Nadine Goellner - LIVE
An amazing LIVE blend of jazz, folk, and soul.
Nadine Goellner, a "songwriter & vocalist who artfully blends soul & jazz with her signature acoustic scatting" (The New Yorker), is releasing her first-ever live recording. The new live cd comes from a recording of a sold-out concert by Nadine & her ensemble at Mo Pitkin's in NYC March '06. The CD features 5 previously unreleased songs, along with new improvisational arrangements of songs from her critically-acclaimed studio CDs Sing it to Me Anyway & Remember My Name. Nadine is joined by her quartet, a stellar line-up of some of downtown’s finest jazz/pop players, including Anna Dagmar on piano, Bob Hart on bass, & Allison Miller on drums.

Ray Barretto Standards Rican-ditioned
The last recording session by the legendary conguero and band leader Ray Barretto - a straightahead jazz sextet session in the style of the Blue Note blowing sessions of the 1950s
On Standards Rican-ditioned, the legendary Ray Barretto presents a straight-ahead project with musicians of Puerto Rican descent well versed in jazz. The objective was to show that they could play in an authentic style of the old Blue Note, Riverside and Prestige dates of the 1950s and 60s, in song selections from the "Great American Songbook".
Recorded in December 2005, only a few weeks prior to his untimely death, it is the stunning yet gently farewell by the great conguero - no doubt a milestone in the musical life of Ray Barretto

Arturo O'Farrill Live in Brooklyn Highly virtuosic, contemporary Latin piano trio jazz with a New York vibe.
Flatbush Avenue cuts across Brooklyn. At its western tip, the avenue literally becomes the Manhattan Bridge, a vital entry point to the musical mecca of Manhattan. But Brooklyn itself has a rich cultural legacy. The Up Over Jazz Café, which sits atop a barbecue takeout joint, rests on the dividing line between two neighborhoods, Park Slope and Fort Greene, both home for generations to musicians, artists, and writers.
This recording captures a fiery piano trio performance on two sweltering August nights at the Up Over Jazz Café. Leading the group is Park Slope resident Arturo O'Farrill, a pianist whose own history cuts across a wide swath of jazz and Latin-music influences, and whose vision forms a bridge to new musical vistas. The son of the late Cuban bandleader and composer Chico O'Farrill, Arturo grew up on Manhattan's Upper West Side. Chico, who died in 2001, created some of the most significant and sublime fusions of Afro-Cuban music and American jazz. These days, his music is celebrated at Lincoln Center and elsewhere, most notably through two renowned orchestras under Arturo's leadership: the Chico O'Farrill Latin Jazz Orchestra, and the Lincoln Center Afro-Latin Orchestra. But it was not always so.

Bonnie Bramlett Roots, Blues & Jazz
Roots, Blues & Jazz" is the long-awaited comeback album by the legendary Southern Rock, Blues & Gospel vocalist Bonnie Bramlett.
Rock and roll scholars depict the Bonnie Bramlett tale as an epic drama, and it most certainly is. But what the cognoscenti sometimes miss is the extent of this towering singer’s contribution and her current role as one of America’s greatest interpreters of the soul, R&B and jazz songbooks, bar none. In an era of safe singers, when massaging the public consciousness with smooth sounds is a sure way to commercial success, Bonnie Bramlett’s joyous and soulfully hard-won vocals reflect a real life fully lived âˆ' bruises, beauties, and all. What will surprise anyone who has followed Bonnie’s career is that not only does Roots, Blues & Jazz find her singing up a storm, but that her vocals are consistently stronger than most nu-soul stars half her age, and astonishingly, she is only getting better.
