vince Guaraldi, guitarist Eddie Duran, bassist Scott La Faro, and drummer Billy Higgins (this was one of the earliest record dates for either La Faro or Higgins, both of whom were playing with Getz at San Francisco’s Black Hawk in between recording sessions).

Keith Richards – Talk Is Cheap (1988) [1992, MFSL Remastered]

Keith Richards - Talk Is Cheap (1988) [1992, MFSL Remastered]

Keith Richards is not a man you want to be cross with you. After two decades of occasionally uneasy give and take between Richards and Mick Jagger, the Rolling Stones seemed on the verge of imploding when, after making himself scarce during the recording of 1986’s Dirty Work, Jagger made it clear he not only wasn’t going to tour with the band Continue reading “Keith Richards – Talk Is Cheap (1988) [1992, MFSL Remastered]”

Arguably the best and most influential rhythm guitarist in the history of rock & roll, Keith Richards was the principle architect of the sound that would make the Rolling Stones one of rock’s most iconic bands. Blessed with excellent timing and a minimalist style that cut deep without wasted moves, Richards borrowed from the playbooks of Chuck Berry and a number of classic blues players to formulate a sound that was decisively his own, and would in turn be borrowed by countless guitarists who aped his moved but rarely with the same impact.

Danny Elfman provides one of his most quintessentially Elfman-esque scores for one of Tim Burton’s most quintessentially Burton-esque movies, Beetlejuice. The film’s dark yet sardonically funny “Main Titles” is among Elfman’s all-time best moments, bustling along with a dark joie de vivre (or is it joie de morte?) that defines the spooky fun of both this movie, and his collaboration with Burton.
