Album Description

Bad Blood In The City: The Piety Street Sessions is James Blood Ulmer's most recent collaboration with Vernon Reid and The Memphis Blood Blues Band. It's built around a cycle of original Ulmer songs which directly address Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath. With this album, Ulmer has delivered one of the most stirring and emotionally powerful recordings of his career. There are also a handful of classic blues interpretations that serve to further explore Katrina's sub-plot of race, poverty and struggle, including readings of Son House's "Grinnin' In Your Face," Junior Kimbrough's "Sad Days, Lonely Nights," John Lee Hooker's "This Land Is No One's Land," Bessie Smith's "Backwater Blues," Howlin Wolf's "Commit A Crime" and Willie Dixon's "Dead Presidents."

Vernon, leave your guitar at home........2007-06-06

I'm a Huge Blood fan, and love all of his music, but this record is a slight let-down. It's in no part due to James Ulmer's performance, but rather Vernon Reid's presence.
James Ulmer's strength is his droning, moody A-tuned guitar with his strong and slightly-garged voice. If you've heard "Birthright" that's Ulmer at his best.
Vernon Reid should remember to leave his guitar at home when producing Ulmer. Reid's 1,000 note-a-minute style just walks all over Ulmer. He is no blues player in the style that Ulmer is. Ulmer can play ONE note and weave it into a feeling. Vernon Reid is always in a race with himself. Combine that with the loud, overly-full production, and James Ulmer is drowned out and lost in the mix. Underneath it all is a great performance by Ulmer. But trying to listen to it through all of that noise is annoying.

Good,but just a little overproduced.......2007-05-29

Don't get me wrong! I Am a Big Fan of James Blood Ulmer. I feel he has found his calling as a 21th century bluesman;but on this record ,which has a great concept and sound,I feel is a little overproduced;too much studio and not enough of that angular,Ornette Coleman sounding Blood Ulmer guitar(unlike his last disc "Birthright" which was brilliant!)Vernon Reid should have made the production a little more sparce sounding so more of that Blood Ulmer guitar would have come thru. That being said; the compositions on this CD are great and have an important message, I hope commerically, this CD is a success for Blood;because For my ears it's his most popular sounding,blues CD. Just wish it was a little more hardcore Blood Ulmer.

i thank the boxers for this one.......2007-04-29

when i bought a tribute to jack johnson on vinyl i didn't like the music. i'm not a big fan of rock, and the heavy repetitive beat was marketed for giant speakers pulsating the music at full volume in some car where the passengers couldn't hear themselves speak or hear the music. with repeated listening over the years the music kind of grew on me.

i was curious about the sessions, and some reviewers said it was probably one of the better compiled box sets. then there was my other complaint: the numerous takes.

the sessions turned out to be a really good collection of music, containing more playing by miles davis than the tribute did, and most of his playing is melodic instead of brooding and searching. and, something i never believed i would say, all of the retakes are worth a listen.

ali is a stellar composition. maybe i missed it on another recording. if this was its first release, then i'm amazed it was kept under wraps so long.

mmmm.......2007-01-16

this is john mclaughlin and mils davis at their finest. Before miles went fully into fusion, this "jazz-rock" is quite exquisite. SUPERB!

Un altro dei capolavori del Davis elettrico nasce come colonna sonora di un documentario sul pugile Jack Johnson.......2007-01-12

A tribute to Jack Johnson è il disco chitarristico per eccellenza fino a quel punto della carriera di Davis; le tastiere di Hancock appaiono invece molto in penombra -- un chiaro segnale della tendenza sempre più forte in Davis ad assegnare un ruolo predominante alla chitarra elettrica, a scapito delle tastiere, tendenza sviluppata poi in modo definitivo e a volte quasi devastante nei dischi di psycho-hard-jazz degli anni successivi. Al sax soprano compare il giovane Steve Grossman, appena maggiorenne come il nuovo bassista elettrico Michael Henderson -- quest'ultimo a quanto pare strappato di forza al gruppo di Stevie Wonder. Alla batteria Billy Cobham, proveniente dal gruppo di Horace Silver e futuro membro della Mahavishnu Orchestra di McLaughlin, prende il posto dell'inizialmente previsto Buddy Miles, il batterista di Hendrix, che avrebbe dovuto nelle intenzioni di Davis fornire insieme al bassista un forte impatto soul al clima della registrazione, ed anche avere responsabilità compositive, ma che non si presentò alle sedute.
A dispetto di molte estatiche dichiarazioni dei musicisti, il modo in cui si arrivò alla realizzazione del disco non porta a pensare che Miles avesse le idee chiarissime sul risultato finale o che avesse tutto sotto controllo: anzi sembrerebbe che ancora una volta le sue (e di Macero) doti di improvvisatore sul campo abbiano avuto il sopravvento e, in definitiva, ragione. Perché Jack Johnson è semplicemente un altro capolavoro di Davis, ed in prospettiva storica è forse, pur nella sua "crudezza", il più grande lavoro di electric jazz mai realizzato; questo nonostante alcune imperfezioni, di cui la modalità di realizzazione del primo brano può essere un esempio efficace.

Incredibly Interesting and Great Music. Hear How Teo Put it All Together........2006-11-05

At first, when I put on the disc 1 and heard about 1/2 dozen takes of Willie Nelson, I thought to myself, "what was I thinking buying this?" As it turns out, I have only one regret: I should have purchased the smaller compact edition (still 5 discs, same documents and stories,just neater). The long box has its problems as the booklet is not attached. When I compare this to the packaging I got with The Complete Cellar Door Sessions, I realize I should have waited for the nicer packaging.

Ok, so what's so great about this? Well, if you are a musician and you are interested in Miles's electric period then this boxset is going to be very instructional. It's very interesting to see how all of the Go Ahead John takes were rolled together to make the version that appeared on Big Fun. Another nice thing about this box set is you get to hear Go Ahead John without all that auto-switching of the stereo effect that made listening to it on Big Fun simultaneously enjoyable and annoying.

In addition to Go Ahead John, you get to see how Right Off and Yesternow from the Tribute to Jack Johnson release was put together.

Even the 1/2 dozen takes of Willie Nelson are very good and worth sitting through. However, I don't think Sharrock's contributions show that he was much of a real player. I don't know much about the guy but he isn't showing me anything here. In the past, I thought the person fooling around with the echo-plex speed control on Yesternow was Chick Corea or Herbie Hancock. It's Sonny Sharrock and that's pretty much all he does. I wonder if he got paid for these sessions. If he did then Miles was robbed.

Look at the track listing and you will see there is lots of other out-take material on this release and most of it is really good stuff. I really enjoy Little High People and Airto's kazoo playing (very different from any kazoo playing you've ever heard).

Throughout the discs you'll hear Miles's raspy voice giving directions to the musicians and commenting on their playing ("that's some raunchy s*** John").

Ok, so in summation, if you are a musician and want to hear how a great and historic album from the early 70's was made then you will want to pick this up. If you are an electric Miles fan you will hear a lot of new stuff but the repetition of some of the tracks might get on your nerves unless you are trying to analyze what is going on.

The booklet is nice, there's lots of great pics and lots of good insight into Miles's recording activities and the band changes that took place during the 16 weeks over which these tracks were put together.

'nuff said. If you arent' sure, buy the long box because it's a lot cheaper. However, I do wish I'd picked up the short box version. Packaging of the short box editions in this Miles series are far superior!

For the serious fan.......2006-09-07

This collection isn't for everyone but for those who want to sit in on the sessions that turned into 'Jack Johnson' this is Christmas morning.

This two-CD set combines a pair of Ornette Coleman's Columbia LPs, Science Fiction and Broken Shadows, and adds three tracks--a new piece, an alternate take, and an alternate mix. Most of the material comes from sessions in September 1971, when Coleman surrounded himself with old associates--including the group with which he'd made his startling New York debut a dozen years earlier: trumpeter Don Cherry, bassist Charlie Haden, and drummer Billy Higgins. Also along were tenor saxophonist Dewey Redman, drummer Ed Blackwell, and trumpeter Bobby Bradford, another longtime associate. The seven musicians recorded as two distinct quartets, as a quintet with Bradford, and as a septet, while other guests contributed to still more permutations. All the musicians were deeply immersed in Coleman's musical language: the complex, sometimes jagged tunes; the emotional directness that drew on the wellspring of the blues; the sprung rhythms and melodic freedom that had first defined the free-jazz movement.

The set's first CD consists largely of quartet and quintet pieces. There are new groupings that take new directions, such as two evocative songs with the gifted Indian vocalist Asha Puthi, accompanied by a septet with two classical trumpeters and Higgins on tympani. And on "Science Fiction," the band breathes seething chaos around the poet David Henderson's voice. Much of the second CD concentrates on the septet, a group that inevitably invokes Coleman's most radical grouping, the "double quartet" that recorded Free Jazz in 1960, with five of the original members present. The pieces here are shorter, with more clearly defined compositional materials, but the collective improvisations are still bracing and the rhythmic dialogues often stunning. While Cherry and Coleman no longer worked together regularly, they shared a vision and empathy unique in jazz, and the shifting densities and internal meters of "Elizabeth" are something to behold. "Good Girl Blues" and "Is It Forever" catch Coleman layering and alternating different components--Kansas City blues, swing, bop, free, and classical--to create unique musical spaces. This is one of Coleman's strangest groupings, with his regular band joined by blues singer Webster Armstrong, guitarist Jim Hall, hard-bop pianist Cedar Walton, and a woodwind quintet. This is essential hearing, varied and intriguing music from one of the greatest architects, composers, and improvisers in the history of jazz. Stuart Broomer

A beautiful set of albums..........2005-12-10

While other reviewers have mentioned that it would be useful to hear earlier Ornette albums to have some frame of reference for this one, it's the first Coleman album I ever heard: That said, I became absolutely immersed in it. The variation created by using so many different group configurations, keeps proceedings consistantly strong and simultaneously varied. The tracks featuring the Indian vocalist are absolutely breathtaking, and Coleman's playing on these albums is at once obtuse and very catchy. While this music may be complex, it still manages to retain accessibility and warmth. This is the Coleman album I will keep coming back to.

crucial american music.......2005-01-04

this collection of music represents a groundbreaking period in modern american music. ornette put together the perfect ensemble(s) to accomplish the task and they performed beautifully. the whole record is a wonderful meditation on and sublime interpretation of the whole of american music up to 1970.

none of ornette's stuff is for the casual listener, of course, so it's worth the time and effort to peruse his earlier works to build a frame of reference for this record. i consider this to be the pinnacle of ornette's recorded work - which is not to say i don't love his later stuff. but these recordings seem to me the essence of ornette's contribution to music.

quite exquisite.......2000-05-20

this is a collection of two ornette albums that were previously unavailable on cd in the united states, Broken Shadows and Science Fiction. these two albums, comprised here as one, are lost holes in the vast Ornette Coleman discography. The instrumentation is quite ride spread, including some very interesting vocal pieces. all in all any Ornette fan should buy this and listen to it regularly. it is excellent.

long-awaited Ornette masterpiece as deluxe CD.......2000-05-07

At last! SCIENCE FICTION on CD -- 24-bit mapped, and given the full Mosaic-style treatment by Michael Cuscuna. Included are 2 alternate takes and 1 never before released track from the original 1971 sessions, along with all the material from those sessions originally released in 1982 as BROKEN SHADOWS.

SCIENCE FICTION is the first Ornette record I heard, in 1975, and I still love it. Most of it sounds quite like the great Atlantic recordings of 1959-62, with Charlie Haden on bass, either Ed Blackwell or Billy Higgins on drums, and Don Cherry or Bobby Bradford on trumpet (and all 5 on some tracks). Dewey Redman, in Ornette's working band of the time, also plays on many of the tracks. The twist is that there are several vocal tracks -- the 2 with Asha Puthli, the female pop/classical singer from Bombay, are heartbreakingly beautiful. (Some critics did not approve, but they weren't listening!) The title track features the poet David Henderson, and it truly sounds like Science Fiction. Two more vocal tracks, from BROKEN SHADOWS, are more conventional, and frankly can be safely skipped. A highlight of the set is "Law Years," one of Ornette's best known and often covered compositions (by Old and New Dreams and Ken Vandermark, among others). The variety of styles and textures made the original SCIENCE FICTION, to me, Ornette's greatest accomplishment as a cohesive album. (Be aware that many critics disagreed.) There is a wrenching intensity to every track on the original album, the first 8 of the 19 collected here, making a statement greater than the sum of the individual pieces, a testimony to Ornette's compositional vision. It is interesting to find that "School Work" is the theme used in DANCING IN YOUR HEAD, Ornette's first electric Prime Time recording from 1976. That was to be Ornette's new direction following this work, so SCIENCE FICTION stands as the last great recording before Ornette's "Second Period."

Absolutely essential!

absolutely essential.......2000-05-06

When all is said and done, these will go down as some of Ornette's greatest works. By the time he did these, he was very tight with Cherry, Haden, Higgins, Blackwell, and Redman so anything he did with those musicians was outstanding.

Some of the cuts (Civilization Day, Street Woman, Law Years, Country Town Blues) more or less follow the Atlantic model (see "Beauty is a Rare Thing")

There also are two very beautiful songs (What Reason Could I Give and All My Life) sung by a fabulous Indian singer (who later appeared on a recording by Henry Threadgill), and some more densely layered compositions (Rock the Clock, Science Fiction, Jungle Is A Skyscraper) with sizzling energy that captures the times they were recorded in.

There may be a few selections which are half-baked, but this is a box set whose purpose is to document a series of sessions.

Don't miss this masterpiece!

The best of Hi-Fidelity.......2005-05-28

This is my favorite of the series. Tough roots from start to end.

guidance's best compilation.......2004-11-29

If you're familiar with Guidance records, chances are you've got one of their Hi-fidelity Dub sessions compilations...I think they're up to number 5 or something. In fact a couple of these tunes can be found on other guidance releases, 'Horny dub' for instance.

This however is quiet different compared to those releases. Roots combination is one of the rootiest contemporary pieces of reggae/ dub to come out in recent times. It brings you back to the 1970's when Lee Perry et al were experimenting/ revolutionising dub music.

The album features a number of MC's including Sluggy Ranks, who espouses some very conscious lyrics on 'Nah Bow Down' as does Ruffscot on 'Greedy for the dollar'. There's a monstrous dub on 'Wicked a go dub it'.

Simply this a very good piece of work. The rythems are solid and the appearances of various MC's provide that rootsy feel. They don't go way over the top on the dubs but keep it nice and tight. This is my favourite Guidance record...greatness through and through.

houstonsweb1.......2003-03-19

This is a pretty good CD. This is what I call cruz-n reggae. Real nice, getting with friends, BB Q-N, or just plain jumping in your car cruz-n. It's a very good price, so get it and enjoy. All praises to Jah. Out.

Dub Inna Fine Retro Style.......2002-05-25

Well-produced, sophisticated yet rootsy dubs -- lots of good 21st century touches without sounding slick or overproduced. Bass n' drum firmly in the driver's seat with way-cool effects and riddims that will make your head bob like one of those dolls you see on car dashboards.

This is the way all modern dub recordings should be ... a deep-roots, bubbling, smoking, wallshaking successor to the classics of the 70s and early 80s. Nearly an hour's worth of slinky dreadiness. Go for it!

Great Riddims.......2002-03-27

Very good dub cd put together by the masters at Guidance. It seems like you just can't go wrong with that label. Especially the Hi-Fi dub sessions, and this one is no different.

everybody who loves funk already has the Funkadelic

Strong but with more holes than it should have.......2002-12-06

A compilation that covers something as diverse and hard-to-dig-up as funk music is a tough one to put together; there were a ton of artists doing the form 25-30 years ago, and many of them have gone unsung in later years, so theeir stuff is hard to find. Because of this we're typically subjected to collections that are inundated with the same stuff over and over again, material that could be had legally with ease from the compiling label.

This record gives us a few staples of the form, but also gives us a number of really strong rare finds. And while this was a great direction to go in, there are some very serious holes in this collection. That's the problem when you start adding some of the popular stuff: it changes the mission of the record for the listener and we expect it to reflect a more historical approach. We're left with a record that has some gems - and a record any collector or fan of funk should have - but not with necessarily the greatest record.

Pretty good for a mere 2-CD set. The form has always lent itself to box set compilations.

"The Godfather of Memphis Funk.".......2006-04-17

So it says on the back of the album cover. It's no lie; this CD is hot!! Talk about funky! I think Rufus gave James Brown a run for his money some times. Here you get 18 of his funkiest and finest. From the title track which sounds like it will never end, (and why should it?) to classics like "Itch and Scratch" and "Sophisticated Sissy." On some of these that have dance names in the title, they all kind of sound the same. Rufus announces he's back with a new dance for everyone, says what it is and how to do it. Those are "Do The Funky Penguin", "Do The Push and Pull", and "Funky Robot" among others. It's pretty cool; even if you don't know how to do these dances, just do something that makes sense. These songs definitely have such colossal grooves to them. Bass lines and drum riffs are sweet!
The CD has inlay liner notes about Rufus' biographical info and his involovement with Stax and the songs presentes. So check Rufus Thomas out. He was middle-aged when he did all these songs, but that made no difference. He still could make life a dance party and that's what this CD is all about: a dance party!

A True Upgrade.......2006-05-28

A TRIBUTE TO JACK JOHNSON never having been one of my favorite Miles Davis albums, I really didn't expect to like this boxed set much - especially when I saw how many retakes it contains. Granted, THE COMPLETE JACK JOHNSON SESSIONS does make for repetitive listening at times; and like most of Columbia's other "complete" Miles packages it's actually primarily composed of music which has nothing whatsoever to do with the album for which it is named. Chronology is clearly the chief priority here; but given the period in question (February to June of 1970) and the personnel Miles managed to assemble for these very electric sessions (Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea and Keith Jarrett on keyboards; Wayne Shorter, Bennie Maupin and Steve Grossman on reeds; guitarists John McLaughlin and Sonny Sharrock; bassists Dave Holland and Michael Henderson and drummers Jack DeJohnette and Billy Cobham), there's little to complain about. Indeed, the music on this box, performed by smaller combos within a tighter framework than that on, say, the BITCHES BREW box, exhibits a good deal more purpose, direction and energy than the extended drones which take up so much of that earlier compilation's space. The inclusion of the complete JACK JOHNSON album (which was actually pieced together from only one of these sessions and some additional fragments recorded over a year earlier) as a closer makes this set - at least for the hardcore fan - a fine summation of Miles' relentlessly funky work from the first half of 1970. Turn it up!

Perfect!.......2006-02-16

The original Jack johnson LP was my favourite Miles record. I also had an expensive Japanese CD but all this would not prepare me for what I discover here. Over these CDs one discovers the original sessions from which the record was made. This is simply wonderful. Ok sometimes it takes quite a bit of patience to sit trhough all this but it is worth the time.

Essential music in a questionable presentation........2006-02-11

In the spring of 1970, Miles Davis entered the studio a number of times, recording primarily with guitarist John McLaughlin with him. The apex of these sessions was the stunning "A Tribute to Jack Johnson", soundtrack for an underground movie about the pioneering boxing figure and a clear statement from Davis concerning his music-- the album was firmly entrenched as a jazz/rock fusion record, soaked it overdriven guitars, funky backbeats, and downright powerful playing. Typically, it was ignored at the time of its release. But the years have been kind to 'Jack Johnson', these days its regarded as one of the peaks of its genre.

And why not? Davis was playing as well as he ever did in his career-- exploring fluidity and his horn's upper register in a way he never had, and his band was pretty much all collectively destined for stardom-- McLaughlin, Herbie Hancock and Billy Cobham have all gone on to be legends. To this, add the work of producer Teo Macero-- splicing together the two tracks that made up the album from several different sessions into two seemless suites-- the first revolving around a jam session the rhythm section had while waiting for Davis (before the trumpet player entered for what may well be his most ferocious solo on record), the second around a couple vamps and themes. The net result is something that mixes spontenaeity and composition; looseness and high production, and somehow, it all works, perfectly.

And so all of this sort of leads us into this boxed set-- 17 titles recorded over a bit less than four months in the first half of 1970 filling 5 CDs. Take after take, a couple jams, some fumbling, some missed notes, all the stuff Davis and Macero didn't really want you to hear, along with a bunch more sidemen who would go on to be legendary in the future-- Sonny Sharrock, Keith Jarrett, Dave Holland, Chick Corea, Wayne Shorter and a bunch more.

I would be remiss in telling you this material isn't exciting and powerful-- it really is, it's amazing in fact, and moreso than any of the other boxed sets, it really is a peek inside the working process and unedited majesty of Davis, but it's a bit much, and it's pretty obvious why some of these takes were never released. I'd also point out that Macero has publicly denounced this reissue series as exposing things that were never meant to be heard. And really it's a dilemma for me. This is great stuff, I'm glad to have it, but it somehow feels dishonest to me, like the kind of thing that I should be trying to trade for or pick up on sketchy European and Japanese record labels, not from Columbia.

But it is really fantastic music, and while occasionally some of the takes drag a bit, all in all it's quite a set.

Still, make your own decision-- is six takes of "Willie Nelson", which ended up spliced in the middle of 'Jack Johnson', too much? Maybe, the quality is sketchy but wow, Sonny Sharrock shines like you never knew he did. Is it really critical to have a dozen takes of material that made up the studio portions of "Live-Evil" with vocalist/songwriter Hermeto Pascoal? Not for me, but then again, I'm ecstatic to have 45 minutes of "Go Ahead John". The material on here wasn't just for 'Jack Johnson', it ended up on "Live-Evil", "Big Fun" and "Get Up With It". And as we've come to expect in this series, it comes in a lovely package complete with nifty metal binding, a rather extensive set of detailed liner notes, and quite frankly, the sound is untouchably fantastic. I'll call it four stars-- five star music in questionable presentation. More than the other boxed sets, this one convinced me maybe Macero was right.

Jazz With a Knockout Punch.......2005-12-08

As somebody who came dangerously close to wearing out his cd copy of "A Tribute to Jack Johnson," this 5-disc overview of the sessions stretching from February to June of 1970 (some of which resulted in the raw material for "Jack Johnson",)was manna from heaven. "Jack Johnson" is, in many ways, the greatest fusion album ever recorded - stunning in its originality, often copied but never equaled. Through this box set, we get to hear, chronologically, how the album was created. Although only a handful of these tracks wound up on the original release, all the sessions exhibit traces of the new sounds Miles and company were discovering.

Bob Belden has done an impressive job with previous box sets in the Miles Davis series, and this is no exception. Sometimes, the liner notes (by Bill Milkowski) seem a little amateurish, especially compared to Belden's scholarly, track-by-track analysis from the "In A Silent Way" set from a few years back. But this is a minor quibble. 6 takes of "Willie Nelson," each funkier than the last one, prominently feature the late experimental guitarist Sonny Sharrock, making great noise on crude slide. Most of Sharrock's playing was edited out of the original release. John McLaughlin is allowed lots of new solo room, too, on slow blues crawls and awesomely funky extended takes of "Go Ahead, John." Another interesting development in the set is the addition of Mike Henderson on electric bass and Keith Jarrett on electric piano. Jarret's distorted freaky playing is a key ingrediant to the band Miles would put together immediately following these sessions, the so-called "Cellar Door" band (and the next box set in this series centers on exactly that, 6 discs of live shows later partially collected on "Live-Evil"). New, never-released compositions like "Ali" and "The Mask" show a new band working out an innovative blend of jazz, rock and funk - simple themes and/or vamps, repetitive rhythms, and raunchy solos.

There's enough hot stuff in here to keep any Miles fan busy for days. And his trumpet playing is as strong as any other time in his career - tough, solid, probing, unforgiving. As with other Miles box sets, this release forces the listener to re-evaluate all the received wisdom about Miles and his supposed "deterioration" after he introduced electricty to his bands. We're still catching up with Miles, 35 years down the road.

Essential for Electric Miles folk.......2005-10-30

My first exposure to Miles Davis' music were the Dark Magus and Live Evil albums. Those live sets work, despite the editing. Im not saying Teo wasn't essential to Miles' creative process, it would have been impossible without them. However, due to the time and circumstances of vinyl's limitations, plus the demands of Sony's flagging faith in Miles' saleability, Teo did some weird stuff.

I thought the original Jack Johnson recording had some good moments but was a bit restrained. McLaughlin's playing was rudimentary but had some spectacular moments. But then you get into the odd splicing in of Shhh/Peaceful and you feel truly cheated. Thus you had to buy Big Fun, Directions and his other records, andfor a long long time those were very hard to find. I still have my Japanese import discs from Tower which was the only way to get them fo ryears, before fusion became truly mainstream and Sony's big reissue campaign.

The more Miles the better, as far as I'm concerned, thank goodness the tapes still exist in whole jams. The jams are consistently great. It doesn't even sound like the songs are being developed in subsequent takes. Just variations on the theme, it plays out so much more like film music which was it's original intention, though I'm damned if I can remember any moments in the 1970 James earl Jones flick where it is actually used.

What you can finally hear in the first few tracks are the long-rumored contributions of Sonny Sharrock. For years researchers have tried to specualate on the players since there were no original liner notes. Whether the drummer is Billy Hart, Billy Cobham or DeJohnette is a minor detail. But you can very clearly hear the juxtaposition of Mclaughlin's crisp brittle attack and the acidic scratch of Sharrock. There's also a keyboard effect common at the time, possibly ring-modulated minMoog that I think is Corea. I don't believe Jarret was proficient on this. At the time (dec. 70)he played Rhodes and Farfisa.

Good Disc!.......2003-07-28

This is a good disc, with one caveat.

The singing is great, and the rhythm section is world class. These are some of the best songs ever written, and a terrific survey of blues songs/styles. "Dimples" and "Death Letter" are classic performances.

The one caveat is Vernon Reid's guitar playing. I could never tap into the music of "Living Color" -- it always seemed like someone had subtracted the rhythm. On this disc, Vernon tries to play blues guitar, and on a couple of songs he succeeds. On the others, his playing sounds like Ornette Coleman is sitting in while suffering from a middle ear disorder. This is a matter of taste, but it didn't suit me.

In summary, this disc is similar to a blues sampler in the range of the material, all of the songs swing, and the singing is great. Four stars.

Soulful singer and guitarist Tab Benoit has never made secret his devout allegiance to the Louisiana music tradition. With The Sea Saint Sessions, Benoit, ably assisted by several Crescent City stalwarts, takes his music back to the source, setting up shop at the famed hit factory to cook up a sonic gumbo that successfully recaptures the spontaneity of the classic Sea Saint sound. Benoit's guests conjure up some of the studio's old musical magic as "Big Chief" Monk Boudreaux infuses Mardi Gras Indian spirit into "Monk's Blues," Meter man George Porter Jr. funkifies "Making the Bend," and Cyrille Neville sings on his own "Plareen Man". But it is Benoit's distinctive guitar lines--somehow both supple and hard-edged--and the impeccable elasticity of his regular rhythm section that makes the music work. Most of the material is Benoit's own, although he pays tribute to Louisiana legend Guitar Slim with a take on the classic "Sufferin' Mind" and dips into the Howlin' Wolf songbook for a rendition of "Howlin' for My Darling". --Michael Point

Bayou Country Blues.......2003-12-22

I'm a brand new "Tab" fan. What I appreciate most about him is the fact that he doesn't try to blow you away every time. His guitar playing adds color and texture to his songs instead of high caliber fire power. Don't get me wrong, Tab can shake the rafters but to me, that's preferable to burning the whole house down. He's also not a one dimensional performer. His vocals are warm and expressive and it's clear that he knows how to sing. Pick up this album and enjoy some New Orleans blues, slow cooked but sizzling.

One Of His Best!.......2003-10-20

Tab Benoit's latest Mona Lisa,The Sea Saint Sessions (Telarc) once again blends Delta blues with cajun bayou spice for a sound that belongs uniquely and souly to him. I say souly because that is exactly what you will find in abudance on this barn burner of a record due largely to Tab's commanding raspy vocals throughout, but particularly on "Solid Simple Thing," and "What I Have To Do," Benoit has a liking for cutting tracks live in the studio in one or two takes which gives The Sea Saint Sessions a radiant spontaneous feel over all eleven numbers. The sparkling and very funky "Hustlin Down In New Orleans," which evokes memories of Little Feat, finds Neville Brothers guitarist Brian Stoltz exquisitely trading off licks with Benoit while the very bluesy "Monks Blues," showcases Big Chief Monk Boudreaux's gruffly smooth vocals and segues neatly into the driving beat of "Making The Bend," a high energy piece featuring George Porter's booming bass line. What I find truly amazing about the three numbers just mentioned is that they were co written and performed with the guest artists as these sessions were taking place with minimal rehearsal or refinement. Now that, ladies and gents, is spontaneity at it's finest. All but two tracks are originals, with the covers consisting of a smoking version of Howlin' Wolf's "Howlin For My Darlin," that contains a completely wicked guitar solo, and "Plareen Man," the volcanic closing number contributed by Cyril Neville who is on hand for lead vocals and percussion. Two other pieces that are thoroughly enjoyable and if they fail to get your hips shaking immediately might mean you are dead, are the album's opening frenetic tune "Baby Blue," which has Brian Stoltz sitting in and the following "Boat Launch Baby," that I can hear covered easily by any of the top zydeco/cajun bands. Backing Tab are his usual comrades, Carl Dufresne on bass and Darryl White on drums who are one of the most powerful rhythm sections it's ever been my pleasure to hear. I mean these two guys just blast through a tune like dynamite. As for Mr.Benoit.... he's positively maginificent on this outing firing off melodic runs up and down the fretboard while at times bending notes until they seem ready to break into a million pieces while singing his heart out in his slightly nasal but soulfully expressive voice. Tab Benoit has for years been grossly underrated as both a blues guitarist and singer and is finally beginning to receive the national recognition he has always deserved as both a musician and a fine songwriter. Last year's Wetlands was a great album but The Sea Saint Sessions just plain knocked me out of my socks and across the room. One of his best that should not be missed!

Tab who?.......2003-08-27

Ok, I never heard of him until I walked into a record shop and saw his CD on the end cap. So I went over and gave it a listen, and man oh man, I became an instant fan. This cd is full of Blues mixed in with some cajun beats. The guitar has a quality that is honest and true. You feel like you are in a juke joint right there with him. Needless to say I bought the cd and play it all the time. A great find! Go make the same find for yourself. You won't regret it.

As good as the "Red" Albumn.......2003-08-21

I've been a Tab fan since his first albumn. I've always felt his second albumn (What I Live For) (or the "Red Albumn" as we call it) was his best at capturing his live essence. But this albumn matches it! Tab's distinct voice and guitar really demonstrate an understanding and mastery of the blues.

For all blues lovers.......2003-07-12

If you love the blues, this is the real deal. One of my favorite Tab CD's.

I truly can't recommend this album enough.......2007-05-17

I bought this CD after becoming completely enamored with the Ticklejunk All Stars during one of their live performances at Nectar in Seattle where they absolutely killed it. Featuring original beats, funk, hip-hop, house, and acid jazz this album is an intriguing glimps into the future evolution of sound. I was admittedly disappointed when the acid jazz scene from the early 90's never took off, however, the Future Funk Sessions is a dynamic approach to the genre offering a beefed-up style that will be exciting to not only acid jazz enthusiasts but to the mainstream as well. It's already getting quite a lot of play on Seattle's local indie station KEXP and I truly can't recommend this album enough.
