Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Harry Belafonte - Live at the Greek Theatre (LP) (New (N))
(2-LP set) On a late summer evening in 1963, a show took place at the open-air Greek Theatre which had fans flocking to the Hollywood mountains. Those who were not lucky to get a ticket climbed the surrounding trees to see the Calypso man from a distance at least. Others were waiting, recording equipment at the ready, namely the sound engineers from RCA, and in the following year the eagerly anticipated album was released. Some of the songs, such as the giddy-paced ""Zombie Jamboree"", ""Look Over Yonder"" and the delightfully schmaltzy ""Try To Remember"", had only been released as studio recordings. The majority of the other numbers were brand new and were now heard for the very first time in the exciting live atmosphere, something which comes over authentically in this release. Here a whoop of laughter after a witty remark, there the sound of wooden boards being walked on and then absolute silence from the spellbound audience - you only get that with a live performance. For Belafonte fans this recording is certainly the crowning glory of an artistically fruitful phase from 1959 until 1963. Among the many good albums which appeared, this is surely one of the best. This Speakers Corner reissue LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Hayes Greenfield - Painting In Sound (LP) (New (N))
Painting In Sound, Hayes Greenfield's third Sunnyside release, expands the perception of what jazz-and binaural, spatial, immersive music-can be. An acclaimed jazz musician, composer, and electroacoustic artist, Greenfield draws from decades of traditional and improvisational mastery and sonic exploration to create a recording that is resonant and substantial. // Captured with Max/MSP and SPAT spatial and binaural software, the album positions the listener inside a fully three-dimensional sound field. Greenfield treats space as an equal voice, shaping air, distance, proximity, and motion with the same care he brings to melody, harmony, and rhythm. Using spatial placement and movement through the immersive field, lines arc and spiral, instruments and textures shimmer, orbit, recede, and tones approach, and dissolve. // Rooted in jazz's spontaneity and reaching beyond traditional form, the record extends the line between performance and environment. It is an expansive statement from an artist pushing jazz into new perceptual dimensions. UPC: 016728176019Label: SunnysideRelease Date: 9.25.26Format: Vinyl

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Henry Mancini - The Pink Panther (LP) (New (N))
Henry Mancini - The Pink Panther - Original score composed by Henry Mancini. Producer: Joe Reisman. Reissue producer: Rob Santos. Recorded at RCA Victor's Music Center Of The World, Hollywood, California. Originally released on RCA (2795). Includes reissue liner notes by Michael Hill. ?The film director Blake Edwards brought into existence what is probably the best opening sequence to his comic crime film when he commissioned a young enterprising company to produce an animated Pink Panther cartoon film. The creative team came up with the idea of giving the cold, glittering diamond the guise of a cool, pink panther, which leads a bungling detective on a merry dance to the slinky sound of the Panther theme. - Mancini would not be Mancini if he did not bathe the film location - the skiing resort Cortina d'Ampezzo -in highly varied musical colours and genres. His well-known love for dance music finds itself in the samba ("It Had Better Be Tonight"), the shuffle ("Champagne And Quail"), and the cha-cha ("Something For Sellers"). But also the ballad, sung by a muted trumpet and saxophone ("Royal Blue"), or the simple combination of keyboard and strings ("Piano And Strings") are all woven into the story. One of the most memorable and delightful sounds is that of the accordion, whose melodies evoke an atmosphere that is filled with the Bohème, Paris and the sound of the musette. This music is never gaudy, but subtle, just like a panther padding quietly along. And if your appetite is now whetted for more, there is an extra portion of Mancini to be found in "Breakfast At Tiffany's" (RCA LSP 2362). Recording: September 1963 at RCA Victor's Music Center of the World, Hollywood, by Jim Malloy Production: Joe Reisman Tracklist: The Pink Panther Theme It Had Better Be Tonight-Instrumental Royal Blue Champagne ; Quail The Village Inn The Tiber Twist It Had Better Be Tonight-Vocal Cortina The Lonely Princess Something for Sellers Piano and Strings Shades of Sennett UPC: 4260019713995Label: Speakers CornerRelease Date: 9.4.26Format: Vinyl

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Henry Threadgill / Vijay Iyer / Dafnis Prieto - Fifteen (LP) (New (N))
Fifteen, the first album from the collective trio of saxophonist and flutist Henry Threadgill, pianist Vijay Iyer, and drummer Dafnis Prieto, takes its name from the number of years the trio has been performing together—first at a series of benefits for the New York City club the Jazz Gallery, a club they have since played at periodically, and then around the US and internationally. It comprises three compositions by Threadgill and Iyer and two by Prieto. Threadgill, Iyer, and Prieto are three of the most celebrated composer-performers of our time. Their collective project, informally dubbed “The Trio,” began in 2012 when Rio Sakairi from the Jazz Gallery called upon these three acclaimed musicians to participate in a fundraiser. Despite their preexisting musical ties, they all felt a unique spark in the mysterious flow of this musical encounter. They have steadily developed the project over the ensuing years, each musician serving as a composer and creative soloist, bringing each of their distinct backgrounds and strong personalities into the group dynamic. Their shared composer orientation gives the ensemble a special, continually evolving quality. These artists are not only electrifying performers, but also visionary creators and thinkers. As Threadgill states, “each time we come together to perform, it seems brand new… We’ve got three composers here. Every time the music changes, it holds up a different world, because it’s coming from a different place—because of each one of us, [and] our different approaches to composition.” Tracklist: Trio Piece Last Night I Wanted a Map Where Coconuts Fall Gently Trapped Fire City Perfect Victims On the Way UPC: 075597892444Label: NonesuchRelease Date: 8.21.26Format: Vinyl

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Isaiah Collier - Joy (Blk) (Uk) (LP) (New (N))
"In a world currently defined by unrest, uncertainty, and cultural fracture, acclaimed saxophonist, composer, and bandleader Isaiah Collier returns with Joy, a 5-track EP that reframes one of humanity's most nuanced emotions both as a devotional grounding and political act. Collier's deeply personal compositions present joy as an act that isn't rooted in escapism or abstraction, but rather, as something hard-won rooted in lived experience, shaped by transformation, and sustained through connection. Throughout the album's five compositions, Collier positions joy as a guiding light during challenging times, an expression of challenging yourself to utilize your gifts, an affirmation of love and discovery, and as an affirmative source of reassurance. "We are in a paradoxical time, where so much is being revealed to us," Collier shares. "Everything feels political from every scope... our collective hearts feel the heaviness in the air. Yet I say to you all-don't despair. For right now, the most political thing we can do is share joy." That ethos is made clear in the opening title track and lead single "Joy." A pulsing rhythmic motif anchors the melody with a sense of both searching and certainty. Collier conceived the piece around 3 years ago reflecting on a time where many people in his life were experiencing loss of family and friends and experiencing profound life transitions. "Everything just felt like it was falling apart with no aim in sight," he reflects. "Yet, there is a light at the end of it all." As he played the chords with a sense of urgency, he could feel the vibration of yellow in the piece. That initial triplet motif serves as the guiding light on the piano and the only word Collier could hear was Joy. In addition to Collier at the helm singing and playing piano and tenor sax on the track, it features an expansive 11-piece ensemble with a full horn and string section allowing Collier's propensity for composition and arrangement to shine with an eclectic sonic palette. "Landscape of Dreams" finds Collier serendipitously leaning into utilizing his gifts as a multi-instrumentalist. While he had a sketch of the piece going into the studio, a traffic delay caused musicians to be late arriving at the studio. Never one to waste time in the studio environment, Collier stepped into new creative territory and took up the challenge of executing playing all instruments himself as an act of trust and experimentation. "I've never done this before, and so it was a leap of faith for me," he asserts. "I always dream of doing stuff like this, and being part of the small percentage of people who can do it like Prince, Steve Lacy, Frank Zappa, and Stevie Wonder. The end result finds Collier immersed in a hypnotic soundscape playing layered flutes, drums, Metatron, Wurlitzer, and auxiliary percussion. Another layer of joy is revealed in "Where I'm Loved" that serves as a love letter and leaning into the process of stepping into the willingness to explore life and love with a partner. On the intimate meditation of vulnerability and connection, Collier's vocal prowess is on full display, exerting effortless falsetto reminiscent of D'Angelo over soulful Wurlitzer and guitar as he crosses over into more R&B-inspired realms. "I believe everyone deserves this feeling or to honor the memories of it. Furthermore, I believe you should also go where you're celebrated and not tolerated." "When the Dust Settles" captures the electricity of live collaboration and Collier further steps out of being confined to any specific genre. He had just gotten a microKORG keyboard from co-producer Sonny Daze and was exploring the vast array of sounds on the instrument. Collier plays synth bass on the microKORG joined by the electrifying improvisation of Cole Runge on guitar and the combustible rhythm of his brother Jeremiah Collier on drums with additional post-production work from Sonny Daze.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: James Taylor - Truth (LP) (New (N))
Volume 3 of the Jazz Sessions brings original Acid Jazz star James Taylor into the spotlight as he celebrates the 40th anniversary of his solo career. Formerly a member of The Prisoners, who split in 1986, Taylor recorded his first single as the James Taylor Quartet later that year. A take on Herbie Hancock's Blow Up, it was released on the Acid Jazz precursor label Re-Elect The President and marked the beginning of a long association with Acid Jazz, helping to lay the foundations of his acclaimed career and everything that followed. It is fitting that the anniversary of that session is marked by James' first release in a trio format. The Truth sees him joined by renowned musicians Theo Carasco on drums and Orlando Flemming on upright bass, creating a sound inspired by the records Les McCann, Hampton Hawes, and Lonnie Liston Smith were making in the early 1970s. The trio's sound is shaped by extensive interaction with analogue electric keyboards, including the Fender Rhodes, James' principal instrument throughout, alongside the Solina string synthesiser and Hammond organ. The group is joined by Aref Durvesh on tablas, while gospel-trained singer Liz Jai adds vocals to three tracks. The album includes interpretations of Vince Guaraldi's Lucy & Linus and Thus Sprach Zarathustra, alongside the uplifting vocal title track and the cosmic jazz journey of Aref's Space. A fitting addition to James Taylor's catalogue on Acid Jazz, The Truth marks a return to the label that launched his career.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Jeff Parker - New Breed (2026 Edition) (Ofgv) (LP) (New (N))
Je? Parker's 2016 album The New Breed was a turning point for both Parker and International Anthem, changing the trajectory of his solo career as well as drawing an abundance of attention to our fresh imprint despite our then very limited catalog. Most importantly though, the album is the first to give voice to Parker's wholly unique take on sample-based beat construction augmented by improvisation and live instrumentation (performed in this case by the high-level crew of Paul Bryan on bass, Josh Johnson on alto saxophone and keys, Jamire Williams and Jay Bellerose on drums, Parker's daughter Ruby on vocals, and Parker himself on guitar, synths, and other instruments). What began as Je?'s interest in understanding his own idea of hip-hop processes (and how they related to his work in jazz) expanded into a blueprint for much of his work since then. (Hear also: The New Breed's expansive followup Suite For Max Brown, the gentle deconstructionist solo guitar of Forfolks, and the long-form slow bloom improvisation of The Way Out of Easy.)

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Joe Zawinul - Zawinul (LP, 180 Gram, Reissue) (New (N))
It would not be incorrect to claim that Zawinul was the first Weather Report album with regard to both it's concept and sound since all protagonists are already present: Joe Zawinul, Wayne Shorter and Miroslav Vitous. This album confirms that Zawinul was the primary creative generator of Weather Report, the connecting link between the band and Miles Davis's keyboard-laden experiments on ""In A Silent Way""; indeed, the composition in it's complex orchestral form as composed by Zawinul is newly arranged on this LP and creates it's very own vision of this brilliant work. The two keyboarders, with the formidable Herbie Hancock alongside Zawinul, constitute the fundament for this poised and exploratory album and embellish their work with the galactic sound effects created by Echoplex and ring modulator. The third founder of Weather Report, Miroslav Vitous, is to be heard on the bass, and the hard bop of the trumpeter Woods Shaw proves that he is an absolute maestro when it comes to jazz rock. Earl Turbinton provides for the Wayne Shorter-like rays of light on the soprano saxophone, which Shorter himself then expresses on ""Double Image"". This work is the direct connection between Davis's earlier electric recordings and Weather Report and constitutes the basis for almost all subsequent eclectic contemporary jazz projects: Miles Davis's ""In A Silent Way"", the Weather Report album of the same name and this LP are an inseparable series of recordings, which document the origin of one of the most important and influential music trends of the 20th century. This Speakers Corner reissue LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head. More information under http://www. Pure-analogue. #com.
