The Best of Don Pullen collects nine highlights from Don Pullen's 11 years with Blue Note. Spanning the late '80s and early '90s, the compilation includes tracks culled from the pianist's time with the George Adams Quartet, his trio albums (one with Gary Peacock, one with Tony Williams) and cuts he recorded with his group the African-Brazilian Connection. While his original recordings remain the best way to understand his achievements, this collection is a good introduction to his style for the curious, featuring such titles as "Song from the Old Country," "New Beginnings," "Jana's Delight," "Indio Gitano," "Reservation Blues," "El Matador" and "Andre's Ups and Downs."

Trapped in Berlin. Alone among four million isolated people. A harsh, never-ending winter. No gigs in sight. Music as a form of therapy has never been as essential as now - gazing inward when gazing out has become way too disillusioning.

Vortex is Neal Schon’s ninth solo album, and is an all instrumental exploration of rock, jazz and world music. Stepping into this album was like stepping into an alien world. It was dangerous and exciting, beautiful and alluring, and gave you this sense of wonder. The best thing about this album was that it got you lost somewhere. The rhythm and beat gives a nice, steady ground to walk on while the guitar dazzles and reverberates through your entire body. The energy from it is intense and you could tell it was going to be one of those albums within seconds after pressing play.
