liquid spirit marks gregory porters blue note records debut, which arrives on the heels of two critically acclaimed indie label albums that quickly propelled porter to the upper echelon of contemporary male jazz singers and earned him two grammy nominations. don was, president of blue note, encouraged porter to stay true to his artistic vision.

the rat pack – wer kennt sie nicht? diese rasselbande hollywoods, vor denen ab den 50ern weder whiskey noch weiber sicher war? frank sinatra, dean martin, sammy davis jr. waren die hauptakteure des rat packs. sie spielten in filmen zusammen – und sie sangen hits wie what kind of fool i am, i get a kick out of you, i’ve got you under my skin, memories are made of this, love and marriage und viele mehr. die größten hits des rat packs jetzt auf vinyl!
recorded in new york’s avatar studios in may 2017 and produced by manfred eicher, blue maqams brings tunisian oud master anouar brahem together with three brilliant improvisers. for anouar brahem and dave holland the album marks a reunion: they first collaborated 20 years ago on the very widely-acclaimed thimar album. brahem meets jack dejohnette for the first time here, but holland and dejohnette have been frequent musical partners over the last half-century beginning with ground-breaking work with miles davis – their collaborations are legendary. british pianist django bates also rises superbly to the challenge of brahem’s compositions. and anouar in turn is inspired to some of his most outgoing playing. blue maqams is a highlight of ecm’s autumn season.
