“A modern blues masterpiece.” — Real Blues

Roy Gaines is the greatest living blues guitarist that you probably don’t know anything about. He also possesses one of the most magnificent blues voices around. Born in Houston in 1937, Roy started playing the guitar as a teenager and soon developed a reputation as an instrumental prodigy. By 14, he was actually being invited on stage to play with the legendary T-Bone Walker during the latter’s live gigs in Houston and became known as T-Bone Jr. By his early 20s, Gaines was playing and recording with Roy Milton’s band in LA, but returned to Houston to join the Duke/Peacock blues label as a full time session guitarist on such seminal blues recordings as Bobby Bland’s “It’s My Life Baby” and Junior Parker’s “Driving Me Mad.”

This album is a loving and well-crafted tribute by Gaines to Walker, his close friend and personal mentor. Gaines has been described as “the greatest living T-Bone interpreter” by Jazz Times. The superb original recording released in 1999 is enhanced to even higher sonic standards by the SACD remaster. (more…)

Philipp Gropper is a German composer and saxophonist of jazz and modern creative style. Ultimately, Philm use Gropper’s themes as a way of goading the jazz language to its limits. All four band members are highly sensitised, lashed to a convoluted framework, but frequently escaping into the unpredictable dark corners of improvisation.

Philip Catherine & Martin Wind – New Folks (2014) [Official Digital Download 24bit/44,1kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · January 10, 2018 · Comments off

Belgian jazz guitar legend Philip Catherine and German bassist Martin Wind come from different generations but share a common love for melodic jazz with swing roots. On this album, the two musicians complement each other perfectly: Catherine’s playing is technically unique and never seems to stop revealing new lyrical guitar sounds, but it is not merely his technique and dexterity that set him apart. What makes him unique is his acoustic guitar sound and an improvisational style based not on other guitarists, but on some of the great horn players in jazz. Wind’s bass is always strong yet elegant and lush on this collection of standards and originals.

The album was produced by the Hamburg hip-hop artist and rapper Samy Deluxe and features a duet with Nena’s eldest surviving son, Sakias. Although published on Nena’s own record label, The Laugh and Peas Company, distribution rights were agreed with Sony Music, 22 years after the company dropped Nena as a recording artist following the indifferent performance of her second solo album “Bongo Girl”.

Neil Young & Promise Of The Real – The Visitor (2017) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · January 8, 2018 · Comments off

Neil Young’s first two collaborations with Promise of the Real, the band led by Willie Nelson’s son Lukas Nelson, sounded sorta like tethered Crazy Horse albums. But without the free-fall unpredictability of Young’s most reliable backing group of the past five decades, 2015’s The Monsanto Years and the following year’s embellished live record, Earth, came off like more structured attempts to capture Young at his most unhinged and plugged in. Their third record, The Visitor, is more of the same, and like The Monsanto Years and last year’s Peace Trail, it’s a political one, charged through a filter of recent news. (more…)
