More InfoAdd to Cart

The blistering fretwork on the opening track of the group’s third CD, It’s About That Time, pays explicit homage to one of their six-string heroes – just not the one you might think.


Tia Fuller

Decisive Steps

Release: March 16th, 2010

More InfoAdd to Cart

Swing is the musical manifestation of forward motion. To achieve one’s goals, one must take giant steps. Today’s modern musicians at the change of the 21st century are moving miles ahead, advancing the jazz continuum, while remaining open and engaged in other musical inventions and dimensions. The astonishingly gifted, Colorado-born, alto / soprano saxophonist / flautist Tia Fuller is such an artist.

Kenny Rankin

The Kenny Rankin Album

$9.98

Release: February 16th, 2010

More InfoAdd to Cart

Enlisting the arranging talents of Don Costa, Rankin created a classic lush, romantic album: "Here's That Rainy Day," "When Sunny Gets Blue," "On and On," "Groovin" and his moody, heartfelt "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."Of all the R&B, rock, and pop artists to work with orchestras interpreting the great American songbook, few have matched the originality and fine results of this release.


Kenny Rankin

Inside

$9.98

Release: February 16th, 2010

More InfoAdd to Cart

Perhaps his best album, Inside represents the peak of all the different skills Rankin brings to his music. "She's a Lady," "Creepin'," "Up From the Skies," "Lost up in Loving You" and "Sunday Kind of Love" show his ease with rock, pop and R&B sounds. This is a near perfect album and as good as '70s singer/songwriter music gets.

Kenny Rankin

Silver Morning

$9.98

Release: February 16th, 2010

More InfoAdd to Cart

Silver Morning ranks as one of the best and most representative albums of that time. Rankin does a fine job covering Gordon Lightfoot ("Pussywillows, Cat Tails"), but he really shines on his reworkings of the Beatles' songbook. "Blackbird," "Penny Lane," show him to be one of the best interpreters of the Beatles' music. Moreover, in lending the songs his distinctive sound, they transcend being mere cover versions. This is easily one of his best albums.


Kenny Rankin

Like A Seed

$9.98

Release: February 16th, 2010

More InfoAdd to Cart

His reworking of "Peaceful" brought the song, and ultimately Rankin, a wider audience. The album eschews some of the preciousness of previous efforts and has a more universal appeal. Songs like the title cut and "Stringman" spotlight Rankin's continued growth as a songwriter.

Kenny Rankin

Family

$9.98

Release: February 16th, 2010

More InfoAdd to Cart

Rankin's second release follows in the same musical direction as his debut. Again, there are fine covers of singer/songwriters of the late '60s, including reworkings of music from Gordon Lightfoot, Steve Stills, and Donovan. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," gives birth to Rankin's ability to make Beatles songs all his own.
