RadioJAZZ.FM CD of the week is the latest album, Le Nguyen released in early 2011 by the Act! This excellent disc, captivated me so much that I decided to bring the studio is also a few other of his earlier recordings. Perhaps there are also those among the listeners who listen to our radio only in the evenings, so I do not have another opportunity to listen to the latest production of this exquisite guitar. So a couple of tracks from "Songs Of Freedom" certainly also listen.
But let's start with one of the recordings from the album "Purple: Celebrating Jimi Hendrix". It was recorded in 2002, an album dedicated to the author's vision of well-known compositions from the repertoire of Jimi Hendrix. This seemingly impossible. Such ideas end up copying a master, or incompetent, or wydziwionymi on the strength of the experiments that the discovery did not lead anything. Album Nguyen Le is one of the few exceptions to this rule. Let us hear, therefore, Nguyen Le, Me'Shell Ndegeocello on bass and Terri Lyne Carrington on drums. Khann sing Aida.

Nguyen Le was born on 14 January 1959 in Paris. His parents are from Vietnam. The French jazz community and the Vietnamese minority, which is quite large in Paris, are linked to musical roots of this guitar. The first solo album released in 1990 - "Miracles," starring Marc Johnson (bass) and Peter Erskine (drums). Vietnamese musical inspiration folklore in his music can be heard at every step. Let us hear his own compositions from the "Bakida. Featuring tenor saxophone Chris Potter play.

New custom program with this release is a few words about the album, which travels on a program with me in the car. Yesterday it was the album Lee Morgan - "Candy." I remembered about him when I saw it on a shelf in a shop in the edition of Rudy Van Gelder in a completely niezpodziewanej price 24.99 zł. At this price everyone should buy it, who like a good jazz in the fifties and sixties. All times are endless recording sessions in the studio, Rudy Van Gelder. Arose when many prominent positions, and even more very good. "Candy" is certainly not the best album from Lee Morgan, but it is certainly worth exploring, especially for this price. In addition to playing the leader, Sonny Clark on piano, Doug Watkins on bass and Art Taylor on drums.
Our CD of the week is the latest album from guitarist - "Songs Of Freedom". This excellent album. Made with great gusto, with the participation of many special guests. These include, inter alia, Chris Speed, and which record the same label as Nguyen Le singer Youn Sun Nah. This product is a multicultural, thus escaping any genre classifications. Sam Nguyen Le is an extraordinary artist, guitarist, able to take technically efficient without much contriving and electronics to achieve a unique and recognizable sound. And this is not an easy art. The leader is not only a guitarist, but also highly innovative team leader, a visionary able to take try and fix musical paintings, which others can not. Let's listen to the blues Janis Joplin in the role of which will play Himiko Paganotti.

course, one can conclude that a complex production studio, electronic effects and pre-recorded sounds incorporated while working in the studio. Of course, much truth in this. Let us hear, therefore, as the trio Le Nguyen is on show. It will be a segment of video projection unit from the Montreux Festival in 2000, available on the disc label promotional Act!

Think back to our board this week - "Songs Of Freedom". Let's listen to the opening of the company's board composition of John Lennon and Paul McCartney - "Eleanor Rigby." The record is not easy to choose the most interesting record, because all sound surprisingly fresh and at the same time show how wide attention, and the musical knowledge of our hero.

Nguyen Le listen as a guest in one of the better lately projects Uri Caine ' a - "The Othello Syndrome." For the trumpet will play Ralph Messi, and the composition is rather loosely connected with the work of Giuseppe Verdi, like all the pretty exotic and unexpected, but sounding pretty fresh draft of the avant-garde pianist. Recorded between 2005 and 2008.

Another composition of the Arab vision of Jimi Hendrix - "Are You Experienced" from the album " Purple: Celebrating Jimi Hendrix ". The party is a vocal Curschellas Corin, and apart from Me'Shell Ndegeocello play leader and Terri Lyne Carrington.

Supplement, which is what we did not manage to fit in an hour broadcast:
"Black Dog" from Led Zeppelin's repertoire is a place where Le Nguyen could not forgive himself guitar madness. For this very abstract African vocal Dhafer Youssef. While it can be text in a language they do not recognize ... At the beginning of the preface, which resembles a Tibetan mantra. This is already Nguyen Le. The role of Robert Plant perform Dhafer Youssef, as Jimi Page's course Le Ngyuen.

And next week we'll curiosities nagraniowymi Cassandra Wilson. It will be another element umilający waiting for the most important events of this year's Warsaw Summer Jazz Days. The program will place the interest of its rich discography. However, we will try to avoid its catalog CD, looking for other, less obvious signs of musical compositions and Cassandra cooperation with these major and the bit less well known musicians. Will przebojowo and somewhat unexpectedly, and tickets to her concert on June 22, at which it occurs Avishai Cohen can buy right now. I'll be there for sure.
