Five on five ultimately comes alive

Article Abstract:

Jazz musicians Nicholas Payton, George Benson, Ray Brown, Chick Corea and Wayne Shorter have each compiled a CD of music by another jazz musician from the catalogue of Verve Records. Payton chose Clifford Brown, while Benson chose Wes Montgomery, Brown chose Oscar Peterson, Corea chose Bud Powell and Shorter chose Lester Young. This approach gives a clear insight into how famous jazz musicians have influenced the younger generation of jazz performers. George Benson selected some of Wes Montgomery's most attractive music from the mid-1960s, while Nicholas Payton found it very difficult to select songs from Clifford Brown's repertoire.

Still massive after all these years

Article Abstract:

Reggae singer and songwriter Horace Andy has no regrets about having been associated with Studio One, even though he has received very little in royalty payments for his recordings. He believes that working with Studio One gave him valuable experience in areas such as singing harmony. He believes that Studio One's continued strength in the early 1970s can be attributed to the fact that owner Clement Dodd accepted that Rastafarians were the best singers and writers.
