Wild Man Blues (1997)
$15.00Wild Man Blues is a 1998 documentary film directed by Barbara Kopple, about the musical avocation of actor/director/comic Woody Allen. The film takes its name from a jazz composition sometimes attributed to Jelly Roll Morton and sometimes to Louis Armstrong and recorded by both (among others). Allen’s love of early 20th century New Orleans music is depicted through his 1996 tour of Europe with his New Orleans Jazz Band. Allen has played clarinet with this band for over 25 years. Although Allen’s European tour is the film’s primary focus, it was also notable as the first major public showcase for Allen’s relationship with Soon-Yi Previn.

Sade Live (1994)
$15.00This impressive record of Sade’s 1994 live peformances reminds us of just how much her distinctive sound combines languorously emotional pop with lightweight but musically fulfilling cocktail jazz. As fine as the voice is, we can never forget that Sade’s backing band are sidemen rather than mere accompanists, and in several of the 18 numbers here we get solos of real virtuosity. The selection of songs includes many of Sade’s hits–“Cherry Pie,” “Smooth Operator,” “Your Love Is King”–and some less well-known songs from the albums, such as “Red Eye” and “Jezebel.” –Roz Kaveney, Amazon.co.uk
