5 out of 5 stars Perfect jazz vocal recordings!.......2007-01-27

If you are looking for a place to begin with Mel Torme, start here! Mel Torme has a slew of recordings over six decades that are excellent, but many believe that the two albums compiled here on one disc (Mel Torme and the Marty Paich Dek-tette also known as Lulu's Back in Town, and Mel Torme Sings Fred Astaire) are the cream of the crop. Torme's vocal chords were in flawless condition, Paich's horn arrangements are endlessly fascinating (not to mention ample solos throughout by the band), and the songwriting is first class. There are so many highlights it's hard to know where to begin...
1. The trumpet solo on "Let's Face the Music and Dance"
2. Mel's scat solo on "Lullaby of Birdland"
3. The scorching arrangement for "The Way You Look Tonight"
4. The playful jabs at his friend Buddy Rich on "I Like To Recognize the Tune" (what to speak of Marty's arrangements which portray the lyrics perfectly).
5. Marty's dissonant horn arrangement in reponse to Mel's flawless mock-classical practice scales on "Sing for Your Supper."
6. Irresistable songs like "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off" and "They All Laughed."
Well, I could go on and on with this list all night, but it's getting late and I haven't even mentioned the packaging-- a wonderful booklet with 5 historic pictures from the sessions, one with a panoramic view of the band and Mel surrounding Marty Paich. The original liner notes are incorporated into a larger essay by Jordi Pujol. They even tell us the exact band members on each of the three session that were used for the recordings.
You just can't go wrong with this recording. We owe Fresh Sounds Records' (jazzcity series) a debt of appreciation for getting these albums back into print, and for putting a special focus on Marty Paich's contribution. One of America's great contributions to the world of jazz vocal music has been given a proper representation! =--=-=- om=-=-=- Nick

        4 out of 5 stars Se habla Espan~ol!.......2005-05-15

        These are the sessions produced by Jazz critic Roberto Ayala, who made an extensive search around Mexico to find the most talented musicians in the Jazz medium in order to record them.
        This was March 5th, 1954
        (These CD's volume one and volume two are made in Spain and I give four stars because the sound quality is not as good as it could have been had the master tapes fallen into the hands of Rudy Van Gelder for example, I wish these could be remastered.)

        In 1954, Hector "El Arabe" Hallal tenor and alto saxophonist had been playing in the United States and Mario Patron (pianist,flutist) had recently arrived to Mexico City from Mazatlan.
        Cesar Molina was the first Mexican trumpeter in many years to play Jazz and had always been in the best orchestras in Mexico.Pablo Jaimes pianist from the Art Tatum school was possesor of great technique and inventiveness but sadly inclined only to play foreign composers as opposed to Mario Patron,(I say sadly because Jazz versions of Mexican boleros are very very rare and far in between making me wish I could hear this wonderful pianist in a more Latin mode), Victor Ruiz Pasos,best bass player in his speciality and leader of several groups. Tino Contreras, the most outstanding drummer in Mexico at the time and the one that fought the most to make Jazz known in the country. Tomas "La Negrita" Rodriguez and Roman Lopez saxophonists, the later a member of the orchestra of Luis Alcaraz and last but not least Pepe Solis trumpeter in the orchestra of Everett Hoagland and the quartet of Chucho Zarzosa, who plays French Horn like a dream.

        Both volume one and two of "Jazz in Mexico the Legendary 1954 sessions" offer some world class performances of great numbers by Cole Porter, Gershwin, Benny Goodman and Jerome Kern, and the Mexicans Consuelo Velazquez, Maria Grever, Mario Ruiz Armengol, Jose Sabre Marroquin, Luis Alcaraz and two of the interpreters: Ruiz Pasos and Patron Contreras.
        My personal favorite is volume two, maybe because it has more Mexican tunes in it, but I recommend both.

        The best numbers in VOLUME ONE are:
        "Cuerdas Tristes", written by Ruiz Pasos, It has a taste of the Mexican balads of the 50's, but immersed totally in the Jazz language, with some of the best bowing in the CD.
        "Rumbola" by Contreras, proves that not only Max Roach can groove. Cesar Molina swings with every note, on the spot, very smooth.
        "Cuando vuelva a tu lado" shows the best interpretation of this number I've ever heard, here Molina is smooth as silk and the walking bassline by Ruiz Pasos is right on time, giving you a feel of well-being as you listen, despite the fact that this is a bolero, Mario Patron plays a la Oscar Peterson, without excessive ornamentation or waste of notes,really nice.
        "How high the moon" shows the incredible chops of "El Arabe", making you wonder if he could have become as famous as Sonny Rollins if he had been born in a different place while Pablo Jaimes gets smoke out of the keys and shows great stride technique.
        "You can depend on me" is another high swinging number showing the great talent of these musicians, I wish I could get them in a studio today! (Maybe the sound would be better)
        "Casbah" dedicated to a coffee shop around downtown Mexico City's Ayuntamiento shows the Mambo sound of the saxophone ensemble with "El Arabe","La Negrita" and Roman Lopez on Baritone taking you back to the feeling of Mambo No. 5 and immediately after keep swingin' with a more Benny Goodman texture, the transition between the two imperceptible. The latin groove by Contreras is as good as any of the American drummers of the day, and this lasts for merely 58 seconds before plunging into the improvisations by each of the performers. Specially good is the solo by Pepe Solis. I wonder why there aren't as many French horners in Jazz as there are trumpeters...
        Volume one closes with "Fascinating rhythm" by Gershwin, well interpreted, very tight, but it sounds a lot like a Swing Orchestra up to the 56 second, when the more boppy feel begins.

        VOLUME TWO has also some great tracks, among my favorites being:
        "Everything happens to me", with nice brushwork by contreras but mostly, a very sentimental Patron playing piano just like the Mexican 50's should be.
        "Pennies from heaven" is another great number but nothing out of the extraordinary, maybe because this number has been played and played by so many different people. Competent, though.
        This second CD also has more latin numbers and they are ALL great:"Silenciosa", with an almost Wynton Marsallis quality to it.
        "Contigo en la Distancia", also the best interpretation I've heard of this number which lends itself perfectly for the Jazz medium shows that influences flow South and not only North.
        "Volvere'" an uptempo number written by Maria Grever, again with wonderful trumpeteering and good keywork, proves that "El Quarteto de Cesar Molina" is the best group in the CD.
        "Vacilando" by Luis Alcaraz displays the enormous influence that Jazz had on the late Band director-composer, with a steaming solo by Tino Contreras, as good as Gene Krupa closing the number.
        "Don't blame me" displays a very silky tenor, marked by an accurate Ruiz Pasos on bass.
        "Viernes a las Nueve" blows your mind with the incredible Sax ensemble with "El Arabe" on alto and "La Negrita" on tenor as well as Roman Lopez on Baritone. Tino Contreras yet again with the afro-cuban groove shows who's the granddaddy of Mexican drummers. Outstanding solo on French Horn by Pepe Solis, everybody playing tight, swiveling from swing to bop in the blink of an eye. Nice bass solo by Victor Ruiz Pasos, this particular number is my favorite on both CD's and was written by Hector "El Arabe" Hallal himself.
        "Besame Mucho" is a big number in Japan, made famous by Trio los Panchos, who brought bolero to this Far Eastern land. It sounds a little too much big band but it's good (Dominick Farinacci makes a better interpretation on his CD of the same title ASIN: B0002Q2KHI)
        "Prisionero del Mar" is the last number, written by Luis Alcaraz, seems like this is the number where the musicians had the most fun, you can hear them yelling at each other words of encouragment, just like in a hot session where everything clicks.
        Great closing number for a great CD.

        5 out of 5 stars Without History..........2004-05-26

        Unlike other reviewers here, I came to Nectar as my first Brooks Williams CD (following the use of a track at the end of a TV series was following). It stunned me. The warmth of the instrumentation & the voice. The playful, intricate lyrics and the outsanding guitar work. It's a sublime album that I can put on anytime and while away 40 minutes in the blink of an eye. I'm now on a mission to acquire some other Williams recordings. Hope I won't be shocked or disappointed. Buy this record!

        1 out of 5 stars A brilliant guitarist but . . ........2004-04-29

        . . . as another reviewer mentioned above, this recording is a disappointment. I purchased this CD when I saw him live and was pretty excited to listen to his newest recording considering he's a very talented musician. Little Lion is a super instrumental album and I hope he does more like that!

        5 out of 5 stars A long-time fan, and I love it.......2003-12-20

        I saw Brooks in concert not too long ago, for about the 5th time, and he mentioned that he's gotten hate-mail from people about this album. It's definitely a departure, but I love it. I've kept it in my car for weeks at a time, and I mean listening to it twice a day.

        Brooks is paying tribute to his extremely rich set of influences on this album. He admires the music from when pop used to be a GOOD word, instead of evoking images of mostly naked teenagers dancing with large snakes.

        Sonically, this album is fat and sassy. In contrast to the spare production of his other albums, which were largely Brooks's work, he's gotten a great producer to work with him on this one. The album is impeccably consistent from start to end, and I think Brooks was really happy with the process. He said "I was so tired of working so hard on recording the albums, I just wanted to hand over the reins and see what happened while I enjoyed playing music instead of nitpicking details." That's a semi-quote. In any case, the new producer really brought a lot to it -- I daresay he enjoyed having the free rein as much as Brooks enjoyed letting it go. The songs are pretty densely arranged as a result, with (gasp!) electric guitar and a very different set of hooks (guess who? Yes, Mr. Producer helped arrange and sits in on the electric guitar).

        Brooks's voice is also recorded quite differently from past albums, which gives it a breathier sound, a bit closer to you but a bit standoffish as well. It works well, much better than my description, which is sort of like dancing about architecture, if you know what I mean. This is a tough review to write!

        The songwriting is stock Williams, really solid lyrics and music. It's only different in that a) it's not the same songs and b) it's produced differently. If you know what I mean, you know that this is a strong compliment.

        All in all, one of my favorite albums. Do yourself, get a copy, a pair of Sennheisers, and spend an evening with it. Write back if you're not convinced.

        5 out of 5 stars A real departure for Brooks.......2003-04-16

        I'm surprised at some of the reactions to this album. There's so much to like about it. It has a bit more of a pop sound than his early stuff, but I love it. "Forget About Him" and "Half the Grace" would be top tens on the charts if the music industry sold music instead of images or clothing.

        I didn't really need to hear another version of "Mother Earth," but other than that there isn't a wasted moment on the album. Also, the production on this album just blows away any of his previous albums. Phil "The Funk Monster" Madeira and his B-3 organ are a perfect match for Brooks' style.

        1 out of 5 stars Sorry to say I agree........2003-04-06

        I've enjoyed Brooks for many many years, with the highlights being North From Statesboro and Knife Edge, IMO. Actually, Little Lion is pretty amazing too -- glad he finally did an all-instrumental album. I have no idea what happened here, like another reviewer. His voice is very muted on all the songs, like he's whispering almost every song -- a singing style I've never heard him do recorded or live. And it just doesn't work. The songs themselves are good; he did a super live show recently that I enjoyed immensely. This recording, however, is a great disappointment. And trust me, it hurts to say bad things about someone whose music I've enjoyed so much over the years.

          Album Description

          Musical humorist, serious vocalist, Kacey Jones, deftly mixes clever commentary with flat-out great sound on this, her first-ever, LIVE solo CD. Recorded before a sold-out crowd at the legendary Bluebird Cafe' in Nashville, here's what co-producer and engineer, Vaughn Skow, has to say: "I've recorded many LIVE albums, but never one like this. No words can adequately describe the manner in which Kacey dominated the room that night. It was truly electric and proves, once again, that a great entertainer needs no more than an acoustic guitar and a microphone to produce magic." Four bonus studio tracks round out this fabulous FUN-filled evening with Miss Jones.
