Burnshee Thornside - Rock This Moon
The Funky Duo is back with more classic Pop/Rock/Jazz. Now releasing their third album "Rock This Moon", a title taken from one of the tracks. As always, Burnshee Thornside presents a joyful mix of pop, rock, jazz-soul, funky jazz and some nice ballads, along with crazy, funny, thoughtful and satirical out-of-the-ordinary lyrics. Some call it retro, some call it schizophrenic, some call it "Steely Dan meets Frank Zappa meets Level 42, meets Michael Franks, meets Motown... in a Swedish...
Curfew - Somewhere In The City
The first Curfew CD release with the added bonus of Dave O'Higgins and Mark Hewins on sax and guitar - brilliant contributions from both of them. A great mix of original instrumentals, songs and covers. Great energy and dynamism across the whole band and a stunning cover version of Jaco Pastorius' "Come On Come Over " medley'd with Weather Report's "Barbary Coast".
Stanley Sings Jazz - Stanley Sings Jazz / Stanley's Salute To Al Jolson (2 CD Set)
2 CD SET. CD 1: STANLEY SINGS JAZZ/STANLEY SINGS JOLSON. CD 2: STANLEYS SALUTE TO AL JOLSON.
Faye Patton - Tell Me I'm A Sinner (Live)
An atmospheric collection of raw and rare songs. Entirely live acoustic voice and grand piano which combines neatly crafted blues piano and rich, poetic lyrics. Echoes of Scott Joplin meet the Brothers Grimm in an enchanted garden of showtime jazz/folk fusion and unrequited desire.
Burnshee Thornside - The Art Of Not Blending In
Funky jazz in the style of Steely Dan, Michael Franks and old Prince, played by real musicians wanting to get that human sound and feel. Some call it retro, we call it classic. Lyrics with wit and humour. Also a bit of blues. You'll never have a boring second with Burnshee Thornside.
Curfew - The Return Of The Jazz Fusioneers
The Return of the Jazz Fusioneers captures the 'live' feel of the band after a long (but very enjoyable) UK tour. As a result there's lots of first takes in there and very few overdubs. This means both extraordinary energy levels on some of the uptempo sections and great dynamics on the quieter numbers. Think Weather Report mixed with Tribal Tech!
Chris Flegg - The Sound Of Life
The Sound Of Life represents Chris Flegg's songwriting output for 2007 and is his fifth album. The songs are all original with acoustic guitar and soprano sax backing, with contributions from Terry Ede on flute, Keith Kendrick on concertinas and Rod Brown on percussion. The songs are varied, intelligent and conversational with a relaxed feel that makes for an enjoyable listening experience.
The quirky lyrics of vocalist Laura Collins set to the tranquil compositions of trumpeter Ben Thomas. "New beginnings point the way."
Deborah Sprout - You'll Just Never Know
Eclectic mix of rhythmic music, intelligent lyrics, rich, sensual vocals - jazz, r&b, latin, country-blues, rock, with a celtic twist.
