Wednesday, August 2nd at 8pm:
Jazz Record Art Collective presents the Trevor Hill Sextet performing Harold Land's "West Coast Blues!", released in 1960.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Tenor saxophonist Harold Land leads an all-star sextet that includes guitarist Wes Montgomery, trumpeter Joe Gordon, pianist Barry Harris, bassist Sam Jones and drummer Louis Hayes. Together, they perform three of Land's originals, "Don't Explain," and Charlie Parker's "Klactoveedsedstene," and an early version of Montgomery's "West Coast Blues." The music is as well-played and swinging as one would expect from this superior bop group." ~Scot Yanow

Wednesday, August 9th at 8pm:
Jazz Record Art Collective presents the Christopher Dammann Quintet performing Charles Mingus' "THE CLOWN", released in 1957.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"A compelling masterpiece from Mingus, opening with one of his most memorable compositions, 'Haitian Fight Song,' but filled with interesting music throughout. Released at a time when most LP's were still collections of thrown together, independent songs, The Clown is the very rare exception that feels like a unified musical experience...From start to close, the whole record is propelled by the dexterous, bluesy playing of Charles Mingus. A strange and forward-thinking record."
~Kenneth Bridgham

Thursday August 24th at 8pm:
Jazz Record Art Collective presents the Chris Madsen Plus 14, with Orchestra conducted by Joe Clark, performing Wayne Shorter's 1995 release HIGH LIFE.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Wayne Shorter's debut for Verve was his first release as a leader in quite a long time and his most rewarding recording since the prime years of Weather Report...Shorter and keyboardist Rachel Z spent a year working on developing and orchestrating his ideas and the results are these nine originals...The pieces set moods rather than state singable melodies, are not afraid to utilize electronic rhythms now and then in an unpredictable fashion, and are both intelligent and largely danceable...It helps for listeners to have a liking for the sound of Weather Report (even though this group is not a copy), but even Shorter's older fans will find his playing here to be quite stimulating." ~Scott Yanow

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present a livestream and in-person performance featuring the  Bradfield/Madsen Quintet performing Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis and Johnny Griffin's "Tough Tenor Favorites", released in 1962. The evening will also feature live painting from visual artist Abena Motaboli.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Johnny Griffin and Eddie 'Lockjaw' Davis, the two "tough tenors" in question, always made for an exciting team. With pianist Horace Parlan, bassist Buddy Catlett and drummer Ben Riley completing the quintet...., Griff and Lockjaw are in top form and quite competitive on a variety of standards. Highlights include "Blue Lou," "Ow," "I Wished on the Moon" and "From This Moment On." The main winner in these fiery tenor "battles" is the listener." ~Scott Yanow

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present the Eric Binder Quintet performing Milt Jackson's "Wizard of The Vibes", released in 1952. 

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"The music on Wizard of the Vibes features Milt Jackson with the Thelonious Monk Quartet in a 1948 session combined with a 1952 date with his bandmates from the Modern Jazz Quartet... the chemistry between Jackson and Monk on classics like "Misterioso," "Evidence," "I Mean You," and "Epistrophy" is immediately apparent... Milt Jackson's inventive playing throughout both dates makes this an important CD in his considerable discography, so it should be a part of any bop fan's collection." ~Ken Dryden

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present the Eric Jacobson Quintet performing a Tribute to trumpeter and composer Lee Morgan. The evening will also feature live art by Ryan Miller!

BACKGROUND:
"Lee Morgan was an American jazz trumpeter and composer. He was one of the key hard bop musicians of the 1960s, Morgan came to prominence in his late teens, recording on John Coltrane's Blue Train (1957) and with the band of drummer Art Blakey before launching a solo career. He was a leader and a sideman of players like Hank Mobley and Wayne Shorter and become a cornerstone of the Blue Note label. Morgan died at the age of 33 when his wife Helen shot and killed him following a confrontation at Slugs' Saloon, in New York City."

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present a livestream and in-person performance celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Elton John's "Madman Across the Water", released in 1971.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Trading the cinematic aspirations of Tumbleweed Connection for a tentative stab at prog rock, Elton John and Bernie Taupin delivered another excellent collection of songs with Madman Across the Water. Like its two predecessors, Madman Across the Water is driven by the sweeping string arrangements of Paul Buckmaster, who gives the songs here a richly dark and haunting edge. And these are songs that benefit from grandiose treatments. With most songs clocking in around five minutes, the record feels like a major work, and in many ways it is."

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present the Doug Bistro Quartet performing Wayne Shorter's "Adam's Apple", released in 1967. The evening will also feature live art by Arthur Wright!

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Adam's Apple is the tenth album by...Wayne Shorter. Released in 1967, it included the first recording of his composition "Footprints", later recorded by the Miles Davis Quintet ...AllMusic review by Stacia Proefrock states, 'it really does rank with the best of his output from this incredibly fertile period. Taken in isolation, this is one of the great works of mid-'60s jazz, but when Shorter has already achieved a unique performance style, compositional excellence, and a perfectly balanced relationship with his sidemen, it is hard to be impressed by the fact that he manages to continue to do these things album after album.'"

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present a livestream and in-person performance featuring the Bonzo Squad performing Vulfpeck's "Thrill of The Arts", released in 2015. The night will also feature live art by Ryan Miller!

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Thrill of the Arts, the debut full-length release from Vulfpeck is an entertaining score of influences —Motown, superfly funk, disco ballads, '80s easy listening, other music your parents probably owned—and classically trained elements that mix confidently with technetronic effects. The result isn’t nostalgic or avant-garde, but geeky cool in its carefully composed yet vibrant sound; it’s revenge-of-the-nerds with soul-train swagger. ~nysmusic.com

We'll kick off our 8th year anniversary series with Geof Bradfield's Garden of Souls performing Old and New Dreams' "Playing", released in 1981. The night will also showcase live art by Jen Lau!

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"This Austrian concert CD features the four notable Ornette Coleman alumni (trumpeter Don Cherry, tenor saxophonist Dewey Redman, bassist Charlie Haden and drummer Ed Blackwell) stretching out on three of Ornette's tunes, plus a song apiece from Cherry, Redman and Haden. Although Cherry's chops were not quite in peak form anymore, Redman is consistently stirring." ~Scott Yanow

On the fourth night we'll feature the Dana Hall Quintet performing Paul Motian's "Misterioso", released in 1987. The night will also showcase live art by Hillary Johnson!

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Although often overlooked, drummer Paul Motian led one of the most inventive jazz bands of the mid-1980s. His quintet, which featured the tenors of Joe Lovano and Jim Pepper, guitarist Bill Frisell and bassist Ed Schuller, could play anything from swinging advanced hard bop and Ornette Coleman-type free bop to spacier improvising. Motian contributed seven of the nine numbers for this date; the quintet also performs Thelonious Monk's "Misterioso" and "Pannonica." Frisell is featured on "Byablue" the two tenors work together quite well, and the band definitely had its own sound." ~Scott Yanow

On the final night of our 8th year anniversary series we'll conclude with Alyssa Allgood performing Shirley Horn's "May The Music Never End", released in 2003. The night will also feature live art by Melanie Brown!

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Horn's trademark sound is the sparse, languid torch song, with atmospheric piano chords and her gentle and soulful vocals caressing the notes as she slowly lets them ease into the listener's ear. If it is indeed her swan song, then she went out the same way she came in: as a true classic". At the time of the album's recording, Horn had stopped playing piano for health-related reasons, and pianists George Mesterhazy and Ahmad Jamal were chosen to provide her accompaniment..

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present a livestream and in-person performance featuring Neil Carson's Day-Glo Freaks performing Steely Dan's "Gaucho", released in 1980.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Steely Dan's  37-minute album Gaucho took two years to record and was the most expensive record ever made when it came out on November 21, 1980. The band’s seventh studio album, which followed the triumph of 1977’s Aja, was fraught with major tragedies during production. Gaucho is a testament to fine multitrack record-making, and the attention to detail was remarkable, even in the mixing stage. Despite all the difficulties, Gaucho was a huge commercial success. The New York Times declared it to be the best album of 1980." -Martin Chilton

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"This is the album that made John McLaughlin a semi-household name, a furious, high-energy, yet rigorously conceived meeting of virtuosos that, for all intents and purposes, defined the fusion of jazz and rock a year after Miles Davis' Bitches Brew breakthrough. It also inadvertently led to the derogatory connotation of the word fusion, for it paved the way for an army of imitators, many of whose excesses and commercial panderings devalued the entire movement." -Richard S Ginell

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
“These two 1960 sessions gave Benny Carter a unique chance to write a full program for Count Basie's orchestra. Arranged as a type of suite, the ten originals pay tribute to the various Kansas City clubs that were active in the '30s when Basie was a resident. The band swings throughout as usual, with concise solos adding color to this memorable modern session.”

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present a livestream and in-person performance featuring the Joan Hickey Quintet performing Bill Evan's "Interplay", released in 1963. The night will also feature live art by Arthur Wright!

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Interplay stands as some of Bill Evans' most enigmatic and unusual music in makeup as well as execution. It was recorded in July 1962 with a very young Freddie Hubbard from the Jazz Messengers, guitarist Jim Hall, bassist Percy Heath, and drummer Philly Joe Jones performing five veteran standards. Evans has a more blues-based approach to playing: harder, edgier, and in full flow, fueled in no small part by Hall, who is at his very best here, swinging hard whether it be a ballad or an uptempo number. Hubbard's playing, on the other hand, was never so restrained as it was here. Using a mute most of the time, his lyricism is revealed to jazz listeners for the first time -- with Art Blakey it was a blistering attack of hard bop aggression."

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"1977's Joyous Lake, that the increasingly well-known and already influential guitarist from Philadelphia took the big dive into electric waters, with a crack band of then-largely unknowns...for those who enjoy their fusion with a stronger tie to the tradition, even as its grooves and colors are irrefutably electric and in their energy, electrified, Joyous Lake remains an undervalued gem in Martino's discography, and one that absolutely merits Rediscovery.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"This is a true classic. Altoist Art Pepper is joined by an 11-piece band playing Marty Paich arrangements of a dozen jazz standards from the bop and cool jazz era...Throughout, Pepper sounds quite inspired by Paich's charts which feature the band as an active part of the music rather than just in the background. Highlights of this highly enjoyable set include "Move," "Four Brothers," "Shaw Nuff," "Anthropology," and "Donna Lee," but there is not a single throwaway track to be heard. Essential music for all serious jazz collections."

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"This recording was the third and final matchup between guitarists Herb Ellis and Joe Pass and, unlike the first two (which were both made for Concord), this is a duo date rather than a quartet session. Passwas just beginning to gain recognition for his remarkable unaccompanied solos, but Ellis had not recorded in such a sparse setting before. They complement each other quite well on such tunes as "Love for Sale," "Seven Come Eleven," "Oh, Lady Be Good," "I've Found a New Baby," and two versions of "Cherokee." Highly recommended." -Scott Yanow

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"The ultimate listenability may reside in this quartet's capacity to not be overwhelmed by the soloist. Likewise, they are able to push the grooves along surreptitiously and unfettered. For instance, the support that the trio -- most notably (McCoy) Tyner -- gives to Coltrane on the title track winds the melody in and around itself. However, instead of becoming entangled and directionless, these musical sidebars simultaneously define the direction the song is taking."

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"From this combination of guitar, standup bass, and acoustic drum kit, you've got nine tracks of sheer jazz joy -- three guys just blowing for the hell of it, recorded on the fly. Pat Metheny's playing is definitely modernistic, highly fluid, almost liquid lightning -- no effects boxes here. This is an album with serious crossover potential, and it should definitely be heard by anyone serious about music in any way."

The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present a livestream performance featuring the Erik Skov Quartet performing Kurt Rosenwinkle's "Intuit", released in 1993.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"Intuit, a quartet session devoted entirely to standards, is not entirely representative of Kurt Rosenwinkel's art. However, it does reveal the depth of the guitarist's expertise in the bop idiom, and is therefore worth the attention of devoted fans. Rosenwinkel's sound throughout this straight-ahead excursion is fairly dry -- a touch of reverb, no shimmering delay, no ethereal vocalizing, a bit less distinctive than usual. His highly modern approach to harmony often comes through."
