Added inventiveness is found on Dresser’s GLOBE UNITY: BRAZIL composition “Yeller Grace”, which blends “Yellow Rose of Texas”, “Amazing Grace” and the National Anthem into a barely recognizable yet fully engaging mix. And they show plenty of versatility, as piano and bass converse equally well within the sweeping, legato passages of “For My Mother” or the jarring, playful bounces of “Big Mama”.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

  • Listen to Dezron Douglas & Brandee Younger Cover the Stylistics' “You Make Me Feel Brand New” from New Album
    December 1, 2020 For Immediate Release Listen to Dezron Douglas & Brandee Younger Cover The Stylistics’ “You Make Me Feel Brand New” From New Album, Force Majeure, Out This Friday on International Anthem ​ ​ (Photo by Deneka Peniston) "Compiled from a soul-affirming livestream series that they shared from their Harlem apartment, [Force Majeure is] a portrait of resilience, solidarity and reassurance.” — WBGO ​ ​ ​ “Modal jazz classics by Pharoah Sanders and the Coltranes rub shoulders with heavenly, harmonically rich readings of soul standards such as You Make Me Feel Brand New by the Stylistics and Clifton Davis’s Never Can Say Goodbye, with Younger lurching from modal flourishes to the more chromatic, bop-influenced improvisations of Dorothy Ashby.” — The ​ Guardian (“Contemporary Album of the Month,” 4 stars) “Building on their weekly livestream and recorded in their living room with a single microphone, Force Majeure finds the duo swimming freely between the great canon of jazz compositions and familiar, contemporary popular songs.” — Bandcamp (“Album of the Day”) ​ Bassist Dezron Douglas and harpist Brandee Younger will release their debut album as a ​ ​ ​ ​ duo, Force Majeure, this Friday on International Anthem. Today, they present new single, ​ ​ ​ ​ “You Make Me Feel Brand New,” a cover of The Stylistics’ classic, written by Thom Bell and ​ ​ ​ Linda Creed. It follows previous singles, the pair’s “warm and inviting” (Stereogum) cover of ​ ​ Pharoah Sanders & Leon Thomas’ “The Creator Has A Master Plan,” and “Sing,” which was ​ ​ originally written by Joe Raposo for Sesame Street. ​ ​ Douglas & Younger’s rendition of “You Make Me Feel Brand New” opens with light, magnetic flutters from Younger’s harp and strolling plucks on Douglas’ bass.
