- Genre: Jazz
- Description: Mr Bongo proudly presents the debut album from Tasmania-born, Melbourne-based, Finn Rees. Gliding across a swirling palette of saturated hues, Dawn Is A Melody feels vintage yet vibrant, new but familiar at the same time. A spiritual, deep and textured jazz record, tipping it's hat to greats from the past, capturing memories and reformulating them into new ideas with the help of some of Melbourne's finest talent.Expert keys player for the likes of 30/70 and Elle Shimada, alongside one-half of Close Counters, this debut LP was Finn's conscious departure from the realm of groove-based jazz. Instead, Dawn Is A Melody places the piano and arrangements centre stage, giving Finn and his fellow Melbourne crew freedom to explore the spaces in between, new emotions and alternate soundscapes.In Finn's own words InchMy intention with Dawn Is A Melody was to create a world; a microcosm of colour. Something rich and beautiful that allowed the melodies and compositions to reach their full potential. It was driven by hope, curiosity and the search for beauty and reassurance in this ever-changing world. The emotion behind the music is really about the journey of life, growing up and changing, as well as my relationship with Tasmania's natural landscapes where I grew up, a part of the world that is incredibly unique and beautiful.InchThe album arcs between opening, middle and end. Beginning with the optimism of 'Looking Up' and 'Lagoon', the former a celestial, string and harp marbled slice of positivity, the latter a spiritual journey of exuberance and hope, Finn's fingers dancing across the '70s Yamaha grand piano. From there the songs blossom outwards with the cinematic soulful journey of 'It's Behind Me Now' and Brazilian-inspired 'Expansion', as the divine 'Crossing' signals a transition to a new realm. The energy is transformed from the rich cosmic textures to a more intimate a

![Legacy Collection [Limited Edition] [7 180 Gram Vinyl/7 CD] [Poster] [LP]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/e73716ed-98aa-4397-ab70-05b9d43b4b0a.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Limited 180 gram vinyl LP pressing. Smokin' at the Half Note is the second collaboration jazz album recorded by Wes Montgomery and the Wynton Kelly Trio and released in 1965. It was recorded live in late June 1965 at the Half Note Club in New York City, and September 22, 1965 at Van Gelder Studios, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. The album combines guitarist Montgomery with the Miles Davis rhythm section from 1959-1963 of Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers, and Jimmy Cobb. The album's versions of InchUnit 7Inch and InchFour on SixInch have helped to establish these songs as jazz standards, and remain important references for their interpretation. This is also the second live album by Wes Montgomery. Album Tracks 1. No Blues 2. If You Could See Me Now 1. Unit 7 2. Four on Six 3. What's New?
Limited vinyl LP pressing of this classic 1964 album. One of the biggest-selling jazz albums of all time, not to mention bossa nova's finest moment, Getz/Gilberto trumped jazz samba by bringing two of bossa nova's greatest innovators - guitarist/singer João Gilberto and composer/pianist Antonio Carlos Jobim - to New York to record with Stan Getz. The results were magic. It's helped fuel the bossa nova craze in the United States and internationally, becoming the first Grammy Award-winning album from non-American artists. It brought together Stan Getz, who had already performed the genre on his LP Jazz Samba, João Gilberto (one of the creators of the style), and Jobim, a celebrated Brazilian composer (and also one of the main creators of the genre), who wrote most of the songs in the album. It became one of the best-selling jazz albums of all time, and turned Astrud Gilberto, who sang on the tracks InchThe Girl from IpanemaInch and InchCorcovadoInch, into an internationally celebrated musician. Album Tracks 1. The Girl from Ipanema 2. Doralice 3. Para Machuchar Meu Coracao 4. Desafinado 5. Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars) 6. S Dano Samba 7. O Grande Amor 8. Vivo Sohando
