please give it up for roberson.......2007-07-05

To me this is the best R&B cat never to blow up. I can't imagine what it is that people want from r&b. It is not hip hop even though that's the only way people tend to identify it. He's too good to fall through the cracks. My favorite track is without question "Too Soon". His ability to flow over smooth music with heart felt lyrics without sounding like a huge cornball is magical on this track along with the rest of the CD.
Too bad radio is too busy riding the jocks of the dirty south to give true talent some play on their tired programs. The music industry is depressing to a true music lover. Pick up this CD and you can feel free to respond to me however you want if you don't like. This is SPLENDID work by this brother. By the way another loved track is "Pretty Girl". Just go get it.

Open your Eyes to Real Soul Music!!!!!!!.......2007-04-04

All I need to say is buy this disc...Eric Roberson-Left is Classic Soul at it's best. From start to finish you will not be disappointed. Couldn't Hear her, and Pretty Girl are outstanding. If I could this disc would get a 10.....One of the best soul cd's this year.

COP THIS!!!.......2007-04-01

I first saw Eric perform live on an obscure television show called 8101, off of the Colors network. From that time, I have been on an independent mission to cop his work. To say Eric has a beautiful voice would be stating the obvious. What is most impressive is that he writes most of his music, which judging from the CD liner notes, are based on real experiences. Having said that, whatever emotion, Eric felt when writing the songs is absolutely captured in the texture and tone of his voice. This is some real, non digitalized, homegown w/o hormones singing. Yes, it has been said that neo soul is Dead... Perhaps, but Eric is literally the second coming of neo soul. Not one song on this album is bad, even the experimental bonus track, which reminds of a tune from the 80's. The lyrics are outstanding. Please step outside the R n B box, I promise you won't be disappointed!!!

History in the Making..........2007-03-17

If there's anyone who doesn't know or you've never heard of Eric Roberson some how, he is the leading voice in the underground soul scene. He sure does not disappoint with his latest project "LEFT". I've never heard songs filled with so many different views, emotions, and character. You'll find a song for ANY situation you've might have went through or are going through.
"Music" the title track is a great opener. Eric does a great job bringing you in to the true meaning of what music is all about...

"Pen Just Cries Away" another outstanding song, is about someone who because of his last relationship, he can't help but write in the sad mood he's in. THAT IS SO TRUE (for any writers out there...)

"ILuvU2Much" another classic feat the talented and beautiful Algebra, explains that no matter how hard it is to walk away from a relationship you have to love yourself enough if it's hurting you. Nice uptempo duet..

"Pretty Girl" a smooth tune, talks about a girl who doesn't know how to get by in life without using her beauty. And Eric trying to school her on why she shouldn't and what could happen to her... The way he sings with sympathy for her is crazy good...

"Open Your Eyes" says it all. Listen and you will definitely feel it after you do...

"The Baby Song" is one of the most original songs EVER. What a fun way to explain the process of the last moments before child birth. GENIUS.

I could go on and on because each song has it's own uniques story, and there is not one song you would skip over on this CD...

If you don't own this Cd yet or any of his music, please try it, cause I know it will change you perspectives on music. It changed mine...

Should be 10 stars.......2007-02-08

What is there to be said that the reviewers below have not already. As a trombonist, this is one of a handful of recordings that brings me to my knees. Fabulous playing, fabulous tone, fabulous intonation - Joe Alessi is world class. This is my favorite of his CD's, and I own them all. Trombone players: This is an essential recording.

Joseph Alessi.......2006-07-02

This record is mislabeled: it is really music played by Joseph Alessi, the principal trombonist of the New York Philharmonic. You should fix that. Joe Alessi's playing is a whole level above that of any other trombonist playing now or in the past. He is the first player of his instrument to deserve to be referred to as a major artist.

The Ideal Trombone Sound.......1999-09-13

Young trombonists everywhere - in my opinion, this is how a trombone should sound. Mr. Alessi has the perfect sound, the sound that every serious trombonist aims for. Though the C.D. doesn't boast a variety of music (it's predominantly 20th century American), it is all fantastic music, the best of its kind. The last track is amazing, five of the greatest trombonists around, all playing together, it's outstanding. Serious trombone students, this is a good addition to your C.D. collection. This is the sound to aim for.

Amazon.com

This collection of chamber works by contemporary African American composers offers a fascinating look at how history and musical languages interweave. Olly Wilson's "Sometimes" is a tremendous exploration of voice and tape, held steady by William Brown's tenor, which seems to extend its range warmly while fragmenting "Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child." T.J. Anderson's equally striking "Intermezzi," a trio for tenor saxophone, clarinet, and piano, presents assorted miniatures that come together improvisationally. Likewise, Donal Fox's contributions draw from "Intermezzi" and "Sometimes," inverting and interrogating constructions in freely improvised segments. David Baker's "Through This Vale of Tears" is a lengthy song cycle, using Brown's tenor, Vivian Taylor's piano, and a string quartet in a tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. It's wonderful to hear how 20th-century classical techniques merge with sonorities gleaned in part from avant-garde jazz. --Andrew Bartlett

Album Description

This new release celebrates the explosively visceral sound world of Stefan Wolpe (1902-1972). Regarded by specialists as among the elite of mid-century modernists, Wolpe's compositions of the 50's and 60's can be heard as developing in sound many of the ideas championed on canvas by New York's Abstract Expressionists.

This disc includes the premiere recordings of two late Wolpe scores - Quintet with Voice (1957) and Piece in 3 Parts for Piano and 16 Instruments (1961); as well as Wolpe's early Suite im Hexachord (1936.

intelligent music.......2005-10-08

Sorry about the pompous title but I implore you to listen to this man's music.All his work contains moments of lyrical brilliance and beauty.Enthralling storytelling from an artist whose relative lack of fame is incomprehensible.Listen to all the records but this live set is a good introduction that should seduce you.
