Taeko Fukao - One Love http://www.songbirdtaeko.com and Flat Nine Records present Taeko Fukao's "One Love." A native of Japan, Taeko came to New York City in 1998 with dreams of expanding her singing career and took a strong liking to Jazz. Taeko studied with Juanita Fleming, a jazz & gospel singer who was a vocalist with the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Big Band, and Marion Cowings who is the first disciple of Jon Hendricks. The intense jazz study, coupled with her naturally appealing clear voice and unique musical ideas, have earned her performances in some of New York City's best known jazz clubs, including Blue Note, Ashford & Simpson's Sugar Bar, Lenox Lounge, and Zinc Bar. Her musical talent is also bought to Japan every spring and fall. "Definitely one heck of a jazz singer, Taeko Fukao's graceful approach to the music leaves quite an impression on "One Love." Armed with a beautiful voice and range, this is one lady of jazz who knows how to carry a tune and make it come alive." - Edward Blanco / www.ejazznews.com Tags: Ella Fitzgerald Anita Baker Taeko Fukao One Love Jazz Vocal Japan Songbird Scatting |

Hip Jive Crazy Who is the "Fisherman?" The year: 1950 The place: San Francisco The movie: DOA, a film noir classic. The director: Rupolph Mate This is the scene where Edmond O'Brien gets randomly poisoned by a mysterious stranger at the bar. The band is unidentified. A low budget independent production. Most films of this era utilized actors "pretending" to play music. No microphones present and a very noisy crowd, so it's unlikely the music is "live." Can anyone identify the tenor player, known here as "The Fisherman?" The trumpeter? The pianist? The drummer? But what's really interesting here is how this is shot and edited. It presents the music in an exciting way, with the audience going "wild," complete with "hip" talk. Tags: jazz saxophone san francisco doa edmond o'brien film noir |

Joe Lovano Nonet featuring Dennis Irwin, Bass Dennis Irwin was one-of-a-kind, a man who profoundly touched everyone who crossed his path. "Dennis left town on March 10, 2008," Bret explains, "the day of a Jazz at Lincoln Center benefit organized by his friends Joe Lovano and John Scofield. It was the third benefit for Dennis, following similar events at Small's, and the Village Vanguard. When the Jazz community learned of his life threatening illness, there was an immediate response, an unprecedented burst of love and support, both financial and spiritual. He was the sort of person who inspired that. In addition to being a world class bassist, his essential goodness, his easygoing nature, and laid back sense of humor made him a welcome presence in every situation. He will be missed, but never forgotten."
