Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Nominated for the Mercury Prize, (which it deserved to win--but hey, that's competitions for you) Modern Day Jazz Stories is the album that first saw Courtney Pine incorporate sampling into his music, including DJ Pogo as part of his small group. Linking up with Giles Peterson's Talkin Loud label, the resulting sparks burned bebop into hip-hop, saxophone solos with drum & bass beats. It is still, however, very much a jazz album, but one like all the best jazz before it which draws in influences from elsewhere in the music world. Standout tracks include the beautiful "The 37th Chamber" (the title of which is bizarrely taken from a kung fu film) and "I've Known Rivers". The latter, released as a single, and a minor hit for Pine, features the husky vocals of Cassandra Wilson, who is also to be heard on a wonderful cover of Billie Holiday's "Don't Explain". Modern Day Jazz Stories: it does exactly what it says on the cover. --Phil Brett
