We'll Soon Find Out
''We'll Soon Find Out'' is an album by drummer Joey Baron which was recorded in 1999 and released on Schott Music's Intition label. Reception In his review for Allmusic, Tim Sheridan calls it " a nice mix of soulful jazz and progressive post-bop. An all around winning effort". On All About Jazz Glenn Astarita said "''We’ll Soon Find Out'' offers breezy passages, finger snapping rhythms, strong yet unobtrusive and quite thoughtful soloing in accordance with Baron’s conspicuous compositional pen... Baron, Frisell, Blythe and Carter shine forth with a candid demeanor while also providing a clinic of sorts - on the art of making good music that certainly strikes a memorable chord". In JazzTimes Ron Wynn noted "Baron's Down Home Band eschews the rowdy approach in their playing; this date's about atmosphere much more than mood. Yet it's not so introspective the music gets boring. Rather, Joey Baron and the Down Home Band manage the tough task of going inside, while retaining the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Jazz
Jazz is a music genre that originated in the African-American communities of New Orleans, Louisiana in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with its roots in blues and ragtime. Since the 1920s Jazz Age, it has been recognized as a major form of musical expression in traditional and popular music. Jazz is characterized by swing and blue notes, complex chords, call and response vocals, polyrhythms and improvisation. Jazz has roots in European harmony and African rhythmic rituals. As jazz spread around the world, it drew on national, regional, and local musical cultures, which gave rise to different styles. New Orleans jazz began in the early 1910s, combining earlier brass band marches, French quadrilles, biguine, ragtime and blues with collective polyphonic improvisation. But jazz did not begin as a single musical tradition in New Orleans or elsewhere. In the 1930s, arranged dance-oriented swing big bands, Kansas City jazz (a hard-swinging, bluesy, improvisationa ...

Down Home (Joey Baron Album)
''Down Home'' is an album by the drummer Joey Baron, recorded in 1997 and released on Schott Music's Intition label. Reception In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow calls it "not quite a classic but certainly worthwhile". ''All About Jazzs Douglas Payne wrote: "''Down Home'', despite its brief 45-minute running time is, indeed, mighty fine; a hearty menu with plenty of meaty playing". In ''Jazziz'', Michael Ross wrote: "On ''Down Home'', Baron flips the coin and brings his Southern roots to the fore, with eight melodic, soul-jazz tunes full of groove... On this disc, Baron may eschew the falling-down-the-stairs percussion style that made him the darling of the avant-garde, but he is still composing melodies that are as daring as his chops".Ross, M., ''Jazziz'', March 1998, Volume 15 No. 3, p.76 Track listing ''All compositions by Joey Baron'' # "Mighty Fine" – 5:15 # "Little Boy" – 8:52 # "Wide Load" – 8:35 # "The Crock Pot" – 5:06 # "What" – 7:58 # "Listen to the Woma ...

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] |
