Why Not Now is a remastered reissue of an album by British jazz guitarist Ray Russell. Recorded in 1987 and originally released on the tiny Theta label under the name Childscape, Why Not Now is a unique blend of progressive jazz and space rock that manages to escape the clichés of new age music (despite the presence of some extremely dated synthesizer sounds) in favor of a calm, hallucinatory stillness that owes much to Gil Evans' '50s charts for Miles Davis. Evans, in fact, appears on the album, playing electric piano on his own composition, "The Pan Piper," and serving as the subject of the lovely closer "Sketches of Gil," completed shortly before the master arranger's death. The other ten tracks are similarly placid, built on overdubbed layers of Russell's Bill Nelson-like treated guitar soundscapes and the ambient keyboards of Mark Isham and Tony Hymas, over which Russell (and occasionally Isham, who doubles on trumpet) spins delicate, crystalline solos unencumbered by the sort of fast-fingered showiness that usually ruins this sort of album. This is not a "player" album, but it's also not quite melodically minimal enough to truly be ambient music. Perhaps the closest comparison is to David Sylvian's quiet art pop, or the post-minimalist experiments of Michael Nyman.

Ray Russell - I due esorcisti eBooks & eLearning

Posted by Karabas91 at April 29, 2019

Susan Garth è una ragazza perbene: occhi limpidi, capelli biondi, brava a scuola, tutte le domeniche a messa… Almeno fino al giorno in cui comincia a comportarsi in maniera insolita e alla chiesa non riesce più nemmeno ad avvicinarsi, o alla notte in cui si spoglia di fronte al vecchio parroco e gli affonda le unghie nella gola… Gli anni Sessanta stanno sbocciando, e i preti ormai confidano più spesso nella psichiatria che nella demonologia, ma non il vescovo Crimmings, convinto che dietro quello sguardo apparentemente innocente si nasconda il Principe delle Tenebre, il Diavolo in persona. A Susan non serve un bravo psicologo, bensì un esorcismo in piena regola e, per eseguire il rito, il prelato chiede aiuto al nuovo parroco, padre Sargent, un giovane e disinvolto prete dalla mentalità aperta e la passione per il brandy. Insieme, i due esorcisti, in un crescendo di tensione e violenza, affronteranno l'oscurità che tormenta la ragazza. Ma un'altra sconvolgente verità attende di essere rivelata. Perché se il Male ha un solo nome, può avere molti volti…

Ray Brown, Monty Alexander, Russell Malone (2002) MCH PS3 ISO + DSD64 + Hi-Res FLAC Vinyl & HR

Posted by HDAtall at Nov. 23, 2024

Before he left us in July 2, 2002, Ray Brown reigned as the king of jazz bassists for over five decades. As a disciple of Oscar Pettiford and Jimmy Blanton, Brown's sturdy tone, impeccable technique, and swinging drive propelled Ella Fitzgerald, Oscar Peterson, Milt Jackson, and countless other jazz stars to fame. On this CD, his 18th recording for the Telarc label and his fifth in his celebrated Best Friends series, Brown is joined by the young guitar wizard Russell Malone and the lyrical, Jamaican-born pianist Monty Alexander. The drumless lineup is a tribute to the groundbreaking trios Brown lead with Oscar Peterson, and the music is simply remarkable. With Alexander's flowing pianisms shadowed by Malone's articulate guitar work, Brown's deep grooves are only topped by his flawless melodic ideas.

Genre: Jazz / Label: Dot Time Records

GRAMMY® nominated vocalist Catherine Russell, when asked to characterize her new album, Send For Me, replied, "I love romance that swings." Send For Me features a baker's dozen of newly recorded tunes on her eighth album as a leader, meeting a simple exacting standard. "Songs that inspire or touch me in some way. When I find a song I like, it haunts me until I learn it." Her mission is finding songs that you might not have heard but deserve attention. Russell's deep connection to her chosen material is part of a calling. As the daughter of pioneering and legendary musicians, pianist/orchestra leader/composer/arranger Luis Russell, and bassist/guitarist/vocalist Carline Ray, Catherine Russell was born into jazz royalty. In culling material for her new album from the likes of Billie Holiday, Nat King Cole, Luis Russell, Betty Carter, Kay Starr, Joe Liggins, Earl King, Jack Teagarden, Helen Humes, Frank Sinatra, Dakota Staton, Henry Red Allen, and Louis Armstrong, the vocalist swims in familiar waters. She sings a language that comes naturally, furthering a profound legacy. Send For Me is a follow up to Russell's 2019 release Alone Together, which received a GRAMMY® nomination for Best Jazz Vocal Album, and landed on the JazzWeek year-end radio chart as the #1 most played album. "I like to invite the people in," she says of her new album, which is also her philosophy of performing live. The album is an invitation, welcoming the audience to come along on a journey.
