Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
On Jazz Family, the elegant Heath Brothers continue to exudes sublime group empathy and musicianship that's both exuberant and nonchalant. Drummer Albert Heath and bassist Percy Heath drive these mostly mid-tempo compositions with effortless swing and rhythmic ingenuity, while saxophonist Jimmy Heath soars in passionate reverie with his smokey tone. Complemented with a brass ensemble that includes such heavyweights as tuba maestro Bob Stewart, french hornist John Clark, and trumpeters Tom Williams and Earl Gardner, these plush arrangements and rich tonal palettes sometimes reminiscence the harmonic innovations of Duke Ellington, especially on originals like "13th House" and the beautiful waltz, "None Shall Wander." But the brothers don't forgo the improvisational gusto of bebop, as evident on the Coltrane-esque "A Harmonic Future." With Jazz Family, the Heath Brothers have delivered one of the most sensuous family reunions of the year. --John Murph

In 1981, trumpeter Wynton Marsalis and saxophonist Branford Marsalis burst on the scene as the young lions who started a jazz renaissance. They were followed by their younger brothers, trombonist Delfeayo and drummer Jason. Incredible as it sounds, they've never recorded together as a family. On August 4, 2001, at the University of New Orleans, they performed with their father, the esteemed pianist and educator Ellis Marsalis in a concert that marked his retirement from the school's jazz department. Supported by bassist Roland Guerin, the family delivers a swinging live program of standards and original works in trio, quartet, and sextet combinations. The elder Marsalis's pristine pianism colors his midtempo tune "Swingin' at the Haven," while Jason Marsalis's Afro-tinged intro peppers the standard "The Surrey with the Fringe on Top." Wynton and Branford declare their brotherly love on the saxophonist's Ornette Coleman-esque "Cain and Abel." Actor-singer-pianist Harry Connick Jr. joins in on the fun with "Twelve's It" and "St. James Infirmary." --Eugene Holley Jr.

Album Description
Recorded in southern Mali in the village of Farakala, Trilok Gurtu's new album is a unique and surprising production. Having explored for some time the similarities between Indian and African music, this is the first time that he has actually recorded in the sub-Saharan bush. The result is a subtle and deep Afro-Indian combination arrived at through combining south-Malian percussive styles with the rhythmic influences of his own Indian heritage. The originality of tracks like "Santour", "Di Blues", "Dougoukolo", and "Roots No Fruits" testify to the success of this mix.Profound, sensual, upbeat and liberating, this is an album of instinctive yet well developed styles that, as a result of Trilok Gurtu's innovative styles and erudition, escapes the cliché of being labeled just another fusion album…

On his third outing as a bandleader, Christian McBride exhibits the skills that make him one of finest young bassists in jazz. Produced by George Duke and accompanied by Tim Warfield on tenor saxophone, Charles Craig on keyboards, and Greg Hutchinson on drums, McBride indulges in a mixed bag of styles. Jumping from straight-ahead jazz to funk and '70s soul classics, McBride's imposing ability unifies his diverse musical repertoire. Playing both acoustic and electric bass with equal aplomb, he indulges in fusion instrumentals and sweet jazz ballads. Vocalists Will Downing and Vesta contribute soulful vocals and McBride interprets familiar songs by Stevie Wonder, Sly Stone, and the Spinners. While occasionally venturing into the lite-jazz realm, there are plenty of vivid musical moments on this recording. --Mitch Myers
