“What distinguishes the Louisiana Repertory Jazz Ensemble from the hundreds of groups around the globe playing what is variously labeled Trad, New Orleans or Dixieland jazz is its absolute authenticity. And it has come as a revelation to all who thought they knew what the genuine article was. One thing it is not, for instance, is the all-pervasive, brash and brassy music which emanates from the bars and strip clubs of Bourbon Street. Despite a burgeoning international reputation, with appearances as far a field as Moscow and Hong Kong, and radio, TV and record performances, New Orleans is still the wellspring of the band’s inspiration - both musically and environmentally. “We regard ourselves both as resuscitators of this musical tradition and a living part of it,” explained Starr. The interaction between the musicians and the people they play for - many of whom actually danced to the bands whose repertoires the LRJE is reviving - is as important in creating the group’s genuineness as the long hours spent delving into the archives for buried tunes.” ~ Quavers

”The Gnostic Preludes is the fourth chapter in the mystically influenced recordings that began with In Search of the Miraculous and continued with Goddess: Music for the Ancient of Days and At the Gates of Paradise. Despite the wide range of Zorn’s mystical investigations throughout his career, these four records—thus far—have more in common with one another than the rest of his catalog. While all have featured different groups, the one constant is vibraphonist Kenny Wollesen (who also plays bells). Harpist Carol Emmanuel appeared in the Goddess ensemble. The addition of Bill Frisell to these proceedings feels essential for what Zorn was trying to accomplish with this particularly intimate group of compositions. His instantly recognizable tone; easy, laid-back, readily accessible style, and his ability to become an equal part of an ensemble make him an ideal choice. While the sleeve notes namecheck early music, early minimalism, and Debussy, they infer inspiration, rather than describe the music found here. In these compositions, simplicity is the key. “The Middle Pillar” walks a gorgeous line between Sephardic sources as well as those of 20th century Spanish music, from modern flamenco to guitarist Pepe Romero. “The Book of Pleasure,” a soulful, laid-back chamber piece, contains elements of jazz, and to a lesser degree, Brazilian folk music. Given a less skeletal arrangement, it would not have been out of place on a Dreamers recording. The way Wollesen and Frisell dance around one another on “Music of the Spheres,” with Emmanuel finding a middle space and canny ways to texture the backdrop, evokes everything from cinematic serial music to mellow surf! The harp and Wollesen’s bells and vibes are the rhythmic centerpieces that Frisell’s playing turns on in “Circumambulation.” Here, patterns invert themselves just as they establish repetition, with truly colorful textural highlights by Wollesen. The interlocking grooves on “Sign and Signal,” and the more subtle but equally rhythmic, almost heartbreakingly beautiful closer “The Invisibles” suggest that what Zorn was perhaps creating was a music so internally harmonic, it would tunnel through perception toward an intuitive comprehension of its intent. The Gnostic Preludes is poetic, deceptively simple, and spiritually vast in scope.” ~ by Thom Yurek, allmusic.com

”Linda & the Big King Jive Daddies is a full, nine-piece swing band from Tokyo. These hep cats from the East love the jump blues and swing of yesteryear with the enthusiasm and reincarnating powers that are unique to the Japanese for past American pop culture. Vocalist Linda is a perky joy, bringing sweet charm and husky delivery to such classics as “Route 66,” “Jump, Jive & Wail,” and “Caldonia.” ~ Tom Schulte, Rovi

Label - Label Bleu
Format - Mp3 , 256 kbps.
Size - 112 mb.
A 24 ans le guitariste Richard Manetti a déjà un CV conséquent, pour l’essentiel dans l’esthétique swing manouche (il n’est pas le fils de Romane pour rien !), croisant les cordes en concert, en club ou en festivals avec toutes les gâchettes du style. S’il aime toujours l’univers reinhardtien qu’il ne lâche d’ailleurs pas tout à fait (cf le récent disque néo manouche du groupe Django club au sein duquel il évolue avec ses petits camarades Adrien Moignard, Sébastien Giniaux, Fiona Montbet et Jérémie Arranger), Richard, qui aime toutes sortes de choses en musique ne veut pas s’enfermer dans les manoucheries.

Jan Johansson (16 September 1931 – 9 November 1968) was a Swedish jazz pianist. He is little known outside Scandinavia, and his records are not widely available, though Jazz på svenska (Jazz in Swedish) has sold more than a quarter of a million copies, and is the best selling jazz release ever in Sweden.
Johansson was a native of Söderhamn, in the Hälsingland province of Sweden. Studying classical piano as a child, he would also go on to master the guitar, organ and accordion, before turning on to swing and bebop as a teenager. He met saxophonist Stan Getz while at university. He abandoned his studies to play jazz full time, and worked with many American jazz musicians, becoming the first European to be invited to join the Jazz at the Philharmonic package.
In November 1968 Jan Johansson died in a car crash on his way to a concert in a church in Jönköping, Sweden. His sons, Anders Johansson and Jens Johansson, run Heptagon Records which keeps their father’s recordings available.
“Ode is a collection of originals that I wrote specifically for my trio with Larry and Jeff,” says Mehldau. “I feel that what they bring to the music in the performance here is inseparable from the tunes themselves.” Most of the songs, he explains, “are tributes to someone else, and I began to think of them as odes, or poems that might be sung; in our case here it’s the singing only without all those pesky words.” Subjects include the late saxophonist Michael Brecker (“M.B.”), a character from the film Easy Rider (“Eulogy for George Hanson”), and the guitarist Kurt Ronsenwinkel (“Kurt Vibe”)
