This is a good, solid pops recording; a disc that’s fun to hear. It’s not necessarily for hardcore jazzheads or swing dancers, but might be just the thing to introduce some of these classic tunes to folks who think they don’t like jazz. Most of these tracks don’t swing hard, but there are a few that even a dedicated dancer would want to try out. Continue reading “Erich Kunzel / Cincinnati Pops Orchestra – Got Swing!

All of her 1964-1967 sides for the label are included, serving as a comprehensive document to the first three years or so of her recording career.

Judas Priest was one of the most influential heavy metal bands of the ’70s, spearheading the New Wave of British Heavy Metal late in the decade. Decked out in leather and chains, the band fused the gothic doom of Black Sabbath with the riffs and speed of Led Zeppelin, as well as adding a vicious two-lead guitar attack; in doing so, they set the pace for much popular heavy metal from 1975 until 1985, as well as laying the groundwork for the speed and death metal of the ’80s.

Label: Concord Jazz | Genre: Latin Jazz
Antidote is a completely forward-thinking album, yet its roots date to the 1960s, near the beginning of his career when he played in the bands of Mongo Santamaria and Willie Bobo. During this period, he encountered the great Latin bandleaders of the era including Machito, Tito Puente, Ray Barretto, and Eddie Palmieri. In 1972, he penned the iconic composition “Spain,” inspired by Joaquin Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez. In 1976, Corea issued his milestone My Spanish Heart, that married fusion to Latin music.

Keb’ Mo’ named his 2019 album Oklahoma after the home state of Dara Tucker, the songwriter who co-wrote the title song with the veteran blues troubadour. Until that collaboration, Keb’ Mo’ planned to make an acoustic album, but “Oklahoma” opened the door to an expansive record that finds space for plenty of cameos (Rosanne Cash, Robert Randolph, and Taj Mahal all make appearances), not to mention understated protest.

For various legal reasons, no Ambrosia recordings were released on compact disc in America until 1997’s Anthology, and while it’s an imperfect collection, it does offer a reasonably thorough overview of the group’s career. It only briefly touches on the band’s early art rock records, choosing to concentrate instead on their early-’80s soft rock hits like “Biggest Part of Me,” “You’re the Only Woman,” and “How Much I Feel.” Continue reading “Ambrosia – Anthology (1997)”
