Andy Narell |

| Format: |
Compact Disc |
| Description: |
With Andy Narell—who’s been playing calypso music from Trinidad since he was barely tall enough to reach the pan—it’s always been about expanding the role of the steelpan in jazz. On his new release, University of Calypso, Narell joins forces with calypso legend Relator to explore the role of jazz in vintage calypso. Together, they perform 15 classic compositions by Lord Kitchener, Lord Melody, Mighty Terror, Roaring Lion, Spider, and Relator, supported by a group of world-class Latin-jazz cats who can swing the calypso and blow le jazz hot. It’s been over 50 years since a major calypsonian went into the studio with a bunch of jazz players. This CD is cause for serious celebration!

Tatoom |
|
| Artist: |
Andy Narell |
|
| Format: |
Compact Disc |
| Description: |
New from Andy Narell - "Tatoom - Music for Steel Orchestra" w/special guests Mike Stern - guitar, David Sanchez - tenor sax, and Luis Conte - congas, percussion. Mark Walker and Jean Philippe Fanfant - drums.
“Given the difficulty of conceiving and executing the vision behind Tatoom, only Narell’s perfectionism could have made it a reality—creating the sound of an entire steel pan orchestra recording in a single studio, when in actuality Narell recorded in a single instrument at a time in multiple locations. The result is a gem.”
JazzReview.com
“Andy Narell has made so many cool albums of jazzy steel pan (aka steel drum) music through the years he is practically a genre unto himself at this point. A musician of tremendous skill and consummate good taste, Narell takes the pans places they’ve never been before, so far beyond the limited palette of calypso it barely seems like the same instrument.”
