Ella Fitzgerald Twelve Nights in Hollywood

Twelve Nights With Ella!

This set of 73 unreleased live recordings show Ella in her absolute prime. It's more than a glimpse of Ella at her height, though. It's as if you get to hang out at the Crescendo, hearing her joke with the crowd, then turn around a jaw-dropping improvisation with ease.

Nellie McKay: Normal As Blueberry Pie, Tribute To Doris Day

Oscar Peterson: The Clef/Mercury Duo Recordings 1949-51

Wait till You See Her

"Another sterling entry into [John Abercrombie's] vast discography. Essentially, the quartet presents an alliance that offers symmetrical notions of eloquence and gutsy determination. They impart subtle chamber stylizations, mainly used for shading and sentiment... Overall, the band prods your neural network in rather persuasive fashion." -JazzReview.com

Brian Culbertson: Live From the Inside

Jazz Icons IV - 7 New DVDs!

Loren Stillman's Winter Fruits

"An impressive follow-up to the saxophonist's stellar Blind Date... Dispelling any notions of typical jazz organ ensembles, Stillman's organ-centric quartet performs compositions that are denoted by an aesthetic of mood, darker hues, and lush contours that are uniquely atmospheric." -All About Jazz
