This unique session contains five selections from a date featuring the great tenor Coleman Hawkins, pianist Hank Jones, bassist George Duvivier and drummer Shelly Manne. Both "Take the 'A' Train" and "Cherokee" find the group at times playing two tempos at once and showing that they had heard some of the avant-garde players. The most swinging piece, "Avalon," was previously available only on a sampler while "Me and Some Drums" features Hawkins and Manne in a very effective duet with the veteran tenor making his only recorded appearance on piano during the first half. The set is rounded out by a pair of trio features for Eddie Costa (with Duvivier and Manne); one song apiece on vibes and drums. A very interesting set with more than its share of surprises.

A Love Supreme is the essential document of the genius of John Coltrane and remains one of the most important and influential jazz records ever made. The four-part suite finds Coltrane yearning for spiritual and musical freedom while coalescing the hard bop sensibilities of his early career with the free jazz style that he would adopt later on. Trane is without a doubt an artist whose sincerity and integrity shines through his work and A Love Supreme is as genuine and fully realized as they come.

"…As much as I'd love to relay all kinds of anecdotes about the challenges Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray encounter during the mastering sessions, I witness none.

Since his days with the Bud Powell Trio, drummer Art Taylor was an invaluable member of the Blue Note recording family. A.T.'s Delight is the only album made under his own name for the label and it is a remarkable one. Choosing great compositions by Coltrane, Monk, Denzil Best and Kenny Dorham, Taylor assembled a great quintet fronted by Dave Burns and Stanley Turrentine, often adding Patato's congas to the proceedings. The unique and varied arrangements and great playing pay tribute to the drummer's exceptional song selection.

$18.99
Vinyl LP & 7" Bonus LP - Sealed

Mustard Plug's first official Album, Big Daddy Multitude was released well before ska became a household word, but after Mustard Plug had spawned a large Midwest following. Again originally released on Dashiki Clout Records, it was soon picked up by ska powerhouse Moon Ska Records. With Moon's distribution, Mustard Plug found an international audience ready for Ska to explode. Soon after the release of Big Daddy Multitude, the Plug began to tour nationally and amassed a moderately sized, yet solid fanbase.
The band had developed a better understanding of writing and playing since Skapocalypse Now! The songs were cohesive, catchy and great to skank to. Some tracks were released on compilations and quickly became "hits" in the still underground Ska scene. After the unfortunate demise of Moon Ska Records, this CD was re-released on Hopeless Records in May of 2001, and now finally available on vinyl for the first time by Asbestos Records.

Steve Hoffman, Kevin Gray, Chad Kassem, and Don MacInnis have done Rudy Van Gelder and his Blue Note artists proud." – Jason Victor Serinus, Stereophile, April 2008
Lou Donaldson's undisputed masterpiece, Blues Walk, marks the point where the altoist began to decisively modify his heavy Charlie Parker influence and add a smoky, bluesy flavor of his own. The material is still firmly in the bebop style, and the mellower moments aren't as sleepy as some of Donaldson's subsequent work, so the album sounds vital and distinctive even as it slows down and loosens things up. What elevates Blues Walk to classic status is its inviting warmth. Donaldson's sweetly singing horn is melodic throughout the six selections, making even his most advanced ideas sound utterly good-natured and accessible. The easy-swinging title cut is arguably Donaldson's signature tune even above his late-'60s soul-jazz hits, and his other two originals, "Play Ray" and "Callin' All Cats," are in largely the same vein.

After establishing himself as a new star with Miles Davis quintet, the Thelonious Monk quartet, and various Prestige recordings with Sonny Rollins, Hank Mobley, and Tadd Dameron, John Coltrane made his debut as a leader with this LP. It was also the first album on any label to showcase what came to be known as the classic John Coltrane Quartet. That group, with McCoy Tyner on piano, Jimmy Garrison on bass, and Elvin Jones on drums, established itself in its four years of existence as one of the most influential ensembles in jazz, and one of the most popular as well. The quartet offers wonderful readings here of "The Inch Worm" and "Out Of This World" plus the tracks "Soul Eyes," "Tunji" and "Miles' Mode."

 Dear Catastrophe Waitress
Belle And Sebastian
$29.99
Vinyl LP + MP3 - 2 LPs Sealed
PRE-ORDER

For a band with such a modest, homespun feel as Scottish cult heroes Belle & Sebastian, the utilization of a big pop producer like Trevor Horn is an interesting choice. It proves to be a stroke of brilliance, however as Horn wonderfully expands Belle & Sebastian's palette here in a completely organic, extremely effective manner. The arrangements are more fleshed-out than usual, the textures more varied and the overall sound a bit more sprightly and sunny. The interaction of Belle & Sebastian's trademark twisted-twee songcraft and unerring melodic sensibility with the effervescence of Horn's production makes Dear Catastrophe Waitress one of the group's most instantly appealing albums. Includes the hit singles, "Step Into My Office, Baby" and "I'm A Cuckoo." Housed in a gatefold sleeve with an MP3 coupon.

Elvin Jones was nearing the end of his long stay with John Coltrane when he led these sessions in 1965, and while the style is small-group post-bop, the music is very different from the thick textures of the Coltrane quartet. The core band is a trio with the Charlie Parker-influenced alto saxophonist Charlie Mariano and the brilliant bassist Richard Davis. Mariano soars overhead on a series of lyrical standards, including "Everything Happens to Me" and "This Love of Mine." Roland Hanna joins the group for the first three selections, and Elvin's brother, Hank for the last four. Of the Hanna tracks, Charles Mingus's "Love Bird" stands out, while Hank Jones' crisp and inventive lines shine on the classic bop of "Anthropology" and Ellington's "Fantazm."

For Didn't It Feel Kinder, Amy Ray's (Indigo Girls) third solo recording and most ambitious independent effort to date, she once again trades in her acoustic guitar for an electric, cranks her amp and reaffirms her position as one of the truest, most striking voices in contemporary music. The singer-songwriter's style and lyricism reflect her many musical influences, breaking new ground for avid Indigo Girls followers and her solo career fans alike. New listeners will follow Ray through a rich musical landscape that is both intimate and grand.
For the first time, Ray enlisted a producer for her solo work. Greg Griffith (The Butchies, Le Tigre, Loudspeaker, Vitapup), a fearless listener and multi-talented musician, worked with Ray to incorporate a variety of sounds and influences to create her unique and evolving voice throughout the album. Guests include former Butchies and longtime Ray collaborators Kaia Wilson and Melissa York, guitarist Tomi Martin (Three5Human, Madonna, TLC), Brandi Carlile on backing vocals and special guests, Arizona.
Didn't It Feel Kinder is a thoughtful, political album and a call to reason by an artist who's intertwined activism and social consciousness into her music and remained fresh and relevent over a career spanning two decades.

For years Duke Ellington and tenor saxophonist Coleman Hawkins promised each other that they would one day find a way to collaborate on an album. Finally, in 1962, they recorded at the famed Rudy Van Gelder Studios in New Jersey, with a small personnel from the Ellington band. The event was marked by the combination of the guest tenor's distinctive and expansive tones, the rich ensemble sound, and of course, the extraordinary Ellington compositions. Duke Ellington covered the piano and brought with him Aaron Bell, brass; Lawrence Brown, trombone; Sam Woodyard, drums; and Ray Nance, cornet and violin. What became obvious almost immediately was the interplay of Hawkin's tenor and Harry Carney on alto saxophone and the alto voicing of Johnny Hodges. Highlights include the infectious calypso-like opening of "Limbo Jazz" that moves from solos by Hodges, Ray Nance and Lawrence Brown to a solo by Coleman Hawkins. Ellington's classic "Mood Indigo" is the perfect vehicle for Hawkins with his rich, resonant phrasing. "Wanderlust," which was first recorded in 1938, is revived here with Lawrence Brown and Ray Nance contributing to the blues mood of the piece. Duke Ellington Meets Coleman Hawkins features two legendary masters of jazz in a meeting that remains as masterful and thrilling as it did when it first took place in 1962.

This legendary 1961 date has a friendly after-hours feel, with the Ellington crew in the right channel and the Basie band in the left. They both deliver the type of no-nonsense straight-ahead jazz that characterized the best of the big-band sound. The sparring here between soloists of both bands is a pure delight, especially the gentle conversations between the two leaders-pianists, who finish each other's thoughts as if all four hands were attached to one unified torso. Highlights include two engaging new Duke compositions, the blistering opener "Battle Royal" and the impulsive "Wild Man" and the closing Basie chestnut "Jumpin' at the Woodside."

With the perfect rhythm section of Sonny Clark, Butch Warren and Billy Higgins, this tenor giant reinvents standards like "Three O'clock In The Morning," "Second Balcony Jump" and "Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out To Dry" and introduces his most famous composition, "Cheese Cake."

"...As much as I'd love to relay all kinds of anecdotes about the challenges Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray encounter during the mastering sessions, I witness none. These boys know the sound of the facility and the Van Gelder masters like the backs of their hands. Back home a month later, I unpack some test pressings Chad Kassem has sent me. I hear the most realistic-sounding drums ever reproduced by my system.

Green Street, recorded on April 1, 1961, was Grant Green's second Blue Note album as a leader and remains one of the finest albums of his prolific Blue Note output. Supported by just Ben Tucker's bass and Dave Bailey's drums, the guitarist seems inspired by the absence of any other chordal instrument. His harmonic and interpretive imagination is in high gear on this unique masterpiece in his discography.

Ace Hood, born Antoine McColister in Broward County, Florida, knew he was destined for greatness. After an injury derailed his burgeoning football career, Ace turned to his true passion, rapping. At the age of 17, Ace teamed up with the Broward-County-based entertainment label, Dollaz & Dealz, to record the hit “M.O.E. (Money Over Everything)" which sparked an immediate buzz in South Florida. After fine-tuning his craft on local crowds, he set his sights on performing for DJ Khaled at his annual birthday bash. “We was outside the radio station not even trying to get a deal, just hoping to perform at his birthday bash,” Ace recalls. Although DJ Khaled had to go to a meeting, he stopped, looked at Ace and said, “I love your image!” Ace handed him his demo CD which resulted in a phone call to Ace’s manager that night. Khaled said, “I love his swag, I hear starvation in his music and I want to take a meeting with him.” That meeting turned into Ace becoming the first artist signed to “We the Best Music Group,” an exclusive partnership with Def Jam Recordings. Since then, Ace has released two singles, which set the stage for this, his debut album, Gutta.

 How We Lost

How We Lost is actually a celebratory album. It’s a reflective record and, in its own way, celebrates the Windsor For The Derby continuum that’s been culled from their first release, Calm Hades Float in 1996 to their last, Giving Up the Ghost from 2005. Each of these recordings is a sequel to the next both musically and in narrative, especially since the band found themselves in constant dialogue about their body of work and the paths they’d chosen due to the rerelease of their first two records Calm Hades Float and Minnie Greutzfeldt. Also a part of that ongoing dialogue were the records that the band found itself consistently re-visiting, Swell Maps, Section 25, Psychic TV and what it was that made those recordings timeless and resonate in a personal way to the band. The songs on How We Lost is about the ways they've changed over the years, the things they hold onto and what’s been left behind.

 Impala Eardrums: A Radium Sampler
Various Artists

For fifteen years, Table of the Elements has been the preeminent source of avant audio, championing minimal, improvised and outsider music. Now, as its influence radiates outward, the label presents Radium, its "rock" imprint, showcased here with Impala Eardrums: A Radium Sampler. While minimalist legend Rhys Chatham leads the way with a delightful unreleased piece from his mid-80s archives, most of the other contributors are younger folks, from a new generation of performers. It's a diverse bunch, ranging from the raw Americana of Megafaun and Jonathan Kane, to the humid, pulsating krautrock of Ateleia and the spectral songcraft of Paul Duncan. Neptune serves up its version of home-forged proto-clangor, while Collections of Colonies of Bees and School of Seven Bells pour forth in glistening, shimmering waves. Together, these eight tracks, all previously unreleased, have one thing in common; a resolute will to march headlong into the untamed brambles and briar patches of 21st-century sound.
“Table of the Elements was established in 1993, and since then has released some of the most gorgeous looking and most aurally intriguing releases to grace the music scene. Providing a home to such artists as the hugely respected avant-garde violinist Tony Conrad, harpist Zeena Parkins, Krautrock kings Faust, Sonic Youth mainman Thurston Moore, guitar god Loren Connors, Japanese noise merchant Keiji Haino, British weird-folk lynchpin Richard Youngs and the late Derek Bailey among many, many others, it is pretty easy to see the kind of influence they have had. Fifteen years on and the label shows no signs of letting up. Without Table of the Elements the world would be a far duller place.” - Boomkat

 In Ghost Colours
Cut Copy
$15.99
Vinyl LP - Sealed
PRE-ORDER
|
Cut Copy make their return in 2008 with the shimmering timelessness of In Ghost Colours. Haunted with machines of the past and sounds of the future, Cut Copy inhabit the kind of space in time where trends are irrelevant and music is about feeling rather than following and 1969 is just as relevant as 2020. At once both jacking and jangly, electronic and organic, Cut Copy have crafted a record filled with glorious sounds and moods that unashamedly pop with hooks and melodies that are equally contagious.
In Ghost Colours traverses genres effortlessly, from already-anthem “Hearts On Fire's" epic sax-house to the noisy blissout of “So Haunted.” For Cut Copy the record was an exercise in drawing parallels between favorites old and new. From the vocodered robo-pop of French house to prog’s soaring harmonies to the texture of shoegaze, In Ghost Colours lands at some sort of trans-galaxial intersection in between it all.
This idea was something that appealed to Tim Goldsworthy, DFA’s inhouse producer, programming guru, synth mogul and eventually ‘muse’ for In Ghost Colours. Goldsworthy was enlisted and the band travelled to New York to spend 6 weeks tracking In Ghost Colours at DFA’s Plantain Studio in the West Village.

 Inception
McCoy Tyner
$49.99
45 RPM 180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - 2 LPs Sealed
PRE-ORDER
|
Those familiar with the dense, percussive style that pianist McCoy Tyner has cultivated since the 1970s onwards may be surprised by what they hear on Inception. Like Reaching Fourth and Nights of Ballads and Blues, this album gives listeners the chance to hear what a very young Tyner sounded like outside the confines of the classic John Coltrane quartet of the early '60s; it reveals a lyrical approach to jazz piano that seems a far cry from Tyner's mature style. The choice of material is fairly evenly split between modal pieces like "Inception" and more harmonically involved tunes like "Speak Low," and the pianist's treatment of both demonstrates the extent to which his early work was rooted in bebop. Tyner had yet to develop the massive orchestral sound and highly distinctive vocabulary of modal licks that would mark his later style, and throughout this album he spins dizzyingly long and singing lines with an exquisitely light touch. The irresistible rush of forward momentum that he maintains on tracks like "Effendi" and "Blues for Gwen" is breathtaking, and there is an exuberant, almost athletic quality to much of his solo work. Bassist Art Davis and drummer Elvin Jones provide superb accompaniment throughout, and they lay a solid rhythmic foundation for Tyner's sparkling melodic flights. The pianist's penchant for drama, which asserts itself more strongly in his later work, is on brief display in the original ballad "Sunset"; his skills as an arranger, though evident on several tracks, are perhaps best illustrated by the intricate contrapuntal treatment of "There Is No Greater Love."

Two weeks after Ike Quebec recorded his comeback album Heavy Soul for Blue Note, he was back at the Van Gelder Studio with the same band (Freddie Roach, Milt Hinton and Al Harewood), making a second album. The confidence paid off because It Might As Well Be Spring is every bit the classic the first album proved to be. Quebec's big-toned, vulnerable tenor playing is a thing to behold, as his heart-stopping version of the title tune, "Lover Man" and "Willow Weep For Me" attest. "Easy – Don't Hurt" is one of his blues masterpieces.

Tricky is back with a brand new album titled Knowle West Boy, named after the Bristol neighborhood where he grew up. The album finds Tricky seizing his roots and detailing the travels and travails of his youth, resulting in a record that acts as an eclectic aural history of his diverse upbringing. Produced by Tricky, and mixed by Switch (MIA, Santogold) Knowle West Boy was recorded in London and L.A. and is the summation of everything he has accomplished since his brilliant 1995 Maxinquaye debut.The album finds Tricky reaching into the post-punk, Two-Tone, reggae, hip hop and pop he grew up adoring and twisting it all into surreal songscapes. From the sardonic bar-room blues of “Puppy Toy,” to the twisted Specials-worshipping, hard charging punk of lead single “Council Estate,” to the bereft torchery of “Past Mistake,” to the Roxy Music’s The Bogus Man-at-the-dancehall art-stomp of “Bacative;” Tricky uses his astonishingly eclectic band and a host of great undiscovered singers to create the most varied and accessible set of his career.

While their records were entertaining and full of skillful pop, it wasn’t until At Budokan that Cheap Trick’s vision was truly realized. Songs like “I Want You to Want Me” and “Big Eyes” were pleasant enough in their original form, but seemed more like sketches compared to the roaring versions that appear here. With their ear-shatteringly loud guitars and sweet melodies, Cheap Trick unwittingly paved the way for much of the hard rock of the next decade and At Budokan is the essential document of the band at the absolute top of their game.

By the mid '70s, Detroit rocker Bob Seger had built a solid fanbase with non-stop touring, but had yet to garner mainstream success. Like so many other rock acts of that decade (Kiss, Peter Frampton, Cheap Trick), Seger used the live album format to serve as his much sought-after commercial breakthrough, 1976's Live Bullet. Having released a total of eight studio albums between 1968 and 1975, Seger had quite a bit of material to choose from. Highlights include the uptempo rocker "Katmandu," the working musician's touring tale of "On the Road Again" and "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man."

"When my producer, Tommy LiPuma, and I were deciding on the songs for my newest record, it never occurred to me that the songs we ultimately chose would be all about love. I selected songs that I personally liked, and that had a special meaning for me. However, as is often the case during the creative process, a connection among the songs just seemed to organically appear. The songs are indeed about romance. But to me there is a broader and more personal attachment to each of the songs than the standard definition of romantic love might imply. I think that these songs represent the strength of love, including the love of family and friends. But rather than describing my own thoughts about each song, it is my hope that all of you who listen to the music and read the lyrics will discover and imagine your own personal "love scenes" among the mountains, oceans, rain and gardens of these songs." - Diana Krall

• The tube cutting amps used for the ORG LP reissues have just been re-tubed with ex-US military grade tubes from Sylvania
The perfect blend of passionate tenor saxophone and sensual baritone vocals, John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman is one of the most romantic albums ever recorded.

Mad Dogs & Englishmen was the tour that transformed Joe Cocker into a rock luminary. Take a huge, pulsating, juggernaut of a band with three drummers and two percussionists, a lethal horn section and ten-strong Space Choir; add a piano-playing, guitar-wielding ringmaster complete with top hat; mix with drugs, alcohol, love, jealousy and huge egos and massive talent and add the phenomenal voice of Joe Cocker. What you get is one of the craziest, loudest, longest rock and roll circus' to have ever hit America.
This classic live album showcases Joe Cocker in his absolute prime, his vocal performance driven by probably the hottest and most powerful band he ever had. Recorded at the Fillmore East during the first week on the road, Mad Dogs & Englishmen captures all the excitement and exhilaration of a tour that has gone down in history. Over thirty-five years later, it remains an extraordinary record, one that defines the spirit of a generation in much the same way as Woodstock and The Last Waltz. Reissued here on 180g Double LP!

NEW 180G PRESSING EXPECTED IN MAY! ACCEPTING PRE-ORDERS NOW!
This is a beautiful collaboration between two brilliant guitarists that recalls the sound of late '50's/early '60's pop instrumentals with a Cuban jazz influence. Many of the ballads evoke the feel of classic slow surf-guitar instrumentals. The recording expertly captures the electric guitar sound cleanly and with great detail.
Ry Cooder is best-known these days for his monumental Buena Vista Social Club project but should also be remembered for his fabulous emotive soundtracks and his series of eclectic albums ranging from country to blues to Hawaiian music. This new album re-introduces the pianist, organist, and guitarist extraordinaire, Manuel Galbán. In the 1950's, he pioneered a tough, rocking guitar style full of reverb and bent notes that is considered by Cuban musicians to be unique in their music. More than the American pop-jazz of the time, this collaboration hearkens back to the futuristic creations of modern Cuban composers of the period.
Says Cooder, ''Galbán and I felt that there was a sound that had not been explored a Cuban electric-guitar band that could re-interpret the atmosphere of the 1950s with beauty, agility, and simplicity. We decided on two electrics, two drum sets, congas and bass: a sexteto that could swing like a big band and penetrate the mysteries of the classic tunes. This music is powerful, lyrical, and funny; what more could you ask? Mambo Sinuendo is Cuban soul and high-performance.''
For the album, Cooder has enlisted the bassist for all the Buena Vista Social Club sessions, Orlando Cachaíto López. The percussionists include longtime collaborator Jim Keltner; Cooder's son, Joachim Cooder, another Buena Vista veteran; and the conga master Miguel Angá Díaz.

Umphrey's McGee's new studio release, Mantis, is an exponential evolution in the band's composition, arrangements and group interplay. In a band first, the album offers 100% new material; this is a drastic change of pace for a band whose typical modus operandi is to work out the material live on-stage before recording studio versions. Mantis is already creating plenty of anticipation and chatter among fans and the music industry alike.

Blue Note Reissue
"…As much as I'd love to relay all kinds of anecdotes about the challenges Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray encounter during the mastering sessions, I witness none. These boys know the sound of the facility and the Van Gelder masters like the backs of their hands…Back home a month later, I unpack some test pressings Chad Kassem has sent me…I hear the most realistic-sounding drums ever reproduced by my system. It's as though I'm sitting at the point of creation, experiencing the same high that brought such gifted musicians together as one. Steve Hoffman, Kevin Gray, Chad Kassem, and Don MacInnis have done Rudy Van Gelder and his Blue Note artists proud." – Jason Victor Serinus, Stereophile, April 2008
Art Blakey's most successful album gave us Bobby Timmons' "Moanin'" and Benny Golson's "Along Came Betty" and "Blues March," tunes so powerful that Blakey played them almost every night for the next 30 years. This beautifully performed and recorded session made the Jazz Messengers a jazz institution and put Golson, Timmons and Morgan to the forefront of jazz.

Along with the Stooges, the New York Dolls were largely responsible for pioneering the sound and attitude of punk, and this, their self-titled debut, is one of the founding documents of post-'60s rock. Outrageous, shambolic and bursting with energy, the Dolls borrowed from the amped-up, bluesy swagger of the Rolling Stones, the pop confections of Phil Spector, and the campy theatrics that would flower with the glam movement, yet brought it all together with a visceral impact that recalled the jolt of early rock & roll. Now available here on 180g Import LP.

McCoy Tyner, in his third album under his own name, vividly illustrates he is one of those rare jazz musicians with the kind of creative talent that bridges the gap between erudite jazz and lyrical commercial appeal. Like Erroll Garner and Dave Brubeck, Tyner has 'something' that engenders a universal listening response and Night Of Ballad And Blues brilliantly reinforces that sentiment.

By the mid '70s, Detroit rocker Bob Seger had built a solid fanbase with non-stop touring, but had yet to garner mainstream success. Like so many other rock acts of that decade (Kiss, Peter Frampton, Cheap Trick), Seger used the live album format to serve as his much sought-after commercial breakthrough, 1976's Live Bullet. Having released a total of eight studio albums between 1968 and 1975, Seger had quite a bit of material to choose from. Highlights include the uptempo rocker "Katmandu," the working musician's touring tale of "On the Road Again" and "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man."

No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith is a definitive metal document and it captures Motörhead's Lemmy, Fast Eddie, and Philthy Animal Taylor in their element, live! Motorhead revisits the cream of their back catalog here, leaving their already power-packed studio counterparts in the dust in the process. With the exception of "Iron Horse/Born To Lose" which was from a 1980 show, the album was recorded at the Leeds and Newcastle shows during the Short, Sharp Pain In The Neck five-date tour in 1981. The name of the tour was a reference to the injury sustained by Philthy Animal Taylor when he was dropped on his head during some after show horseplay. Despite the title of the album, the London venue the Hammersmith Odeon was not played on the tour.

A modern-day Renaissance Man, Jeb Loy Nichols is a musician, songwriter and visual artist whose creative path has taken him from his birthplace in the Midwest, to London, and rural Wales. Parish Bar “was made at home, over the past couple years, in between other projects. Some of the tracks came quickly, other tracks crawled into being, a layer at a time,” Nichols explains. “It all started because I was involved in doing a series of wood cuts entitled Ghost Yard. Ghost Yard was a public park in the Bronx where Afrika Bambaataa birthed Zulu Nation and helped bring about the age of hip-hop. When I lived in NYC in 1979 - 83, I went to the parties that Bambaataa threw there. Like the music, the parties were grass roots affairs, a collection of sounds and influences that said: what you see is what you get! This is who we are and that’s what I wanted to say with Parish Bar. This is who I was and who I am! No big deal, just relax and have a good time."

Along with his one-time teacher Joe Satriani, six string wizard Steve Vai set the standard for rock guitar virtuosity in the ‘80s. Having toured and recorded with Frank Zappa, followed by stints with Alcatrazz, David Lee Roth and Whitesnake, Vai released his major label full-length debut, Passion And Warfare, an album which finds Vai truly coming into his own as a distinguished composer and it's arguably the richest and best hard rock guitar virtuoso album of its time.
