Album Description
The pigeonholes that exist have long been a bad fit for John Butler anyway. Roots band, protest band, jam band, groove band . . . these labels may or may not have applied in the past, but the John Butler Trio of 2007 has come too far and seen too much to sit in anybody else's niche. "GRAND NATIONAL" is more about love than injustice, more about ass-shaking than finger-pointing, and more about maintaining the funk than any particular hairstyle. It's an album of sharp focus and wide variety that matches and surpasses monumental expectations.

john butler trio grand national.......2007-08-01
Very good sounding band,very pure rock'n'roll played with a lot of soul,great
This is one the most dynamic trios I've listened to tle last years,fine.
I play music too so you get to know and feel it,if it's true or not,well I tell you brother this album it's a fine piece of artwork.
Nevermind the Jennifer generation man,get into the real groove!!!
Totally grand.......2007-06-21
My 1st exposure to this Trio was not by radio but from a live TV performance on the legendary German Rockpalast show. I was totally gobsmacked. The music is very tight and together, and the guitar playing is in a league of its own. There is a great mix on this CD with many moods catered for. BY FAR my most favourite track is the 100mph track "Funky tonight". It starts off with incredible 12 string guitar playing and the rhythm section matches in every way. I looked on the sleeve notes to see what instruments were played, but I didnt see a "Didgeredoo" (Aboriginal blow pipe). I could have sworn it was used. The closest I can compare John Butler to is Ben Harper. A great CD. Check it out, and all his other stuff. This is my 1st listen of him, but by no means my last
Could they really have gotten better? .......2007-06-01
I first heard the John Butler Trio on KGSR Radio in Austin, TX. They played at SXSW Music Conference and the ACL Music Festival after that. They've got a funky Aboriginal sound that's totally their own. I honestly didn't think I'd like anything more than "Sunrise over Sea" but I obviously was wrong.
There aren't any political statements here, just good, solid rocking fun. If you haven't heard them, start with this CD.
Great CD! Why haven't I heard of these guys before?.......2007-05-28
I first heard the John Butler Trio on XM radio's XM Cafe. I like this CD because the songs are upbeat, nearly all of them are good, they do not all sound the same, and the disk passes the criteria of I like listening to it over and over again. My music taste runs from O.A.R., Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews, some Beck, to the first (not the most recent) Maroon 5 disk, etc. so you get an idea... suggest you listen to the sample clips and if you like them, try it - you'll like it!
This album is definitlet JBT's BEST!.......2007-05-18
How can you call "Daniella" an embarrasing track? Are you crazy, that is one of the best tracks on this album! Nonetheless, every track is unique and extremely catchy. This is rad feel-good music that makes you wanna move your feet for sure. Great third outing by John Butler and his always rotating trio. Its great because each album has a different cast of musicians that cater to that specific style. Definitely one of the best albums so far for 2007.

Recorded at the 1979 Havana Jazz Festival, this short and powerful set, with Miles Davis alumni, drummer Tony Williams and guitarist John McLaughlin, and Weather Report bassist Jaco Pastorius, was one for the ages. The previously unreleased selections, one through five, are explosive, but mis-miked live tracks. Williams' "Drum Improvisation" segues into McLaughlin's fuzz-toned "Dark Prince," which does not swing in a silent way. Pastorious' theme song "Continuum" is scaled down to its essential twilight textures, while the drummer's "Para Oriente" - which later became a stable in V.S.O.P's book, and was recast as "Angel Street" - is rendered here in a funky, pre-grunge mode. The guitarist's "Are You the One, Are You the One?" previews the jam band craze. The rest of the cuts were recorded a week later in a New York studio, But the warts-and-all original sides are unmatched for their primal power. --Eugene Holley, Jr.
Customer Reviews:
The Bay of Gigs.......2007-08-05
Other than a great drum solo by Tony Williams that starts this disc out, there is really nothing here to listen to. McLaughlin was never happy with the group in the first place, and Pastorius was going through a great deal of personal problems during this time. I bought this out of curiousity, knowing that McLaughlin never really wanted this project released at all, (although a studio cut made it on the Havana Jam LP around '79-'80) You're better off spending your money on both the new best of McLaughlin and Pastorius CD's that just came out. You can get this if you're really that curious, but don't expect much.
Trio Of Delight.......2007-07-18
It would be very difficult to put together a more powerful trio of Fusion giants on one disc. Jaco was and is the greatest electric bass player that ever lived. And Tony Williams was probably one of the most creative drummers to ever pick up a pair of sticks. As far as John McGlaughlin, need I say more than Mahavishnu Orchestra.
Glad to hear it finally make it from the vault.......2007-07-12
Tony Williams is a monster on this album. Jaco is Jaco and McLaughlin is McLaughlin, but to hear Tony play in this setting is amazing. If you're a fan of any of the three - buy it. If you're a drummer, this better be a part of your collection. You'll go crazy trying to figure out how Tony does what he does (how about the hands/feet roll during his drum improv...wow).
unrealized potential (and other thoughts).......2007-07-11
It is amazing that these 3 seminal musicians only got together for 40 minutes of music. John McLaughlin, arguably the most musically wide-ranging guitarist I've ever heard; Jaco Pastorius, maybe the greatest electric bass player ever; and Tony Williams, one of the top 5 scariest drummers in jazz/rock. Unfortunately, this recording isn't the best one for either of these guys; probably more time spent playing together would've done the trick, therefore my review title. Unfortunately, this will never happen, as 2 of them are dead. As far as Sony keeping these recordings in their vault; well, we all know what motivates these companies, and it isn't music, so don't hold your breath for unreleased treasures seeing the light of day (hey, where's that McLaughlin/Hendrix recording that supposedly exists). Speaking of McLaughlin, check out his short gig on the Crossroads Blues Festival 2-dvd set (featuring Clapton and other blues icons), where he plays with Dennis Chambers and Zakir Hussain. The guitar playing is amazing, in case anybody thought he had "lost" anything in the past 30 years. In fact, I was shocked. Getting back to Trio of Doom, I think Jaco really holds this thing together. Comments, everybody?
Trio of Doom vs Havana Jam 1/2.......2007-07-07
John McLaughlin should receive full credit for making this 1979 performance available. It has been well worth the wait, given that on Havana Jam 1/2 only three tracks were included, "The Dark Prince", "Continuum" and "Para Oriente". On this CD there is "Are You The One, Are You The One?" (live) plus the live versions of the three tracks mentioned above on one single CD. The recordings give new insights into the version of "Are You The One, Are You The One?" featured on "Johnny McLaughlin Electric Guitarist" as well as "The Dark Prince" on The One Truth Band's " Electric Dreams".

Longtime listeners have seen it coming: it was only a matter of time before John Mayer dropped the pop star pretense and proved he could really bring it. Chalk it up to one too many Dave Matthews comparisons, or the cupcake-sweet residue stuck to his image after the success of "Your Body Is a Wonderland"--but something convinced Mayer it was time to take him game to the next level. With help from studio pros Steve Jordan and Pino Palladino, he succeeds on Try. If the muscled-up covers of Jimi Hendrix's "Wait Until Tomorrow" and Ray Charles' "I Got a Woman" don't scream "no more Mr. Nice Guy" loud enough, the brawn of blues-rock opener "Who Do You Think I Was" does for sure. Mixed in with the Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eric Clapton-esque stuff are a few mellow numbers--"Daughters," most notably, returns from Heavier Things alongside "Something's Missing"--but even those songs seem hopped up on rock-God hormones. This newfound sizzle can't fix everything; that segment of the music-buying public that would accuse the singer of having a voice like "a whispering midget" (to quote a customer review of Mayer's work) won't want to add this disc to their collection. The good news for Mayer, though, is that anybody with an ear for genuine rock'n'roll chops will. --Tammy La Gorce
Customer Reviews:
I wasn't a John Mayer fan until I heard this album.......2007-07-31
I hadn't heard anything from John Mayer in a while. I had given up on him when he came out with his first album, which was a little too "poppy" for my taste. I usually go for oldies, stevie ray vaughn and hendrix among some of my favorites (though I'm only 24). My friend gave me this album and told me I should try it and to trust him. I absolutely loved this album when I first heard it. Each song is more soulful than they were on their original albums. I actually prefer the versions of "Daughters" and "Gravity" on this album. The versions of these songs make the original versions sound like like the "plain, unsalted" version of potato chips - bland. For those who have said Mayer is a subpar guitar player, I don't think they have truly listened to the guitar parts on this album. Mayer improvises a lot more on this cd.I've seen a lot of people say, "He's no Hendrix" or "He's no Stevie Ray". He may not be, but the influence on the guitar work is definitely there. Mayer pulls out all the stops on this one and plays many songs in the style of Stevie Ray - and it works. You can hear the Hendrix influences on his guitar work all over the place. Even Mayer's voice is different than it usually is on his studio albums. He sounded more relaxed, but his voice sounded great. I only wish Mayer would deliver like this on his studio albums. He would be so great. He really put heart in this live version and you could tell he was relaxed, but that definitely didn't hurt his performance one BIT on this album.
Try! John Mayer Trio Live.......2007-07-27
John's good in the studio, and perhaps better on stage.
This is a very good Live Recoding!
Good album if you like live music and John Mayer.......2007-07-19
I love live music and I love John Mayer. That is what made this album a good buy for me. If you are looking for Johns classics then this album might not be for you because it features stuff from a trio of his. It does have a great Somethings Missing and some songs that are Newer in this album from the newest album.
All and all if you are looking for some different John Mayer stuff and you already like him this would be a great addition to your collection.
This album has a blusey feel to it much like his latest album has.
Better than expected.......2007-05-30
John Mayer does have a lot of live albums for a guy who just put out his Jr. cd this past fall. But, hey...if you have the chops, and the raw muscial talent than people will listen, even if it's the same tracks. Mostly because he's the king of creative variation. This CD is better than I expected, and more edgy than some of his past albums.
There are old favorites here, but again- he never sings the same song twice, and has a lot of fun with his music! His music is so dam good people buy cd's with the same tracks just to hear them a different way!
Live Album.......2007-05-26
This isn't the first John Mayer cd Ive bought but I think it's the best. Hearing him live is a whole new experience.

Such is the arresting beauty of Tord Gustavsen's sound, it's no surprise that his albums have captured a significant following, surpassing even those of other rarified artists on the ECM label. But the Norwegian pianist doesn't live on beauty alone. His sculpted playing, which draws strongly on his church background with its tidy gospel voicings while also incorporating Spanish and South African accents, has a kind of liquid weight that brings to mind Ethan Iverson of the icon-bashing Bad Plus, as markedly different as they are stylistically. Beyond that, it's the remarkable shift-shaping qualities of Gustavsen's trio that make Being There so compelling. Gustavsen has talked about being influenced artistically by "the psychology of relationships." The psychology of the relationship among him, bassist Harald Johnsen, and drummer Jarle Vespestad is made compelling not only by standard interactive effects, but also by the unique shape-shifting that occurs through continual shifts in how much voice each player has in relation to the others, how much lightness or darkness, how much intensity. A notable advance over the trio's first two albums, on which being deliberate sometimes translated into dull, Being There rarely loses its grip. There are stories being told here, with endings that change with each spin. --Lloyd Sachs
Album Description
One of the great success stories of jazz in the last five years, the Tord Gustavsen Trio follows up their first two hit albums with the eagerly-anticipated Being There. The new release finds the trio continually opening up the music in new and lyrical ways. Along with Gustavsen's infectious music (both ballads and up-tempo) drummer Jarle Vespestad and bassist Harald Johnsen make considerable contributions to the new album. Johnsen lends his compositional skills with the graceful tango "Karmosin," and Vespestad is often as much a front-line voice in the music as Gustavsen himself.
Proving that sensual, spiritual jazz can come from even icy Norway, the Tord Gustavsen Trio stormed onto the jazz scene in 2003 with their debut recording, Changing Places. 2005's The Ground took the band one step further and even topped the pop charts in Norway, an unprecedented achievement. The restraint of Gustavsen's approach and the allure of his simply drawn melodies has spoken to an audience that does not normally concern itself with improvisation.
Customer Reviews:
takes more than a listen to................2007-06-29
I loved Tord first cd . This mix of orientalisim , romantisim , the slow tempo .....everything worked . On this 3rd cd , it took me awhile to get to the music . I first found it much to slow , some of the best tracks are actually hidden in the end of the cd , the last 4 or 5 tracks , couple in the beginning , and then a long and empty passage in between . Tord is a wonderfull artist , with a great sense of drama , but I think he falls a little short on his 3rd cd .
Dreamlike Adagio.......2007-06-12
The one thing Tord Gustavsen's jazz trio has in common with novelist Haruki Murakami is their ability to create dreamlike landscape through their own creativity media. The difference, though, is that in the process of the creation, Murakami will use as many as possible details to blend reality and dreamscape; whereas in the case of Tord Gustavsen Trio, we are only provided with the basic framework for slow and very often restrained melodies, in which nothing is developed into complexity rather than merely the feeling per se.
Nonetheless, this is not to say that their music is lackluster. The trio displayed in their previous albums Changing Places and the Ground, their abilities to compose such beautiful yet not abstract jazz in a discipline which Gustavsen puts, "inspired by a love of spaces". In jazz, sometimes playing a riff in between notes might be easy, but leaving it blank takes up imagination. Tord Gustavsen Trio definitely has this imagination.
Releasing their third album in five years, Being There, as part of a trilogy, the trio has taken their restraint way of utterance to a new territory. When you start listening to the album, the sense of déjà vu will dominate you even if you have never heard of their previous albums. Yet as the music goes on, it will be clear to even long-time listeners that you are not in a familiar place at all. Tunes like Blessed Feet (a Jarrett-like funky tune) and Where We Went (an up-tempo Spanish dance) sing a more assertive but not aggressive kind of lyrics, while the music is still kept as simple and uncanny as it possibly can. The way trio instruments are approached, especially by drummer Jarle Vespestrad, whose plays are being felt rather than heard for most of the time, meshes delicate whispers altogether in modest tempi and continuous rubato. This un-trio-like instrumental integration makes the music feel like dream flows in a constantly changing vista, which finally resolves back to the same place where it started when the album ends with the peaceful tune Wide Open.
All About Jazz reviewer John Kelman put the trio's distinctive character beautifully: "As silence can sometimes speak as loudly as thunder, and insofar as careful elaboration of melody can be just as compelling as more vivid expansion, Gustavsen's trio makes a clear case for the elusive power of restraint." Gustavsen phrases it romantically, that his music is "about loving every note". It is this very tendency of playing what you like, rather than what you ought to play between passages, together with the elaborated yet elegant lyrics of the tunes, that creates this unique aesthetic and the kind of feeling you will not have very often in reality, but in dreams.

Wonderful.......2007-06-26
I bought this CD to listen to at work (I am 6 months pregnant). The quality is awesome and the choice of songs is perfect I can listen to it over and over.
Great for putting kids to sleep!.......2007-06-08
I absolutely love this CD! In fact this is our second one because we wore out the first since we played it so much. It is very soothing, and in fact we used it to help both our kids (now 4 and 18 mo) go to sleep since they were babies. I highly recommend it!
Very Relaxing.......2007-04-10
It is very soothing and really helps you relax. I enjoy listening to it in the car during my high stress commute.
A Must Have for all Parents of Little Children !!!.......2006-11-25
I bought this when my first baby was...well, a baby. That was 8 years ago. Now I am on my 4th copy of this cd (Mozart For Mothers to Be) and my 3rd child. Nothing works better. I'm on here to buy my 4th copy becasue I've worn them out over the years and have to keep replaceing them. My 8 and 3 year old still use it, and now the new baby, also. Make it part of your nightly bed time routine and you'll have good little sleepers in no time. I swear by it. It is very soothing, calming and not distracting so it won't drive you bonkers if you can hear it a little from the next room.
A truely great gift for new parents, or if you have a sleepless little one at home. Turn on the cd, turn down the lights and let it sooth them to sleep.
Inspire the baby-within.......2005-12-13
Beyond sheer musical appreciation and enjoyment, Mozart's music in general is ideal for gently stimulating the "creative centers" as well as instilling a sense well-being. While there is much academic disagreement about the extent or reality of the so-called "Mozart Effect," it doesn't take a genius to observe how Mozart's music puts most people (and probably babies-to-be) in a happy mood ready to take on the day's challenges. There is a simplicity - yet elegance and musical brilliance - in his music that is also well-suited for the youngest of children.
The selections on this CD are all excellent and represent a nice range of Mozart's compostions, emphasising those that are ideal for creating a pleasant backdrop for leisure, dining and social occasions ("divertimentos"). The recordings are from the creme of musicians famous for their Mozart. Few works are as elegant and soaring as the Serenade #10 for winds - an astonishingly beautiful tune made famous from the early scenes of the movie, "Amadeus." Mozart supreme gifts of music are even seen in such humble "background music" as these pieces. And such continuity of warm, leisurely tones as these over 70 minutes is ideal for inspiring the baby to-be if that is why you are considering this CD. Better to expose a baby to the gentile, lyrical music of Mozart than to the dissonant, loud and disturbing tones of some classical music written well after Mozart.
As the reviewer below rightfully notes, compilation CD's of various unrelated works like this one is not quite how classical music is best meant to be heard. But in a way it is better for many to start with such collections like this - especially for those who just want the more quiet selections that are unintrusive. In that respect, this collection can be satisfying for most anyone (not just moms or babies). I have a huge classical music collection, but still really enjoy listening to one full CD of similar-temperament music like this one that flows easily and smoothly that doesn't demand my attention but only seeks to delight. And, in the end, that was the simple and primary goal of many of Mozart's compositions - to be purely enjoyed and delighted.

Customer Reviews:
Great collection.......2007-07-12
Puts most modern players to shame. And Les is not forgotten - at 92, still plays every Monday at the Iridium in NYC (great show btw) with many amazing players making surprise visits to pay homage. Also the the recent PBS American Masters piece on Les.
Something Great From The Man Who "Invented" The Electric Guitar.......2007-05-14
Like Jelly Roll Morton a generation before him (who claimed to have "invented" Jazz and whose recodings set the standard for that era) these lovely early tracks from Les Paul deserve to be heard by the younger generation, and we older folk can do with some reminding, too.
What a pity to have all but forgotten him, so. If Les Paul (or Mary Ford) is still alive (I realise they would be a little old if they still were) I wish they could know that I and my wife haven't forgotten them and now that I have this excellent re recording, we never will.
Treasure trove of scintillating miniatures.......2005-11-17
I never appreciated the superb musicianship of Les Paul until picking up this bargain-priced collection of 20 dazzling performances by the "Wizard of Waukesha." Now it finally begins to make sense that one of his early, formative influences was no less than Art Tatum.
Within each of these 2-3 minute masterpieces Les manages to impress as a solo guitar master as well as a tasteful, expressive musician and an ensemble player of the first order. There's no electronic trickery on these recordings from 1947--simply a level of artistry and flawless execution that's all the more striking because of the limited space given each player to say his piece. The tempos include a couple of ballads and medium tempos along with the predominantly up-tempo tunes.
No less impressive than the solos is the inventiveness of the compositions and the glittering tightness of the ensemble playing. Much of the time Les is heard playing blazingly fast melodic lines in harmony with a nameless piano virtuoso who is on the same level as Les if not even more fluent and imaginative. In fact, the single downside of this collection is the absence of dates, musicians' names, and all other potentially useful information about the recordings (some research suggests that the pianist is Paul Smith).
Admittedly, Les frequently resorts to "canned licks" rather than risking extemporaneous improvisation on the chords (the pianist is usually given the more adventurous role). Nevertheless, this is challenging, exhilarating music, full of surprises and played to perfection.
Laserlight Comes Through Again.......2005-08-02
Laserlight seems to have a magical ability to put out excellent collections (They put out some fantastic Nat King Cole Trio collections as well. Check them out too!) for dirt cheap.
This collection concentrates on Les Paul's early carrer and as the title implies, it is his trio of guitar, bass and piano. The recordings were made in the 1940's and are mono, but the sound is crisp and clear.
Definitely a great buy at the price. Larry's review pretty much sums it up.
MORE of Les!.......2003-02-25
Well, for the price of this CD, I could have bought a Burger, Fries, and a Coke but...I'm glad I didn't. This CD rocks, which is ironic considering the price. If you are a guitar player, or a fan of guitar music this disc is sure to be a welcome addition to your collection.
The 21 cuts are circa 1947, which means the recordings are pre-Gibson Les Paul model guitar. Since he's playing a jazz box, his tone is really warm and smooth, compared to the brighter tone of his later solid body work,(1950's - 60's) but his sense of humor and wicked licks are here nonetheless.
In fact, the CD is an excellent, equally mixed collection of slow sultry tunes, medium paced bops, and flat-out, high-speed ripping. The significance is that many of Les' CD's are not specifically aimed at appreciating his mastery of the instrument, but instead are fixated in content either on his association with Mary Ford, or his inventive marvels like multi-tracking and echo. As a result, much of Les' pure technique winds-up being buried and taking a back seat to either Mary's vocals, or his own signal processing.
Even worse, some manufacturers are releasing discs entitled "Guitar Wizard" for example, that are cleverly using the title as a marketing gimmick only, and with no intent to include tracks that showcase Les' incredible fretting agility and monster technique.
Pathetic.
Not the case here though.
Don't get me wrong, I really like the other stuff he has done, but there is just so damn much of it, and hardly any CD's exist to the contrary that prove "Les is More" - without the multi-tracking or signal processing.
I do know that he is known for his "new sound", and it is a wonderful part of music history, but by fixating ONLY on that, record companies have shorted us the pleasure of enjoying Les as the phenomenal guitarist that he truly is, in his purest form. Personally I believe that a collection CD featuring Les' best guitar work is not only badly needed, but actually OWED to him, considering what he has done for the electric guitar specifically, and the music industry in general.
Whether or not you like his music, one fact remains...
This is the man that "discovered electricity" for guitar players, and multi-track recording for the record industry.
Until someone releases something worthy, this CD is an excellent, excellent effort.
My hat's off to it's manufacturer (Laserlight) and am hoping for more...

Sonny Rollins's 1957 release Way Out West established the pianoless bass-sax-drum configuration. The Berkeley-raised tenor/soprano saxophonist Joshua Redman's geographically reversed tribute was recorded in New York, where his career began. It features three sets of trios, with drummers Brian Blade, Eric Harland, and Ali Jackson and bassists Rueben Rogers, Christian McBride, and Larry Grenadier. Redman's sure-headed, serpentine, and sensual saxlines upgrade the two WOW tracks "I'm an Old Cowhand" and "Wagon Wheels" with Afro-Asian rhythmic motifs. Joe Lovano, Chris Cheek, and the leader's late father Dewey Redman lend their sax sounds to selections by Redman's horn influences: "Indian Song" by Wayne Shorter, John Coltrane's "India," and the Stan Getz-associated ballad "East of the Sun (and West of the Moon)." Redman's compositions--"Mantra #5," the tantric-tempoed "Indonesia," the title track, and "GJ," a touching dedication from Joshua Redman's dad to his grandson--complete the thrilling project from this future saxophone colossus. --Eugene Holley, Jr.
Album Description
Joshua Redman mixes originals with standards in tribute of the great sax players before him, on his new album Back East. But Redman doesn't just pay homage with these tunes, he makes them his own, adding a different sort of "eastern" feel to both the covers and his original compositions. With many special guest performers, including his own father, Redman has created a eloquent gift for the music world.
Customer Reviews:
Surprisingly good.......2007-07-12
Joshua Redman is hit or miss with me. I'm not really a fan of his elastic band stuff, so hearing him return to an acoustic format in a trio setting was a nice change for me. Each trio is unique and showcases each member in a different way - it's amazing how this stripped down format can stay interesting throughout the entire album. Recommended.
Fair cd.......2007-06-25
Off the Mark & what I mean is wrong material. Doesnt show what his talents are. Id get George Benson, Bob James Nathan east, David Beniot, Peter white, Mark antione on your next cd & this would make a awesome Cd.
How to navigate the perils of a saxophone trio.......2007-06-21
A saxophone trio album can be tricky, since the saxophonist has to pretty much carry the entire load. If the sax playing isn't utter genius (think of Ornette Coleman's "At The Golden Circle"), then you can get a CD that seems to go on for too long (think of Branford Marsalis's "Bloomington"). Joshua Redman does a few things to avoid that pitfall. The first thing is call in three guest saxophonists, Chris Cheek, Joe Lovano, and Dewey Redman, to appear on three different songs. The two-sax songs are sprinkled through the CD. Another way to avoid monotony is to have three different rhythm sections. All three sections are top-notch, and you get the sense they're playing to the song and the saxophone, not to out-do the other bassists and drummers. Larry Grenadier and Ali Jackson play on most of the songs. Lastly, the songs are kept relatively short, so it isn't too long before a new melody or tempo is introduced.
Joshua Redman starts off with an old warhorse, "Surrey With The Fringe On Top" and freshens it up a little by chopping up the rhythm. Most of the rest of the songs have an Asian reference in their title, and to a lesser extent in their music. I'm not sure how "I'm An Old Cowhand" and "Wagon Wheels" fit in with the theme, since they're western songs . At any rate, the standards are nicely played, and the new compositions are also good. It's simply a top-notch album, and is highly recommended. This will be one of the better CD's of 2007. The last song doesn't have Joshua on it, but has Dewey Redman playing for his granddaughter. It's interestingly free-jazzy, and perhaps a suitable capstone to Dewey's long and interesting career.
Always Open Ears For Josh - Always Time For Dewey.......2007-06-03
Nowhere is it written that expressing angst is in the sole dominion of the consternated pop/alt./rockers and their ilk. Joshua Redman makes that clear by bailing himself out of San Fran (temporarily), scooping up his little bambino, and coming "Back East" to bury his father. Josh has plenty of strong emotions to work out in front of us, and we should have no problem with that. This is healthy music-making. There's also the palpable sense that Redman was jonesing big-time to play again in a trio setting with Brian Blade, his musical alter-ego. Other drummers are on-board besides Blade, but it's not the first time, as some have suggested, that Brian and Josh have recorded in a trio. See Yaya3 for proof of that (with no bassist, but bass-end courtesy of B3-er Sam Yahel). This isn't even the first time that Josh has recorded with just the bare-bones sax-bass-drums thing going on (see isolated tracks on Joshua Redman, Wish, and Spirit Of The Moment: Live At The Village Vanguard). But an entire album of it? Yes, now we're talking "Back East" style. Before getting all caught up with this distinction, however, just watch those lines get blurred by some of these trios morphing into quartets with the addition of some very special guests.
It's impossible to write this review and not drop the name Sonny Rollins, since a full third of the tracks here are tunes that Newk explored within the very same trio constraints back in the late 50's, and you know that Josh loves his Newk. He doesn't try to sound like Rollins here - he just invokes Sonny's powerful visage. The name and the sound, both invoked and actually present, which "Back East" *is* suffused with is that of Joshua's late father, Dewey Redman. My first exposure to the music of Dewey Redman came in the mid 70's when he was part of Keith Jarrett's incendiary American combo that made recordings for Impulse!, but I have to confess that most of it went way over my head at the time. What really made me pay attention to Dewey was his significant contribution to Pat Metheny's ECM double-album 80/81, right there next to Jack DeJohnette, Charlie Haden (also a vet of that Jarrett unit), Metheny, and the late Michael Brecker. What a free-emotive ear-opening revelation Dewey was on those tunes! Next came my awareness of the outfit known as "Old And New Dreams" with Don Cherry, Ed Blackwell, and Haden again, which really convinced me that it was Miles Davis who was "all messed up inside" and not Ornette Coleman. And in the midst of all this great music came a Dewey Redman album for the ages - 1983's "The Struggle Continues" on ECM. Search hard in used vinyl shops for it - or even harder for a CD copy.
So what does any of this have to do with Joshua Redman's new self-produced title on Nonesuch? The answer is: everything. Josh has some of the biggest ears on this planet - don't go thinking for a minute that any of this stuff from the late 70's and 80's was lost on him, even if he tells you that he had to "come back" for some of it (he grew up apart from his dad with his mother in the Bay Area). Once Josh made the commitment to music over law school, *all* the great tenors who came before him contributed something to his jurisprudence of jazz degree. And with this latest offering, Redman (the younger) continues to show off his very sponge-like abilities even further. If there were just a few more tracks like the Josh original "Indonesia" (which isn't exactly gamelan, but sure ain't no 12-bar blues either) or the Coltrane gem "India" (performed in 4tet with father Dewey), or the Shorter jewel "Indian Song" (4tet with Joe Lovano, tune lifted from Wayne's o.o.p. 1965 album "Etcetera") this review would be attached to a 5-star rating. But 4 stars is still pretty darned good, and "Back East" is worth extra spins just to reflect on the incredible musical legacy left to us by Dewey Redman, who not so incidentally gets the last dance all to himself (in a trio) for the set closer. Salaam, Dewey. Great album, Josh.
Impressive!.......2007-05-24
I own every single Joshua Redman album and I think that Back East is the album I'm most impressed with. Simply put, Redman's improve prowess is off the charts. Redman has always been good, even great, but now I think he is on another planet planet.

All for You is a tribute to the Nat "King" Cole Trio of the 1940s, when Cole performed as both a singer and a pianist. Krall, like her heroes Lena Horne and Carmen McRae, is also a singer-pianist, and she plays both roles on most of the songs here. She's able to link her singing to her piano playing in sympathetic ways and projects tremendous feeling through both. Like Cole in the '40s, Krall plays with a drummerless trio--here with guitarist Russell Malone and bassist Paul Keller. Their sense of intimate rapport is especially valuable on ballads such as "You Call It Madness" and "I'm Thru with Love," but also allows such uptempo tunes as "Hit That Jive Jack" to swing with surprising lightness. --Geoffrey Himes

A lady you can never get tired of hearing.......2007-07-04
Its so good to hear a musician who doesnt force the music but rather lets it flow, lets it just drift out from within. Beautiful, soft and mellow; this is definatly chill out music. Hard day at work, in need of something to take your mind off the rat race? Just slip this CD into the player and sit back and listen to a wonderful gifted jazz musician.
a pleasure to listen to.......2007-03-08
nice voice, nice music.
When it's good there is no need to go on and on with words.
great combination.......2007-02-19
The magic of Nat King Cole's music sung by the beautiful voice of Diana Krall, a great combination.
Another great album.......2007-01-22
Diana Krall's voice is like no one else's and I love listening to her. She's very talented in her piano playing, of course, but that voice of hers and the songs on her albums --- I've never been disappointed in any of her work.
Incredible singing instrument .......2007-01-01
Most of the songs here are unfamiliar to me. But in every track one hears the remarkable singing voice of Krall. She is one of those singers like Streisand who makes the voice a musical instrument. She moves us in so many subtle ways. And there is something about the quality of her voice, its fullness, its beautiful timbre. She seems also to have such control of what she is doing , and she is always making it interesting with new little riffs here and there. She is the best 'new singer' I have heard in years.
Just a remarkable singer who it is pleasure to hear.

"Appalachia circa 1907" is the way they described it in the postgame interviews. It wasn't, of course, but it was as close as you could come in 1987 and still hope to sell the million copies that this ended up selling. The "Three Tenors" of country music juggle leads, complement each other to often haunting effect, and subjugate their egos to a greater cause. The songs run the gamut from primordial country favorites like "Rosewood Casket" and "Hobo's Meditation," to '50s pop (a rather anomalous "To Know Him Is to Love Him"), and mainstream country. The instrumentation is restrained, the vocals are unfailingly lovely, and the result is a trio that is more than the sum of its parts. --Colin Escott
Customer Reviews:
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE - Anniversary release????.......2007-05-23
It goes without saying this is a classic recording and is mentioned numorous times in articles and reviews comparing other recordings to it. I haven't heard any rumors but it would be fitting if Rhino planned a 20th Anniversary deluxe release - remastered and expanded to 2 discs. Trio definitely qualifies as an obvious choice for a new remastered release. I can only hope it is being kept a secret given the little advance information given out for most Rhino releases - the upcoming Emmylou rarities box set included.
Trio.......2007-03-12
Wonderful music by three very talented ladies. I play it frequently. Received in excellent conditoin.
Good Harmony.......2007-03-09
This is one of the best country ladies harmony record I have heard in a long time. The solo's are very good and from two ladie's one doesn't hear to much from.
It is to bad the songs in this cd are sad and kinda depressing but the music is great.
Gift.......2007-01-09
This was a gift, but I got a lot of credit for getting. I have heard the CD though I thought it was very nice.
Only Somewhat Impressed.......2006-08-10
I enjoyed the harmony of the singers and a few of the songs, but to really enjoy the CD, you need to be an OLD folk songs enthusiast.

[...] Honestly, it isn't THAT THAT great, but its good enough for its price. I'd say that your $ pays off, for a while. I've noticed how after a long time, it gets aggrivating at times. No harm meant, "Beethoven lover". I just mean don't plunge into this cd with all the hopes in the world. Besides, it's just my opinion, so you may like it more than me. All i can say is; a) listen to some samples before you buy, b)know this is not REALLY the great Beethoven himself, and c) enjoy YOUR music, whatever it may be.
Great Price...Not so good itself.......2005-05-19
This a great priced cd, but the content is why it is so cheap. It's a true-amateur album. Beethoven Lover is over her/his head. This is the real world, not a fantasy-everyone-likes-every-type-of-music world. Deal with it and agree with me. It isn't so great.
