The Glove – Blue Sunshine (1983) [1990 Reissue]

The Glove - Blue Sunshine (1983) [1990 Reissue]

This one-off collaboration between the Cure’s Robert Smith and Siouxsie & the Banshees’ Steven Severin resulted in an eccentric, and at times incompatible, mix of psychedelic sounds wrapped around alternative ’80s pop. Writers Smith and Severin’s more eccentric tendencies are as likely to evoke pictures of a carnival as a funereal march, but the backbone rests largely on tightly constructed tunes with occasional forays into the experimental.

Joe Jackson – Live 1980/86 (1988) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

Joe Jackson - Live 1980/86 (1988) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

A double-disc live collection, Live…1980-1986 manages to effectively trace the development of Joe Jackson’s diverse career. Drawing from four different periods in the songwriter’s career — with each period featuring a new backing band — Live captures Jackson with his original new wave trio, a 1983 quintet that was dominated by keyboards, a horn-driven group from 1984, and a 1986 quartet that specialized in straight-ahead rock & roll. The resulting album highlights his musical diversity, not his songwriting, which means the record is more intriguing as a historical document than as casual listening Continue reading “Joe Jackson – Live 1980/86 (1988) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]”

A View from the Top of the World, the 15th studio album by these prog metal titans, showcases Dream Theater’s trademark approach to group songwriting and rigorous musical acumen. The seven tracks totaling 70 minutes balance 21st century prog with riff-laden melodic heavy metal.

Richard Wright – Wet Dream (1978)

Richard Wright - Wet Dream (1978)

Following the release of the 1977 album Animals and its accompanying “In the Flesh” tour, Pink Floyd went on hiatus, having become popular enough to support solo albums by bandmembers who were inclined to make them. Guitarist David Gilmour and keyboard player Richard Wright were. For his album, Wright assembled some of the backing musicians who had been accompanying Pink Floyd for years, in particular reed player Mel Collins and guitarist Snowy White.

Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga – Love For Sale (2021) [Deluxe Edition]

Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga - Love For Sale (2021) [Deluxe Edition]

Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga recorded Love for Sale, their second duet album, with the knowledge that it was likely the last from Bennett. Back in 2016, two years before the sessions for Love for Sale started, Bennett was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. By the time Love for Sale was released in 2021, he’d officially retired from live performances. The Gaga collaboration wasn’t billed as Bennett’s final album, but given his health and advanced age (he turned 95 in 2021), Love for Sale is more likely than not a farewell.

John Mayer – Sob Rock (2021) [Japanese, Blu-Spec CD2]

John Mayer - Sob Rock (2021) [Japanese, Blu-Spec CD2]

John Mayer evokes the hushed professionalism of ’80s adult-contemporary rock on his all-too-breezy eighth studio album, 2021’s Sob Rock. Mayer has always worn his influences on his sleeve, often bringing together the bluesy fret work of Eric Clapton with the yearning singer/songwriter sincerity of James Taylor. He’s also made no secret of how much the sound of mid- and late-’80s pop/rock has informed his own work, and albums like 2006’s Grammy-winning Continuum and 2012’s Born and Raised have found him drawing upon the work of icons like Sting, Peter Gabriel, and Neil Young.

This unusual set has five selections from a date featuring the great tenor Coleman Hawkins, pianist Hank Jones, bassist George Duvivier, and drummer Shelly Manne. Both “Take the ‘A’ Train” and “Cherokee” find the group at times playing two tempos at once (Manne sticks to double-time throughout “Cherokee”), and showing that they’d heard some of the avant-garde players.

Duke Jordan, who played regularly with the Charlie Parker Quintet in 1947, was long known as a superior bebop pianist whose style was touched by the genius of Bud Powell’s innovations. This quintet album, also featuring trumpeter Dizzy Reece and the young tenor Stanley Turrentine, gave Jordan an opportunity to record six of his originals and, although none became as well-known as his “Jordu,” the music has plenty of strong melodies and variety. This is one of Duke Jordan’s better recordings and is quite enjoyable. Continue reading “Duke Jordan – Flight To Jordan (1960) [2011, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

Ben Webster’s final American recording was one of his greatest. At 55, the tenor saxophonist was still very much in his prime but considered out of style in the U.S. He would soon permanently move to Europe where he was better appreciated.
