JOHNNY "V" VERNAZZA	LIONS AND THIEVES	CD: $10.00 (US) - NEW ($9.00 with *discount)	AT THE BEACH RECORDS	2013
blues: Best known for his work with the Elvin Bishop Band in the 1970's, including the 1976 #4 hit, "Fooled Around and Fell in Love," Vernazza has played guitar with some of the biggest names in music, from Van Morrison to the Grateful Dead. Vernazza has spent decades on stages big and small around the world, honing his craft and this album is the culmination of that experience. Now more than a decade in to his solo career, his new album, Lions and Thieves, delivers on the promise of a lifetime in music.Ably backed by bassist Jim Reeves, drummer Brian Cantrell and keyboardist Mark Bentley, the album's 14 tracks cover a lot of ground. Indeed, Vernazza may be considered to be one of the finest blues and slide guitar players going today,but his sound is expansive. As detailed his blues varies, from the sweet soul edge of "Open The Door" to high octane rocker "Jungle," the latter a sure fire single surely destined to be much covered in the future.While the albums core group are all seasoned veterans, Vernazza also called in a few friends to help in the albums creation, with Elvin Bishop, Charlie Daniels and Albert Lee all contributing to Lions and Thieves.Long time fans will love every second of Lions and Thieves, but anyone who enjoys great blues and rock will need a copy of this album in their collection

JOE SULLIVAN	PIANIST EXTRAORDINAIRE	CD: $16.25 (US) - NEW ($14.62 with *discount)	VINTAGE MUSIC	2009
BIG BAND, SWING, TRAD JAZZ : [1940-1955/1963] By October 1939, Joe Sullivan was leading his own band, at Cafe Society, in New York. Sometime after April 1940, he played at Nick's and began a residency at the Famous Door, which lasted until June 1941. Soon afterward, he returned to Cafe Society with a trio and remained there, until 1942. During this same period, he made numerous recordings with his own bands. He also participated in Eddie Condon's "Town Hall" broadcasts and played on several of Condon's Commodore sessions. In the spring of 1943, Sullivan was back in Los Angeles, where he led a band at the Swanee Inn. In 1945, he was featured in a duo with Meade Lux Lewis, at Chicago's Sherman Hotel. In 1951, Joe Sullivan performed on a "Voices of America" broadcast and began touring with Louis Armstrong and His All Stars. In 1952, he participated in several "Doctor Jazz" broadcasts over WMGM.

VARIOUS ARTISTS	BAND THEME SONGS RARE AND FAMOUS	CD: $14.25 (US) - NEW ($12.83 with *discount)	VINTAGE MUSIC	2008
BIG BAND, SWING, TRAD JAZZ : [1929-1947] Although it is necessary in any collection of theme songs to include those tunes that immediately come to mind such as Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, etc. we have attempted to include many bands that the casual listener may not recall. Of course the serious collectors of this type of music will know most of these bands. Although, even the serious collector might find the Johnny McGee theme with his excellent trumpet work new to them. Regarding Johnny McGee & His Orchestra, he made thirty two recordings for the Varsity label between February and June of 1940 yet, the Rust discography of American Dance Bands does not mention the band. Lords Discography does show two tune which are probably considered the bands' jazz sides. There is no question this was a quality band. While the Larry Clinton theme Dipsy Doodle, is well known, it is interesting to know that he never recorded the tune, and the broadcast version included here with vocal by Bea Wain, is the only time she ever sang this tune. Ben Pollack's theme, Song of the Islands, heard here, with the superb clarinet solo by Irving Fazola, is actually the recording that first brought the name of Fazola to prominence. Prior to that he was known almost exclusively in the New Orleans area. If you give a close listen the superb style of Fazola, it is easy to hear why he was the major influence on the musician Pete Fountain. One can almost hear Fazola on some of Fountain's popular recordings. Much has been said and written about how Benny Goodman as a leader in breaking down racial barriers in the music business and all of these are legitimate, but we should not forget other white band leaders who even before Goodman were also making giant strides to break the racial barriers. For example, give a listen to the Leo Reichman band theme. This white band chose a superb black trumpet player by the name of Bubber Miley who was feature soloist on many of the bands best recordings. Willie Bryant was not a musician although as a boy attempted to learn the trumpet. He was however, an accomplished dancer and vocalist in addition to being intelligent, witty and debonair. Although not a musician, he formed a band in 1934 for an engagement at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem. On his theme heard here, listen for the Teddy Wilson piano and Cozy Cole choke that cymbal.(Artists: a- Van Alexander; b- Don Bestor; c- Will Bradley; d- Willie Bryant' e- Billy Butterfield; f- Bob Chester; g- Larry Clinton; h- Jack Denny; i- Benny Goodman; j- Jerry Gray; k- Mal Hallett; l- Woody Herman; m- Ina Ray Hutton Melodears; n- Isham Jonesl o- Dick Jurgens; p- Hal Kemp; q- Andy Kirk; r- Bert Lown; s- Johnny McGee; t- Glenn Miller; u- Russ Morgan; v- Ben Pollack; w- Joe Reichman; x- Leo Reichman; y- Artie Shaw; z- Chick Webb)

The group left New York to accompany Ethel Waters under the leadership of George Scott. They returned to New York sometime in 1928 with the name The Missourians and vocalist Lockwood Lewis and became the house band at the Savoy. These recordings span from 1925 until a month before the Missourians hired a new vocalist, Cab Calloway who renamed the group, "Cab Calloway And His Orchestra" and became the house band at the Cotton Club when Ellington left for Hollywood.

The first of a trilogy, this (perhaps justifiably) paranoia-fueled near-future fantasy/thriller, derived from the latest political and technological trends, serves as the debut of an author who lives "off the grid" and will speak to the public only through e-mail or a voice scrambler and satellite phone. The story opens by introducing Maya, a Harlequin: a warrior trained from childhood to protect the enlightened beings known as Travelers from the Tabula. The Tabula are the secret masters of the Vast Machine, the intricate web of surveillance and bureaucracy that controls the world population. The psychic abilities of and the social movements instigated by Travelers tend to disrupt that absolute, rigid control. Today, the Travelers and their guardians verge on extinction. Maia herself has rejected her heritage for the past three years, living a regular life and attempting to block out the memories of her last, disastrous Harlequin assignment. But now Maia's wheelchair-bound father, Thorn, has forced his daughter back into the fold, directing her to protect two newly emerged Travelers under threat from the massive, menacing resources of the Tabula.
