When I first discovered C.P.E Bach’s keyboard music, I remember being completely amazed by its versatility and originality, by its inventiveness, spectrum of expression and its boldness. I was equally astounded by how much he preceded his time, that only one generation away from his father’s High Baroque, and long before the Viennese Classical School fully flourished, he experimented so widely, pushed boundaries tirelessly, and in many ways laid the foundation for what was to become the Classical style. That he influenced Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven is clear and known, but one could also argue that he foreshadowed in certain ways the Romantic period.

The essence of Jimmy Webb’s artistry is exemplified in an unlikely place on this five-disc set, which collects all of his 1970s studio albums plus a 1972 live concert and an assortment of outtakes. It’s the last of those outtakes, a duet with Harry Nilsson on Boudleaux & Felice Bryant’s “Love Hurts”, that reveals the truth.
Webb had recorded the classic ballad for his 1972 album Letters, then cut this subsequent take with Nilsson in London but decided not to use it. In the liner notes here, Webb explains he and Nilsson were “smashed out of our minds” when they cut the track, and confesses he nixed it because he felt Nilsson’s vocal was too melodramatic: “Somewhat hypocritically perhaps, I felt he was too far gone…”

With 68 tracks, most of which I thoroughly enjoy listening to, I had to buy this album as soon as I looked to see what new releases were in the shops. It was a particularly good day for me as I also bought three other new releases, so I've got a busy period of reviewing this week. Many of these tracks will be familiar to fans of 70s pop music, and not just in Britain where this compilation was released. Mainstream pop, rock, soul and disco music inevitably dominate, reflecting the tastes of record buyers at the time. I only started collecting records in 1977, but I listened to a lot of pop radio before then so I became very familiar with these songs. Along the way I had forgotten some, but in most cases I'm pleased to be reminded of them.

Chanteuse française de pop des années 1960, Annie Philippe est née à Paris le 17 décembre 1946. Elle suit des cours de danse durant l'enfance et se lance dans la chanson à l'adolescence. Remarquée lors d'une audition par le chef d'orchestre Paul Mauriat, elle signe avec le label Riviera, filiale de Barclay, et enregistre son premier disque avec le titre « Vous pouvez me dire » (1965). Sans rencontrer le large succès de Sylvie Vartan, France Gall ou Françoise Hardy, elle figure en bonne place parmi les chanteuses pop avec sa reprise du « Baby Love » de The Supremes et des titres suivants publiés chez Philips : « Ticket de quai » (refusé par Richard Anthony), « C'est la mode » qui donne son nom à son unique album original paru en 1966 et « Ça fait pleurer ». À ce titre, Annie Philipe fait partie des vedettes présentes sur la fameuse photo de Jean-Marie Périer pour le magazine Salut les copains, aux côtés des autres idoles yé-yé.

Originaires de Liverpool, les La’s bénéficient d’une renommée inversement proportionnelle à leur discographie. Un seul album (et un unique, mais gigantesque, tube, « There She Goes ») les ont pour l‘éternité installé dès 1990 en potentiels petits frères des Beatles. Depuis, les fans attendent, et espèrent.

Style: Electronic, Downtempo, Nu Jazz, Trip-Hop, Chillout | Label: Roph Recordings

A partner of the acclaimed Nujabes, Uyama Hiroto is continuing the tradition of his mentor in the Japanese Trip Hop realm. Freedom of the Son is far better than the previous A Son of the Sun to the extent that it works on the original style, but improves it to a much more heavenly level. There are elements of free jazz, rap, and the beautiful piano work Japan is always brilliant at providing for the world. Here in this concoction there is the ambience of some distant Autumn dream hidden in the Pacific.

Hyperion’s Record of the Month sees the long overdue return to the studio of The King’s Consort, under the baton of the group’s newly appointed Artistic Director Matthew Halls. Here the ensemble presents the premiere recording of Handel’s Parnasso in Festa: a unique example in Handel’s enormous creative career of a fully-fledged celebratory serenata (or Festa teatrale). This form was rare in England but had developed in parallel with opera in Italy, where it was popular for commemorating special occasions of international significance. Parnasso in Festa was written for Princess Anne’s marriage to Prince William of Orange.

Former Clearlight's leader Cyrille Verdeaux comes back, after a too long absence. Dedicated to the planet's survival, "Messenger Of The Son" (1984) displays some lyrical and romantic streamings down of keyboards. His sense of melody reminds the best passages of "Visions". "Rhapsodies Pour La Planète Bleue", from which four titles are included on this welcome Musea reissue, have originally been recorded during the year 1986.
