    Artist: Winifred Atwell
    Album: Double 7
    Released: 2005
    Quality: mp3 CBR 320
    Size: 156 MB

    Winifred Atwell was an accomplished and versatile pianist who was idolised by the British public throughout the 1950s. She had studied the piano since she had been a small child although she later became trained as a dispenser in the expectation that she would be employed in her father’s pharmacist shop. By the age of 30 she became aware that other local musicians had gained further musical training abroad and, encouraged by this, in 1945 she left for the USA.

    By the late 1940s she had gained a place at London’s Royal Academy of Music with ambitions of becoming a concert pianist. However, in order to finance this initiative she worked during the evenings at London’s clubs playing piano rags. By 1950 her popularity had spread nationally and she began recording with Decca during 1951- before the advent of any record sales ‘chart’.

    Her music also worked well on TV where she made regular appearances. She would normally start her act by playing a classical piece on a grand before transferring herself to what she called ‘my other piano’ which was an old ‘honky tonk’ upright. It was on this that she recorded many of her most successful numbers including her two #1’s and the now legendary ‘Black And White Rag’ which has been used as the signature tune of BBC’s ‘Pot Black’ snooker programme for several decades.

     Sister Rosetta Tharpe (2002) -Gospel Train

    Artist: Sister Rosetta Tharpe
    Album: Gospel Train
    Released: 2002
    Quality: mp3 CBR 320
    Size: 55 MB

    Alongside Willie Mae Ford Smith, Sister Rosetta Tharpe is widely acclaimed among the greatest Sanctified gospel singers of her generation; a flamboyant performer whose music often flirted with the blues and swing, she was also one of the most controversial talents of her day, shocking purists with her leap into the secular market—by playing nightclubs and theaters, she not only pushed spiritual music into the mainstream, but in the process also helped pioneer the rise of pop-gospel. Tharpe was born March 20, 1915 in Cotton Plant, AR; the daughter of Katie Bell Nubin, a traveling missionary and shouter in the classic gospel tradition known throughout the circuit as “Mother Bell,” she was a prodigy, mastering the guitar by the age of six. At the same time, she attended Holiness conventions alongside her mother, performing renditions of songs including “The Day Is Past and Gone” and “I Looked Down the Line.”~ read more on allmusic.com

    Stephane GRAPPELLY - Le Toit De Paris (1969)

    Label: Bmg/RCA Records Label
    Genre Gypsy Swing Jazz
    Release Date1969
    Recording DateOct 28, 1969
    Format Mp3 320 Kbps
    Size 80 MB

    L’album qui a précédé le parfait I Hear Music ; On retrouve déjà cette formule en quartette, une combinaison de prédilection pour le violoniste Stéphane Grappelli qui réussit un vrai tour de force, en compagnie du trop rare pianiste Raymond Fol. Un album qui porte bien son nom : la grâce et la légèreté de cette musique réclament une certaine hauteur…—Eric Frank


    Reviewby Ken Dryden

    Stephane Grappelli’s career was beginning to take off once again around the time of this 1969 session in Paris; the swinging violinist is accompanied by pianist Raymond Fol, guitarist Tony Ovio, bassist Jack Sewing, and drummer Andre Hartmann. While the leader and his pianist play rather well, the rest of the rhythm section is burdened by Ovio’s rather hackneyed accompaniment. The best tracks are the standards, including a very brisk “Rain Check” and “What Am I Here For” (the latter of which opens with a bit of pizzicato violin), as well as a breakneck “Tabou” (sometimes spelled “Taboo” or “Tabu” on other records). Less inspired are labored renditions of “I Got It Bad (And That Ain’t Good)” and “Time on My Hands.” One factor separating this date from the typical Grappelli release is the heavier concentration of original material; Grappelli contributed two fairly nondescript ballads (“Andree” and “Light”) and the intense swinger “Denise,” while Fol penned the bland ballad “Camelia” and a somewhat corny waltz, “Anna.” Fol switches to celeste on a couple of numbers, neither of which are particularly remarkable. An odd note on the back cover apologizes for using the original album cover art with the leader’s name misspelled Stephane Grappelly, which was actually the original spelling and the way he still signed autographs 20 years after the recording session! While this album (reissued on CD by RCA France in 1994) is hardly a prime example from Stephane Grappelli’s considerable discography, there are enough enjoyable tracks for swing fans to considering purchasing it.

    About the Album:
    On Risin’ with the Blues, the R&B icon and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer takes the intensity level up a notch or two with typically slashing-stinging guitar work, rollicking boogie woogie piano flourishes and some of the nastiest, rawest, most potent vocals he’s ever summoned up in a fabled career that dates back more than 50 years.
