Joshua Gilmore (born July 6, 1944), better known as Joey Gilmore was born in Ocala, Florida Self-taught on the guitar at an early age, from watching a local minister-cum-barber playing his own flat-bodied guitar. Gilmore initially headed a band of youths who appeared in local clubs long before they were legally able to enter such establishments. In the 1960s, Gilmore relocated to South Florida, and he became a popular local attraction which led to him accompanying many touring blues, R&B and soul musicians. He recorded a number of tracks in the 1970s, including his debut single "Somebody Done Took My Baby And Gone"/"Do It To Me One More Time" (1971). He released several EPs at that time, as well as the "Joey Gilmore" album, released in 1977 on Henry Stone's Blue Candle label. His next album came twelve years later when "So Good to Ne Bad" dropped in 1989. The album reached #80 on the US Billboard R&B album chart…
Produced With Love is the extraordinary new album from UK legend Joey Negro: a buoyant, life-affirming, disco-inspired album that offers welcome relief from the grey-faced march of modern club music. Produced With Love is only the second ever Joey Negro album to be released, and the first for more than 20 years. And as the electronic music scene threatens to be overrun with faceless, bland and forgettable productions, Produced With Love proves that dance music with character still exists. And rather than rely on sampling older records, the overwhelming majority of music is newly recorded: a real rarity when it comes to modern disco and indicative of the level of detail involved in the project.

Indonesian pianist Joey Alexander’s first Mack Avenue title is also his first to contain all originals, an artistic shift he began with his 2020 Verve release Warna. The precocity he displayed with the music of Monk, Coltrane, and others on earlier releases is still there, as is the unforced, crackling rapport with bassist Larry Grenadier and drummer Kendrick Scott. Guest appearances by guitarist Gilad Hekselman and saxophonist Chris Potter (playing soprano on “On the Horizon,” tenor on “Winter Blues” and “Rise Up”) add texture and top-tier improvisational firepower. The trio cuts are elegant, a bit on the moody and introspective side, with a season cycle sub-theme interspersed (“Winter Blues” and “Summer Rising” find Alexander on tasty Fender Rhodes, another new element in his evolving sound).
