Jackie Leven Sacred Bond

There’s a saying that ‘the family that plays together, stays together.’ That old adage is put into effect on Brecker Plays Rovatti: Sacred Bond, which not only features the husband and wife team of Grammy Award-winning trumpeter and fusion pioneer Randy Brecker and saxophonist-composer Ada Rovatti but also includes their 10-year-old daughter Stella in a vocal cameo appearance on one track.

There's a saying that 'the family that plays together, stays together.' That old adage is put into effect on "Brecker Plays Rovatti: Sacred Bond", which not only features the husband and wife team of Grammy Award-winning trumpeter and fusion pioneer Randy Brecker and saxophonist-composer Ada Rovatti but also includes their 10-year-old daughter Stella in a vocal cameo appearance on one track. Backed by a versatile core group of pianist David Kikoski, bassist Alex Claffy and drummer Rodney Holmes, with guest appearances by keyboardist Jim Beard, guitarist Adam Rogers and Brazilian percussionist Café, the married couple forges an easy chemistry together on the 10 tracks here, all composed by Rovatti.

UK collection from the Pop singer/songwriter. Keep Me in Mind completes our reissue program of the singles recorded by Jackie DeShannon for the Liberty and affiliated Imperial labels. Jackie spent 10 mostly glorious years at the company, recording everything from folk-rock and R&B to Bacharach sophistication and beyond. The first two volumes of our series covered the years 1960 to 1967 and comprised 100% mono single mixes. This third volume takes US into the stereo era. Tracks 1 to 18 are mono, the rest are stereo, mirroring how the singles were released at the time. The set commences with the endearingly kooky 'Changin' My Mind' and concludes with a previously unissued edit of Jackie's reading of Leonard Cohen's 'Bird on the Wire', a cancelled single from 1970. In between are included such self-penned gems as 'I Keep Wanting You', 'Nicole', 'Laurel Canyon', 'Mediterranean Sky' and Jackie's signature song 'Put a Little Love in Your Heart', plus her versions of the Bands' 'The Weight', Bobby Womack's 'What Is This' and John Sebastian's 'Didn't Want to Have to Do It', another cancelled single. Ace.

2009 collection of digitally remastered recordings from the ultra-talented singer and songwriter. With the looks and voice of an angel and the songwriting chops that equaled those of her contemporaries, DeShannon was one of the most talented artists to emerge in the '60s. While her songwriting has been celebrated over the years, her original recordings have often been overlooked. This first volume of her original singles issued on the Liberty label will hopefully set the record straight! 26 tracks including 'When You Walk in the Room', 'Heaven Is Being with You', 'Needles And Pins', '500 Miles' and many more. Ace.
