Refreshments: Let it rock 2013 [CD]

The great British jazz singer Norma Winstone once again casts her net wide for source material for this third ECM album with Italian pianist Glauco Venier and German clarinetist / saxophonist Klaus Gesing. Alongside new pieces by Winstone/Gesing and by Venier, the trio covers tunes by singer-songwriters Nick Drake, Fred Neil and Tom Waits. They take a fresh approach to Madonna's "Live To Tell", and to Dave Grusin's "It Might Be You", as well as Ralph Towner's "A Breath Away" (now with lyrics by Norma) and "Bein' Green", a children's song elevated to jazz standard status by Sinatra, Stan Kenton, Ray Charles and many more. "As Winstone moves ever farther from the Great American Songbook," All About Jazz observed, "it's certain that, with band mates as sympathetic as Gesing and Venier, there's precious little she can't do."

Jackson Alan: The bluegrass album 2013 [CD]

När Van Morrison släppte "Moondance" 1970 var det inte alls den meditativa stil som vilade över föregående albumet "Astral weeks". Nej, här var det en kokande gryta fylld med jazz, soul, country och blues. Det är en platta fylld av liv och lust - en mastodont som omedelbart fick den klassikerstatus som den fortfarande har. Många klassar den som Van Morrisons allra bästa album. Många klassar den som historiens bästa album.
