Brian Bromberg - It Is What It Is

Product Description
Grammy®-nominated bassist and producer Brian Bromberg is one of the most versatile and respected players in both straight ahead and contemporary jazz. Backed by a killer horn section, Bromberg gets loose and funky throughout the 13 tracks on It Is What It is, including his unique spin on the B52's dance classic "Love Shack." Brian is joined by another A-List of musicians including: George Duke, Patrice Rushen, Jeff Lorber, Randy Brecker, Eric Marienthal, Gerald Albright, Richard Elliot, Rick Braun, Will Kennedy, Dave Weckl, Alex Acuña, Paul Jackson Jr., Dan Siegel and more!

A very versatile acoustic and electric bassist capable of playing straight-ahead jazz, funk, and fusion, Brian Bromberg is also one of the few bassists to master the tapping technique made famous by Stanley Jordan, sometimes sounding like three bassists at once during his often-thunderous solos. Although he was a drummer at the age of 13, the folowing year Bromberg started classical lessons on bass. He developed quickly and by the time he was 19, he was part of Stan Getz's group. Bromberg has been a valuable sidemen with many bands since including those led by Horace Silver, Monty Alexander, Dizzy Gillespie, Richie Cole, Lee Ritenour, Dave Grusin, and Freddie Hubbard. He recorded his first album as a leader in 1986 (A New Day for the Blackhawk label) and has since led sessions for Intima and Nova; unfortunately, all of those record companies have since gone out of business. Brian Bromberg into the next century remained one of the most underrated bassists in jazz. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide

Streetwize - Put U To Bed (2009)



Artist: Streetwize
Title Of Album: Put U To Bed
Year Of Release: Jul 28, 2009
Label: Shanachie
Genre: Smooth Jazz
Quality: MP3 / Joint Stereo
Bitrate: VBR 199 Kbps Avg / 44.1 Khz
Total Time: 49:20 min
Total Size: 70.62MB

Smooth jazz takes on a host of contemporary soul tunes - a project that's a bit like the Unwrapped series from Hidden Beach, but a bit more mellow overall! The songs are numbers you'll recognize from hits by Alicia Keys, Ne-Yo, J Holiday, Usher, and others - played here by a combo that features Kim Waters on saxes, Chris Davis on keyboards, and a few other smooth jazz all-stars as well. There's some background vocals on most numbers, but they usually just echo the main chorus - leaving lots of space for the instrumentalists to present the tunes in a more jazz-based way.


TRACKLIST
--------------
01. My Love (4:53)
02. Chopped N Skrewed (4:18)
03. Here I Stand (4:44)

Rick Braun - All It Takes (2009)


Artist: Rick Braun
Title Of Album: All It Takes
Year Of Release: July 28, 2009
Label: Artistry Music
Genre: Smooth Jazz
Quality: MP3 / Joint Stereo
Bitrate: VBR kbit/s / 44.1 Khz
Total Time: 47:55 min
Total Size: 70.23 MB
WebSite: rickbraun.com

Product Description
All It Takes is a fertile collaboration between the chart topping Rick Braun, and versatile keyboardist, composer, producer Philippe Saisse, it' s also a step into a wide-open musical terrain beyond Braun's trademark R&B/pop comfort zone. Most of the songs on All It Takes find Braun artfully combining flugelhorn with muted trumpet (using the Harmon mute). Add Euro, neo-classical, cinematic elements and a touch of disco flash and that's All It Takes for a sensational new disc. From producing Richard Elliot's newest (Rock Steady,) to setting himself new levels of creativity for All It Takes, to the now-legendary Chet Baker inspired shows, Rick performs as the mood strikes - this is an artist who doesn't stand still.
