HBDirect Jazz Music News: The HBDirect April Jazz Sale Begins!

The April Jazz Sale!

This month at HBDirect we're offering six labels and select new releases at sale prices! We're also introducing a new program, Sound-Savings, which features more than 900 jazz titles priced below $8.00.

Julian Lage's Debut

"Using four musical settings... Sounding Point is an eclectic album rife with vivid writing, imaginative playing and a seamless blend as challenging as it is listenable... Most artists his age are described in terms of promise; with Sounding Point, Lage bypasses promise and goes straight to delivery." -All About Jazz

New Releases From Emarcy

John Scofield: Piety Street

Clifton Anderson: Decade

E.S.T. (The Esbjorn Svensson Trio): Leucocyte

Copland: New York Trio Vol 3

"Copland's ties to the tradition are undeniable, but he's rarely swung as hard as he does here... Stewart makes Night Whispers an outstanding and definitive trio disc for Copland. On the merits of this seminal set, it would be almost criminal were this group to be but a one-time affair." -All About Jazz

Recent Releases From Pirouet Records

Nicolas Thys: Virgo

Various Artists: The Best Is Yet To Come

Marc Copeland: Another Place

Tim Hagans: Alone Together

Cassandra Wilson: Closer to You

"...her hypnotic, sensuous contralto transforms other people's work, often giving it a power and meaning never dreamt of before... Maybe she isn't a "jazz" singer at all, so much as a throwback to the days of the gifted interpreter." -Something Else Reviews

Marsalis, Silver & Green on Blue Note

Wynton Marsalis: He And She

Horace Silver: The Tokyo Blues

Grant Green: Street of Dreams
