It's easy to understand why Joe Lovano is the most admired tenor saxophonist under the age of 50 in jazz today. The 43-year-old Cleveland native has the thick, burnished tone of swing giants such as Ben Webster and Lester Young, yet he is completely comfortable with the open structures and radical harmonics of such members of the vanguard as David Murray and Bill Frisell. In Lovano's playing, you can hear the essential unity of the jazz tradition. Seldom has that unity been illustrated with as much lucidity or feeling as on Lovano's Rush Hour, a brilliant album which should expand his following from critics and fellow musicians to a much wider audience. Rush Hour is an unusual album, for nine of the 13 tracks were arranged and conducted by Pulitzer Prize-winning classical composer Gunther Schuller. For four ballads, including Ellington's "Prelude to a Kiss," Schuller backs Lovano with a jazz combo and a string orchestra which thickens the atmosphere without sweetening it. For four more vigorous works--including two extended Schuller compositions plus a movement from the Charles Mingus "Epitaph" symphony which Schuller resurrected--the conductor backs the saxophonist with a brass, reed, and woodwind orchestra which features some dazzling clusters of low-pitched clarinets and high-pitched saxophones. Coleman's ballad "Kathline Gray" is arranged as a jazz chamber piece for soprano sax, cello, harp, guitar, bass, and drums with gorgeous results. Lovano completed the album with three of his own compositions plus Billy Strayhorn's "Chelsea Bridge;" on these he multi-tracked various reeds and drums himself and added some truly adventurous scat singing by his wife Judy Silvano. In its perfect pairing of a major jazz voice and an uncommonly imaginative orchestrator, Rush Hour reminds one of nothing so much as Miles Davis's collaborations with Gil Evans. --Geoffrey Himes

        It's certainly not news anymore that soundtracks have a life of their own, far independent of their cinematic tie-in. In fact, it's highly likely that fewer than half of the songs on this soundtrack appear in the movie; after all, there needs to be some time for dialogue and plot. Nevertheless, these compilations--let's call them what they are--serve a vital purpose, since, with the exception of prog rock, singles are more important than albums, and a good collection of singles beats a few good songs and a smattering of filler by a single artist. However, what can be said about a handful of good singles sprinkled amid indistinct and mediocre tracks from a variety of high-profile artists? That's the problem on the Rush Hour soundtrack. Dru Hill, Jay-Z, Ja Rule, Too Short, and the duo of Snoop Dogg and Slick Rick are the few highlights in the 70 minutes of music here, while Montell Jordan, Wu-Tang, Jon B, and others mail it in. I guess that's why they make CD players programmable and sell them with remotes. --Martin Johnson

          4 out of 5 stars The rush is back.......2002-12-30

          Lalo Schifrin, after his success with the first Rush Hour film, returns again to score the sequel. I gave the first score 5 stars and this one 4 because the first one had the better music, but this one sounds much, much better. The first one contained more of guitars and synths and things of that nature with an orchestra. This one contains primarily a symphony orchestra which makes it sound so much better. The main theme is back, this time in a much more orchestral manner with Asian style percussion and woodwinds. "Out of the Way" is an exciting action cue containing great brass punches and thrilling string lines. "Mu Shu Parlor" contains Schifrin's Chinese like music that he used in the first film. "Parlor Fight" contains some meaty brass, Asian type woodwinds, and powerful percussion. "Isabella" contains a sultry love theme and "Nevada Mood" utilizes a jazz ensemble. "The Cosmo Is Las Vegas" contains big band type music along with pounding drums in a Chinese like fashion. The last 3 tracks contain some good action music. 2 tracks in the middle, "Lil' Darlin" and "Shiny Stockings" could have been left out because they do not really fit well into the music, except maybe "Nevada Mood". The orchestra does a nice job doing the music and i'm looking forward to Schifrin's work on Rush Hour 3 (if there is one, which I hope there is).

          5 out of 5 stars Some of the best film music around.......2001-10-06

          Perhaps the most intriguing part about this amazing music is the great difference from the first movie in the series. I found that this music was even better, considering Schifrin used a Symphony Orchestra instead of an orchestra with guitars and other fancy stuff. The music is outstanding; it simply depicts the movie so well behind the hilarious actions and remarks of the film's two main actors. The main theme is outstanding, especially the opening part of the movie. When such a great theme is used and changed in the movie according to the given mood, there is a successful film score. It blows my mind how such beautiful orchestral music can peacefully exist with the comedic, changing plot of the movie, where there are many other musical features as well. The excitement of the score is its truly best feature; the first movement takes you into Hong Kong, making the movie sound like a journey and such. This, along with the score to the original Rush Hour, are fabulous works and need to be bought by anyone who simply loved the movie or that loves new and interesting film music!

              Features a blend of funky urban grooves and exotic Chinese instrumentations, puts the kick behind every wisecrack and close call Chan and Tucker endure. His main theme sets the stage with a wildly exciting collage of guitars, Asian scales, mysterious chord progressions, tom-tom crashes, and a driving beat. Aleph Records.

              5 out of 5 stars What a debut.......2002-10-15

              The songwriting is honest and emotional yet never cloying or trite. A great album.

              5 out of 5 stars Wonderful!!!.......1998-10-18

              Christine is an amazing artist, performer, and person. I listen to her CDs over and over. She understands women so deeply. You will be thrilled with her beautiful music.

              5 out of 5 stars what more could you ask for?.......1998-10-05

              A fabulous cd by a fabulous artist. Christine Kane's talent is unquestionable. "This Time Last Year" showcases her phenomenal voice and guitar. Touching, ligthearted, intense, sexy, and funny, this cd is sure to work its way into your stash of favorites!!!

              5 out of 5 stars Amazing music, amazing lyrics.......1998-05-05

              I honestly believe (and earnestly hope) that Christine Kane is an up-and-comer whose name everyone will know very soon. Her voice, her guitar playing (and that of fellow guitarist Richard Birt), her sheer ability to capture incredible emotion into every song, have caused reviewers to compare her to the Indigos, Shawn Colvin, and Mary Chapin Carpenter. And she's at least as talented as any of these. This album, though somewhat spartan in arrangement, features some truly great songs and while more orchestration would be fine, it's completely unneeded. They're songs you feel completely comfortable in from the first time your hear them, like your favorite chair. Ms. Kane's ability to understand human emotion and her capacity for what Tom Robbins calls "joy in spite of everything" make her albums indispensable for anyone even remotely interested in the best of the modern acoustic world.

              5 out of 5 stars sexy, calming, energizing!.......2001-07-11

              This is not "smooth jazz" in the nauseating sense made famous by certain clarinet players. This rocks. Groovin' baseline, hot licks, great variety of rhythm. This CD is my preferred favorite, many nights running, after fighting L.A. traffic all the way home. Sexy, calming, energizing, -- if someone could bottle what this CD does for me they would make a mint! (You gotta try it!)

              5 out of 5 stars Savage is the classic example of one who loves what they do.......2001-02-11

              I first heard his work on the Rocky Mtn. PBS production of "Colorado Landscapes." Not knowing who the guy was after a million times watching the video I decided I needed to search more into this master of the flute and sax.

              Well, three CDs later "Rush Hour" is the best sampling of his range. Pieces like "Wind River," "Scenic Route," "Coral Princess" and "Innuendo" are absolutely worth listening to over and over again. This is not just smooth jazz but a group of songs that make you feel good. "Wind River" makes me think of floating down the Colorado River or driving through the canyons of Western Colorado, soulful and strong.

              I highly recommend this CD even if you have never heard his music before. His music brings civility to your daily insanity.

              5 out of 5 stars Rush Hour is as Good as Smooth Jazz Gets!.......2001-01-31

              Bryan Savage has long been a great sax and flute player and a good composer. Now he has gone to the next level with Rush Hour... it's got great compositions, great playing, and great arrangements/production of the tunes. These are the kind of songs that you expect to be used in good movie scenes. The title cut smokes, and I predict will go high on the jazz charts. My favorite tracks are: Rush Hour (you can't sit still to this one), Scenic Route (dreamy), Wind River (sexy tango), Innuendo (haunting), and the remix of Coral Princess (3rd Force at its best). Bryan has included remakes as usual--this time excellent jazz versions of Sunny and My Cherie Amour. This is one great blend of smooth jazz numbers, and there's not one on the CD that you will want to skip.
