  • JUBILEE EDITION to His Artistic Choice
    WINTE R&WINTER JthUe fBirsIt L30EyE earsE1D98I5 T–I2O01N 5 SOUND JOURNEYS 30 Years of Music Recordings by Stefan Winter It is a kind of stage anniversary behind the scenes: 30 years ago Stefan Winter founds the JMT (Jazz Music Today) label and records the debut production of the young saxo - STEFAN WINTER AND MARIKO TAKAHASHI phonist Steve Coleman . The starting point is the new Afro-American conception M-Base . The protagonists of this movement are Cassandra Wilson (vocals), Geri Allen (piano), Robin Eubanks (trombone), Greg Osby and Gary Thomas (sax ophones). In antithesis to this artistic movement Winter do cu ments the development of the young jazz avant- garde and produces path-breaking recordings with Tim Berne (saxophone), Hank Roberts (cello), Django Bates (piano), Joey Baron (drums), Marc Ducret (guitar) and the ensemble Miniature . After 1995 his working method changes fundamentally from a documentarist to a sound director. This is the actual beginning of WINTER&WINTER. Together with Mariko Takahashi he dares to implement a new label concept. At the end of the 80s, Stefan Winter and Mariko Takahashi meet in Japan. Under the direction of Mariko Takahashi the festival »Taboo-Lu« is initiated in Ginza in Tokyo (Japan), a notable presentation with live concerts, an art exhibition and recordings. With »Taboo-Lu« the idea of and for WINTER&WINTER is quasi anticipated: Border crossing becomes a programme. Art and music cooperate together, contemporary meets tradition, composition improvisation. Mariko Takahashi and Stefan Winter want to open the way with unconventional recordings and works for fantastic and new experiences. Stefan Winter has the vision to produce classical masterpieces in radical new interpretations.

  • New York Quartet
    NEW YORK STANDARDS QUARTET Tim Armacost David Berkman Gene Jackson Ugonna Okegwo 1 "Power of 10" is notable for its powerful music, intelligent interactions, excellent solos...The New York Standards Quartet takes music many listeners are familiar with, styles we can put a name to, and creates a program that illustrates just how alive jazz can be. RIC Richard Kamins, Hartford Courant 2 new york standards quartet biography When we formed the New York Standards Quartet (nysq) ten years ago, the concept was a straightforward one: play jazz standards in our own way. After playing a lot of original music (we all compose and lead bands that do that) we thought it would be fun and liberating to play music based on simpler, standard jazz tunes that we had grown up playing. By playing jazz standard tunes like “Confirmation” and “All the Things You Are,” we put the focus on the playing of the tune—what we do with it, not so much the tune itself. These tunes are blank slates to write on, with a lot of freedom and room for interpretation. We’ve expanded our approach to include arrangements and reinventions of these tunes, as well as original compositions that have a close connection to forms and harmonies derived from standards. The band has been touring and developing together for ten years, and it shows in the music. Audience response has been phenomenal, and bookings are pouring in from festivals and venues around the world. The New York Standards Quartet is Tim Armacost (Billy Hart, Ray Drummond, Kenny Barron) on saxes and flute, David Berkman (Tom Harrell, Cecil McBee, Vanguard Orchestra) on piano, Gene Jackson (Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Dave Holland) on drums, and Ugonna Okegwo (Brad Mehkdau, Tom Harrell, Kurt Rosenwinkel) on bass.

  • Albert King • Born Under a Bad Sign
    Albert King - Born Under a Bad Sign - The Audio Beat - www.TheAudioBeat.com 30.05.18, 0953 Music Reviews Albert King • Born Under a Bad Sign Stax/Speakers Corner S273 180-gram LP 1967/2018 Music Sound by Vance Hiner | May 30, 2018 lbert King’s family was so poor that his first instrument was made from a cigar box, a piece of brushwood and some string. Being a left-hander, when King finally bought his first real guitar, for $1.25, he taught himself to play it upside down. This, along with some alternate tunings, caused him to pull stings in unexpected directions, imbuing his style with a piercing, wailing signature. Early in his career, King was nicknamed "the Velvet Bulldozer," partly because his smooth and melodic vocal style served as a counterpoint to that more aggressive instrumental attack. King’s legacy is full of contradictions and struggles, and recordings that fell considerably short of his prodigious talent. Depending upon whom you believe, he was born Albert Nelson in either Indianola or Aberdeen, Mississippi, in 1923 or 1924 and reached a standing height somewhere between 6’4’’ and 6’ 7". But let there be no mistake about the man’s musical stature; it would be difficult to understate King’s influence on electric guitarists and singers. Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughn both cited Born Under a Bad Sign as a watershed album that modernized the blues and widened the genre’s influence. Eric Clapton has said that hearing the album prompted him to quit the supergroup Cream and attempt to push past his own musical boundaries.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Contact: Munnie Jordan, Executive Director E: [email protected] T: 870-572-5223 www.kingbiscuitfestival.com FOR RELEASE ON WEDNESDAY, APRIL 11, 2018, AFTER 5 P.M. 33rd Annual King Biscuit Blues Festival Announces Lineup HELENA, AR — The King Biscuit Blues Festival showcases the nation’s foremost Blues music. Paul Thorn calls The Biscuit “one of my favorites” and “a wonderful event.” Carolyn Wonderland says it’s like going to Mecca: “You gotta make the pilgrimage because it’s where the music’s real.” Charlie Starr of Blackberry Smoke looks at the group’s Biscuit date as his job to “make sure we continue to push outwards with our music and continue to grow where we don’t feel stifled or bored or stagnant.” Each of these acts will perform at the 33rd annual King Biscuit Blues Festival set for October 3 through 6. They represent a commitment to continue a historic thread that’s always made the Biscuit a showcase for the best of the past, present and future of America’s musical art form, the blues. Dave Mason crowns this year’s King Biscuit Saturday night performing with Steve Cropper. Mason calls his appearance at the festival “a chance to do something a little bit different and for me to do some material that I would never normally do.” One of the founders of the British Invasion rock band Traffic, he shares the stage with Steve Cropper, who co-wrote Otis Redding’s “The Dock of The Bay.” Considered the founder of Memphis soul, Cropper was named the number two guitarist of all time (Jimi Hendrix was number one) by England’s Mojo magazine.

Since then Jewel Riders has changed hands a few times; I think Digiview owns the rights at the moment so please pretend I updated the disclaimers. My old email no longer works; I'm now [email protected] if for some reason you want to email me. Starstone, a Jewel Rider fanfic by Stormdance Disclaimer: Everyone you’ve seen on TV belongs to Amazin Entertainment and/or Robert Mandell as far as I know. Trina, Silverwind, and anyone else are mine. I’m not making any money off this. Author’s note: Hiya all, I’m Stormdance and I’m to blame for the story you’re here to read. There *will* eventually be a Jewel Riders homepage connected to the story, but that’ll be in the future when I can get a computer literate family member to help me make it. While I didn’t knowingly contradict anything in the show, there are episodes I haven’t seen so I’m sure I slipped up somewhere. A lot of this is me writing the way things *might* have happened, especially Fallon and Tamara’s pasts and details about magic and Avalon.
