Imagine you're a world renowned record label. You've been around for over 50 years and most of the great jazz musicians have come through your doors to record with you at some point in their career. But since your heyday in the late 50's and 60's, you've been passed from company to company, and it seems that you're destined for the old folks home and to fade into obscurity in relation to the newest generation of music listeners. The problem is posed: how to rejuvenate yourself and find some relevancy with today's culture, to convince new ears [...]
I've have always been a fan of the Verve Remixed series; what a genius idea to combine wonderful jazz and bossa nova standards with the wit and reinterpretations of today's modern remixers. What is remarkable about Verve Remixed: Volume 4 is that it is not only vastly different than the previous 3 volumes, but that each remix has its own unique flair and twist. The Psapp remix of Astrud Gilberto's "Bim Bom" infuses the original with the childish wonder of Psapp's quirky instruments, while 9th Wonder makes Roy Ayers' classic "Everybody Loves The Sunshine" [...]
Okay so it's not Friday! But we still got some fresh music for you. I got busy, it happens. Actually I'm in the mood for lots of Jazz so I decided to dig up so new and old Jazz-esque tracks. Some old, some nu, acid etc. It's all really dope stuff. If you just listen to this mix you see that the Jazz sound has evolved so much and the dynamic of what people are doing to it these days is incredible. The elders never saw it coming. But soon after all the sound has changed, [...]
Astrud Gilberto - Fly Me To The Moon Slag of a week and there's still a whole two more days of wage-slavery to come? Put your feet up and let DC soothe the brow of the weary workforce with a mid week selection concocted to defurrow the brow and rub valium-balm on your knotted shoulders. First up, the dulcet tones of Astrud Gilberto , whose velvety loveliness outs me in mind of Andrex loo-roll, although I imagine she has been responsible for pulping a whole lot [...]
If you're a fan of Brazilian music, look no further than Loronix - Music From Brazil , an indispensible music blog that specializes in "forgotten music not commercially available." It's got over 1500 lost classics on it and well worth checking out. Here's a sampling of a couple of classics. O Sonho - Airto Moreira w/ Flora Purim Berimbou - Astrud Gilberto Music [...]
Beautifully, I heard it from Tim Hardin. So sang Nicolai Dunger - no slouch himself - on "Tribute to Tim Hardin ." It's a wonder that more aren't paying tribute. There's Okkervil River , of course, the band who based their breakthrough album on Hardin's "Black Sheep Boy." It took these golden endorsements for me to seek out the overlooked '70s singer/songwriter, and my God. AllMusic says Tim Hardin 1 isn't his best album; I'd believe them if it were possible for albums to be better than this one. [...]

This, this is great. For You Can Call Me Betty's 100th post, I can sit here just in my shorts it's so hot, the football on the telly right next to me, and I get to post about Brazil. As football posts go, it doesn't get much more exciting: in the words of Mugatu, they're so hot right now - Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Adriano and, yes, Fred made the squad, the samba boys are still (as every year) the hottest property in football - I wish I could incoporate Ronaldinho's band in there, but try as I might, they're too busy [...]
