Artist:
Keith Jarrett
A musical chameleon, pianist Keith Jarrett was at his finest when he recorded these sustained solo improvisations in a German concert hall in 1975, the first lasting 26 minutes, the second 40. Melodies and rhythmic figures arise fluidly from his fingers as he moves from one idea to another, while his strong left hand is often used for repeated motifs that generate a rolling hypnotic power. This couples with strongly consonant harmonies to impart the flavour of gospel music at times, dance music and Debussy at others. Above all, it's Jarrett's ability to knit all of his moods and wanderings into an almost seamless tapestry of warm and tuneful ideas that gives this music it...

Artist:
Nat 'King' Cole
One of the finest singers of his--or any--age, Nat "King" Cole performed the definitive versions of many vocal standards. This collection gathers 22 of the velvety-voiced crooner's most popular favourites: "Let There Be Love", "Mona Lisa", "Unforgettable", "Let's Face The Music And Dance", to name a few. The choice of songs, as well as the superb quality of these recordings, both make The Ultimate Collection one of the better Nat "King" Cole compilations available. --Ted Kord

Artist:
Buena Vista Social Club,
Ry Cooder
Ry Cooder's name has helped bring attention to this session, but it's the veteran Cuban son musicians who make this album really special. Reminiscent of Ellington in its scope and sense of hushed romanticism, Buena Vista Social Club is that rare meld of quietude and intensity; while the players sound laid-back, they're putting forth very alive music, a reminder that aging doesn't mean taking to bed. Barbarito Torres's laoud solo on "El Cuarto de Tula" is both more blinding and more tasteful than any guitar showcase on any recent rock album; a quote from "Stormy Weather" and some very distinct parallels to Hawaiian styles remind us of why it's called "world music."<...
