◎华尔街日报：「Leon Bridges的声频令人忆起60年代灵魂使者Otis Redding和Sam Cooke动人佳音。」
◎入选纽约时报「2015年最为期待专辑」；获得各媒体Uncut(4/5)+NME(8/10)+Mojo(4/5)+Q(4/5)+Clash(8/10)等高分评价
华尔街日报：「Leon Bridges的声频令人忆起60年代灵魂使者Otis Redding和Sam Cooke动人佳音。」来自乔治亚州首府亚特兰大，现年26岁的Leon，充满历经风霜的超龄嗓音，挟带大量浓郁迷人的灵魂韵味，同时沾染福音和蓝调气息。年轻时期就不断精进自己创作与吉他弹奏能力，虽然在当地餐厅驻唱，为了讨生活费，还得兼差做起洗碗工，直到被Columbia Records签下后，这位差点被埋没才华的年轻人，终於可以一展长才，让眾人听到如此老灵魂回归的感动！
入选纽约时报「2015年最为期待专辑」名单的《Coming Home》，Leon舍弃华丽现代录音室技巧，一切回归传统乐器设备和录制方式，企图营造出60-70年代的声调质感，也没有人气制作群或乐手助阵，甚至啟用许多当地杰出表演艺人演奏。流有老灵魂纯度的〈Coming Home〉闭上眼睛，回味这一份复古的无限美好以及浓浓的乡愁味；时光继续倒转的〈Better Man〉享受完全纯朴的真实感；如丝绸般柔软滑顺的〈Smooth Sailin`〉突显摩城之音的精彩；描写母亲接受基督受洗仪式的〈Lisa Sawyer〉同时加入Doo-Wop和音为素材，这一切的温暖音场，怀旧美妙旋律令人无比倾心，无怪乎获得媒体的一面倒推崇，分别送上Uncut(4/5)+NME(8/10)+Mojo(4/5)+Q(4/5)+Clash(8/10)等高分评价！

Halie Loren -《Stages》(忘情喝采～现场实况录音)[FLAC] 专辑英文名: Stages

专辑说明:
●拥有美丽外型与好嗓音的爵士女伶 声音表情细腻丰沛
●获Just Plain Folks『年度最佳爵士人声唱片』大奖
●亚马逊网路书店Amazon.com 乐迷推荐5颗星人气高评价
●收录16首顶级爵士发烧名曲 推荐曲"Free To Be Loved By Me"、"Danger in Loving You"
这位来自美国阿拉斯加的爵士女歌手，从早期《Full Circle》、《They Oughta Write A Song》、《After Dark》、《many times, many ways》直到《Heart First》5张专辑，虽然不算是多产，但稳定持续的发片量是很难得的，足以证明专辑销售及音乐演艺实力正逐步向巨星之路推进。
深受Etta James、Nat King Cole、Ella Fitzgerald等传奇爵士巨星影响，青少年时期开始接触Sarah McLachlan、Jewel、The Cranberries等流行乐，因此她在经典爵士与流行音乐之间取得平衡，开始刻划属於自己的独特风格。
新专辑《Stages》是二年前分别在2场现场演唱会上录制，荷莉再次展现詮释古典和爵士功力，像是改编盖希文"Summer Time"；"Love Me Like A River Does"声线质地细腻入微，舒展性绝佳；"Sunny Afternoon"营造俏皮有点娇蛮感；"Free To Be Loved By Me"由她谱写一段心碎恋情；"They Oughta Write a Song"的洗鍊感性；此刻快来聆听现场演出，体验知性与感性兼备的荷莉罗琳。

引用Jazz singer/songwriter Halie Loren provides a well-rounded sense of her musical style on her first live album and third album overall, Stages. Although she does not play an instrument, she fronts a piano-dominated quartet featuring keyboard player Matt Treder (who also chimes in on vocals occasionally), bassist Mark Schneider, drummer Brian West, and trumpeter Tim McLaughlin. The combination of the prominent piano and Loren's supple alto voice inevitably suggests Diana Krall. But Loren has a somewhat lighter, less mannered sense of phrasing, and less of a hardcore jazz sensibility. Call her singing style Krall with a flavoring of the less serious side of Joni Mitchell, then. In addition to a few of her own songs (among them "Free to Be Loved by Me," co-written with songwriting veteran Rick Chudacoff), Loren addresses a range of material from traditional jazz fare like "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Summertime" to rock standards like the Kinks' "Sunny Afternoon" and U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For." She brings up what may be her own female vocal heroines with "Ipanema" (Astrud Gilberto), "Cry Me a River" (Julie London), and a version of Patti Cathcart' (of Tuck & Patti) amusing "High Heel Blues," rendered a cappella. Her backup musicians are given most of the jazz duties, and while Loren employs enough unusual line readings to justify the "jazz" tag herself, it's her accompanists who really make this a jazz recording. ~ William Ruhlmann

Halie Loren: Stages (2012)

Halie Loren: Stages
The studio is a safe place for musicians looking to birth an album in a controlled environment, but the stage is the real proving ground for performers. These people make their mark when lights are low, nerves are tested and safety nets are removed. This is where the real deal musicians get separated from the great pretenders and vocalist Halie Loren is as real as they come.
Loren, who may be the best-kept vocal secret in the Pacific Northwest, put out this low-key live album in 2010, but her reach was limited and it went largely unnoticed. Now, with the release of her head-turning Heart First (Justin Time, 2012), Loren's new label is fanning the flames of interest by reissuing this album with a few bonus tracks tacked on for good measure.
Her three-pronged approach to programming, which includes standards, pop pieces co-opted for jazzier purposes and originals, serves her well here. She jumps from U2 ("I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For") to Antonio Carlos Jobim ("The Girl From Ipanema") to Hoagy Carmichael ("The Nearness Of You") with apparent ease. She delivers classic material like "Cry Me A River" with polish, unlocks the potential that exists within The Kinks' "Sunny Afternoon" and taps into her inner-Sarah McLachlan on "Free To Be Loved By Me," which proves to be the most memorable original on display. Risky material choices occasionally meet with mixed results, as "High Heel Blues" proves to be a triumph while a tropically-infused take on Pete Seeger's "My Rainbow Race" is a bit too sugary, but Loren's willingness to move beyond the overdone is ever admirable.
Loren occupies the space that exists between pop and jazz, but that dual allegiance hasn't done her any favors in the past. Neither camp seemed willing to stake claim on her, but she deserves to be embraced by both. Now, with this live reissue following on the heels of her strongest studio album to date, this matter will hopefully be rectified.
Track Listing: Danger In Loving You; Sunny Afternoon; I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For; More; Cry Me A River; The Girl From Ipanema; Free To Be Loved By Me; Is You Is Or Is You Ain't My Baby; Love Me Like A River Does; They Oughta Write A Song; High Heel Blues; Summertime; My Rainbow Race; I'd Rather Go Blind; Nearness Of You.

引用CD Review: Halie Loren’s “Stages”
Halie Loren
Stages (White Moon Productions)
By Brian Arsenault
It’s 2 a.m. when I put on Halie Loren’s reissue Stages, so I keep the volume low as to not bother Kath. Doesn’t matter. Loren’s voice comes through soft but contralto clear as always; impeccable phrasing, melodious poetry emerging from the little player on the cabinet.
The cat Sage comes in after the piano introduction to the first song, “Danger In Loving You,” and sits on the carpet to listen as soon as Halie’s voice comes up. She doesn’t often do that. As soon as the song ends, Sage heads for her food dish but she comes back for “Sunny Afternoon,” the second song.
Halie Loren has that effect on audiences, it seems of all creatures, on this album recorded at two separate concerts a couple years ago. “Danger In Loving You” is sung regretful while “Sunny Afternoon” is downright sassy. One thinks that Ray Davies would be pleased with her sense of the vagaries of life and the honky tonk piano.
Halie Loren
But I’m trying to be very careful about the use of words like sassy and sultry and sexy which are of course true about her singing but tend to obscure artistry with connotations of femme fatale. There’s a kind of sexism about dropping those words on a female singer, a “nice ass” quality that diminishes while delighting in a woman.
Halie Loren’s singing stands in its own right with a range of human emotion, the aforementioned remarkable phrasing, intelligent story telling, laughter and tears intermingling with accomplished technique.
She can go back to classics like the Gershwins’ “Summertime” and Hoagy Carmichael’s “Nearness of You” as if they were written for her and not decades before she was born. She shows that “Summertime” doesn’t need to be sung with a “do I shriek here” component. Not that she doesn’t hit it hard, she just knows where it’s soft.
Her version of “Cry Me A River” brings to mind Julie London’s biggest hit but with more edge. Anger and angst. The audience hoots its approval at the end. She explores the musicality of Latin language, Portuguese specifically, in “The Girl from Ipanema” and makes it fresh again. Bossa Nova steps may be resurrected.
In the middle of the album there’s a three song stretch that encompasses “Free to be Loved by Me” that she penned, about the heartbreak of love. Some of the notes will do that if the lyrics don’t. It touches at a deep level. It’s followed quickly by Billy Arnold’s teasing “Is You Is or Is You Ain’t My Baby” to quickly lift the mood. And then follows the moody “Love Me Like a River Does.” They call that range.
A favorite moment comes when she sings without accompaniment on “High Heel Blues,” laughing through it with the audience about high heel shoes that “go with everything in your closet.” It brings down the house.
Her aptly titled “They Oughta Write a Song” (from the album of the same name) introduced a lot of us to Halie. It’s an ironic take on love and life and belonged on this “live” album. Actually, I prefer “concert album.” What singers and musicians do in studios is live too, isn’t it, even when overproduced.
But let’s close with a consideration of recorded in the club albums. Ever hear one where you wince once in a while over a false note, mistimed solo, or too quick pacing? Not here. Her sidemen led by pianist Matt Treder are perfect support and I guess you know by now what I think of Loren‘s singing.
To see a terrific singer “live,” as they say, is a great but ethereal experience; quickly gone, vanished from your eyes and ears, just a memory. Fortunately for your ears and soul, this one is here whenever you want to listen.

专辑简介：
★她浑厚低沈而带有磁性的嗓音像Nina Simon、Carmen McRae、Sarah Vaughan找到传人，呈现一张柔情似水的专辑，带您走过九首经典爵士作品的美丽梦境。
黛安娜克瑞儿就像许多后来走上音乐之途的艺人一样，从小生长在音乐家庭，她的父母皆精通钢琴，她的父亲并狂热收集唱片，从父亲那她认识了大胖子钢琴大师Fats Waller，她努力学习，希望自己能像他一样边弹边唱。之后她进入音乐学校，正式学习古典钢琴，并在课餘和贝斯教师Bryan Stovell一起玩爵士钢琴，她的第一场演出就是15岁时在家乡的一家小餐厅中演出的。之后她将注意力集中自己喜欢的爵士乐上，她持续研习相关课程，并尝试一些客串性演出，在这些过程中，她遇到不少乐手，如贝斯手John Clayton、钢琴家Jimmy Rowles、Jeff Hamilton及Ray Brown等，这些亦师亦友的伙伴，不但在她早期专辑《Stepping Out》中跨刀，更引导Diana发挥她的才能，让她渐渐朝自己目标努力－成为一个能弹能唱的全能型歌手。
这张Diana Krall最新的专辑《Only Trust Your Heart》不管是带有蓝调倾向的作品，或抒情曲，或Swing作品，都在Diana浑厚而低沈且带有磁性的嗓音中，带人走进一场柔不可化的美丽梦境，加上Diana出色的琴艺，以及Ray Brown、Christian McBride、Lewis Nash、Stanley Turrentine等优秀乐手协助下，交出一张漂亮的成绩单。
Diana和制作人Tommy Lipuma细心挑选了合适的经典作品，如〈Is You Is Or Is You Ain’t My Baby〉是大师Louis Jordan的R &B代表作；〈Only Trust Your Heart〉这首同名曲通常被人用Bosa Nova方式詮释，可是在Lewis Nash和Diana纤细的鼓声、琴音下，呈现令人心动的温柔美感；〈I Love Being Here With You〉这首Peggy Lee的老歌，Diana有全然不同的演出：〈The Folks Who Live On The Hill〉这首歌唤起Diana对双亲的感觉，令人似乎看到一对情人走过岁月而情愈弥坚的温馨画面；〈I’ve Got The World On A String〉是爵士作曲家Harold Arlen的作品，他是Diana最欣赏的作曲家之一，她甚至考虑要做一张全是Harold作品的专辑；〈All Night Long〉原是Nancy Wilson和 George Shearing合唱曲，这首歌在谈梦想， Diana形容和自己最敬仰的乐手合作，就是她的梦想成真。在爵士的市场中，我们最缺乏的就是令人心动的女伶，以及真诚动人的作品，透过这张专辑，我们很骄傲得告诉你，我们帮你找到－Diana Krall。

AllMusic Review by William Ruhlmann [-]
Canadian singer/pianist Diana Krall moved up to an American major label, GRP Records, with her second album, Only Trust Your Heart, having made her debut, Stepping Out, with the Canadian independent Justin Time Records two year earlier. The approach is basically the same, although her supporting musicians are different. Tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine sits in on three tracks, "Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby?," "I Love Being Here with You," and the Ray Brown instrumental "CRS-Craft," but otherwise this is piano trio music, with drummer Lewis Nash and either Brown or Christian McBride on bass. Krall is a neo-traditionalist with a legitimate pedigree detailed by Michael Bourne in his liner notes: an isolated upbringing in British Columbia, playing her father's Fats Waller 78s; classical piano lessons while playing in the school jazz band; a Vancouver Jazz Festival scholarship to the Berklee College of Music; a Canadian Arts Council grant to study with Jimmy Rowles in Los Angeles. The result is a performer steeped in traditional acoustic jazz piano playing and singing, and Krall demonstrates her talents on this album, soloing freely on the tunes, which are mostly standards, of course, and singing in a sturdy alto. It says something about the state of jazz circa 1995 that, at age 30, such a performer was getting a big promotional push. Krall was much more than a pretty face and a wave of blonde hair playing old-fashioned jazz, but she was that, too. So, once again in major-label jazz, it was back to the future for a record that, for all intents and purposes, could have been recorded in 1954 instead of 1994, except, of course, that that would have been ten years before the artist was born.

继2012年荣登美国专辑榜Top 10大碟【The Midsummer Station】及创下全球超过五百万张销售的主打单曲“Good Time”，Owl City终於带著新专辑【Mobile Orchestra】回来了！在过去的作品里，Owl City的制作概念就是要让每一首歌曲都有著巧妙的关连性，非得一首接著一首聆听，但这次他想要来点不一样的。Owl City表示「我特别向过去习惯的制作方式说再见，让歌迷感受一个全新的我。所以这次邀请到不同领域的歌手合作，赋予专辑中每一首歌曲不同的风格及元素，也让我整整花了两年的时间，反覆琢磨每一个细节。」

这张【Mobile Orchestra】专辑的十首歌曲，代表著Owl City在流行电子乐界独树一格的创意及多元风格，期望带给歌迷更多的惊喜与突破。

日本Swing Journal金赏奖
(Swing Journal选定ゴールドディスク)
年轻钢琴巨星詮释美国最伟大歌曲作者柯尔波特作品，充满都会时尚风格的清新演奏。
身为美国当红的爵士钢琴家，比尔查拉普却仍然在Venus持续发片，可见他对日本市场的重视。这张专辑特殊之处在於比尔查拉普选择了全部演奏作曲家柯尔波特的曲子。年轻的比尔查拉普为何会选择柯尔波特这位已经作古近半世纪的作曲家？可能是因为电影「De-Lovely」让柯尔波特热潮再起，不过当然，柯尔波特的作品在这些年来从未停止被爵士艺人们翻唱、演奏。
柯尔波特生於1891年，由於家境富裕，一生过著衣食无忧的生活，并拥有极为多采多姿的社交生活。但是他对於音乐的热爱却让他背弃了家人期望的法律学位，光在离开耶鲁大学前，他就已经创作了超过三百首的曲子。不过真正让他功成名就的是电影「Night andDay」，在这部扭曲的波特半自传电影（完全不提他同性恋的倾向、还有杜撰的从军生涯）后，他的舞台剧作品才开始受人重视。他的著名歌曲多半出自舞台剧或是电影配乐。这些歌曲在发表当时多半不受重视，但是经过这么多年，这些歌曲的价值却愈发珍贵。柯尔波特上流社会的身分，让他的作品总带著永不褪色的时尚都会风格，正符合爵士乐的都会特性。
比尔查拉普的「纽约三重奏」班底有老牌贝斯手杰里昂哈特与鼓手比尔史都华，在编曲方面当然不会以钢琴为唯一主角，而是让三种乐器都有许多发挥的空间。像是「My Heart Belongs to Daddy」的贝斯主导前奏就让人耳目一新。由於柯尔波特歌曲个性使然，歌曲进行轻鬆柔情，比尔查拉普对於旋律的尊重让演奏极为流畅，百听不厌，让人对比尔查拉普三重奏未来的作曲家歌曲集计画更为期待。本张专辑在纽约The Studio录制，音效优异。本张专辑获得Swing Journal的金唱片推荐。

More excellent piano jazz trio from Charlap
By Edward Weeks Sager on July 19, 2007
Format: Audio CD
Bill Charlap is perhaps the greatest jazz pianist today. I can't get enough of him. These Japanese Venus recordings with 24 bit Hyper Magnum Sound are great, pristine and flawless, although sound very close-miked in a way that is a little unnatural. Small quibble for such fine listening pleasure. This is the fifth in a series beginning about 2001 with the New York Trio. It sure lets you hear the details and the music is wonderful. The selections here are tasteful and compatible - what a way to hear Cole Porter! Bill is up to his usual excellent form, and the trio working here plays this all Cole Porter standard session with such deep understanding of them as well as obvious enjoyment. He really does have an encyclopedic knowledge of jazz song from the American Songbook. It's great to listen to such excellent musicians having fun making great music together. If you haven't heard him before, I'd recommend starting with his latest 'Live at the Village Vanguard', which will wet your appetite for lots more. Enjoy this master of jazz song.
AllMusic Review by Ken Dryden
The New York Trio consists of pianist Bill Charlap, bassist Jay Leonhart, and drummer Bill Stewart, though it exists solely as a studio band for the Japanese label Venus, as Charlap's regular trio includes Peter Washington and Kenny Washington. Even though this band only meets occasionally in the studio to record yet another release in their prolific series for the Japanese jazz market, there is plenty of chemistry between the three veterans, while the nine songs from the vast Cole Porter songbook were likely to have been a part of each musician's repertoire long before these 2005 sessions. Charlap's lyrical piano style is quite effective, capturing the nuances of Porter's humor (even though none of his lyrics are heard), while the rhythm section gels nicely with the pianist. Highlights include a jaunty "My Heart Belongs to Daddy," a dreamy "Begin the Beguine," and a snappy "From This Moment On."

《写真心》Eva Cassidy的彩虹歌声
听见彩虹的声音〉
1996年11月，默默无名的Eva Cassidy因为皮肤癌离开人间，当时人们只能在美国华盛顿特区的几家民谣／爵士Club听闻此号人物，当年她才33岁。
现在，Eva Cassidy的音乐成为全球市场一致肯定的心灵歌声，她的「Songbird」专辑在今年三月登上全英专辑排行榜后座，最近更掀起全球抢购，除了亚马逊网站〈Amazon.com〉佳评如潮登记四月最畅销专辑之一，英国BBC民选统计的20世纪最伟大歌手名单，Eva Cassidy名列第21位，这股「Eva 热」连带使所有Eva Cassidy的专辑一时之间都令爱乐者大举蒐集，在流行歌坛可说是相当罕见的现象，美国权威娱乐周刊杂誌也在最新一期大幅报导Eva的种种故事。
或许冥冥中的安排，上天虽然赶著让Eva早些升天当天使，但Eva Cassidy动人的歌喉却还是保存下来，五年之后流传全球，包括在台湾的我们也感染到了，目前包括Power 989等电台或者是学术网路纷纷争相播送感动音符并传递Eva的歌声魔力。Eva的爸爸对她的成功也发表他的心情，「Eva从不想成名，她的热情都用在歌唱和艺术创作上」，当然，女儿不在身边仍让他难过不已，更何况女儿的音乐才情也都遗传自父母。
Eva的专辑大部分由美国独立厂牌Bix Street发行，故事是这样开始，99年BBC电台的DJ 制作Paul Walters无意从美国友人手上拿到Eva Cassidy 98年的「Songbird」专辑，Paul听到Eva Cassidy翻唱茱蒂嘉伦〈Judy Garland〉的〈Over The Rainbow〉后，觉得这是第一次有人可以把这首歌唱的毫不逊色原唱，甚至夺走茱蒂的光彩，当时〈Over The Rainbow〉在电台播送后，马上席捲英国，BBC接获数百通电话要求介绍歌曲，因为这是他们听过最迷人的歌声，不过一直到去年12月〈Over The Rainbow〉被用在BBC电视台大量放送并搭上英国慈善活动，完全引爆Eva Cassidy的歌声魅力，一时之间她的唱片在英国缔造销售奇蹟，不少歌迷在推荐Eva时更不忘叮嚀听她的歌可要準备面纸，很容易听了就想哭。
事实上，「Songbird」专辑并不是她身前最后的录音，却是收录过去「Eva By Heart」、「Live At Blues Alley」、「The Other Side」三张专辑精华佳作，从第一首现场翻唱Sting的〈Field Of Gold〉开始，每一个Eva唱出的音符，歌词也好，轻吟也好，都是深切感人，我觉得这已经不是「天籟」〈天籟或多或少遥不可及〉可以形容，因为Eva的歌声是接近心底，再加上Eva的吉他弹奏，「Songbird」成为一张毫无冷场的佳作无庸置疑。
谈到vocal，Eva厉害的是她演绎歌曲的范围宽广，在这部分是相当令人惊喜，不管是传统的流行乐曲、蓝调、爵士、民谣、灵魂、福音，她的嗓音变化万千，可是最难得的是，Eva的随性和自然可以驾驭每首她要表达的歌，像〈Wayfaring Stranger〉的唱功和情绪的完整，表达她的演唱企图绝非只是要cover歌曲，Eva Cassidy赋予歌曲全新生命，又如翻唱Fleetwood Mac女主唱Christine McVie的〈Songbird〉她从合声到弹奏几乎一手包办，歌声透露出清澈心灵的悸动，而演唱灵魂大师Curtis Mayfield的〈People Get Ready〉改以灵魂唱腔再搭上电吉他，整首歌彷彿带人回到过往时代的细致韵味，〈Oh，Had I A Golden Thread〉的福音能量又如划过天际的流星闪亮，Eva用她的生命灵魂再唱歌！
2000年唱片公司推出Eva Cassidy最后的作品辑「Time After Time」，收录了包括Paul Simon、Cyndi Lauper、Bill Withers、Joni Mitchell等人的经典作，想当然尔，这些经典到了Eva Cassidy的歌声中又传唱出不同感觉的贴心感动，也是另一张裘弟要推荐给大家的作品。
Eva Cassidy留著一头长髮，湛蓝的双眼，还有专辑上的插画作品，实在给世人无限的想念，Eva从不喜欢让自己商业化，坚持留在非主流唱片，总喜欢在星期天陪著妈妈骑著单车出游，享受自然，就像她的歌声一样，Eva唱出彩虹的色彩，而今天全球引发的Eva热潮证明好的音乐经得起时间考验。
Somewhere over the rainbow，我们听到Eva Cassidy！

AllMusic Review by William Cooper [-]
When Eva Cassidy passed away in 1996, she was barely known outside of the Washington, D.C., area. Raised just outside of D.C. in Bowie, MD, Cassidy gained a loyal audience in the D.C. club scene by building a reputation as a brilliant interpreter of popular songs. Whether taking on contemporary pop like Sting's "Fields of Gold" or classic standards such as "Over the Rainbow," Cassidy used her achingly beautiful voice to make seemingly hackneyed material fresh again. She did not wish to be pigeonholed into one particular style, instead choosing to sing material she loved. Eva Cassidy was blessed with musical diversity (her influences ranged from gospel to blues to folk) and a soaring, crystal-clear singing voice. Cassidy was a popular live attraction, performing in small D.C. clubs for several years, but she also participated in a number of infrequent studio sessions; after her death, both her live and studio work saw gradual release. Albums such as Time After Time and Eva By Heart finally exposed Eva Cassidy's music to a national audience, and her devoted fan base regards her as one of the finest vocalists of all time. While her place in American popular music is arguable, there's no denying the power of these recordings, and Cassidy seemed to have the magic touch to make anything she sang instantly memorable. Unfortunately, No Boundaries proves a gifted vocalist like Eva Cassidy can only do so much with bad material. The bulk of No Boundaries, a collection of previously unreleased studio recordings, was written by musicians Tony Taylor and David Christopher. The forgettable songs and producer Taylor's slick adult contemporary pop sheen mesh poorly with Cassidy's raw intensity. To make matters worse, painfully bad arrangements (the stiff drum machine synth-pop of "I've Got This Feeling" is particularly awful) make No Boundaries a frustrating listen. Since Cassidy is known and loved as an interpreter, it's not surprising that the best track on the album is the only cover; her version of Gerry Goffin and Carole King's "Natural Woman" is really the only redeeming factor of No Boundaries. Whether or not the material on No Boundaries was meant to see the light of day is questionable. Consumer demand for unreleased music from late artists with endearing appeal virtually guarantees record companies' frequent "raiding of the vaults" for "new" material. It doesn't seem to matter if the material is worthwhile, or if it measures up to an artist's usual standards. There are obvious reasons why "previously unreleased" recordings aren't released during an artist's lifetime in the first place. It's frightening to think that truly insufferable material from otherwise brilliant musicians might one day be "discovered" and thrust upon the public. No Boundaries isn't very good, but that certainly isn't Eva Cassidy's fault. It's possible everything she ever recorded will be released eventually, and it's also possible future Eva Cassidy albums will be worse than this one. Her fans will certainly jump at the chance to own this, but they too will notice No Boundaries simply doesn't measure up to Songbird or Live at Blues Alley. For the casual listener, No Boundaries is a poor introduction to an artist capable of so much more. Her fans deserve better, and so does Eva Cassidy.

巴尼．威良四重奏 - 纽约罗曼史 CDBarney Wilen Quartet - New York Romance
《日本SJ金赏奖》
编号：TKCV-35387/VHCD-2084
条码：4988008921632/4571292520843
这样的录音听起来芭乐依然，不过仍是属於我的爱听盘之一，参与乐手有：
Barney Wilen (ts, bts, ss)、Kenny Barron (p)、Ira Coleman (、Lewis Nash (d)
Barney Wilen 在这张 Venus 灌录的唱片，表演了 soprano、tenor 及 bariton sax 三种萨克斯风，可听性增加不少，再加上 Rudy Van Gelder 的巧手录音之下，及 Venus 当初全盛时期的 Venus Hyper Magnum Sound System 的 24bit 处理之下，更是巩固了这张绝对是为发烧片的地位。
第2曲 Cry Me A River，在他 soprano sax 的吹奏下，轻柔地又不是那么煽情，令我有点飘飘然的，这张是我早期所败入的 Venus 唱片，当初还是心一狠下所购入的 24K金版本，当初可能没听过 Barney Wilen 的唱片几张，又或许是听过 Miles Davis 那张 Ascenseur pour lechafaud 电影原声带的他，或许是封面那美女斜躺的风姿所吸引，当初听完，没有太多感觉，反而不若一张”较为正经”的爵士乐唱片，来得更吸引我。唱片太多就是有个好处，多年后拿起这张唱片来听，反而听起来像是听一张从没听过的录音。
刚刚我本来是听广播，还听著主持人光禹访问著导演陈可辛，现在却正在听这张甜死人不打紧的音乐，所以唱片一放到架上站卫兵，在不知怎样的因缘际会下，有可能好几年才会听到一次。
在听第5轨 Cole Porter 的名曲 You’d Be So Nice To Come To，我听了好久到听毕，我还是耳拙听不出来这曲的主旋律，而辩识不出曲目为何？说唱片的伴奏乐手，是图个掛名气大的乐手名称，做为专辑的名号，演奏乐器不一样，说谁是最佳男主角，也说不个準字，像这曲中的 Kenny Barron 还献出难得一见的快手，听起就令人耳目一新。
今晚爵士乐听起来特别有味道！

AllMusic Review by Richard S. Ginell
Alternating between soprano, tenor and baritone saxes in this collection of straight-ahead jazz for the Japanese market, Barney Wilen refuses to be pinned down to a single tone quality or approach, even on the same instrument. Among other things, he mimics the lagging phrasing of Lady Day on "You've Changed" on soprano, "Blues Walk" bumps along agreeably on baritone while "Old Devil Moon" is sustained and humorous, and "Mack the Knife" is converted into a glacial smoky ballad with almost casual nonchalance. Throughout, Kenny Barron gets acres of well-turned solo space -- it's practically his gig, too -- and Ira Coleman (bass) and Lewis Nash (drums) provide crisp underpinning. The further one goes in this collection, the more interesting and less predictable it sounds.

Grant Stewart
出生：1971/06/04 加拿大 多伦多
Grant Stewart从小就听很多像是Charlie Parker, Wardell Gray, Coleman Hawkins等人的音乐，因为他的父亲是爵士乐迷，是一位高中的英文老师与专业的吉他手，所以他从父亲那裏学习音乐，也常与父亲共同练习。
10岁开始吹奏中音萨克斯风，在14岁的时候师事於Pete Schofield，一位多伦多的乐团领队，Pete Schofield后来推荐他到Schofield大乐团里磨练与演出。17岁时转为专注於次中音萨克斯风，并开始与大师级的乐手演出，像是Pat Labarbara与Bob Mover，而Bob Mover也成为指导Grant Stewart的老师。
19岁时移居到纽约市，Grant Stewart接受Donald Byrd, Barry Harris, Joe Lovano等人的指导。而在纽约他与更多出色的乐手合作演出，像是Curtis Fuller, John Hendricks, Clark Terry, Etta Jones, Bill Charlap, Frank Gant, Dan Barret, Bob Mover, Brad Mehldau, Russell Malone, Larry Goldings, Peter Bernstein, Jimmy Cobb, Harry Connick, Mickey Roker, Arthur Harper, Jimmy Lovelace, Cecil Payne, Dick Hyman, Herb Geller, Al Grey。
Grant Stewart是个非常活耀的现场演奏的乐手，许多纽约是的俱乐部可以看到他的演出，像是Birdland, Smoke, The Ketano, The Jazz Standard, Fat Cat等。此外他到北美地区的许多地方，还有欧洲、日本、巴西、台湾等地。

Description: Winner of Swing Journal 2007 Best Production Award!!
Tenor saxophonist Grant Stewart, born in Toronto, Canada, in 1971, has been living and playing in New York for 17 years. Along with Eric Alexander, with whom he recently formed a group called Reeds and Deeds, he has become one of the more powerful voices on the jazz scene today. His tone is muscular, and his style is straight-ahead and melodic. Perhaps more inward-looking than the ever-so-extrovert-and-powerful Alexander, his solos draw you in instead of blowing you away.
This 2007 recording is the inaugural release of Birds Records, a new labed founded by experienced producer Shigeyuki Kawashima. With gratitude and friendship, Stewart wrote an original blues for him called "Kawa Power." The band members, who are all given ample solo spaces to show their talents, are all first rate. This is a thoroughly enjoyable, straight-as-it-can-be bebop album. No gimmicks!
Produced by Shigeyuki Kawashima. Recorded at Sear Sound Studio, New York, on May 30, 2007 by Richard Alderson.

标题[心得] The Shadow of Your Smile
时间Fri Apr 6 22:37:17 2007
而就在她的手指碰到我的衬衫的那一刻，洋子的表情变了。 她眼下的皮肤，像被装进去的灯泡点亮似地红通通的， 那是一张想笑又笑得不是很自然的脸。 我第一次看到女人这般表情。 — 村上龙《大逃亡》 那是一间藉由黯淡色彩所摆设而成的咖啡店。 它拥有并不是很新，卧起来却很舒服的沙发椅。 我总喜爱在这间咖啡店的角落躲藏著，一个下午大概就可以耗去半包烟。 听著Bill Evans弹奏的The Shadow of Your Smile的时候， 两位年纪大约三十好几的女人走进来店里， 一直掛著笑容的她们。我看著她们的笑容， 彷彿那笑声之中容杂著某种力量，打断了Bill Evans的旋律。 打断﹏了的旋律， 像是断了翼的天使一样，再也笑不出来了！ 等到Espresso的香味瀰漫在我的鼻前， 杯子里头的咖啡彷彿也对我笑著，它是在嘲笑些什么呢？ 我匆忙跑到骑楼前看著天空， 我想看看这时候的天空会不会落下个天使， 因为好奇著被打断了的旋律究竟会是怎样子的天使。 Maverick 2007/04/06 17:48 -- http://spaces.msn.com/d8929988maverick1982/ http://mypaper.pchome.com.tw/news/maverick08/ 那是在肆掠过后的踪迹 也是阴冷的锋锐表面 直到我被狠狠地呛击

日本Swing Journal金赏奖
(Swing Journal选定ゴールドディスク)
来自澳洲，弹唱俱佳的美女贝斯手首发个人专辑，演唱多首经典曲目，获得Swing Journal杂誌权威金唱片推荐。
贝斯是爵士乐界最庞大的乐器，因此这种乐器几乎都是男性的天下。妮基派洛特不但贝斯演奏技巧精湛，而且还有著一副醉死人的好歌喉，可说是爵士乐界最奇妙的音乐家。
出生於澳洲的妮基派洛特与吹奏萨克斯风的姊姊丽莎都是相当努力的音乐家。姊妹两人分别在1993与1994年获得澳洲政府赞助，到纽约深造。其中妮基拜师於著名贝斯手鲁佛斯里德（Rufus Reed）门下。妮基并且也是传奇吉他手雷斯保罗（Les Paul）开设的Iridium爵士酒吧的常驻贝斯手，每个礼拜一都与高龄超过九十岁的雷斯保罗共同登台演出。妮基也与许多爵士传奇人物如克拉克泰瑞、勃基皮萨瑞利等人同台，是纽约活跃的贝斯演奏家。
妮基四岁开始学习钢琴，求学期间持续演奏钢琴与长笛，但在15岁时因为姊姊的乐团需要一位贝斯手，因此转而演奏贝斯。大学时妮基在音乐学院就读，同时也与许多当地著名的爵士音乐家展开忙碌的巡迴演奏生涯。妮基除了演奏与演唱外，也曾获得爵士乐作曲首奖，可说多才多艺。在2001年，妮基与姊姊发行两人合作的专辑「Awabakal Suite」。
Venus唱片公司对妮基可说相当礼遇，在她首张个人专辑中请来了旗下当红的约翰迪玛悌农担任钢琴演奏，乐团还加入了在日本极受欢迎的萨克斯风演奏家哈瑞艾伦。在这样精彩的阵容下，妮基的专辑选择了十三首轻鬆雋永的爵士歌曲，其中大多是大家耳熟能详的经典，如「第凡内早餐」中由奥黛莉赫本在窗边唱出的「Moon River」、因为电影「一曲相思情未了」而再度走红的「Makin’ Whoopee」、纳京高的畅销曲「Besame Mucho」等等。当然，也有妮基自己的创作一首传统蓝调歌曲「Nicki’s Blues」。妮基在这些曲子中弹唱俱佳，几乎每曲都有她精彩独奏的机会，而妮基的歌喉乾净又轻鬆，让人想起著名钢琴家兼歌手Blossom Dearie。由钢琴、萨克斯风与吉他组成的伴奏班底让音乐听起来丰富多变化，难怪获得乐评们一致好评。

Description: Single Layer SACD = Ultimate Audiophile Edition!
Winner of Swing Journal 2008 Jazz Disc Vocal Award!
Swing Journal Gold Disc!
In 2014, the Japanese independent jazz label Venus Records began releasing its "best of the best" albums from its deep catalog on single layer SACD, the ultimate audiophile format. (Please note that single layer SACDs require an SACD player for playback. They will not play on a regular CD player.)
Australian-born and New York-based Nicki Parrot is a double threat: She can play the bass very competently, and has a singing voice that shares the relaxed sexiness of Julie London and the coquettishness of Blossom Dearie. She has performed and/or recorded with the legendary guitarist Les Paul, pianist Rachel Z and her sister Lisa Parrott.
Venus' producer Tetsuo Hara got to know Parrott when he recorded the Rachel Z band which included her. For this auspicious label debut CD, Parrott was teamed with wonderful musicians that include John di Martino, a wonderful pianist and arranger who has recorded several times for Venus. Paul Myers' guitar work is exemplary, and Harry Allen contributes with tasteful solos and obligatos.
As Jay Leonhart often says, many people believe it's impossible to play the jazz bass and sing at the same time. But Parrott, together with Kristin Korb on the West Coast, proves them wrong. This is a very enjoyable, straight ahead jazz CD with great singing and strong performances throughout. Recommended!
Produced by Tetsuo Hara and Todd Barkan. Recorded at The Studio in N.Y. on June 7 & 8, 2007. Engineered by Katherine Miller. Mixed and mastered by Tetsuo Hara. Gate-fold paper sleeve edition. Single Layer SACD.

Nicki Parrott is a premier jazz vocalist and string bass player. Born in Newcastle, Australia, Nicki started her musical training at age four with the piano, followed by the flute, soon after. Nicki switched to double bass at the age of 15. "Moon River" is Nicki Parrott's debut as a leader. The album received Swing Journal's "Best Jazz Vocal Album" award.
Another delight in my growing collection of Parrott's albums Sept. 16 2014
By Mike Tarrani - Published on Amazon.com
If you are a fan I need not say much, but if you are just now discovring Nicki Parrott and do not know which album to get this one is more up tempo than Fly Me to the Moon. On the other hand, that one has lusher arrangements that include her sister Lisa on both baritone and soprano saxophones. This one, though truly flows.
I've heard other albums she has released, as well as enjoyed live video clips of her with luminaries like Les Paul and Rossano Sportiello and this one has the energy of her live performances. Not that her other albums are not superb also because I would hate to have to choose just one.
What I love about this one is the arrangements are more straightforward and allow you to hear the many nuances she brings to songs. And nuances she brings becuase on a track like Cry Me A River she evokes Julie London's iconic delivery, but manages to make it her own as well. On Nicki's Blues her vocals are true blues and easily sells that particular song. In fact, I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite track, but Moon River and Takin' A Chance On Love keep popping into my head.
Sadly there are no sound samples on this page at the time of this review. You can hear some of the songs on this album if you search Youtube, but the entire album is so delightful that a few songs will only whet your appetite.
In addition to Nicki I have come to respect the pianist and the drummer (John Di Martino on piano and Billy Drummond on drums) who are on a lot of her albums. Both are excellent and as a fellow drummer I acknowledge Drummond as a true master who plays with a lot of taste. Tenor saxophonist Harry Allen is also on more than a few of her albums and is to her what Lester Young was to Billie (in my opinion - I am drawing an analogy instead of a comparison). Rounding out the ensemble here is Paul Myers who added a lot to the music.
Overall this is probably one of my favorite Parrott albums, if for no other reason than it showcases her versatility as a vocalist and a bassist. It also has more raw energy (to my ears) than her other albums - but that's just me.
