Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Oscar Peterson - Exclusively For My Friends: The Lost Tapes (LP) (New (N))
Tears of sorrow mingled with tears of joy as Oscar Peterson fans realized that the keyboard genius who had just recovered his health was still capable of amazing them all, although he had obviously forfeited some of his past vitality. This may well have induced MPS - the label with whom Oscar Petersen himself claimed to have made his best recordings - to search their archives for lost tapes from Peterson's heydey. And lo and behold, a number of previously unreleased recordings were discovered which had been taped "exclusively for my friends" in the private studio in Villingen in 1965-1968.The electric atmosphere of these live sessions before a mere handful of listeners proves once again just how at home the musicians felt in the Black Forest villa - as is borne out by the fact that Peterson's usual trio formation alternated with his stand-in musicians of Sam Jones on the bass and Bobby Durham on the drums.And now, exclusively for all jazz fans, these amazing tracks are available for the very first time on an LP filled with glorious sound. Whether long-time collector or jazz newcomer, one thing is certain: this album belongs in every collection!." Recording: May 1965, November 1967 and October 1968 at H.G.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Paul Desmond - Easy Living (LP, 180 Gram) (New (N))
The eight numbers on ""Easy Living"" constitute the height of Desmond's career anyway after he had at last managed to take his leave from Dave Brubeck's group. And the change from purely chordal playing and single notes from Jim Hall is more airy and more inspiring than the meaty piano clusters of his former boss. And don't forget either that half of the Modern Jazz Quartet, namely the bassist Percy Heath and the drummer Connie Kay, deliver an exquisite skeletal structure over which the musicians can improvise brilliantly. 180 gram.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Paul Desmond - Take Ten (LP) (New (N))
No, not "Take Five" but "Take Ten" is the title of this LP and it's very first number. Certainly this should be taken as a hint that it was not Dave Brubeck but Paul Desmond who was the composer of this 'million seller'. At the recording session, the guitarist Jim Hall was more than a substitute for the piano - he contributed to the quartet a whole new sound colouring which was tinged with the influences of bossa nova.The numbers are all easy-going and airy, the melodic lines and sound are filled with transparency. All the while one is curious as to the clear part-writing, and the wealth of ideas emanating from the soloists. This does not only apply to the old favourites "Alone Together", "Nancy" and "The One I Love", all three of them arrangements made ad hoc in the studio and which demonstrate how familiar the musicians were with one another, how they listened to one another, answered, and kept the dialogue flowing. The atmosphere is relaxed, and this conveys itself to the listener even after almost half a century.RCA's recording and reproduction technology was ahead of it's time. The music of these South-American-sounding gems comes out of the loudspeakers with brilliance, clarity and - at last - without the frustrating crackle of a second-hand LP.."

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Paul Dunlea / Mires,Trevor - Silfra (LP) (New (N))
The twin trombone frontline is an esoteric but noble tradition in jazz, harking back to the famed 1950s recordings of Kai Windings and JJ Johnson. While respecting the tradition, the internationally renowned trombonists Paul Dunlea (from Cork) and Trevor Mires (from London) are not traditionalists, and their collaborative project Silfra showcases their thoroughly contemporary skills as composers and arrangers to create a fascinatingly diverse set of trombone led music. Silfra is the name of a place in Iceland where the tectonic plates of Europe and America meet and rub together. "I scuba-dived between the two plates and touched them both at the same time," says Dunlea, and the album presents a true transatlantic meeting of talent. The project was conceived after Paul and Trevor worked together on a project at London's famous Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, and the music was recorded at the legendary New York studio of Rudy Van Gelder with a specially assembled band of their favorite US musicians. For the drum chair, Trevor chose Billy Kilson, famed for his long association with Dave Holland, while Paul selected bassist Ike Sturm (Donny McCaslin) and pianist Jim Ridl (Kurt Elling, Joe Locke). Ryan Keberle contributes a third trombone to some of the sections to create a full, lush sound. The result is a stunning album that combines influences from both the leaders' multi-faceted careers, Paul's Irish heritage, and their deep love of the jazz tradition.Silfra is a beautifully realised album from two master musicians completely at ease in their surroundings UPC: 5065014356852Label: Whirlwind RecordingsRelease Date: 5.8.26Format: Vinyl

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Quinsin Nachoff - Patterns From Nature (LP, 180 Gram) (New (N))
Every new release from Quinsin Nachoff is a headline event, a radical combining and recombining of sonic and conceptual innovations, ever-evolving textures, powerful melodies and rhythms, that always open up new vistas for exploration while clearly marking the way back to what has come before. The album Patterns from Nature is an unashamedly ambitious showcase for his remarkable abilities as a composer and orchestrator, working within the space where the heartfelt collaborative improvisation of jazz meets the adventurous rigor of contemporary music and the depth and complexity of conceptual art. As composer, Nachoff created the closely written, intricately detailed scores for a pair of large-ensemble pieces. As bandleader, he oversaw the realisation of those scores by a hand-picked team of remarkable genre-crossing musicians, including pianist Matt Mitchell, percussionist Satoshi Takeishi, bassist Carlo de Rosa, clarinetist Francois Houle, trombonist Ryan Keberle, and the internationally renowned Molinari String Quartet, supported by a large chamber ensemble conducted by JC Sanford. As interdisciplinary collaborator, he worked with physicist Dr. Stephen Morris, whose research into emergent patterns in nature informed the project's structural concepts, and four filmmakers -Tina de Groot, Lee Hutzulak, Gita Blak, and Udo Prinsen - originally conceived alongside them for a multimedia version of the work, resulting in the titular Patterns from Nature suite of four contrasting movements that engage the listener at every level.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Radiohop - Hard To Handle (LP) (New (N))
RADIOHOP are a four-piece jazz/hip-hop band from Amsterdam, exploring the boundaries between groove, texture and improvisation. The bands members - Joshua Lutz (keys), Euan Jenkins (drums), Johnny Biner (guitar) and Joel Svedberg (bass) - moved to Amsterdam around 2020 to study jazz and quickly plugged into the city's bubbling scene. Each band member plays an equal role in shaping the music as a single organism, emphasising feeling and atmosphere rather than ego or individual spotlight. The compositions arise from experimentation, intuitive collaboration, and deep listening, an approach that has as much to do with their backgrounds as improvisers and beat-makers as it does with their roots in jazz. RADIOHOP have performed as the rhythm section for artists like Soul Supreme and Juju Rogers. HARD TO HANDLE is their second album and the first on Melting Pot Music. As the title suggests, RADIOHOP are going hard on this one.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Roland Kirk - Inflated Tear (LP, 180 Gram, Reissue) (New (N))
Roland Kirk was an extremely talented multi-instrumentalist, who lost his sight at a very early age, and played unconventional jazz, which was not entirely free but in which melodic and very beautiful phases alternated with moments of complete dissonance and conjured up his urban background, especially reflecting his view of the world as a handicapped man. Kirk was not only famous for his unique sound achieved through his playing several instruments simultaneously and his innovative approach to music but also for his dynamic live performances. In November 1967 Kirk left EmArcy for Atlantic Records, leading his quartet through a highly introspective, somewhat melancholy programme, which was based in the blues and groove traditions of the mid-60s. Kirk himself played flutes, the stritch, manzello and tenor saxophones, the whistle, clarinet and more - precisely those instruments that had created his unique sound, particularly when some of these instruments were played simultaneously by him. Jazz critics who had previously criticised Kirk's sound now praised him once they had heard the restrained and elegantly layered ""Black And Crazy Blues"", the breathtakingly executed ""Creole Love Call"", the razor-sharp soul in ""The Inflated Tear"" and the gyrating lyricism of the winds in ""Fly By Night"" - and quite rightly so. Roland Kirk convinced his listenership anyway and sold over 10,000 copies of the present LP in the very first year of it's release. This is Roland Kirk in his most competent and visionary form; his reading of jazz harmony and capricious sonances is virtually incomparable. 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.

Her trio-Charles Ables (bass) and Steve Williams (drums)-provides subtle, breathing support, leaving space for Horn's unhurried phrasing and emotional clarity.Newly remastered in 24-bit/96 kHz and pressed on 180g vinyl, this edition restores the concert's warmth, poise, and luminous detail.'Shirley Horn has one of the most alluring voices in jazz - she let's the lyrics melt into a violet haze as she slowly unwraps the melody - and she's an exceptional pianista wonderful, moving combination of voice and song.'

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Spice - Let There Be Spice (LP, Colored, Limited Edition) (New (N))
A great, self-contained, soul music collective that never got their just due because of a spurious tax scam that was prevalent in the record industry in the early to mid-1970s - the group known as Spice, and their 1976 LP "Let There Be Spice," remained in obscurity without members of the band even knowing that it was ever released until nearly 30 years after the fact. Now, thanks to the sharp ears of his internet savvy aging mother and subsequent interviews with Spice's leader Richard Brown Jr. - the full story of who this almost-forgotten band was, and what happened to them and why, is finally revealed. Whatever transpired business-wise should not obscure the quality of the music that resulted in the recording of this album. The performances are impeccable, the musicianship is top-notch, and the original songs in retrospect, were way ahead of their time. As a special treat for rare soul music lovers, this long-lost LP has been newly remastered for this exclusive release and pressed on limited edition color vinyl Tracklist: Everything Is You Happy Music Do It Nice I'm So Glad To Say The Last Time You've Got Me Girl Don't Fight It Fool In Love UPC: 5061119460272Label: Sonic Wax RecordsRelease Date: 7.24.26Format: Vinyl

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Sullivan Fortner - Leave That In There (LP) (New (N))
Three-time GRAMMY Award-winning pianist Sullivan Fortner returns with Leave That In There, a new trio album that finds him at a peak of his creativity and artistic ambition. Following the success of Southern Nights, which earned the 2025 GRAMMY Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Album, Fortner delivers his most personal work to date. Recorded with his long-standing trio featuring bassist Tyrone Allen II and drummer Kayvon Gordon, Leave That In There draws together memories, family histories, and spiritual traditions that have shaped his artistic journey. Praised by Robert Glasper as "a masterclass in history and a glimpse of the future," the album reflects Fortner's unique ability to bridge tradition and innovation by expanding the possibilities of the piano trio through a bold combination of acoustic instrumentation, analog synthesizers, marimba, and Bà tá drumming. Leave That In There becomes a space of dialogue, memory, tension, humor, and invention. The result is a bold artistic statement from one of the defining pianists of his generation, an album that broadens the language of contemporary jazz while looking simultaneously to it's past and future.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Sun Ra & His Arkestra - East Two +5 (LP) (New (N))
EAST TWO + 5 comprises previously unreleased tracks from one of Sun Ra's most productive periods: 1972-73. Those two hectic years saw Sun Ra recording numerous albums, staging concerts, teaching at Berkeley, acting in and composing the score for a full-length movie, embarking on a multi-album (though ill-fated) major label deal, and touring the U.S. and Europe. The title track, "East Two," is one of two pieces on this album originating at a two day October 1972 session at Chicago's Streeterville Studios. It's an ominous, sprawling processional, and the only known recording of this moody work. Arkestra baritone saxophonist Pat Patrick played electric bass on this session, which also featured Ra's typically idiosyncratic synth, along with fine solos from Kwame Hadi (trumpet) and Arkestra mainstay John Gilmore (tenor sax). The other track is an alternate version of "Rocket #9" where Ra's voice is scarcely heard in the ensemble vocals in favor of the Space Ethnic Voices. Additional material is taken from 1973 Variety Studios sessions in NYC including "In Tomorrow's Realm," where veteran Arkestra bassist Ronnie Boykins provided the anchor with his bass line forming it's vital rhythmic framework. This would be the final year Boykins worked regularly with Ra and this track is a fitting tribute to his role in the band, demonstrating how essential he was to Sun Ra's sound.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Tenderlonious - Africa/Brass Live (LP) (New (N))
Sixty-four years after John Coltrane recorded the groundbreaking Africa/Brass for Impulse!, Tenderlonious honours the original recording while pushing it forward with a Coltrane-like fervour of his own. Africa/Brass Live was recorded at the Melbourne International Jazz Festival in October 2025, as part of Pique-nique's Take Two series. Each Take Two event begins with an uninterrupted, high-fidelity playback of a seminal album, heard as it was originally intended, followed by a live reinterpretation with full artistic freedom. It's an experiment into what happens when serious musicians immerse themselves in a work long enough to discover their own path through it.For this performance, Tenderlonious assembled a quartet of trusted collaborators. Tim Carnegie, his longtime Ruby Rushton drummer, flew in from London. Horatio Luna on bass and On-Ly on piano completed the group, two Melbourne musicians Tenderlonious describes as "seriously underrated." The melodies, he said, would be the foundation. After that, the search would begin. And the search was fierce!That's what you're hearing on this record. One beautiful note, Tenderlonious will tell you, means more than a thousand. Coltrane knew it. And on a Monday night in Melbourne, they proved it. Tracklist: Africa Greensleeves Blues Minor UPC: 5052442031208Label: 22aRelease Date: 8.14.26Format: Vinyl

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Terri Wells - Just Like Dreamin' (LP) (New (N))
Hailing from the City of Brotherly Love, Terri Wells first came to prominence as a session singer for Philadelphia International Records in the mid-1970s following the breakup of her group City Limits. Wells soon began recording and touring as a featured vocalist with artists such as Lou Rawls, M.F.S.B., Leon Huff, Jean Carne and Dexter Wansel. In 1979, she joined the band of Roy Ayers and eventually sang lead on "Turn Me Loose" and co-wrote the track "Let's Stay Together" from his 1982 album "Feeling Good." Recruited by staff producer Nick Martinelli, Terri signed as a solo act with the Philly World Records in 1983 and released her one and only full length offering "Just Like Dreamin'." The album features the singles "You Make It Heaven" and "I'll Be Around" which both charted in the United Kingdom. To this day, her sensational debut remains a classic example of the soulful Philly sound of the early 1980s.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Thad / Ole Kock Hansen / Jesper Lundgaard / Ed Thigpen Jones - Thad Jones Quartet: Three & One (LP) (New (N))
Thad Jones (1923 - 1986) was best known as the leader / composer / arranger of one of the best big jazz bands of the 1960s and 70s. But Thad was also a superb instrumentalist in smaller settings. This was Thad's first quartet recording in 30 years (recorded in Copenhagen, October 1984). The newly remastered 24 bit/96 kHz 180g vinyl edition draws a vivid, intimate portrait of Jones the storyteller: reflective, free, and full of tunes. The session finds Jones in inspired form-'the way his notes fall,' as Mel Lewis once said, is fully on display-mixing relaxed authority, sly humor, and a deeply personal sense of swing. Joined by pianist Ole Kock Hansen, bassist Jesper Lundgaard, and drummer Ed Thigpen, Jones moves effortlessly from buoyant blues to spacious ballads, stretching himself with the same curiosity that marked his early Mingus collaborations'... Jones' harmonically advanced style and crisp sharp sound... very much intact on this relaxed quartet date... His improvisations are thoughtful... easily recommended.'

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Thelonious Monk - Big Band & Quartet In Concert (LP) (New (N))
?Thelonious Monk could walk from his flat to New York's famous Philharmonic Hall on the corner of 64th Street and Broadway when he made his very first appearance there with his Big Band in December 1963. And the other musicians could get there on the underground: Phil Woods, Steve Lacy, Thad Jones - all of them were members of Monk's closest circle of collaborators. It is no wonder then that the well-known themes were highly agreeable and harmonious. ""I Mean You"", ""Four In One"" and ""Epistrophy"" resounded through the auditorium, the audience was thrilled, Thelonious laughed and danced and a short while later fans could listen to parts of the concert on a recording released by Columbia Records. In a break for a smoke, Monk sat himself down at the piano and played ""Darkness On The Delta"" - nocturnal atmosphere pure. Does it bear the patina of times long past? Absolutely not! Thelonious Monk is as red-hot as he ever was. Tracklist: I Mean You Evidence (When It's) Darkness on the Delta Oska T Played Twice Four in One Epistrophy UPC: 4260019715067Label: Speakers CornerRelease Date: 9.4.26Format: Vinyl
