Miles Davis - Autumn Leaves






Wynton Marsalis - Autumn Leaves

Wynton's Standard Time albums are among his best & it features a great quartet. This version of the song is dope. The way he & the band change the tempo of this standard is

Cannot find an album with Max Roach's Minor Trouble...Digging Blues.

The album with this song is called +4. I'm at work so I can't see if it's available on iTunes (don't have it downloaded to my work laptop). Amazon had it for DL & to purchase the physical CD. The cost is a little high leading me to believe it might be out of print. If you're looking for the CD, you might find it cheaper at a local shop (non-box store). Didn't see the song available to embed here from YouTube. Hope that helps...

Blue Note recently got two of their artists together resulting in Robert Glasper interviewing Jose James. I think this interview was done in anticipation of James' forthcoming album No Beginning, No End. These vids are available on Vevo's YouTube channel so you might not be able to view them embedded here, you may have to jump to YouTube if you're interested...

Austin Peralta, jazz pianist and Flying Lotus collaborator, dead at 22
By Randall Roberts
Los Angeles Times Pop Music Critic
November 22, 2012, 9:52 a.m.

Austin Peralta, the 22-year-old jazz piano prodigy, composer and son of professional skater Stacy Peralta, has died. Flying Lotus, the beat producer and labelhead who released Peralta's music, confirmed the news Thursday morning via Twitter, writing: "it kills me to type that we lost a member of our family, Austin Peralta. I don't really have the right words right now." Peralta's cause of death has not been announced.

Peralta's recent output has ranged from collaborations on Flying Lotus' Brainfeeder Records imprint, including the pianist's 2011 album "Endless Planets," and session work for artists including Erykah Badu and the Cinematic Orchestra. But Peralta first made his international mark at age 15 at the Tokyo Jazz Festival, where he and his trio performed a set that confirmed a pianist with prodigious talent.

You could see it in his hands, and those long pianist fingers that moved across the keys effortlessly. One night last year, Peralta gigged with his trio at the Del Monte Speakeasy in Venice, and I was lucky enough to spin records between his sets. In addition to being an incredibly curious listener -- after we met, he flipped through my records and asked about a few tracks I'd played -- when Peralta sat down at the keyboard his talent was immediately obvious. I'll always remember sitting a few feet away from him on the Speakeasy's tiny stage, watching from close range his hands control his keyboard.

In a review of Peralta's gig in 2011 at Lot 1 Cafe, The Times' Chris Barton was effusive: "Peralta was often a force of nature on his red electric keyboard. Hammering out squelched, funk-dappled notes that recalled '******* Brew'-era Chick Corea at one instance or flickering, twilit atmospherics the next, Peralta sounded like every bit of the next big thing."

Musicians have been tweeting appreciations since the news started trickling out Wednesday night. Robert Glasper, who recently shared a bill with Peralta at UCLA, wrote: “RIP Austin Peralta..gifted young pianist gone to0 soon..glad I got to meet him last month..great dude..praying for his family…”

On his Tumblr page, Frank Ocean posted a clip of Peralta gigging at the Tokyo Jazz Festival.

Flea, the bassist for Red Hot Chili Peppers, wrote: "Austin peralta was a transcendent musician, the kind of kid that made the future of music look bright. Thankful he existed. He broke through." And famed BBC DJ Gilles Peterson, whose taste for visionary jazz is well-established, wrote: "I really can't believe he's gone - such a tragic loss Austin Peralta RIP."

Flying Lotus initially announced he and Brainfeeder were cancelling a planned trip to perform in Japan in the coming days, but changed his mind Thursday morning, writing via Twitter: "scratch that.. JAPAN we're coming!"

Pop & Hiss will keep you posted on any tributes in the coming days and weeks.

I know man, only 22 and they haven't released the cause of death yet.. hate to say it but 9 times out of 10 that means it was drugs


Here's one of my favorite sad songs (in light of the Ravens losing to Charlie Batch at home smh)

 

[Kimchi Papi]

Do you live in Bmore DT43? Maan, ratbird fans are hot & upset about losing at home...You should hear them on 105.7 this morning, I had to turn it off. Couldn't start my Monday morning out with so much negativity...Good post up there. Love Coltrane...You earning a lot of reps with me...Keep it up...

I posted some young cats a couple of pages ago but I thought I'd share more with my NT jazz brethren...Hope you enjoy...

Gilad Hekselman - Prelude To a Kiss





John Raymond - Already & Not Yet





John Raymond Project - The Rock (Cornelia St. Cafe 3/22/12)

Raymond's CD released earlier this year, but I slipped on getting it until about a month ago. Even then, I didn't open & listen to it until this weekend & I'm sorry I waited so long. Nice album from beginning to end featuring Hekselman on guitar & Javier Santiago on piano among others...Found this live performance on YouTube...





Ben Williams - Home & Dawn Of A New Day (NPR Tiny Desk Concert)

DC's own!!! I think I've posted this before, oh well...

Christian Scott - Litany Against Fear (Amoeba Records 4/25/10)

Nice post Sinner P.

Scott's newest album is my favorite jazz release in the last several years. He's playing a show with his new band in NYC December 6th at the Brooklyn Museum. Here's what his live shows are like. If you're not familiar with this brother, please check him out. He's right up there with Miles & I'd hold all his records (especially the newest one) right up there with any of the greats...Scott is the truth...

If you want to see the whole set, check out Amoeba's website (link below). Great source for live shows for various artists & it's free...

Lee Morgan - Mr. Kenyatta

Love this song...





Eddie Henderson - Inside You

What a lewd song title... Some more soul jazz. Song was used in Jay Z's Coming Of Age from Reasonable Doubt. The track had a young Memphis Bleek...

 

[Kimchi Papi]

Branford Marsalis - In the Crease

Listen to the beat that bassist Eric Revis & drummer Justin Faulkner lay down on this song....They're beastin'!!! Love love love this song...Branford at the top of his powers...Calderazzo on piano is a beast too...

 

[Kimchi Papi]

Ornette Coleman - Ramblin'

Just realized I don't think I've ever posted Coleman in here. Branford quotes some of this song in the first minute or two of In The Crease...Hip Hop isn't too far removed from Jazz...
