Roy Davis Jr. - "Love, Wisdom, & Understanding" - 07-Apr-05 10:29 PM
One of Roy Davis Jr's best and most-underrated records. Contains the original version of the very beautiful "Michael". Each of the tracks on this EP hint at Roy's spirituality through the track titles and gospel-tinged vocals. "Soulful" in the truest sense of the word!
Various - Frankie Knuckles - Choice - A Collection Of Classics - 22-Nov-04 05:35 PM
The Azuli Choice compilations are a good entry point for anyone wanting to know more about the roots of dance music. This is probably the best of the bunch so far - Frankie Knuckle's taste is impeccible and every track here is a classic in the true sense of the word. Recommended.
Miles Davis - 10-Oct-04 10:31 AM
Miles has to be considered as one of the most forward-thinking and cutting-edge musicians of the 20th century. Purists may label Coltrane (post-Miles' band) as the true innovator, but it was Miles who revolutionized jazz in the 1940's with 'Birth of the Cool' and proceeded to set trends in popular music for the next 40-odd years. The band he recorded with throughout the 60's (Ron Carter on bass, Tony Williams drums, Wayne Shorter on sax, Herbie Hancock on keys) has to be one of the tightest units ever to play together. Studio albums like 'Miles in the Sky', 'In a Silent Way' and 'Water Babies' are incredible.. but the live albums from his band during this era are really where it's at.
'Kind of Blue' - my all-time favourite album.
Robert Hood - Minimal Nation - 23-Jul-04 07:20 AM
The Mills mispress record sounds like it was recorded in his New York/Limelight phase after he left Underground Resistance in 1992. Hard-hitting techno ala Waveform Transmissions Vol 1.
