Vocal Jazz, Pop | Label: Ashley Wilson

We always love getting to check out new music, especially when an artist presents themselves as Ashley Wilson does. Wilson is billed as an artist who is reminiscent of Norah Jones, and that was enough to peak our interest. So how does her debut Paint The Sky– which arrives March 1st hold up? The album opens with “Once In A While,” and stylistically it’s immediately clear why Wilson garnered comparisons to Jones. There’s a definite jazz sound to the song that fans of Jones will immediately find themselves bopping their heads along to. Wilson’s voice- while a bit less husky than Jones’s- is clearly pretty from the opening number. We also enjoyed the tongue-in-cheek lyrics, especially when Wilson sang, “We’ll have this back and forth duel, where sometimes the bed is hot then cool.”

It is hard to listen to a posthumous released recording without reflecting on what the world has lost in their absence. Pianist and composer Frank Kimbrough was an individual who was beloved by all who knew him. A true musician’s musician and mentor to many, Kimbrough’s legacy lives on in his work and the lives that he touched. His passing in 2020 has left a hole in the heart of the jazz world.

Carlo Maver - Volver (2019)
WEB FLAC (tracks) - 284 MB | Tracks: 8 | 61:19 min
Style: Jazz | Label: Visage Music Sas

Recorded live in May 2018 in the small church of Casola (BO), solo for bandoneon and flute, this fourth musical chapter of Maver is the transformation of a feeling, where listening outside and inside is a goal, thanks to as a listener and performer they find themselves together in a total experience. Volver is music that comes from silence and that is attracted by silence. The solo does not entertain, undress. The choice to play solo allows Maver to keep the sounds of the instruments pure, working in subtraction and leaving an almost decisive role to the pauses.
Patrick Shiroishi - I Was Too Young To Hear Silence (2023) [Official Digital Download 24/48]

Avant-Garde Jazz, Ambient | Label: American Dreams Records, Official Digital Download

A single saxophone, a glockenspiel, two microphones, a zoom recorder. These are the materials Patrick Shiroishi brought down with him late one night into the cavernous parking structure below a hot pot restaurant in Monterey Park. It was around 1:30AM; the spot was not too far from where Shiroishi grew up, a blank slate shown to him by his dear friend, Noah Klein. A vacant space for a new kind of collaboration—between saxophone and silence, between noise and reverberation, between negative space and self.

Rudy Van Gelder Remaster - 2006

This was Etta Jones' first album for Prestige Records when it was originally released in 1960 (having been recorded in a single session), and although Jones had been releasing records since 1944, she was treated as an overnight sensation when the title tune from the album went gold, hitting the Top 40 on the pop charts and reaching number five on the R&B charts. The album was inducted in the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2008.

Charlie Parker - Legendary Dial Masters (1996)  Music

Jazz | EAC rip | FLAC + CUE + LOG | Full Scans | 260 Mb
Label ~ Jazz Classics

This is a compilation of some of Bird's very best work, for Dial Records, from 2/46 - 12/47. Content-wise, it is very close to "The Complete Dial Sessions 1946-47", but minus all the outtakes (and at about half the price). If you just want to listen to the music rather than analyze and compare, buy this one. Much of Bird's work has been recompiled and reissued. This release, and "Complete", mentioned above, are probably the best selections from the Dial material. ~ Amazon
