Stanley Jordan is back! After a string of albums lacking focus, the über-guitarist returns with a live date featuring what he does best: no-frills, tasteful jazz that's heavy on the guitar pyrotechnics. Live in New York opens with a blazing rendition of John Coltrane's "Impressions" (Jordan also includes Trane's "Cousin Mary" later in the set) that highlights Jordan's amazing technique and shows off the tidy playing of pianist Kenny Kirkland. With a solid band behind him (Charnett Moffett, bass; Jeff Watts, drums) Jordan is free to offer up his high-gloss guitar moves in a rock-solid environment. "Willow Weep for Me," "Over the Rainbow," and his own composition, "Flying Home," are offered as examples of Jordan's jaw-dropping solo work near this satisfying set's close. --S. Duda

Absolutely mesmadazzmarizingly depressing........2006-02-05

Caution: if you are spiritual, Catholic, Christian,Muslim or of any such faith that is devoted to spreading the light of truth and beauty in the midst of darkness. With respect to belief in a being of higher authority. and you are a music fan ( not to mention a guitarist) you should know that it is my fondest belief, that Stanley Jordan has engaged in some form of questionable magic? as it is obvious that he has sold his soul (like Hendrix before him) to play the way that he does (mind you the band ain't too shabby either). I have seen the man live and it is simply depressing. The fact that one individual could play the way that he does, is both inspiring and humbling, especially if you are one who picks up the same instrument as Mr. Jordan.

Very good cd.......2004-09-11

I have seen Stanley Jordan live at the Scullers, and his performance does not get better than this cd here. His appearance at Scullers failed to impress me, but this cd did it! Track 6, Willow Weep For Me is an excellent tune that he goes all out. Though a slow tune, his solos are unbelievable. Personally, I think that he is better than Joe Pass, though less consistent. Impressions, Autumn Leaves, and basically 1-6 are all good, but you lose interest after these songs, however, I would have bought the cd if it had just these 6 songs. A very good cd. I DO NOT recommend his other cd's, and his DVD Live in Montreal is so so.

Two tracks and you're knock out.......2003-04-29

Once around ten years ago I did buy Cornucopia from Stanley Jordan which comprehend few tracks from this NY concert. That was an awkward album with some tunes recorded in studio with syntethizers and electric arrangements. It was a bad idea. The magic live recorded jazz tracks and the poor more modern material didn't match. The fact is that a couple of those live jazz tracks were so good that they are still among my all time favourite jazz tunes ever .... I own almost every jazz cd published (joking, anyway more than 3000!!). Stanley's versions of Trane's Impression and Prevert's Autumn leaves define what jazz is all about. I can't explain really how good are those tunes !! Other tracks from this concert are still fantastic works, but those two man ... unbelievable. Yes they are easy tunes but the band played them at unreachable heights that night.. I want to tribute the fantastic job the entire band did that evening, but a special appreciation for the late Kenny Kirkland. He was probably the best contemporary jazz piano player, with few others, Don Grolnick, Keith Jarrett, .... few, very few. This is the only recorded material I suppose where you can hear him play seriously. A cd I can't stay too much far from.

Jazz Virtuoso.......2002-09-29

I just purchased this album, and I'm deeply impressed by his playing. I'm also just starting to get into jazz; if you are too, I highly recommend Jordan as an introduction, a brilliant perfomer!!!

Amazon.com

With 10 recordings as a leader behind him, saxophonist Greg Osby shows both musical grace and cool confidence on Banned in New York. Working acoustically in front of a small live audience, Osby and his group stretch out and explore four old classics and one new, original composition. Accompanied by pianist Jason Moran, bassist Atsushi Osada, and drummer Rodney Green, Osby plays alto and soprano saxophone in a bold, omnivorous style. On an ambitious interpretation of Charlie Parker's "Big Foot," Osby's darting alto reaches back to bebop as well as flirts with his own R&B roots. The band also does excellent work with Duke Ellington's "I Didn't Know About You" and Sonny Rollins's "Pent-Up House" before closing with a quick take on Thelonious Monk's "52nd Street Theme." --Mitch Myers

Direct from the club to you.......2002-08-07

There's a certain amount of affectation in the packaging here. The CD is deliberately packaged crudely (minimal information, grainy black & white graphics, scrawled lettering) & titled as if it were a bootleg. Fair enough: consumers are warned that sound quality is acceptable but far from audiophile. The drums are rather crackly & Jason Moran's piano is very distant. The CD is the result of a deliberately lopsided & abrupt soldering together of two continuous extracts from different sets: a nearly hour-long medleyed sequence of four tunes (Osby's own "13th Floor", & the standards "Pent up House", "I Didn't Know about You" & "Big Foot"), followed by a fade-up midway through another version of "Big Foot" & a quick setclosing reading of "52nd St Theme".

The readings of the bop themes are in some ways the most ambitious & far-ranging things here, in which the musicians only touch base with the themes & chords at their discretion. In general, as is typical for Osby albums, the leader claims the vast majority of the solo space, & so things are a bit lopsided, but there's no denying his fertility of invention. "Big Foot" is I think the best track, which gets into Dolphyish territory in its combination of bluesy bent tones & far-out harmonic thinking. It's extremely impressive. Oddly enough on the 2nd, truncated version of "Big Foot", Osby sounds very close to Anthony Braxton--not a musical influence I'd have usually suspected. -- Moran is to my taste not in his most interesting form, though I find it hard to make out what he's doing sometimes--he is very fond of repetitively seesawing over the same notes. He's perhaps most effective on the Ellington ballad (where one can also best make him out).

A very good album, though I think the sound quality remains something of a caveat. It's an album that has something of a hardboiled vibe to it I'm not sure I quite like, but it's nonetheless very accomplished music.

A great performance.......1999-05-26

This is one of Osby's best recordings. It has power, variation, directnes, feeling, good communication, in short, almost everything which qualifies for a great performance. Osby seems to be more comfortable live than in a studio atmosphere. Unfortunately, the date (year) of recording is not given.

The sound of excellence. .......2007-03-26

The title to this review refers to the incredibly melodic lines Thad played here. His trumpet style was extremely light and melodic and he was perfectly in control of his bebop chops. The sound of excellence. Overall his playing was very balanced of great artistic quality and fully entertaining. This session from 1956 is quite good. The presence of Tommy Flanagan e Kenny Burrell are welcome. Their solos are great, equal in value and in their Jazz relevance to what Thad himself played here. Among the tunes I point out the excellent standard "Little girl blue" which Thad played here with an incredible tone, stating the melody with impressive naturality and giving it true life. Unfortunatly this tune lasts only a couple of minutes. I'd be glad to hear a fuller rendition of this tune that I really love ... But the other songs are the most interesting in the end and the ones that give the session its particular light quality. I'm talking about the opener, "Scratch", "Tariff" and "Zec" all original lines from Thad's pen. They're more bebop than hard bop. They are melodic and challenging. But the sense of lightness won't go away even if Thad choose to play faster tempos and more adventurous lines like in the last tune "Zec". Thad was near Clifford Brown's style. Very technical and very lyrical at the same time. His sound bright, full and absolutly spectacular. Very balanced in his musical choices, for an overall sound that was ... the sound of excellence.

Album Description

As the Seventies dawned, the Jim Morrison fronted Doors made Light My Fire one of the seminal rock anthems of the age. But while many record buyers might have thought that Morrison's original could never be topped, a certain José Feliciano not only made a cover but sent it soaring into the charts. While the blind Puerto Rican born singer may never have achieved the iconic status of Mr Morrison, many, especially those for whom the music is more important than the image, would argue that he had a far better voice.

While his heritage was decidedly Latino, José, though not a soul singer, most decidedly sang from the soul, as even the most cursory listen to this collection will attest. A major artist in the American mainstream, in Britain and much of the rest of the world, he has been a long-time superstar in the Spanish-speaking world.

Live At The Blue Note was recorded in New York and features a set including Jose's best known numbers.

As the dean of modern Cuban jazz pianists, Jesus "Chucho" Valdés, the founder of the supergroup, Irakere, has been wowing listeners for years with his Caribbean keyboard wizardry, which combines the power of McCoy Tyner, the brilliance of Art Tatum, and the poetry of Bill Evans. Recorded live in Manhattan, this concert date shows Valdés's pianistic gifts shining through magnificently. His musical vista crosses several frontiers: from the beautiful boleros"Besame Mucho" and "Delirio," to the clavé-rhythmed "El Manisero" and the ballad "Somewhere over the Rainbow." On this date, Chucho Valdés claims the piano literature of at least two worlds and makes a lovely, fluid portrait of it all. --Eugene Holley Jr.

Customer Reviews:

Not music.......2006-08-02

I bought this album because he was part of a great latin jazz ensemble and I felt like some good music. Boy was I wrong! This album is full of rambling through the keys, jumping off the melody to perform excentricities, to then come back to a tired song.

It is exasperating having to wait for him to finish his showing so you can listen to the music. I bought it based on the sample bit and my gosh can he play with emotion but after he gets bored with what is in the sheet he just leaves you hanging
to go play.

He literally decomposes the music to then bring it back together. It is dissapointing.

Waste of Time Deux.......2005-09-29

I say "Deux" because my review of his album "Solo Piano" would apply to this album as well. There is none of the haunting lyricism which he displayed in "Claudia" with Arturo Sandoval. There is none of the genuine Cuban beauty as in "Cenizas" with Omara Portuondo. There was plenty of running up and down the keyboard with lots of "brujo" and "flash" Good for the tourist trade, but hardly memorable.

Live in New York.......2002-10-21

I must agree with the unfortunately unsigned message from "A music fan" called "Chill out, Chucho". I do not like anonymus...
I gave him a 5 star because he has big hands, play great,extend himself to new sounds and arrangements, and he's Bebo's son; but he abuses and leaves the tune behind to perform his extravagances. Definitely, that's his style. But the tune takes 25% of the performance, the rest is Chucho's descargas; with percussion it will have less monotony.
Listen to his father Bebo, and you'll have small descargas but the purity and integrity of the melody remains more.

chill out chucho.......2001-12-15

Half brilliance, half wankfest. I just wish they he wouldn't mix the two on every track. Unfortunately he chooses to display his monster chops in a very unmusical way that detracts from the MUSIC. You can almost hear the audience wishing he would stop abusing the piano and continue with the tune. But the rest is just fantastic. I'd love to hear him play a set without all the fireworks, it's unbecoming. Tatum was positively restrained in comparison.

All you'll ever need!.......2001-08-29

If you're wandering the wilderness looking for the real great piano album, Congratulation! Your journey has finally ended! And you know what? It is REWARDED only sweetly! You'll feel the absolute power and technique of the one great pianist. However, the really great thing is, you can feel his lyricism at the same time! p.s. The greatest album I'd ever seen before this one was Keith Jarrett's Koln Concert. And now I dare to say Chucho is more than Keith. Sorry, Mr.Jarrett....But that's the truth, I can't help it.

Ornette's "Hidden" Gem.......2004-02-28

I say "hidden" because Ornette fanatics have always known about this record and it's magic. However, to people just discovering Ornette this one tends to fall beneath the cracks. This point of view is a shame as everyones playing is coherent,ever shifting, and swinging. Dewey's solo intro into Garden of Souls quite frankly is worth the record alone.

Four great souls & soul to spare.......2003-08-19

Ornette holds on to Dewey & borrows Jimmy Garrison & Elvin Jones from Trane's side of the tracks for some steamy blowing sessions (see Love Call). The disciplined playing of Jimmy & Elvin keep the horns from wandering too far out in these riff driven compositions. No attempts are made to disguise the Southwest boogie 'n' blues roots. An exceptional one-time quartet collaboration. "Garden of Souls" indeed. Four great souls & soul to spare. Essential Sixties improvisational music.

Bob Rixon

Great Late 60s Jazz.......2000-07-08

Recorded on the same dates in 1968 as "Love Call," "New York Is Now" pairs Ornette with Dewey Redman (yes, Joshua's father) on tenor sax, and two-thirds of the late 'Trane quartet (Jimmy Garrison and Elvin Jones). Tracks "The Garden of Souls" and "Broad Way Blues" are the stand outs, with Ornette and Dewey taking flight. My reservation at awarding a fifth star for this recording comes from the fact that this "second" pianoless quartet just doesn't quite measure up to the Atlantic group of the early 60s (Cherry, Haden and Higgins). Despite the fact that Garrsion and Elvin feed the group creative foundations to build upon, it just seems to me that Ornette is running out of new ideas. Perhaps this is why he made such drastic changes in a few years time.

Did you other reviewers ever even LISTEN to this?.......2007-06-26

Don't get me wrong, DG is in my opinion the greatest guitar player there ever was. He mastered several genres on guitar and could change from one to the other at the drop of a hat. Danny does everybody....but nobody does Danny. I've got most all of his official releases and a few bootlegs also and am pretty well informed as to DG.....but I don't understand one thing:

Why does no other reviewer bother to tell you that this is a pure jazz CD that is featuring Joshua Redman on horns and that Danny is audible on only three of the tracks? Yeah, he does his thing for those three tracks, but all in all, this is NOT really a Gatton CD and you won't hear much of him on this one. Also, this is REAL jazz - that three cups of coffee on an empty stomach, shaky handed - nerve jangled stuff that is impossible to relax to.

Just wanted to inform ya about what no one else would. I gave my copy to a Redman fan and he loved it - not my cup of tea.

A masterpiece.......2007-02-08

Of the many albums I have from Danny Gatton, this one is perhaps my favorite. This cd really puts Danny in a pure straight ahead jazz atmosphere and he preforms flawlessly. Danny's technique has always been such a mystery with his use of octaves, tremolos, double stops and lush chords. These are always preformed with a clean sound which is so refreshing from the typical shred masters of today. It is interesting to me that so many modern players seem to ignore these other aspects of virtuosity in the pursuit of just blinding speed. The other players all do a stellar job and compliment each other wonderfully. I am instantly transformed into New York's metropolis listening to jazz street musicians and smoke filled rooms of big band music. The last track "One for Lenny" is particularly moving and inspiring. I think I enjoyed this version even more than his version on "The Untouchable". A true gem from a lost giant.

A tour de force .......2006-11-22

The original concept of New York Stories was to bring a diverse selection of musicians together in the studio, record the jam session, and repeat the process with different players on subsequent volumes. The other volumes never happened, but this recording is one of the most exciting jazz discs I've ever heard. Those assembled on this gathering are: Danny Gatton (guitar), Bobby Watson (alto sax), Roy Hargrove (trumpet), Joshua Redman (tenor sax) on his recording debut, Franck Amsallem (piano), Charles Fambrough (bass), and Yuron Israel (drums). Each musician, less Redman, brought a composition to the session where it was recorded in the least takes possible, to create a spontaneous sound that is stellar! Unfortunately, this is currently out of print, but if you have never heard this and enjoy these artists, you owe it to yourself to seek out this masterwork.

Some People Just Don't Get It.......2006-09-08

As someone who knew Danny Gatton casually, I think his playing hardly needs defending, no matter what genre he chose to take on. But the text of "Disappointed" is a prime example of that dried-out, bloodless yen for conformity that marked the decades prior to the 90s among jazz "purists". Those who considered themselves "true" jazz afficianadoes tried relentlessly to shove the form into a mold and, predictably, it never worked. The pure nature of jazz, more than any other form of music, is change, and Danny Gatton will go down in guitar history as almost the "missing link", bridging rock, country, rockabilly, and jazz. I can only feel sad for anyone who hears what he's done in this context, with these players, and is too closed-off to appreciate it. One of the previous reviewers said it was fortunate that Gatton tried to sound like no one but Danny Gatton. Amen and Bless You. Danny's creativity, chops, melodic sense, rhythmic feel, and phrasing were certainly up to the task and the completely inappropriate attempt to compare him to Jim Hall simply slights two great guitarists. The Lenny Breau tribute is, I think, one of the most lyrical, moving, and informed pieces of jazz guitar chordal composition I've ever heard and his interplay with Redman and Hargrove throughout the disc is breathtaking. If he takes the jazz purists a little outside the box, good on him. Most could benefit vastly from being forced out past the edges of their tiny confines. Danny did just that in every genre and the music was always the better for it. What a player. What a loss.

Stunned by the two star review..............2006-07-02

This is by far one of the best examples of modern jazz ever recorded.It pays important respect to where jazz came from in the first place (blues) and explors the possibilities always present in this venue. The reviwer who gave a scant 2 star review knows little about jazz. One of those cats that digs the same old tunes done over and over like classical music, no doubt you'll find some Kenny G in his collection and confuse that with jazz as well.

Not being able to hear the guitar in the lower registers--lol. Oh well, one should not depend on BestBuy for all our electronic needs!

This cd is a classic if for no other reason than the fact that these cats will never play togather in the line up on the CD ever again. And they all all huge artist now. This was recorded when no one knew who any of these guys. So count yourself lucky to own it and enjoy.In reguards to the guitar playing on the CD i can only say that I am happy Danny Gatton didnt try and "sound" like anyone but Danny Gatton. His playing is amazing and is what makes this recording so fresh (telecaster bad jazz guitar choise, please! tell that to Mike Stern).
