Miles Davis - Early Minor: Rare Miles From The Complete In a
Silent Way Sessions
During the year between the dissolution of his ‘60s quintet
and the groundbreaking Bitches Brew, Miles Davis recorded a number of
transitional sessions creating music of lyrical beauty, culminating in the
masterful album In a Silent Way. Three superb pieces—“Splashdown,” “Early
Minor” and “The Ghetto Walk”—come to vinyl for general release for the first time
ever, as originally heard on The Complete In a Silent Way Sessions, released in
2001. Side A: 1. “Splashdown” (8:02) 2.
“Early Minor” (6:58). Side B: 1. “The Ghetto Walk” (26:47).
John Fluker - All About That Time
A top vocal coach for J Lo and musical director for Gladys
Knight who's also backed everyone from Beyonce and Mavis Staples to John Legend
and Michael Lington, pianist, vocalist, arranger and composer John Fluker's
hypnotic, ambient electronica piano driven new single "All About That Time"
has fascinating origins. The track is a rhythm intensive remix (by Grammy
winning engineer Elliott Peters) of the new age-oriented title track that
Fluker recorded on his album 11:11. The intoxicating, slightly jazzier, funkier
result features unique beats created by Fluker, backed by the subtle tight
basslines of Isaias Elpes, Lee Ritenour's regular touring bassist. With the
release of "All About That Time" Fluker makes an inspiring transition
from successful new age artist to breakthrough Smooth Jazz artist. ~ www.smoothjazz.com
