Coleman Hawkins - Good Old Broadway Good Old Broadway JVC XRCD | Performance 8.5 | Sound 8.5 | What is there to say about this album that you can't glean from its cover. It's The Hawk. Remastered. Do you really need any more impetus to purchase? It features Hawkins on tenor sax as always, Tommy Flanagan on piano, Major Holly, Jr. on bass, and Eddie Locke on drums. It also features a softly moving 'A Fellow Needs A Girl' and a version of 'Smoke Gets In Your Eyes' that is so lonely you want to buy it a drink.

Steve Miller Band - Greatest Hits 1974 - 78 Greatest Hits 1974-78, DCC Records 1997 Performance 7.5 Sound 7.5 With perhaps the exception of the recently deceased Greatful Dead, Aerosmith and The Rolling Stones, there are few bands who appeal equally to two entire generations more than The Steve Miller Band. Every summer Steve Miller sells out "the sheds" aka: the 5,000 seat outdoor arenas found in every city in the country. High school and college students mingle with Baby Boomers to make up one of rock and roll's most diverse audiences. And all the better for Steve Miller who keeps selling records like no tomorrow.

Jimi Hendrix - South Saturn Delta South Saturn Delta MCA Records | Performance 8.5 | Sound 7.5 | Jimi never got the chance to release his fourth album, a double record, before he departed on that fateful day way back in September of 1970. For over 20 years the music of Jimi Hendrix has been fought over by his record companies and his father, Al Hendrix. Finally, Al Hendrix has won the rights to Jimi music and has re-released the three original records along with increasing amounts of ancillary records like this effort entitled South Saturn Delta.

UMA - Fare Well UMA, Fare Well, Refuge/MCA Records Performance 5 Sound 6 Have you ever heard of the radio format 'Hot AC?' You may have not, but chances are there is at least one of these stations in your town. Think of artists like Natalie Merchant, Deep Blue Something, Sheryl Crow, etc. At any rate, as this format grabs listeners daily there is a greater push to find artists who can feed this need. This is where UMA is targeted to go. Here's the problem--we have enough bands that want to sound like REM. They're everywhere.

Portishead - Portishead Portishead, GO! Beat/London Recordings Performance 8 Sound 8 Say what you want about rap and hip-hop but one thing is undeniable, they've influenced virtually every music genre out today. Hanson, a disgusting little pop band, has scratching in the background of a number one hit. Branford Marsalis, respected jazz will-be hall-of-famer, has formed Buckshot LeFonque, a group that fuses jazz and hip-hop. And what about trip-hop? It's a genre.
