Bohannon was a unique funk master with one foot in heavy funk/black rock, another in early disco. Some of this stuff sounds like it could have played on the radio yesterday... or tonight, you wouldnt even have to remix it. It is gritty, yet transy - - its funky and grooveable, there is bass and rhtyhm all over the place. Classic funk-a-haulics will love it as much as clubbers.

In 1979, Frank Zappa took a shine to an Eastern Indian rock/jazz violinist, L. Shankar. So much so that he produced an album with him, "Touch Me There." Not only does Frank produce, but he also co-writes half of the album and performs on one cut, "Dead Girls of London." So, not surprisingly, this disc sounds like much of the material Zappa was releasing around that time, even though it is technically a "Shankar" album. And, it sounds like a GOOD Zappa album - many of these cuts would feel right at home on late '70s/early '80s titles like "Studio Tan," "Ship Arriving Too Late...," "Lather," "Sleep Dirt," "You Are What You Is," etc. Of course, you must have some degree of musical adventurousness to appreciate the disc - imagine Frank's instrumental rock-jazz-classical fusion with violin solos featuring distinctly Raga Rock/Eastern phrasing. So, if you're open to it, it's great! Shankar's playing is incendiary and the rest of the band is ridiculously tight. "Dead Girls of London" is the most out-and-out Zappa-sounding tune, featuring Zappa vet Ike Willis and Frank on absurd vocals. Other highlights include accordian-laced "No More Mr. Girl" and the reggae-flavored "Knee-Deep in Heaters." At the time of this review, this title is out of print but it does pop up in used CD bins from time to time (honest, I've seen it myself more than once). Originally released on CD through Zappa's Barking Pumpkin label in '92.

For more than a decade, Lebanese oud master Rabih Abou-Khalil has infused traditional Arabic music of all stripes with elements of modern music from around the world, most notably jazz. Morton's Foot, Abou-Khalil's 13th album, doesn't flavor its Arabic melodies and rhythms with electronic programming. Instead, Abou-Khalil's fusion is done much in the same way that jazz musicians have embraced Klezmer or Indian music: it uses top-flight musicianship instead of beats and sounds to build the bridges. Here, the leader plays lengthy leads on oud that concentrate on rhythm just as much as melody as a five-piece support cast (drums, accordion, vocals, tuba, clarinet) follows his every twist and turn. Sometimes one leaps ahead to solo on their own, with clarinetist Gabriele Mirabassi and tuba player Michel Godard both doing yeoman's work. A uniformly strong effort by a truly unique innovator, Morton's Foot is ideal listening for fans who put free-ranging musicianship and innovation at a premium. - Tad Hendrickson

Allmusic.com:
The band on Morton's Foot is a truly international ensemble. Composer and master oud player Rabih Abou-Khalil has assembled a cast that includes accordionist Luciano Biondini and clarinetist Gabriele Mirabassi along with Michel Godard on tuba, Jarrod Cagwin on trap and frame drums, and exotic Italian vocalist Gavino Murgia. Abou-Khalil composed all the tracks here. He shares the front line with Biondini and Mirabassi as Godard adds a serious bottom-end punch to the rhythm section. Certainly there are precedents for a group like this: Richard Galliano's 1980s bands as well as Chris Speed and Brad Shepik's Pachora, for example. Abou-Khalil's compositions here, as on his other recordings, involve detailed, complex and labyrinthine melodic structures, though rhythmic invention and harmonic counterpoint add balance and offer tight turns of phrase and dynamic shifts. The title track, "Lobotomie Mi Baba Lu," and "Hopping Jack" are standout tracks, yet it is the sum of everything here that makes this one of Abou-Khalil's very best outings. ~ Thom Jurek

Jazzitude.com:
With Silver Rain Marcus Miller has crafted a really sharp amalgam of funk, rock, jazz, and R&B styles that has just the right amount of sheen without slipping into glibness. This is going to be a classic album a few years down the road, one that numerous young musicians will cite as having been influential in their development. Despite many triumphs as a leader, part of Miller's reputation has always rested on his years in Miles Davis' band and as the collaborator in creating the sound of Miles' last several recordings. Silver Rain makes clear how influential Miller was in crafting such Davis recordings as Tutu and Amandla. Davis must have been influential on Miller as well. Coming from a time when many styles of popular African American music were being brought back together to form a cohesive, whole musical language, Miller must have been drawn to Davis' constant challenge to himself to continue to innovate at all costs...

Amazon.com:
Marcus Miller is foremost known as a Grammy-winning bass player, but as he proves on Silver Rain, Miller is equally formidable as an arranger. Taking songs from a disparate mix of artists that includes Stevie Wonder, Duke Ellington, Jimi Hendrix, Edgar Winter, Beethoven and Prince, Miller's skills are in almost embarrassing abundance here. On Edgar Winter's 70s rock jam "Frankenstein", his band (including the likes of Kirk Whalum on tenor and Kenny Garret on alto) flat out wails, but Miller's slapping bass keeps the groove completely locked down. In contrast, his take on Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" sets the stage for Miller's mellow-groove skills while the cover of Stevie Wonder's "Boogie On Reggae a Woman" is Miller at his intricate, funky best. On Prince's "Girls & Boys", Macy Gray adds her swooping, sensual vocals while Eric Clapton sits in on the title track. Clocking in at around 75 minutes, this CD is full to bursting, but what's striking here is not the quantity, but the quality. Miller is able to effortlessly make this material his own; moreover he is able to take an impossibly diverse set of songs and construct an album with real cohesion and flow. There is a lot happening on this album, as multi-instrumentalist Miller swaps instruments, moods and musicians from tune to tune, to his credit, however, he never loses the trail. The result is an extremely enjoyable album and an apt platform for Miller's many, many talents. --Steve Duda

Amazon.com reviewer:
Hard to believe that Marcus Miller's first recorded appearances were nearly three decades ago. Easier to believe -- based on his track record (solo, as a producer, etc.) -- that anything new he puts out will offer a variety of fresh musical twists. Such is the case with SILVER RAIN, an album that should have considerable genre-crossing appeal. His fluid and funky electric bass playing is sharper than ever, and it should be noted that on the softer tunes he plays with as much or more nuance than perhaps I've ever heard by an electric bassist (almost like an acoustic guitar, yet without losing the deep qualities expected of a plugged-in bass). As if that's not enough, he assertively takes the lead with his bass clarinet on several cuts.

Besides Marcus' bass playing and overall musical direction, two aspects of this album stick out in particular. First, his eclectic choice of tunes. Of course, there's an update or two of the funk/jazz genre ala his days with Miles Davis (including "Bruce Lee"). Yet look how far and wide he reaches for material. There are personalized takes on material as diverse as Jimi Hendrix's "Power Of Soul," Stevie Wonder's "Boogie On Reggae Woman, a funk/jazz take on Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein" (air guitar, anyone?), Prince's "Girls & Boys," Duke Ellington's "Sophisticated Lady," Brenda Russell's "If Only For One Night" (a tune made famous by Luther Vandross), and even a bluesy adaptation of Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata."

Finally, Marcus has inserted a fine selection of guests into the mix. Veterans of past Miller CDs and tours are still on hand (trumpeter Patches Stewart, keyboardist Bernard Wright, drummer Poogie Bell, etc.), while recurring guests such as reedmen Kenny Garrett are back for more. Also on sax are the likes of Gerald Albright and Kirk Whalum. Then there are the vocalists, which include Lalah Hathaway, Macy Gray (on "Girls & Boys"), and a memorable vocal by Eric Clapton on the reggae-flavored title track (yes, he's got a guitar solo, too ... and there's an brief, unlisted reprise at the end of the CD). Familiar yet unpredictable is usually a winning formula, and that certainly holds true on this recommended album.

Recorded in the wake of the late Khan's triumphant performance at the 1985 WOMAD festival, this 10- track collection features the lighter, folkier side of the Pakistani classical music singer's repertoire. Accompanied by his nine-member "party" on acoustic guitar, mandolin, and a full complement of tabla and harmonium, Khan unleashes typically stunning vocal phrases marked by blinding speed, cutting tone, and unearthly ornamentation. The infectious "Yaad-E-Nabi Gulshan Mehka," with lyrics in praise of Muhammed, finds the qawwali singer at his most effervescent, while the ghazal (love song) "Mast Nazroon Se Allah Bachhae" features an insistent hand-clapped rhythm and the full Party chorus singing together in unison.

Recorded in the wake of the late Khan's triumphant performance at the 1985 WOMAD festival, this 10- track collection features the lighter, folkier side of the Pakistani classical music singer's repertoire. Accompanied by his nine-member "party" on acoustic guitar, mandolin, and a full complement of tabla and harmonium, Khan unleashes typically stunning vocal phrases marked by blinding speed, cutting tone, and unearthly ornamentation. The infectious "Yaad-E-Nabi Gulshan Mehka," with lyrics in praise of Muhammed, finds the qawwali singer at his most effervescent, while the ghazal (love song) "Mast Nazroon Se Allah Bachhae" features an insistent hand-clapped rhythm and the full Party chorus singing together in unison. --James Rotondi
Although the Kahn family had been developing a mastery of Qawwali (the singing of the devotional music of Islam) for over 600 years, Nusrat Fateh Ali Kahn originally had no intention of following the family tradition. It was a recurring dream--in which he was performing at a famous Muslim shrine atAjmer, India--that finally convinced Nusrat to take up the study. Astonishingly, his dream came true in 1979. While visiting the same temple as a pilgrim, he was invited inside tosing. Nusrat was the first Qawwal ever to receive this honour.
Upon hearing Kahn's astonishingly elastic and superhuman voice, neither this story nor the artist's subsequent rise to international success seems unbelievable. DEVOTIONAL AND LOVE SONGS combines traditional religious songs with sensuous secular songs about love. Backed by a chorus of singersand accompanied by tabla, harmonium, and mandolin, Kahn's singing conveys ecstatic power on each track. He casts loops and nets into the ether as if he is trying to capture heaven. This music is as meditative, energetic, and deeply spiritual as one might expect. But its sheer melodicism and accessibility may surprise the uninitiated. An excellent example ofa rare, beautiful, and deservedly sacred music.

Reviewer:
Nusrat Fateh Ali has a commanding voice and booming sonic presence. the Music of Qawalli is often an acquired listening experience. While i cannot speak for the listeners who listen to this musical form without knowing the linguistic intricacy and beauty mentioned in Qawalli verses, i can speak for the ones that do know the language its mostly sung in.

Musically the soundscape is beautiful and full of range and pleasing to the ear, knowing the lyrics behind it however gives the listener a totally new , almost religious sense of experience to this music, which most people feel is a very trance like state often that Whirling dervishes go into.

However, anyone can truly enjoy the bliss featured within Qawalli rhythms and melodies which often seem natural, resonating with the listener's mindsets. The Japanese have claimed to have said that God resides in the vocal chords of Nusrat. The range expressed herein might bring that statement to elevation. It is not for everyone though. Qawalli music often takes patience to grow into a listening experience. Once the rapture of the sounds have you, its hard to let go.

Quo is a Vertigo album by Status Quo featuring Francis Rossi, Richard Parfitt, Alan Lancaster and John Coghlan. Like the previous album Hello, it consisted entirely of songs written or co-written by the group. The only guest musicians featured were Bob Young and Tom Parker, who played harmonica and piano respectively on Break The Rules. This was the only track to be released as a single, and peaked in the UK at No. 8. The album's highest position reached was No. 2.

In retrospect this album is regarded as one of their heaviest, due largely to the influence of bassist Alan Lancaster, who co-wrote six of the eight tracks.

Put on this Fountain of Youth CD from Solitudes and wash away your worries. Drift away to a relaxing cove, a cool stream, to spring grass under a blue sky. This relaxation album was crafted to take you from a stressful state to a stress- free state. Use it at work for a 10 minute stress break at work or use it at home when you simply want to relax.

Ever growing in popularity are CDs with 'the sounds of nature' interwoven into the music, or as a constant undercurrent within the music. I've listened to several, and most of these offerings are in my opinion fairly cheesy as the 'natural sounds' are frequently electronically rendered and do not sound at all natural; usually the music itself seems trite and 'sugary-sweet.' THIS CD is different!! It features ACTUAL natural sounds throughout -- if you hear a bird, it's a digital recording of an actual bird recorded by Dan Gibson in the wild; if you hear a babbling brook, again, it's a digital recording of an actual babbling brook recorded by Dan Gibson in the wild.
