Charles Mingus - Right Now: Live At The Jazz Workshop


Recorded in an important year in Mingus's musical career and life. It was in 1964 that Mingus would embark on a famed European tour, meet his wife, and lose one of his closest musical partners and personal friends in Eric Dolphy. This was recorded in San Francisco in early June of that year, presumably upon returning from Europe. Dolphy elected to stay in Europe, and would die tragically from complications relating to his diabetes at the end of this same month. The energy from the tour is very present here in Mingus's manic scat singing ("more! more!" he shouts to John Handy), and particularly in the interplay with him and drummer Dannie Richmond (who was to Mingus what John Gilmore was to Sun Ra). Handy, who was not part of the sextet that cut a triumphal path through the European continent, is featured alongside Clifford Jordan on the A side ("New Fables", a variation on Mingus's "Fables of Faubus" which at times strongly recalls "Tijuana Moods"), while Jordan takes the horn helm on the B side. The pianist's chair here is filled by Jane Getz, who, while energetic, is quite reserved and sober in interesting contrast to the untamed and eclectic energy of Jaki Byard. 

Performers: Charles Mingus (bs), John Handy (a-sx), Clifford Jordan (t-sx), Jane Getz (pi), Dannie Richmond (dr)

Kevin Drumm & Jason Lescalleet - The Abyss


This is the first of two collaborative albums on Erstwhile by the US sound artists (2015's Busman's Holiday can be found below). The first half of the first disc is a malaise of threatening, abrasive drones, audio cut ups and vocal samples; this drops in to a low, cavernous drone on "The Abyss" which ascends slowly into warm tones, like crystalline light appearing in the dark. "The Echo of Your Past", which makes up the second disc in its entirety, lifts us out of the cavern and presents familiar sounds: crickets chirping, birds calling, planes overhead, then draws us through a slow crescendo of illuminating drones.

1.1. Dawn
1.2. Anger Alert
1.3. Flaws Played Thawed And Flayed
1.4. Abuse
1.5. Boatswain's Call

Kris Kristofferson & Rita Coolidge - Full Moon


The first of three albums released as a couple (essentially spanning the length of their marriagethey married in 1973 and divorced in 1980), this is a fine and tender collection of love songs. Kristofferson and Coolidge duet on some songs and take solos on others, and the overall feeling is intimate, relaxed and bohemian while maintaining something of a country twang. Highlights are a duet rendition of Kristofferson's "From the Bottle to the Bottom" and a cover of Bobby Charles' languid ballad "Tennessee Blues".

A2. It's Over (All Over Again)
A3. I Never Had It So Good

David Allan Coe - Underground Album


Of course one of Coe's most controversial releases, this album (for fairly obvious reasons) was sold only at shows or through mail order via Coe's own D.A.C. label. Happily though, this is not just an exercise in cheap shock value. The musicianship is tight, Coe is on form if sounding a little strung out (one wouldn't expect a clean and sober man to be writing these songs anyway, who cares), and songs like "Nigger Fucker", "One More Time", "Little Susie Shallow Throat" and "Fuckin' in the Butt" are genuinely hilarious. More than anything, the sense of fun and endless good times pervades.

A1. Rock And Roll Fever
A2. Panheads Forever
A3. Nigger Fucker
A4. Coffee
A5. One Monkey

Merle Haggard - Sing Me Back Home


In all senses a complete album, not just a collection to support a hit, Sing Me Back Home is one of the finest from the late singer. The title track was written for a friend of Haggard's on death row at San Quentin: "Even though the crime was brutal and the guy was an incorrigible criminal, it's a feeling you never forget when you see someone you know make that last walk. They bring him through the yard, and there's a guard in front and a guard behind - that's how you know a death prisoner. They brought Rabbit out... taking him to see the Father,... prior to his execution. That was a strong picture that was left in my mind." The themes are, of course, very familiar: boozing and heartbreak. But Haggard's voice soars above, confident in its sorrow and as comforting as the wine he sings of. The sentiments of songs like Wine Take Me Away, Where Does the Good Times Go, I'll Leave the Bottle on the Bar and My Past is Present—not just the melodies—stay in the head for days after listening.

A1. Sing Me Back Home

Dwight Yoakam - Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc.


Possibly the greatest country album of the 1980s, Yoakam's debut has a sleak, urban sound carried by his seamless lead vocals. Yoakam certainly has as much in personality singing classics like Honky Tonk Man, Ring of Fire and Heartaches by the Number as he does his own originals, and the two blend very well together to the point the untrained ear couldn't easily tell them a part. Yoakam is skilled at painting himself as the lead man in the picturebook misfortunes of his fast life, and Guitars, Cadillacs... is the beginning of a great discography and a gripping American saga.  

1. Honky Tonk Man
2. It Won't Hurt
3. I'll Be Gone
4. South Of Cincinnati
5. Bury Me
6. Guitars, Cadillacs

David Allan Coe - The Mysterious Rhinestone Cowboy


"Anyone that would look at me and say I was a racist would have to be out of their mind. I have dreadlocks down to my waist with earrings in both ears and my beard is down to my waist and it is in braids... I was in prison with 87% black people and I hung around with black people and learned to sing music with black people. It was ironic that in prison the white guys called me a 'nigger lover' and now I write the word 'nigger' in a song and I am all of a sudden a racist. It is pretty ironic." Country firebrand Coe apparently no longer owns the rights to these songs: they were sold in a bankruptcy auction without his knowledge. Nevertheless, they are a stunning example of mid-seventies outlaw country music. The arrangements are tight and varied and Coe's vocals are crystal clear, matched by his mournful, if eclectic, storytelling. Coe spoke of his fondness for Kris Kristofferson, and this is definitely apparently in the tone of his lyrics, and in his vocal style on tracks like "Atlanta Song".

Hank Mobley - Workout


One of the high water marks of mid-50s early 60s hard bop. The mood here is beyond casual and effortless, with the sense of calm exertion the title suggests. The rhythm section of Kelly, Chambers and Jones is, of course, an historic combination, and as well as Mobley on top form (unhampered by the lung problems that sadly would affect his musical career significantly within a decade), you have Grant Green displaying meaty, ground chops that show him very much in his element, reaching stunning peaks and avoiding the showboating that could sometimes hamper his performance as a sideman.

Performers: Hank Mobley (t-sx), Grant Green (gt), Wynton Kelly (pi), Paul Chambers (bs), Philly Joe Jones (dr)

Art Farmer - Farmer's Market


Enjoyable outing from a pre-Jazztet Art Farmer. Hank Mobley appears on tenor on all but two tracks (the ballad 'Reminiscing' and muted vamp 'By Myself') and Farmer's trumpet is backed by the always terrific Kenny Drew on piano, be-bop mainstay Addison Farmer on bass, and an early appearance from Elvin Jones on drums; the latter should need no introduction. The mood here is light, airy and has all of the carefree hustle and bustle the title suggests. Even the more sombre numbers have the comfort in them of a breezy weekend afternoon. 

Performers: Art Farmer (tp), Hank Mobley (t-sx), Kenny Drew (pi), Addison Farmer (bs), Elvin Jones (dr)
