Here We Go Again: Celebrating the Genius of Ray Charles (Coming March 29th, 2011)

WILLIE NELSON, WYNTON MARSALIS & NORAH JONES CELEBRATE
THE GENIUS OF RAY CHARLES WITH HERE WE GO AGAIN;
NEW ALBUM TO BE RELEASED MARCH 29 ON BLUE NOTE

 RECORDED LIVE AT JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER, ALBUM IS A TRIBUTE
TO THE ICONIC STAR OF SOUL, R&B, COUNTRY, JAZZ & POP


Given the rousing artistic and commercial success of the first recorded collaboration of legendary country troubadour Willie Nelson and jazz statesman Wynton Marsalis on 2008’s Blue Note album Two Men With the Blues, it’s not surprising that the pair would rendezvous again. The New York Times called it “a smart and heartfelt record,” while Entertainment Weekly wrote that “Willie and Wynton may seem like an odd couple, but this live disc makes the country legend and jazz master sound like natural partners with Marsalis’ usual horn-fronted band doing the driving and Nelson settling in perfectly with his off-beat vocal phrasing.” To continue, please click “MORE”!

Eric Bibb | Booker’s Guitar (Coming Jan. 26th, 2010)


 
The story is as legendary as Robert Johnson at the crossroads, as old as the blues itself. A traveling musician has a chance encounter in the most unlikely of places with something mystical and powerful, and everything changes. Suddenly, everything is up for grabs, and the music – already rich and historically resonant – takes a whole new direction.

Alive Naturalsound Records is pleased to announce the release of T-MODEL FORD “The Ladies Man” on January 12th, 2010.
 
T-Model’s 80-something years old… his Mississippi Driver’s License says he’s 84, his US Passport says he’s 87, and he says he’s 88… so you decide. He started playing guitar based on Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf, but T’s only got one style: his own. T’s illiterate, so no use in talking to him about tuning. They call it “open T” because it’s his own unique sound.
