Comme un rayon de soleil, surgit alors dans sa vie aride le petit Rowdy, fils d'une cousine incarcérée, dont on lui confie la garde.

Joe Wilkins - Nella terra dei lupi eBooks & eLearning

Posted by Karabas91 at Sept. 26, 2020

Delphia, Montana. La vita non è facile per il ventiquattrenne Wendell Newman: suo padre è scomparso tra le montagne da più di dieci anni, la terra, che avrebbe potuto essere sua, è stata quasi tutta venduta o data in affitto e, dopo la morte di sua madre, pesanti imposte gravano sul poco che gli è rimasto: un pick-up e un trailer in cui vivere. Un giorno bussa alla porta del trailer un'assistente sociale che ha con sé un bambino, un marmocchio gracile con un sacchetto di plastica e un quaderno a spirale in mano. È Rowdy, il figlio di Lacy, la cugina arrestata e imprigionata per spaccio di stupefacenti. Ha un «ritardo nello sviluppo» e «diverse problematiche» e, da quando la polizia lo ha trovato, solo e abbandonato in un appartamento vuoto, non ha ancora detto una sola parola. Wendell è il parente più prossimo, spetterebbe a lui farsene carico. L'uomo accetta a malincuore di tenerlo con sé..

This Mosaic compilation draws from material that comprised five separate RCA Victor LPs of the 1950: Al Cohn's The Natural Seven and The Jazz Workshop: Four Brass, One Tenor, Freddie Green's Mr. Rhythm, plus two Joe Newman records, All I Wanna Do Is Swing and I'm Still Swinging. Cohn, Green, and Newman are the common element to all of the recording sessions, leading bands ranging from septets to nonets.The Natural Seven was inspired by the Kansas City Seven drawn from the Count Basie band of the 1930s, and while the arrangements by Cohn and Manny Albam swing lightly in the style of Basie's septet, the focus is more on originals written for the session rather than simply recreating earlier recordings.

Jack Wilkins - Alien Army (1991/1996) Music

Posted by Domestos at June 28, 2020

Jack Rivers Lewis (born June 4, 1944), known professionally as Jack Wilkins, is a jazz guitarist. A native of New York City, Wilkins grew up listening to his parents' music, such as Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and Billie Holiday. He started playing guitar when he was ten. He had an older cousin who played albums for him by Charlie Christian, Tal Farlow, Django Reinhardt, and Johnny Smith. He cites Smith's Designed for You as one of the albums that meant the most to him, in addition to Sounds of Synanon by Joe Pass, Poll Winners by Barney Kessel, The Swinging Guitar of Tal Farlow, and Interpretations of Tal Farlow.

WEB FLAC (Tracks) - 329 MB | Cover | MP3 CBR 320 kbps - 118 MB | 00:49:19

This recording could be considered a near-sibling to April in Paris, since several of its tracks date from sessions recorded the same month. Others overlap with material cut for The Greatest!! Count Basie Plays, Joe Williams Sings Standards, and aren't as compelling, either as Joe Williams vehicles or Basie showcases. As either of those, though, it does have its moments, most notably the original finale, arranger Ernie Wilkins' "From Coast to Coast," an eight-and-a-half-minute blow-out, the Ella Fitzgerald-Joe Williams duet on "Too Close for Comfort," and the title track, rearranged by Wilkins but close to the classic rendering, which features lively solos by Frank Wess, Benny Powell, Frank Foster, and (especially) Joe Newman and Henry Coker.

Jazz / Bop / Modern Big Band / Modern Arragement

Arranger Ernie Wilkins' two Everest LPs, Here Comes the Swingin' Mr. Wilkins and The Big New Band of the '60s, are reissued in full on this single CD. Recording during 1959-1960, Wilkins used an overlapping personnel of Count Basie members (both past and of the time), some of the top jazz-oriented studio players, and various miscellaneous jazz musicians. There is no way that this could have been a full-time big band, not with such soloists as Duke Ellington's tenor saxophonist Paul Gonsalves, trumpeters Clark Terry and Thad Jones, and the Basie players, but Wilkins' swinging arrangements gave his short-lived orchestra its own sound.
