About this product
The new recording from the Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic series captures a moment rich in both history and renewal, marking the series fiftieth concert while paying tribute to Siggi Lochs early triumph as a producer with George Gruntzs pioneering Jazz Meets Baroque in 1964. Six decades later, pianist Bernd Lhotzky revisits and reimagines this groundbreaking dialogue between eras, drawing a compelling parallel between Esperantos vision of universal communication and the shared expressive language of baroque music and jazz. The two traditions meet not as contrasts but as kindred forms jazz infuses baroque with rhythmic vitality and improvisational freedom, while baroque lends jazz it's structural depth and ornate richness. The stage opens up to reveal a German-French ensemble two wind players of French origin and the three members of a German rhythm section, all of them happy to be united through music. Album Tracks 1.

Legendary drummer Bernard Purdie returns with his first new album in six years-and his first as an octogenarian. This ambitious all-vocal album showcases Purdie's rich and versatile grooves, spanning R&B, jazz, AOR, and bossa nova, distilling the essence of his sophisticated rhythm. Featuring an all-star lineup including Bill Champlin, Robben Ford, Chuck Rainey, and Christian McBride, this album is a masterclass in groove-driven musicianship. With his signature deep and soulful drumming, Purdie delivers an unparalleled rhythmic experience that guarantees pure bliss. This is the ultimate essence of drum accompaniment-an extraordinary new album from the one and only Bernard Purdie, proving that age is just a number. Album Tracks 1. Ain't You No Shame (Feat. Rob Paparozzi & Vaneese Thomas) 2. I Got the Blues (Feat. Roy Bennet, Robben Ford & Chuck Rainey) 3. Sea and You and Me (Feat. Stephane San Juan & Emanuelle Araujo) 4. Testify (Feat. Gene McCormick, Paul Shaffer & Robben Ford) 5. Stay (Feat. Bill Champlin & Paul Nowinski) 6. Ain't I the Fool (Feat. Jack Hoban) 7. Chance for Love (Feat. John Korba & Christian McBride) 8.

When Bernard Purdie is not helping some big star the likes of Aretha Franklin, Isaac Hayes, Donny Hathaway and B.B. King to create a fantastic studio sound, the drummer pursues his own projects such as InchSoul to JazzInch, two albums he recorded in 1996 and 1997. Released on CD back then (and now out of print), the two recordings have a cult factor today and sound as fresh as they did back then. Now both albums are released together for the first time as a 3-LP Set. These recordings are peppered with lots of prominent star guests from jazz and soul, from Eddie Harris, Michael Brecker and Nils Landgren to Hank Crawford, Stanley Turrentine and Cornell Dupree.Purdie's InchSoul to JazzInch project takes two different approaches The first part focuses on the renowned WDR Big Band led by Gil Goldstein. Soul classics such as Stevie Wonder's InchSuperstitionInch, InchWhen a Man Loves a WomanInch, Eddie Harris' InchFreedom Jazz DanceInch and Lee Morgan's famous groove tune InchSidewinderInch are interpreted in large-scale sound. One discovery of these recordings amidst all the renowned guest soloists is the New York-born singer Martin Moss.The great success of this first album released under InchSoul to JazzInch led to InchSoul to Jazz IIInch, a more intimate record, but one that picks up where the first recording left off by exploring similar themes. Again Purdie has called together a notable band of kindred spirits, including saxophonists Hank Crawford (B.B. King, Ike & Tina Turner, Ray Charles), Stanley Turrentine (Jimmy Smith, Shirley Scott) and Vincent Herring, as well as guitarist Cornell Dupree (King Curtis) to pianists Benny Green and Junior Mance.Bernard Purdie's InchSoul to JazzInch is a timeless classic and a blueprint of the soul-jazz genre in all it's facets. Above all, it is a portrait of one of the most influential and best drummers in the world, who made jazz
