In the 1970s, when prominent movie stars started to become the driving forces behind films, the jazz musician Dave Grusin was a favorite choice for film composer by several above-the-title male actors, notably Robert Redford, Paul Newman, and Warren Beatty. Redford starred in director Sydney Pollack's spy thriller 3 Days of the Condor, and Grusin got the scoring nod. The film was set in the New York City of the present day, the present day being 1975, and Grusin turned in music imbued with familiar elements of jazz fusion and R&B-funk. His "Condor! (Theme From 3 Days of the Condor)" could have been the instrumental track for a Steely Dan song of the time, and "Yellow Panic" was one of several tracks to employ wah-wah guitar à la Shaft.

Throughout his four-decades-plus career as one of Brazil's most popular singers, Gilberto Gil has restlessly sought new avenues of expression, from the heady and fiery psychedelic Tropicalia of the '60s to his 2002 album of Bob Marley covers, Kaya N'Gan Daya. But there was one thing Gil had never attempted until now, an album spotlighting nothing but his voice and guitar. Gil Luminoso is, by its very nature, one of the most intimate recordings he has ever made and, not surprisingly, one of the loveliest and most moving.

If you're collecting the Ralph Sharon CDs, then this one is a must have! I love Ralph Sharon's style of playing piano, where he can play Jazz without getting way off of the melody line into nowhere land. Since this CD was a Quartet, with the added Guitar of Gray Sargent, the guitar adds a little extra touch to the Ralph Sharon sound making the entire CD very enjoyable!

"Warren's melodies hold a fascination for jazz musicians that's above and beyond the call of duty….So at last, a Harry Warren Songbook has come along, and it's a wondrous thing, an affair to remember. This heart of mine is gaily dancing now. And that's something to keep in mind, the next time the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie." ~ Will Friedwald ~
