High Risk (album)
''High Risk'' is an album by trumpeter Dave Douglas that was released in June 2015 on Douglas' Greenleaf Music label. accessed July 27, 2015 Reception The review awarded the album 4 stars out of 5, stating "While the hallucinatory nature of ''High Risk'' certainly brings to mind trumpeter ' '70s and '80s electric period, Douglas smartly bucks direct comparisons by largely eschewing heavy effects on his own horn. He blends well into the band's soundscape, but continuously finds key moments for his trumpet's warm timbre to stand out".[...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sound Prints
''Sound Prints'' (subtitled ''Live at Monterey Jazz Festival'') is a live album by trumpeter Dave Douglas and saxophonist Joe Lovano recorded at the 2013 Monterey Jazz Festival. It was released on the Blue Note label in 2015 and features a live performance by Douglas and Lovano with pianist Lawrence Fields, bassist Linda Oh and drummer Joey Baron playing original material and two new compositions by Wayne Shorter. Reception Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars, stating: "Ultimately, Sound Prints walk the line between muscular, tangible post-bop and free-flowing, avant-garde playing; a tantalizing dance that never fails to leave an impression". In JazzTimes, Michael J. West wrote "the real meat of the recording, and of the band, is their interplay: harmony, counterpoint, call-and-response. It’s not what one might expect from a project inspired by Wayne Shorter. But Sound Prints is less about Shorter’s individual style than his audacity and innovation, and on those fronts ''Live' ...

Brazen Heart (album)
''Brazen Heart'' is a studio album by American trumpeter Dave Douglas which was released in October 2015 on Douglas' own Greenleaf Music label. The album bears a dedication to Douglas’s older brother, Damon, who died in June 2015 after a long fight with cancer. Reception Cormac Larkin of ''Irish Times'' stated "Ever the innovator, trumpeter Dave Douglas’s latest release, through his own Greenleaf label, is another brave attempt to change the way we consume music... Nothing beats the live experience, especially when it comes to improvisation, but these releases of entire live sets come a close second". Mark Milano of ''The Absolute Sound'' wrote "Douglas’ style here is restless and engaged in the moment in a way that reveals his time spent in less explicitly jazz-rooted free improvisation, favoring long lines with a soft attack and rarely lingering on a single note, while the writing and interplay provide a 1960s modern jazz backdrop and enough information to reward many li ...

Allmusic
AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as ''All Music Guide'' by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
