While Fletcher Henderson made the bulk of his important recordings for Columbia, gathered on A Study in Frustration, he also recorded some significant music for the Decca label, recording as both the Connie's Inn Orchestra and under his own name. There are two sessions from 1931 and three from 1934,and they all show Henderson's group as the prototype of the big swing bands. The eight tracks from 1931 are particularly interesting for their demonstration of the Henderson band's increasing ability to actually "swing," largely through the playing of drummer Walter Johnson and John Kirby's remarkably fluid tuba work. The band includes trumpeter Rex Stewart and tenor saxophonist Coleman Hawkins, whose dominant presence is apparent in the solo on "House of David Blues." There are 12 tracks from 1934 and there's increasing sophistication in the arrangements by Benny Carter, Henderson, and his brother Horace. Horace's aggressive arrangement of Fletcher's "Hotter than Hell" is the highlight, but there's always plenty of spirit from the band, which includes trumpeter Red Allen, clarinetist Buster Bailey, and a young Ben Webster striving to fill Hawkins's absence. --Stuart Broomer

Fletcher Henderson led one of the hottest bands of the 1931-34 period. While most of his competitors were playing society music or novelty songs, Henderson was putting out hotdance music, with jazz content and the music swung hard. A great cd that features the early 30's sides, and features some fine sidemen such as Coleman Hawkins and Red Allen. Icludes some jazz classics such as Hotter Then 'Ell, Radio Rhythm, and Wrappin it up. Exellent introduction to Henderson's hot brand of early swing, mostly due to Benny Carter's innovating arrnagements.

The "Toscanini" of Big Band jazz in great sound.......2000-02-20

Wow is this an amazing album. First off, the sound is really a revelation. The engineers have allowed all the sound on the 78s to come through, without destroying its clarity through bad noise reduction decisions. The music just jumps right out at you. Second, the music is really a revelation. The instrumental complexity of Fletcher Henderson's band, and its superb musicality and execution, are something I've not heard elsewhere. You never know what novel musical realm is coming next on these tracks---riffs, solos, themes, counter themes, all with sudden and stunning dynamics changes. Henderson is the guy who invented the Big Band in the 1920s. He and King Oliver were the first two jazz "uper groups" These recordings are vintage 1931-1934, and you can hear the transition here from 2-count style '20s jazz to 4-count Swing, from tuba bass to string bass. There are many great tracks for Lindy Hopping on this CD. Don't believe the lore that Lindy Hop music is slow Swing --- these dance tracks, including "he Lindy Glide"and "ug Cutter's Swing" all range from 200 to 300 beats per minute.

Great music!.......2006-06-28

In Denmark, where this reviewer is from, most people are familiar with names like John Abercrombie and Charlie Haden, considered of course that they are interested in jazz and related music, but not many have heard of Denny Zeitlin, and that's a real pity. Because this guy can really play and is what I would term a real pianist with a capital "P". Astonishing technique and control combined with great imagination, chord voicings and musicianship. This particular album is recorded in Chick Corea's Mad Hatter Studio and nicely produced by Lee Townsend. The music here really gels and Abercrombie plays his best greatly backed by Haden and drummer Peter Donald. The Style on the album varies a bit and where as the first and fourth track has a genuine fusion quality to it (I'm not scared of the word fusion) the remaining tunes are more in a jazz vein. But tunes are really melodic with a good atmosphere and never trivial. All compositions are by Zeitlin except for two tracks and moods vary from powerful to poetic and all the way through this album you'll find a wonderful interaction among the players. Music lovers should check this out - you wouldn't get disappointed.

Two Classic Frankie Paul Albums.......2004-12-28

Frankie Paul was one of the first wave of new artists from the Kingston Jamaica dancehall scene that emerged in the early 1980s. When I visited Jamaica in 1984, Paul's monster hit "Pass the Tu-Sheng-Peng" was on every turntable in every dancehall on the island.

Frankie Paul became a superstar in jamaica when he recorded "Tu-Sheng-Peng" a breezy celebration of the wonders of ganja complete with brass section that borrows George Harrison's sitar part from the Beatle's "Norwegian Wood."

The entire "Pass the Tu-Sheng-Peng album was a brilliant tribute of the production skills of sound system wizard Henry Junjo Lawes. Each song was initially released as 12" vinyl single. The Roots Radics, Jamaica's top ranking studio band, lay down the deep riddims and the eternal groove of Flabba Holt's bass and Style Scott's one drop drumming make "Tu-Sheng-Peng"a bonafide reggae classic.

This CD is a moderately priced twofer that combines Frankie Paul's first two albums. It predates the rise of slackness D.J. style and the sleng teng craze that all but ended the great age of old school reggae that Marley's conscious lyrics and roots riddims began. The second album included is "Tidal Wave" another chestnut that was the 1985 follow-up to "Tu-Sheng-Peng."

Frankie Paul is a brilliant musical prodigy with a powerful voice and the master of several instruments. Blind since birth, he was initially encouraged by Stevie Wonder who heard Frankie Paul play and sing on a visit to the Salvation Army School for the Blind. Frankie began recording at age 15, but "Tu-Sheng-Peng", at age 19, marked a turning point as he became a protégé of Junjo Lawes. Both of these albums are a delight for anyone who loves the roots and conscious reggae of the golden age.

Since the early 1980's Frankie Paul has been a fixture on the Jamaican reggae scene, but he doesn't do a lot of American touring except for concerts in larger cities of the east and west coast where he still is tremendously popular among both the Caribbean expatriate and American black communities. He deserves a wider audience and who knows?... Frankie Paul is still in his thirties which is still young in "reggae years." Burning Spear and Joseph Hill of Culture are both pushing 60 years of age and both have busy touring and recording careers.

To their credit, the venerable American music label, Greensleves, has remastered all of the early dancehall hits by Frankie Paul's without losing the big booming hi-fi sound of Junjo Lawes' original dancehall mixes which were originally released as 12" vinyl singles. If you are a fan of classic reggae riddims, it really doesn't get any better than this, folks.

Album Description

A CD of songs that kids AND their parents love! Written by songwriter Paul Reisler with 600 elementary school kids in rural Virginia, and recorded by over 30 professional artists (some internationally-known), all proceeds will fund music programs in the county. The songs are enchantingly diverse, musically superlative, and possess that elusive quality that all artists and producers hope for but rarely achieve: magic. Funny, fresh, and wacky.

Sperryville's hottest talents!.......2003-05-02

This album is wonderful and so much fun at any age. It is also a really great example of community coming together and utilizing its many creative talents. Buy it!

Great tunes that my kids & I all love!.......2002-07-01

My 2-year-old son, my neighbor's 6-year-old daughter and my 9-year-old stepson all LOVE this CD! The older kids play some of the songs over and over, and my 2-year-old just loves to bounce up and down on his bed listening to the CD. I can't believe kids wrote these songs, but on the other hand that may be why they're so fun for kids to listen to. The production is just stellar.

(POSSIBLY BIASED)An excellent piece of community work........2002-05-25

I am Brian "BJ" Ross. I am really pleased with how well this CD turned out. One cool thing about this CD is that I am on it. I love it. The music is of a huge variety of genres. My particular favorite song on the CD is "We Lost the Fight Song" It has catchy words, and the High-School band did a beyond-excellent job on the instruments. Virtually everything about this CD blew me away.I know most of the musicians, and I (as I mentioned earlier) sing various parts of this CD. I hope (1) everybody loves this CD, and (2) more communities collaborate, in great projects like that. WARNING: 4/19 of the songs are bluegrass. I think that should be known by any potential buyers who don't like bluegrass.

great album for parents and kids.......2001-12-15

I have found in this Tidal Wave of Song a cd of songs that are my songs, too. Kids and adults - we are all singing together. I wish more music - all music will be like this - full of spirit that knows no limits of age or imagination.

Wow! What a blast!!.......2001-12-12

This amazing kids'CD covers so many great styles of music, from electronica to folk to jazz. The songs are so creative and catchy, you'll find yourself singing things like "I like to eat purple pickled peppers" in no time at all. I know its supposed to be for kids, but I'm 33 and its a hit with me too!

This CD features alternate takes, unissued songs and other rarities by the Challengers. The Challengers were one of the most prolific (and best) of the surf bands of the 1960s. This CD shows that even on these takes that weren't considered "good enough" to be on an album, they sounded great. Surf music fans will enjoy this CD.
