Further Details Title: Ghosts of the Sun Condition: New Format: CD EAN: 0016728124423 Genre: Jazz Release Date: 2011 Description: The best method to amass critical attention is to stand apart from the crowd. Occasionally, an artist comes along who can diverge from the expected and catch the imagination of listeners while doing what comes instinctively. Saxophonist/composer Bill McHenry has developed his own unique sound and approach to the jazz tradition that has set him apart from his peers. The breadth of McHenry s art is vast and varied. His lush tenor saxophone tone echoes the past masters like Coleman Hawkins while his advanced technique enables him to reach the furthest plains of contemporary experimentation. His abilities have made it possible for McHenry to perform alongside many legends and contemporary greats, including Charlie Haden, Paul Motian, John McNeil, Andrew Cyrille and Guillermo Klein. McHenry s ensemble leadership and compositional skills are well known amongst his associates but deserve further praise. He shows his faculty on his latest Sunnyside CD, Ghosts of the Sun (Nov. 22, 2011). Utilizing an all-star ensemble of a handful of his favorite collaborators, McHenry presents a diverse, exemplary program of original compositions that illustrate his tunefulness and unique abstraction. The group, featuring drummer Paul Motian, bassist Reid Anderson and guitarist Ben Monder, navigate the leader s freely structured rhapsodies with amazing results. The tunes strike a balance between impressionism, modernism and folk-like tunefulness. Ms. Polley slinks hazily under the gauze of Monder s guitar and McHenry s resonant sax. La Fuerza follows with an ardent melodic statement, which is furthered on Anti Heroes, a longer composition with poignant solos and a jolting backbeat from Anderson and Motian. Melancholy permeates over the quietly introspective Ghosts of the Sun. The stark Little One weaves a flowing singsong melody that builds throughout the piece with augmentations from the ensemble No Of Discs: 1 Artist: Bill Mchenry Record Label: Naive Release Year: 2011 Missing Information?

I've ordered from Rarewaves here in the US and the UK multiple times, and continue to do so. They always seem to have something I can't find anywhere else at all or for a reasonable price. When I purchase used items, they are as described, if not a grade better. Aways a quick turnaround after ordering, every item arrives promptly, professionally packaged. Many orders have free shipping, even for solitary item orders. I never needed a reason to communicate, as I've had no cause. Recommended.
Received item as described and packaged well. Listing indicated shipping was free. Ordered on the 7th but by the 14th noticed it hadn’t been shipped yet. Seller responded quickly saying that during the purchase process that it said it would not be shipped until the 22nd because they use a fulfillment house. I don’t recall seeing anything about delayed shipping during the process or in the listing. While I appreciate the prompt response to my inquiry, other buyers should be aware of delays.
The book was brand still plastic wrapped. Looks exactly like the picture for a reasonable price including shipping. In perfect condition. Shipping was slow and I was worried that I was scammed again. Seller did respond to my message after a day and explained the item would be shipped within a week. The item shipping and tracking was updated by the date they stated. Took about 2 weeks to receive item. I’m usually impressed when item is shipped and received within a week.
