Jean-Luc Fillon, ECHOES OF ELLINGTON

Jean-Luc Fillon -][- ECHOES OF ELLINGTON– [Cristal Records, 2012]

Jean-Luc Fillon is one of the rare French musicians with such an original path: bass player, oboist, fond of English horn, he also leads a classical and jazz musician career. Appreciated leader (with Patrice Caratini, Antoine Hervé, Glenn Ferris and Paolo Fresu), he shows real talents of melodist with his favourite instrument, the oboe. Talents that his last two albums Oboa and Flea Market perfectly illustrate. Echoes of Ellington is the result of an exceptional collaboration around original arrangements of the great Duke’s music realized by Jean-Luc Fillon. With his fellow traveller, João Paulo, on the piano, Jean-Luc Fillon marries the english horn lyricism with the warm tone of Glenn Ferris’ trombone. A good rhythm section supports this trio with the drummer Tony Rabeson and the bass player Jean-Jacques Avenel, both important actors of the jazz scene (with Henri Texier, Eddy Louis, Michel Portal for the first one, with Steve Lacy, Mal Waldron, Archie Shepp or David Murray for the latter). A great success, both refreshing and captivating.

Manu Dibango -][- JOUE SIDNEY BECHET – [Cristal Records, 2012]

A symbol of world music since he travelled all around the world, as well for his music as for his humanitarian actions, Manu Dibango represents the emergence of world music. He likes Gospel which reminds him his childhood and which is the ambassador of the Acid-jazz birth. Lately, his musical nomadism brought him to cooperate with classical orchestras such as the , and more recently with the Orchestra of Paris. 50 years after Manu Dibango started playing music, he comes to his first love of jazz, releasing a tribute album to Sidney Bechet, native to New Orleans bayou.

A tribute to Cousin Sidney’s forgotten music, which is revisited by Manu Dibango in collaboration with vibraphonist Dany Doriz. The music is characterized by tones coming from original instruments, and by interpretations which are full of humor and poetry: from “Petite Fleur” to “Oignons,” a real antidepressant administered by high-level musicians… what bliss!

Charlie Hunter and Scott Amendola, Not Getting Behind is The New Getting Ahead

Not Getting Behind Is The New Getting Ahead, guitarist Charlie Hunter’s new duo recording with drummer Scott Amendola, is an album that’s easy to get behind. A complete departure from last year’s Public Domain —a true solo album — and the previous year’s Gentlemen, I Neglected to Inform You You Will Not Be Getting Paid — which incorporated two trombones and trumpet into Hunter’s instrumental arsenal — Not Getting Behind Is The New Getting Ahead is Hunter’s first recording of original compositions in three years.

Marc Antoine -][- GUITAR DESTINY –Mp3– [Frazzy Frog Music, 2012] –

Guitarist Marc Antoine returns to true form with Guitar Destiny, an instrumental journey illustrating Marc’s pursuit of his long and illustrious career. The album’s ten all-new tracks have a strong connection to Marc. He recalls always stopping to watch the trains go in and out of the station, when crossing an old bridge that was close to his old home when he was growing up in Paris. Little did he know those train tracks would take him around the world in pursuit of an international and successful career. Marc’s magic touch ties it all up in this wonderful voyage through places and musical genres.

Great movies have great soundtracks… soundtracks, with no frills, but with great feeling and clear melodies being straight to the point. The album Mute N’ Muse from Sans Chichi would not only have the makings of a great soundtrack, it is already one!

It’s a wonderful soundtrack for all occasions. Even without the colorful pictures it has a lot to tell, and creates a unique way in its moods and emotions.
