Red Garland's third session as a leader finds the distinctive pianist investigating eight standards (including "Please Send Me Someone to Love," "Stompin' at the Savoy," "If I Were a Bell," and "Almost Like Being in Love") with his distinctive chord voicings, melodic but creative ideas, and solid sense of swing. Joined by bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Art Taylor, Garland plays up to his usual consistent level, making this an easily recommended disc for straight-ahead fans.

Red Garland's Piano (1957) showcases what made the pianist a man worthy of admiration: a firm left hand provided a punchy rhythm while the right hand manufactured bold block chords or glassy arpeggios.

A huge selection of work from the Outsiders – not the group who recorded famously for Capitol in the late 60s, but an early UK punk combo who features some fantastic vocals and guitar from the young Adrian Borland! The Outsiders definitely have a sound that's in the spirit of 1977 – short, sharp, and very tight – but Borland also has chops on the guitar that most of his contemporaries do not – which means that even in the small space of these cuts, you'll get some guitar solos that link the music both backwards towards some more expansive British work, and the sound of the American scene of the 80s – when early punk groups started to learn their instruments, and solo a bit more.

René Marie's sensational 'Sound of Red' finds the singer at the top of her game, breaking new ground with her first album of entirely self-penned originals. After landing a Best Jazz Vocal Album GRAMMY nomination with her last release, Marie shoots for the stars again with 'Sound of Red', as she writes a new chapter in jazz in her patented ultra-sexy, wise, provocative and daredevil style. Her brilliance as a writer who draws equally on jazz, folk, R&B and country proves an easy match for her brilliance as a performer.
