Eden Regained.......2004-07-10

After Salamander Crossing's breakup, Rani Arbo and her band Daisy Mayhem went their own way. "Gambling Eden" takes a different approach than 2001's "Cocktail Swing." Whereas the previous disc focused on 20's & 30's jazz, "Gambling Eden" is more in the folk-rock-country territory of a band like Nickel Creek. One of the first records I bought as a boy in the early 60's was "Stewball" by Lonnie Donnegan. At Arbo's hands the track pulses with energy with Arbo's violin giving it a traditional feel, particularly compared with Donnegan's earlier rockabilly take, "Way out in California where Stewball was born, all the jockeys in the country say he blew there in a storm." This set contains some fine originals such as the slow melodic "Finland," "Is it raining in Finland? I want to know; It's covered up with snow & I want to see you if you're ever coming home." "Turtle Dove" is a traditional tune traced to 1835, given a great energetic rendition that will be embraced by "O Brother" enthusiasts. John McGann & Chris Moore's "Closer" is such a lovely haunting slow song polished to a shine by the Mayhem band, "The answer always came back in a tangle like vines climbing up the side of a hollow tree, Now I think that looking up & wondering is just the place I really want to be." "O Death" that appeared on the "O Brother" soundtrack by Ralph Stanley is given a haunting arrangement and impassioned Arbo vocal. "Sparrow" is a country-swing original that brings to mind some of Toni Price's great recordings. The CD takes its title from "Eve" that traces the fall in the garden, "Paradise is only what you feel, everything else is so real, Who told us we had this power? I gambled Eden in an hour." "The Farmer Is the Man" is another familiar tune given another sterling rendition. My favorite track is the uproariously energetic "Road to Heaven," "I'm gonna find my own road to heaven, I'm gonna find me mine." The CD concludes with Dave Carter's "Farewell to Saint Dolores," a turgid lament. Arbo may have felt that she was "Gambling Eden" with the new direction she's taken on this disc, but the level of success here encountered might better be termed "Eden Regained." Enjoy!

Product Description

The Montclair Women's Big Band upholds a lofty tradition of women's big bands, from the Roaring 20s, through the swing era of the 30's and 40's. With Director Ellen Seeling at the helm, the band's groovin' rhythm section and outstanding soloists smoke their way through 14 classic arrangements. The band burns on Ernie Wilkins’ rhythm tune, “The Brownsville Express,” featuring Mad Duran on alto, Christy Dana on trumpet and Allison Miller on drums. The group breathes new life into “String of Pearls” with tenor saxophonist Jean Fineberg and trumpeter Marina Garza. And Vicki Randle’s chops go way beyond her skill as the percussionist in The Tonight Show band. Just check out her vocal on “For Once in My Life.” From Sonya Jason’s alto and Tammy Hall’s piano solos on Percy Mayfield’s funky “Rivers Invitation” to Seeling’s haunting interpretation of Antonio Carlos Jobim’s “Quiet Nights,” this band can do it all. The group's first CD roars through classic jazz and blues standards. Produced by Seeling and Price, with Assistant Director/tenor saxophonist Jean Fineberg and legendary sound engineer Leslie Ann Jones, the recording also highlights vocalists Vicki Randle (of the Tonight Show Band), Linda Tillery (of the Cultural Heritage Choir) and Bay Area singing star Pamela Rose.

Customer Reviews:

An excellent big band CD.......2006-02-22

This CD sports Bay Area heavyweights such as Annelise Zamula (of Bardo and After the End of the World Coretet) on saxophone. Vocals are handled by local legends such as Linda Tillery, Pamela Rose, and Vicky Randle. For those who want to support (and enjoy the creative product of) women in jazz, this is definitely a CD to own!
