Nat King Cole: The Hits | Anthony Strong: And Then We Kiss The concept of a heavy pick-up arm requiring a steel needle that had to be replaced after less than a dozen playings will be almost unimaginable to younger readers, and yet that is how their grandparents accessed, for example, the first two tracks on this compilation, Unforgettable and Mona Lisa, released in 1951 and 1949 respectively on shellac 78s. Cole was only one of several male recording stars, including Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra,

Read excerpt
Documentary on Dave Brubeck's son deals with his early and current life and closely follows his life in South Africa as an academic, performer and activist Older readers will need no reminding of the legendary status enjoyed by the late Dave Brubeck, but given that it is now more than half a century since he was at his peak both as pianist and as leader of the Dave Brubeck quartet, there may well a whole younger generation of Jazz Journal readers to whom he is only a name, if that.

So far, in a lifetime punctuated by live gigs and literally thousands of hours of vinyl an

Natalie Aldema: Softly In The Blue | Ari & Cecil Alexander: Kaleidoscope This is yet one more tiny atoll of good taste in the ocean of dross that is the “modern” popular musical landscape. I doubt seriously whether Ms Adema is much more than 30 years old and yet, against the run of play, she has contrived to record an album whose 10 songs span the 32 years from 1928 to 1960, or, to put it another way, an album in which the newest song is some 66 years old, whilst the oldest is two years shy of a
