In Real Time

Artemis

Jazz - Released May 5, 2023 | Blue Note Records

Hi-Res
Created in the summer of 2017, at the initiative of Canadian pianist Renee Rosnes for International Women's Day, Artemis is a collective, international, transgenerational, and exclusively female jazz group. Quite a unique phenomenon in this day and age. With a first eponymous album released on the Blue Note label in 2020, which was favourably received by international critics, this lineup is back to delivery this new opus, albeit with a slightly changed line-up — Ingrid Jensen retains her role on the trumpet and the rhythm section remains unchanged (Rosnes on piano, Noriko Ueda on double bass and Allison Miller on drums). However, the newcomer Nicole Glover takes the place of Melissa Aldana on tenor saxophone while Alexa Tarantino assumes the alto saxophone, soprano saxophone, and flute (replacing Anat Cohen). The album is divided into eight beautifully crafted themes (two covers by Lyle Mays (Slink) and Wayne Shorter (Penelope) and six original tracks showcasing the compositional talents of each member of the group). A vast register of forms covers the entire aesthetic spectrum of a jazzy modernity, so typical of the Blue Note label’s heritage. Artemis develops lyrical, sophisticated, and continually seductive music, varying in moods and colours with shimmering arrangements and solo interventions of great emotional intensity, without ever losing the overall coherence of their ambition. Renee Rosnes’ (pianist, arranger and musical director for the group) influence remains apparent throughout the album, anchoring the group’s music in the tradition which it has honoured for more than thirty years, together with illustrious musicians like Joe Henderson, Wayne Shorter and even Ron Carter — but throughout this well-executed project, the richness of the album's content undoubtedly owes its body and soul to all the musicians involved. © Stéphane Ollivier/Qobuz

The Weatherman

Gregory Alan Isakov

Folk/Americana - Released July 9, 2013 | Suitcase Town Music

Warm, weary, wild, and wounded, The Weatherman, the third long-player from Johannesburg, South Africa-born, Philadelphia-raised, and Boulder, Colorado-based singer/songwriter Gregory Alan Isakov, picks up where 2009's well-received This Empty Northern Hemisphere left off, presenting another stylistically austere yet emotionally charged set of lyrical and melodious indie folk songs that invoke names like José González, Bon Iver, A.A. Bondy, and Josh Ritter. Released on Isakov's own Suitcase Town Music imprint, highlights include the languid and lush opener "Amsterdam," the wistful "She Always Takes It Back," the dreamy "Saint Valentine," and the impossibly lovely "Suitcase Full of Sparks." © TiVo

Not That Fancy

Reba McEntire

Country - Released October 6, 2023 | Rockin' R Records, LLC

Hi-Res
Reba McEntire published Not That Fancy: Simple Lessons on Living, Loving, Eating, and Dusting Off Your Boots in 2023, accompanying the book's release with Not That Fancy, a 14-song collection of acoustic versions of her biggest hits as produced by Dave Cobb that featured the new song "Seven Minutes in Heaven." The bulk of these versions are pulled from the "Revisited" disc of 2021's triple-CD Revived Remixed Revisited, so hardcore fans will be familiar with them, but these stripped-back interpretations are enjoyable in any context.© Stephen Thomas Erlewine /TiVo

Blue Haze

Miles Davis

Jazz - Released October 1, 1958 | Prestige

Hi-Res Booklet
Blue Haze documents two Prestige sessions from May 1953 and March 1954 (plus "I'll Remember April," with altoist Davey Schildkraut, from the April 3, 1954 session that yielded half of Walkin'). During this time, a resurgent Miles Davis began to zero in on his own style and sound, taking significant steps away from the rhythmic and harmonic devices of his mentor Dizzy Gillespie. Paralleling his recorded work for Blue Note, Davis was also working with some of the greatest rhythm players in the history of jazz. Blue Haze finds Davis the lone featured horn. "When Lights Are Low" is one of Benny Carter's most famous melodies, and the song-like cadences suit the ripe, chipper tone of Davis' horn. John Lewis' Monk-ish chords signal the sprightly head to "Tune Up," as Percy Heath and Max Roach groove manfully along. "Miles Ahead" is derived from Davis' earlier "Milestones" (neither of which should be confused with subsequent titles and tunes for Columbia). Davis' loping solo illustrates his leisurely ease in constructing a melody, but his dancing eights with Roach illuminate what fires simmer beneath the surface. Cut by cut, this set documents the trumpeter's search for his ideal rhythm mates. Thanks to Heath, Art Blakey, and especially Horace Silver, Davis here sounds far more relaxed, swinging, and rhythmically complex on his famous melody "Four." Their interplay on "Old Devil Moon" is a study in give and take, tension and release. And aroused as he is by Heath's booming blues beat, Blakey's ghostly sizzle cymbal, and Silver's taut accompaniment, Davis turns the title tune into as expressive a film noir blues as you're likely to hear this side of Raymond Chandler.© TiVo

Blue With Lou

Nils Lofgren

Rock - Released April 26, 2019 | CATTLE TRACK ROAD RECORDS

Hi-Res Booklet
The Lou in question is Lou Reed, the erstwhile leader of the Velvet Underground who died in 2013. Nils Lofgren and Reed crossed paths in the late '70s, when producer Bob Ezrin -- who helmed Reed's Berlin in 1973 and was working with Lofgren on a new record -- introduced the pair. Hitting it off, Lofgren and Reed wrote a clutch of songs which appeared on their 1979 albums Nils and The Bells, but these six songs weren't all that the duo wrote together. After Reed's death, Lofgren excavated the songs that weren't recorded at the time, adding six new tunes and a version of "City Lights" -- originally from The Bells -- for good measure. Tracking live in his home studio with drummer Andy Newmark and bassist Kevin McCormick, Lofgren achieves a lean, sinewy sound that gives the tight group plenty of room to roam, and they occasionally do, stretching out the title track to seven minutes and "Cut Him Up" to six. Such a concentration on a muscular band dynamic naturally moves Blue with Lou closer to Lofgren's camp than Reed's, but the latter's DNA still shines through in both the rhymes and rhythms. Lofgren's originals may not carry the same swagger, but when they're surrounded by these Reed co-writes, they're given a slight lift: the whole affair simultaneously feels like an affectionate tribute to a departed friend and a resuscitation of Lofgren's gut-level rock & roll.© Stephen Thomas Erlewine /TiVo

Under Great White Northern Lights

The White Stripes

Alternative & Indie - Released March 16, 2010 | Third Man Records - Legacy

Given the White Stripes’ reputation for powerful concerts, it’s a little surprising that they waited until more than a decade into their career to release a live album. However, Under Great White Northern Lights was worth the wait: While nothing can really replace seeing the band live, this set captures most of their riveting on-stage presence. The album was recorded during the Stripes’ 2007 Canadian tour, which was such a special experience for them that they chronicled it with a DVD as well. The band was touring in support of that year’s Icky Thump, and the Scottish and Celtic motifs that are woven throughout that album pop up here, too, from the bagpipes intro to a brisk version of “Little Ghost” that sounds almost like a reel. Like most White Stripes concerts, Under Great White Northern Lights features an evenhanded mix of early songs and newer ones -- Jack and Meg White go way back for incendiary takes on “Let’s Shake Hands” and “When I Hear My Name,” which sound right at home next to the lunging “Icky Thump” and “I’m Slowly Turning into You.” The album opens with four furious rockers that show just how primal the duo is live -- on “Black Math” and a breathless “Blue Orchid” they sound like they can barely keep up with the energy flowing through them -- but many of Under Great White Northern Lights’ brightest moments happen when they slow down. Jack and Meg settle into a groove on “300 M.P.H. Torrential Outpour Blues” that makes the song fresher than it was on Icky Thump, while a particularly stunning version of “The Union Forever,” with extra-desperate vocals from Jack surrounded by a swelling, horror-movie organ, just might be the album’s standout. The Stripes also include plenty of favorites, including “Jolene,” a bluesy “Fell in Love with a Girl,” a singalong “I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself,” and a bruising “Seven Nation Army” as the finale, all of which capture the kind of show the band puts on for its fans. Since a big part of the Stripes’ live show also rests on their visuals, the Under Great White Northern Lights DVD gives the complete experience, but this album is satisfying enough to make it a must for most fans.© Heather Phares /TiVo
