When a pop song soundtrack truly captures the essence of a movie, you know a lot of care went into the cut selection. It's a cinch that something like a Cameron Crowe soundtrack is always going to pass the test, but what a delightful surprise that Roll Bounce offers such a charming and witty set that's entirely in keeping with the movie's own enchanting spirit. The mix is about equally divided between straight period tunes (Roll Bounce unfolds in and around the '70s roller-disco craze) and updates of classics from the era. The old numbers are all winners that, again, seem chosen with loving consideration both for appropriateness to the scenes they accompany as well as for the attention they deserved (though may not have received) at the time. In addition to Chic's ubiquitous "Le Freak," lesser-known '70s gems include the funky soul of Johnny "Guitar" Watson's "Superman Lover," and the wistful groove of Bill Wither's languorous, superproduced ballad, "Lovely Day." Some of the updates: an overly-boogified version of Kool and the Gang's "Hollywood Swingin'" with Jason Kay of Jamiroquai doing his best Kool impersonation. To keep the contemporary crowd happy, Keith Sweat is represented with the lush ballad "I Wanna Know Your Name." And there's a hotter-than-ever cover of Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" from Michelle Williams. Beyonce also makes an appearance with her loving cover of the ethereal, "Wishin' On a Star." The least successful "update" is a distinctively 21st century reimagining of the disco mainstay "Boogie Oogie Oogie," which gains little from the combo of house-rap and crooning by Brook Valentine, Fabolous, and Yo Yo. But in essence, Roll Bounce is a terrific mix of old, new, and some stuff in between that makes a perfect companion to the film.--Ted Fry

Album Description

With the soundtrack to the film "Roll Bounce," Mathew Knowles has assembled a timeless CD that booms with the heat of summer and the memorable sound of the '70's. Featuring classic originals and dynamic remakes by contemporary artists such as Fabolous, Brooke Valentine, and Yo Yo (giving more bass to Boogie Oogie Oogie); Michelle Williams (covering Al Green's "Let's Stay Together") Keith Sweat (tackling "I Wanna Know Your Name") and Beyounce (with a sultry interpretation of "Wishing on a Star"), the "Roll Bounce" soundtrack represents the best in music then and now.

Sad Sad Sad.......2007-06-25

Many, many thanks to the French guy for posting the songs and original artists. I just finfished watching the movie and was so pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it, being 33 years old! It made me want to find my old skates and lace 'em up and zoom around my block at 12:30am! ha ha... What a disappointment to look up the soundtrack and see how lame it is with all the remakes and so few of the great songs from the movie! I will be downloading the songs for sure.

great cd.......2007-05-13

I purchased this product for a friend who just loved the movie "Roll Bounce". The cd was in very good condition and played well.

Good Funky Music.......2007-05-08

I enjoyed this CD and would recommend it. I was glad I was able to find this CD on the Amazon website. Good music and brings back memories!

Roll Bounce.......2007-03-26

Did not like it, was not what I expected, I thought they were going to be the orginal artist on this soundtrack.

Roll Bounce.......2006-11-14

I thought the soundtrack would have more of the actual songs that were featured in the movie, like greatest dancer by Sister Sledge. Also I would have preferred to here the original artists of the songs.

One of the few lineups to make the leap from 1980s "hair band" into long-term semi-respectability, Bon Jovi's eighth studio album is somewhat true to the band's pop-metal roots, though Bounce is ultimately mellower and more theatrical than previous outings. "Undivided" might be a Tom Waits number, all gravelly vocals and booming drums hinting at a dark hipness before kicking into a commercial, lush chorus. Still, it's got a pleasing edginess, as does the toe-tapping, mechanized feel of "Everyday." Jon Bon Jovi's forays into film have clearly influenced Bounce. "You Had Me from Hello," the title nicked from Jerry Maguire, is spare, poignant, and gentle, while "The Right Side of Wrong" references Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and has a piano-heavy Springsteen-meets-Billy Joel feel. Typical ballads like "Joey" and "All About Loving You" also populate the album, which often feels like a singer-songwriter outing, or a movie soundtrack, rather than an album by a veteran rock band. Some of Bounce's bouncier tunes may still appeal to the now-middle-aged fans of the band's "Livin' on a Prayer" era, while the melodrama marking much of the album might lose those who prefer headbanging over Bon Jovi's more mellow and grandiose musical musings. --Katherine Turman

GOD THEY ROCK!!!.......2007-02-17

Words cannot describe how awesome BON JOVI is!!! I am their #1 fan and no other group in this world produces such quality / entertaining / heartfelt music. I RECOMMEND YOU BUY BOUNCE and ALL OF THEIR CDs!!!

Best Effort to Date.......2006-06-30

I'm going to go out on a limb here. I think this is Bon Jovi's best album to date. The song writing is top notch, they have defintly grown as muscians. My favorite song is Right Side of Wrong followed by Joey. I can't find a flaw in this album what-so-ever. This is one of my favorite bands of all time and they just seem to be getting better with time. Even my kids are becoming Bon Jovi fans and they really dig this disc. If you don't have it, you should give it a try. A solid, solid cd.

Worth buying for the single...but not much else........2006-03-09

I was disappointed by this, especially after Crush. It's not their strongest album by far, but I did enjoy a couple of the tracks. The title track is worth a listen, if nothing else.

Bon Jovi is a great studio band, but I feel like in recent years their albums have been weakening in favor of an extremely strong stage show. They're incredible live. The studio performances sound over-produced, while the raw and charismatic onstage versions of the same songs are simply amazing.

Good listening album.......2006-02-28

This may not be a 5 star album, but it is still very good. Bon Jovi usually has 5 or so songs per album that just make me go 'WOW!!!" This album does not have that, it is just loaded with really good, nice listening songs! Mostly uptempo, Pop music! This will be a good album just to pop in when you are relaxing around the house!
My Two favorite songs are "Right Song Of Wrong" and "Open All Night." These songs do make me go 'WOW!" They are super ballads with a lot of emotion. The title track is a very fun song, uptempo and lively.

Yet another great cd of theirs @}->---.......2006-01-22

Bon Jovi are my all time favourite group. I've loved them from the start back in the 80's. The reason they are still around today is because their fans still love them because they keep producing brilliant cds. This is another great cd and I still listen to it. Love Me Back To Life is my favourite song on here, but they are all good and whilst they do have similar sounds for many of their songs, the thing that separates them all is their lyrics. Jon and Richie together are superb writers and although Everyday is the one hit from this cd, if you go buy it, you will find your own hits on here. All good songs.

hey look, another 5 stars!.......2006-06-16

it's worth it though. this CD is filled with trance/techno music that i have never heard of with exception of a couple of songs. i love all three of the Hacker soundtracks because they all have a variety of great music by some of my favorite artists. go ahead and grab this if it sounds like your cup of tea. it's worth a listen.

No ordinary 'inspired by' CD.......2006-05-24

While I usually feel hesitant to purchase 'Inspired by' CDs, I was pleasantly surprised to find that this CD topped the original Hackers CD. The music on this one was as good and even better! I believe none of the songs were actually in the movie, but the music is similar and full of energy and thump.

A great addition to the collection. If you liked this one or the original hackers, you should also look to purchase hackers 3 as it was my favorite of all series.

Awesome CD.......2005-01-25

If you like electronic music and liked the hackers soundtrack, buy THIS volume. It has a very good selection of music, and not so common tunes from the artists involved. If you are an electronic music fan it's quite possible that you have already many tracks of the first volume. I can't say the same thing about volume two, which in my opinion has a far better selection.

Honestly... buy it NOW. You won't regret it.

Great Soundtrack - if you like Techno.......2004-04-27

I love techno, so I really got into this Album. The mix is excellent, and it makes great music for a party. But if you don't like hard-core techno like Prodigy, you probably won't enjoy this album. Warning: if you play this in the car, you're likely to drive 15 miles over the speed limit! :)

One of my favorite soundtracks.......2003-09-05

"Hackers" may have been a not-so entertaining movie (to me) but the music that went along with the film was and still is awesome. I only have the first two volumes. I like the original soundtrack slightly more but the second volume is quite good. Either way, "Hackers" has some of the hottest techno acts today, from Prodigy to the legendary Orbital. A former roommate owned "Hackers 2" and I immediately fell in love with it. Gotta love the Emirion Mix of Prodigy's "Firestarter". I wasn't big on the original version of "Firestarter" but I thought the Empirion Mix gave the song a much added energy that the original version was lacking. Plus the remix is a lot more danceable than the original version. "Hackers 2" was my first introduction to Brian Transeau (aka BT). The same can be said about Chicane. I just loved Luce Drayton's "To Be Loved" (Disco Citizens R+D Edit). Luce reminds me quite a bit like dance diva Jan Johnston. I wasn't really wild about the intro to Orb's "Toxygene" but once I got passed the samples, I got into the actual song. I just could have lived without the cluttered noises in the beginning. I think Leftfield's "Original" is one of the sexiest songs around thanks in part to Curve's Toni Halliday. "Original" certainly has a trip hoppy element to the song. I wasn't really crazy with the original version of David Bowie's "Little Wonder" however I thought the Danny Saber Dance Mix made the song much more interesting (just like the Empirion Mix of "Firestarter"). I wasn't too big on Scooter's "Fire". It just wasn't one of my favorite songs on the cd. Overall "Hackers 2" certainly is one of my favorite soundtracks that uses today's hottest techno acts around.

Review by Ken Dryden, All Music Guide.......2007-05-11

Review by Ken Dryden, All Music Guide
The Hot Club of San Francisco is more than a tribute band re-creating the recordings of Django Reinhardt, Stéphane Grappelli and the Quintette du Hot Club de France; the group covers pieces from many different eras never performed by the group which inspired them. On their tenth CD, Yerba Buena Bounce, the Hot Club of San Francisco, which has identical instrumentation to the French group (lead guitar, violin, two rhythm guitars and a bass), leader Paul Mehling, violinist Evan Price and the rhythm section swing like mad in their updated treatment of the QHCF's speeding locomotive represented by "Mystery Pacific" and the brisk, chugging "Black and White." But they also successfully convert modern pop songs into gypsy swing material, such as the Beatles' ballad "I'm Happy Just to Dance with You" (adding Seth Asarnow on bandoneon) and Norman Gimbel's "Sway" (which adds mandolin master David Grisman). Mehling proves himself as a composer as well, contributing the upbeat "Number Two" and the tender "Lullaby" (the latter adding both Asarnow and Grisman). If that's not enough, Mehling adds campy vocals to "Gong Oh" and "Some of These Days." Fans of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli owe it to themselves to investigate these swinging, beautifully recorded sessions by the Hot Club of San Francisco; gypsy swing is very much alive in their hands!

Sure-fire album by the Hot Club of San Francisco.......2007-04-13

"Yerba Buena Bounce," the newest album by Paul Mehling's Hot Club of San Francisco, really stunned me, though I have long been aware of this fine band. This album is a must for any fan of Gypsy jazz, or of "old jazz" in general. It has the right spirit, great execution, and vibrant recording methods.

First, the acoustics generated at legendary Fantasy Studios are as good as it gets. One feels throughout that he's seated right before a live bank of hot guitars playing in perfect unison, as in the old Parisian haunts of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli. You've got to hear the sound of the guitar wall on "Tickle Toe" and the brightness of the horns played by friends who sat in for "Some of These Days."

Paul Mehling has always had a classic "Django band," with his lead guitar, two accompanying guitars, a solo violin, and bass. Though he has tweaked the band a bit in the past twenty years or so, this classic format has usually prevailed and it reaches its zenith in this recording. Paul's own playing is superb as he romps over some of the brisker and more difficult Django tunes, like "Mystery Pacific," "Rythme futur," and "Black and White."

Evan Price's viloin lead on Pres' "Tickle Toe" is superb, and just when you think it can't get get any better than that, he launches into a swinging chorus or two of "Black and White." Evan has been a stalwart in Paul's band for a long time, bowing with a boppish flair that just ain't that easy on violin. And for fans of the double bass, Ari Monkres is a never-fail chord-keeper who gets an overdue break on "Stardust," where he takes the lead.

There are two tunes on the CD that seem to me inherently infelicitous,
Dean Martin's saw "Sway (With Me)" and Henry Busse's "Hot Lips," yet the Hot Club makes good sense out of them. I would have said that "Hot Lips"--much like Clyde McCoy's "Sugar Blues"--was a one-man, one-band, one-time song. Yet played by this solid band, "Hot Lips" bobs along, sort of an upside-down "J'Attendrai," which HCSF has in fact recorded elsewhere. With the addition of Dave Grisman's mandolin, the minor chord sequences on "Sway" sound as if they they emanate from a Gypsy camp.

Leader Mehling is a fine composer. On this CD, his "Number Two" and "Lullabye" are really noteworthy. "Number Two" is a typical Paul, where the tempo is brisk and there are lots of surprises, as in stops and starts and changes from minor to major. "Lullabye" represent's Paul's other side: a lovely, wistful ballad on a par with his earlier "Giselle."
Paul sings on "Some of these Days," and is in fine, humorous form on Paolo Conte's "Gong Oh."

Speed and instrumental tours de force seem to be the sine qua non of most Gypsy bands. And that is here. But what always impresses me with Paul's band is that everyone plays with good tone quality and intonation. This album ain't no dog. In fact it is four paws up--and a tail and a muzzle. And a swooping canine bow to the grooving rhythm guitarists!

Gong Oh has arrived, and so has the Hot Club of San Francisco.......2007-04-08

The reverence gypsy jazz musicians all feel for Django Reinhardt, the inventor and perfecter of the idiom, makes them step cautiously into innovation, and that has served the culture well...and the Hot Club of San Francisco has always had the tightest grip on what the authentic guts of the sound require. As the pre-eminent American gypsy jazz ensemble, HCSF triumphs with Yerba Buena Bounce, preserving that 1930's sound while propelling gypsy jazz well into the 21st century.

On their 2005 release, Postcards from Gypsyland, the HCSF set new, high standards for themselves or anyone wishing to enter the game: in recording quality, professionalism, and fidelity to the gypsy jazz idiom, most curious because the geologic pace of its evolution that never seems to detract from its endless energy. If Postcards set out to impress, Yerba Buena Bounce finds the group even more comfortable in their musical skins; it's more a session where they found great material and arrangements and decided to just have some fun, play great. The result is music that impresses even more.

Paul "Pazzo" Mehling, the founder and leader, sticks to what has always worked well before, and concentrated on doing it better than he ever has: four Django tunes, and classics from Bechet, Carmichael, Lester Young, Lennon/McCartney, and as always, some sparkling originals. Reinhardt's Mystery Pacific, the opener, draws you into the fun and magical space of gypsy jazz freedom, impeccably recorded, authentically reproduced. On the Beatle's I'm Happy Just To Dance With You (yes, the only Lennon/McCartney tune sung by George!), the melody is re-phrased to fit the Hot Club's mien, but HCSF enhances and deepens the original sentiment, treating it not just as a melody, but capturing the whole romance of the early Beatles, and breathing new life into an old tune that makes this more than a reminiscence. Sway is one of two tunes that feature David Grisman on mandolin, and Pazzo's solo has an exceptional quote from Suicide is Painless, that is simultaneously hilarious and sublime. Grisman returns, along with Seth Asarno on bandoneon for Pazzo's 'Lullabye,' to which they both bring a delicate, tender touch.

Of course, the whole band swings from head to toe, but shout outs must go to Evan `Zeppo' Price, whose violin playing consistently takes tuneful flight, yet is always locked in to the the ensemble rhythm...this is great jazz playing. On Tickle Toe, his playing and the SOUND evoke the great Duke Ellington Jazz Violin Session with Ray Nance, Svend Asmussen, and Stephane Grappelli . Reinhardt/Grappelli's 'Black and White' features the quintessential Pazzo solo, where one of Reinhardt's arpeggio techniques, usually used for a three or four bar flourish, is taken to delightful extremes for what seems like an entire chorus.

And the recording: the combination of Reference Recordings persnickety microphone technique and the underground chambers of the Fantasy recording studios in Berkeley worked like a charm. While audiophile recordings will often obsess on brilliance and clarity to the point of sterility, the recording on this album is transcendently natural. The instruments sound, not crystalline and clean, but like MUSIC, with all the warmth left in and nothing in between. The naturalness of the sound occupies that sublime and elusive middle ground between the technical advantages of a studio and the warmth of a live recording.

There's plenty more to enjoy here, from the heebie jeebies of 'Rhythme Futur,' the jamming of 'Borneo,' Pazzo's gorgeous reading of Django's 'Improvisation #2' that closes the set, and an absolutely amazing bonus cut, Paulo Conte's 'Gong Oh,' that will have you reaching for your absinthe and cigar, bumping up with the great gypsy culture that has blessed us with a unique jazz form that only grows more enduring and more exciting, due in no small part to the raucous, sweet-tight sounds of the Hot Club of San Francisco.

For much of the twenty years he's been on the scene, trumpeter, film composer, and educator Terence Blanchard has been unfairly compared to Wynton Marsalis. But this time around, Blanchard delivers his turbo-charged, neo-bop to a new crew of young turks. His band includes the new-thing drummer Eric Harland, tenor saxman Bruce Winston, and West African guitarist Lionel Loueke. The music on this CD is far more open than Marsalis's, as evidenced by Blanchard's beautiful rendering of Ivan Lins' bossa nova "Nocturna," and a hip-hop friendly take on Wayne Shorter's "Footprints." Blanchard also revives a couple of tunes from his previous recordings. Throughout, Terence Blanchard's tone is strong and true, in its own sweet and swinging way. --Eugene Holley, Jr.

Album Description

The timing could not be better for Terrence Blanchard's Blue Note debut release, Bounce. At age 41, Terence Blanchard joins fellow label mates and friends who, like him, have matured into modern standard-bearers, each with their own take on jazz tradition and their own particular interests. With Bounce, Blanchard convenes a diverse group of talented young musicians, all of whom help highlight the many facets of his musical vision.

The music on Bounce doesn't stay in one place, and it exemplifies Blanchard's style, which prompted People Magazine to comment: "Blanchard's virtues spring from his sense of restraint. The joy is in the tease!"

Blanchard has had successes in film music, orchestras and education, and of course as a jazz musician and bandleader. "Nothing can beat being a jazz musician, playing a club, playing a concert," he says. "When I stood next to Sonny Rollins at Carnegie Hall and listened to him play, that was it for me."

Spontaneous Groove Unleashed.......2007-01-27

I was drawn by the arrangement of Footprints on this album...think it's one of the best I've heard in a long time of hearing Footprints played in so many different ways by so many different artists, both local &
well-known. The rest of the tracs are smokin' too though. I'm pleased my attention was caught by his playing, he's not afraid to express himself & goes above & beyond the "comfort zone" so many musicians seem to settle into.

Blanchard's best.......2007-01-06

As an earlier reviewer stated, Blanchard has recorded a number of fine albums, but this is the best. The compositions and arrangements are strong, the ensemble playing is flawless, the solos--from all players--range from good to mind-blowing. This album finds the sweet spot between adherence to tradition and openness to modernity.

Please ignore those who say that a couple of the cuts sound like smooth jazz; they don't. The most you could say is that a couple of the cuts bear a superficial similarity to smooth jazz, in the same sense that some of Pat Metheny's music bears a superfical similarity to New Age. But if you can't hear the difference between Terence Blanchard and Dave Koz, or the difference between Pat Metheny and Yanni, then God help you.

Very Good, Not Great.......2005-07-12

For clarification, if Amazon provided half stars, I'd give this three and a half.

All the discussion about Mr. Marsalis is unnecessary. He and TB are both contemporary Jazz trumpeters but that's where the similarity ends.

This is a fine session, the band is loose throughout and there's a very good selection of songs here, half of them TB originals and half of them covers (though no "standards"). On a couple of songs the playing almost moves a little too close to Smoothe Jazz territory for my comfort. However, for example on "passionate Courage", Aaron Parks' excellent piano playing salvages the song.

Altogether an enjoyable listen, though by no meams a classic. (Thankfully Mr. Blanchard avoids the tendency to include exercises in screeching dissonance to obtain "credibility" among some of the critical circles.)

Good, but not great..........2003-12-17

The compositions on this album are great. The musicians too, are very good - especially drummer eric harland and pianist aaron parks but blanchard's playing leaves a LOT to be desired. First of, the horns on this recording sound like they were recorded in a bathroom or echo chamber - the reverb is just too much. Secondly, blanchards playing seems less than inspired and frankly I thought I'd enjoy the album more if his solos were cut out. I won't articulate why I feel that way - it's only a matter of opinion, after all, aye? Ultiamtely the CD over all is pretty strong though. Again, the compositions are great and sound quality is very good too.

sound of beauty.......2003-11-02

A brilliant recording. He has always been good and gets better. It's a pity that he does not get the attention that is unfairly given to Wynton. Wynton should learn from Terence about openess and creativity. I will repeat that Wynton should use his mouth to practise and play rather than spew his usual mantra. Any new trumpeter should follow him and not Wynton on how to be a good player. If you want to follow Wybton, please listen to your local school band trumpeter.

Fantabulous!.......2007-06-18

My nephews sing the brushing your teeth song all the time and we just laugh as we try to keep up! Whenever they hear counting of any kind, we always end up counting down from 10 and yelling "Blast Off!" These songs are really catchy for kids and fun for them to dance and run around to. As an adult I find myself singing them as well because I like the style of music and the songs are very well written for adults to enjoy. This is a must buy for toddlers and young children!

Bounce to Moon Bounce.......2007-06-17

You'll be bouncing to the music on Dark Side of the Moon Bounce. The songs are educational for the youngsters. They teach about our measuring system, the days of the week, the Apollo Mission to the moon, the demotion of Pluto as a planet, and gravity. Adults will appreciate the music, too.

Out of This World!.......2007-06-01

We picked this album up at the release party and put it in the van's CD player on the way home. That was three weeks ago, and the kids still won't let me take it out! We now have all the songs memorized, and even the two-year-old sings along. My six-year-old and four-year-old sons are really into all the space songs. Music-savvy parents will recognize various genre influences and appreciate the music and lyrics on a different level, so I actually don't mind listening to it day-in and day-out. I've even caught myself listening to it when the kids aren't in the car, or singing "Days of the Week" to myself without it driving me crazy. Definitely something the whole family can enjoy!

Clever, catchy songs for the preschool set.......2007-05-27

Our kids (ages 4 and 2) absolutely love this album. It's fun, entertaining power-pop by a trio of very talented musicians. Rock on, Rocknoceros!

want to hear more magic from Jack Sheldon? . . . .......2006-12-08

. . . just take listen to the start of "Stranger in Paradise". What you'll hear is a signature trumpet sound that's everybody bit as distinctive and recognizable as that of Miles; Diz; Lee Morgan; Chet Baker - you name 'em. "Councellation" is a slighty weird, yet interesting and totally listenable little ditty, with C.C. himself filling in lots of interesting plucking on his bass. The rest of the tunes examplify the perfect balance of tension (east coast) and laidback-ness (west coast) that the Curtis Counce Group captured far better than most. If I had a time machine, I'd walk in on a gig that this bunch were playing in some L.A. dive someplace. But until such a device exists, CDs like this will have to do.

great cover and content.......2005-09-26

Decided to comment after I saw the comments about the "offensive" cover - this is what offends people these days? Go figure...I own the LP so the beautiful girl and her luscious open mouth are even bigger and even more tantalizing - the newer Acoustech audiophile pressing in Stereo. The sound is spectacular - recorded by Roy DuNann in '56 and '57, as good as any Jazz from that era, and better than much of today. Performances are also great, as would be expected from this line-up. I find myself coming back to the record quite often. It's fairly straight-ahead and a wonderful introductory record to spin for those just getting familiar with the genre.

Stop staring at the cover........2005-02-04

You get more bounce with Curtis Counce. Like the companion album "Landslide," this recording features Harold Land on tenor saxophone, Jack Sheldon on trumpet, and Carl Perkins on piano--some of the best jazz musicians in the west. (California isn't exactly as obscure as New Yorkers think.) There are gems on this disc, and the group's strength and balance are exemplary of the best jazz. The close interplay between Land, Sheldon, and Perkins on "How Deep is the Ocean" introduces Land's solo which is among the best recorded treatments of the song. "Too Close for Comfort" features Perkins, Sheldon's open trumpet, and a probing, lyrical solo by Land. The up tempo "Mean to Me" demonstrates the groups tight ensemble work and allows Land and Sheldon strong solos. Curtis Counce contributes two originals. "Complete" is a straight ahead number that could have come from any Miles Davis session of the period. "Counceltation" is a 12-tone modal experiment. The disc is rounded out with Sheldon's version of "Stranger in Paradise," a period piece. (Yeah, the album cover and title are sexist, but they're almost 50 years old!!) The group's renditions of Charlie Parker's "Big Foot" and Gillespie's "Woody'n You" bridge the coasts--bop standards played in original ways. And listen to Counce on "Big Foot." Again--excellent forgotten jazz from the far west.

Harold Land on Tenor - Curtis Counce on Bass.......2003-11-18

Listening to this album would lead you to believe that the star is the sax man and it, in a way, is. Harold Land lends such feeling to this group that Counce, the leader, seems like a sideman. Together, they make for great listening.

Critical, though not canonical (nor controversial)........2001-08-07

Another "sacred" trace by an exceptional group whose brief existence in the late fifties was largely overlooked due to all the attention given to the East Coast "Hard Bop" scene. But the Counce group was inimitable, a transcendent example of the art of modern jazz, exemplary in its collective cohesiveness, inspired solo statements, and the warm, deep sound captured on their recordings. Many of the well-known East Coast recordings of that time sound obvious, cliched, commercially funky by comparison with the Counce group, which manages to be "robust" while adhering to a lyric mode of expression.

But under no circumstances should this album be purchased ahead of "Landslide," the earlier album by the same group, a session that clearly belongs on any short list of greatest jazz recordings available. Start with that one before deciding on the remaining precious recordings by this musical assembly.

Lately I've noticed all sorts of qualifiers on behalf of products deemed politically incorrect if not morally objectionable. It certainly is cheering to know that we're so morally superior to the likes of Bing Crosby (who errored by singing an earlier lyric to "Ole Man River") or the artist who designed the "sexist" cover for "More Bounce to the Ounce." On the other hand, it never occurred to me that I should view this 1950s cover art as offensive until a previous reviewer pointed it out. If we're so insistent on viewing the cover dispassionately, humorlessly, and without irony, then why not give the subject credit for her medical acumen (I wouldn't even know how to use a stethoscope let alone read one).

[On second thought, yes, the cover is sexist as well as licentious, salacious, and sinful. If that helps bring more listeners to the Curtis Counce Group and an awareness of the quality of music they represent, I'm willing to concede the cover to Satan many times over.]

Just Okay .......2007-07-30

I wish I would have read the reviews before I bought the CD. I had been wanting the soundtrack assuming it would be most of the music from the movie and boy was I surprised to hear more remakes than originals that are tolerable to say the least. Not completely unhappy, but wish that I had looked a little closer before purchasing this one.

Disappointing.......2007-03-30

I was so anxious to recieve this soundtrack. The music from the movie was awsome. But the CD fell short of being what I had hoped for. The songs were not original. And alot of the music wasn't included on the CD. I guess I should have looked closer. So I will just buy the DVD. And listen to the music.

Awesome.......2007-02-08

This is an awesome soundtrack. It brought me back to my childhood and skating at the roller rink.
