REVIEW - The Smooth Jazz Ride

2010-05-07T11:14:00.000-07:00

Often, it has been said that, to preserve smooth jazz, we need to redefine what it is. It has been suggested that, perhaps returning to what it was, as contemporary jazz, is the answer. If so, I have the "Rx" right here for whatever may ail the genre. It's called Urban Vacation, and it's offered by Norwegian saxman Terje Lie (pronounced “Terry Lee”) who, along with contemporary jazz/fusion icons Jeff Lorber and Jimmy Haslip, firmly place the genre in the comfy place where it and its fans have longed for it to be for quite some time. This is solid with a capital “S.”

Lie and friends take us on such a remarkably tasteful journey here that you can easily envision the studio and live settings for this production. Lorber hovering over his chatty and funky keys (and providing a little guitar work, as well), Haslip confidently laying into some of the most defined and authoritative bass lines around (and check out his scatting on the opening track), and Lie providing the brilliance and substance of a very well-played sax to it all clearly is a picture (and audio) we true smooth jazzers can really appreciate.

The writing is sharp and professional with each composition unabashedly bearing its own soul and characteristics. From the popping opening track, “Bail Out” to the funky “Crazy Groove” to the frenetic yet carefully crafted mover called “Dance On the Water” another cleverly timed funkster titled “Blue Funk” to the sweet, mellow, and hook-rich “Sedona” (kudos to Mike Landau for the acoustic guitar solo here, by the way) to the monstrously funky Roy Ayers Ubiquity tune “Red Black and Green” covered here with tight backing vocals and superior sax work by Lie, all the way through the lazily seductive finale, “Tonight,” this is music of magnificent quality. If you’re a true aficionado of what colored smooth jazz in its early years and what should ignite contemporary jazz today, Terje Lie's Urban Vacation has the formula. -- Ronald Jackson

REVIEW - No Solo Smooth Jazz

2010-03-16T10:18:00.000-07:00

No Solo Smooth Jazz Jazz, Swing, Soul, R&B, en definitiva, música superlativa…

Bienvenidos a todos a www.nosolosmoothjazz.com, esta pagina Web que hoy presentamos pretende ser un punto de encuentro para los amantes y aficionados de la buena musica, de la musica de calidad.

www.nosolosmoothjazz.com sera un abanico que abarcara todo tipo de generos musicales, desde el Smooth Jazz hasta el Soul, pasando por el R&B, el Jazz Clasico o el Funk. El comun denominador sera musica con calidad superlativa.

TERJE LIE: URBAN VACATION

Conocido familiarmente como “Terry Lee”, este compositor y saxofonista originario deNoruega pero establecido ya desde hace años en la soleada costa californiana, presenta su segunda producción discográfica que titula genéricamente “Urban Vacation” y que viene avalada por dos músicos que en esta ocasión, además de tocar, también producen la totalidad del álbum. Nos estamos refiriendo al teclista Jeff Lorber y al bajista Jimmy Haslip. Este nuevo disco, al igual que el publicado en el año 2.006 y que llevó por titulo “Traveler”, esta editado por el sello discográfico TCat Records y ya es uno de los más demandados y escuchados en lo que va de año. Terje Lie en “Urban Vacation”, recoge un total de 10 composiciones, en las que el propio saxofonista participa componiendo a medias junto a Jeff Lorber temas como “Bail Out”, “Blue Funk” y “Coral Dream” a lo que hay que añadir el tema titulado “Tonight”, que el propio saxofonista firma en solitario. Por lo que respecta al resto de las composiciones el tandem Lorber-Haslip componen temas como “Crazy Groove”, “Dance On The Water”, “Sedona”, “So Retro” y “Parlophone”. Una de las novedades a destacar en este nuevo trabajo de Terje Lie es la versión que hace del clásico deRoy Ayers, “Red Black And Green”, publicado en el año 1.976 y que ahora recobra actualidad plena. El álbum se inicia con el tema“Bail Out” que lleva inevitablemente la “marca” y el sonido de Jeff Lorber a lo que hay que añadir una poderosa y bien dirigida sección de metal compuesta por Gary Meek al saxo y Ron King a la trompeta. Terje Lie, además de tocar el saxo soprano, alto y tenor, también se encarga de la parte vocal y de los coros. La idea del nuevo disco del saxofonista está basada en el concepto clásico de cuarteto, esto es, Jeff Lorber a los teclados, Jimmy Haslip al bajo, Tony Moore a la batería y el propio Terje Lie al saxo. Lo verdaderamente interesante y novedoso es que al cuarteto se incorporarán músicos adicionales como los guitarristasMichael Landau y Dwight Sills, el bajista Ernest Tibbs, el batería Jeff Olson o el vocalista Sharon Perry. Tal como apuntábamos al inicio de esta crítica, Jeff Lorber y Jimmy Haslip se vuelcan de lleno en el proyecto musical, de esta forma, ambos están presentes, musicalmente hablando, a lo largo de las diez composiciones de la que se compone el álbum y el Smooth Jazz, mezclado con R&B y Pop esta asegurado. Entre los temas más tranquilos, instrumentalmente hablando, destaca el titulado “Sedona” y el compuesto en solitario por el saxofonista, “Tonight” y que contiene un excelente ”solo” de teclados de Jeff Lorber. Tanto de la producción del álbum como de los aspectos más técnicos -grabación y mezcla- se ocupa magistralmente Jeff Lorber en sus estudios de sonidos JHL Sound, localizados en Pacific Palisades, California. Destacar también la presencia en estas labores de Dennis Moody. De la masterización del disco se encarga Rich Breen en Dogmatic, Burbank, California. Por último decir que Terje Liededica la totalidad de su nueva producción discográfica a su madre, persona que supo ver de inmediato el talento musical de su hijo.

When "Groove Jazz" met its perfect match, February 18, 2010

By	Charlie Trece (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews

His first album "Traveler" was a sign of things to come and make no mistake, Terje Lie's "Urban Vacation" is the confirmation without a trace of a doubt. This amazing sax player this time around teamed up with two of the most celebrated contemporary jazz musicians: Jeff Lorber and Jimmy Haslip. The partnership produced one fascinating album filled with fresh harmonies, energetic grooves and outstanding solos. All originals (except Roy Ayer's classic "Red Black and Green") and written by the three of them, recreate the sound of a unique vibe. Songs like "Bail Out" and "Parlophone" take the listener to the magic energy of "groove jazz" at its best. All the tracks display an impecable level of musicianship with awesome arrangements and technically perfect solos by Terje, Lorber and Haslip. Production and mix are wonderfully handled by the same Jeff Lorber. The crew is a world class session: Tony Moore on drums, Gary Meek saxophone and Ron King trumpet with superb guests like Mike Landau (guitar), Jeff Olson (drums), Ernest Tibbs (bass), Dwight Sills (guitar) and Sharon Perry (vocals). Beyond contemporary jazz, beyond funk, beyond fusion, this is the arrival of groove jazz and Terje Lie is leading the movement with this remarkable work.

This is great stuff!, February 16, 2010

By	Bruce Nazarian (Las Vegas, NV USA) - See all my reviews

Teerje Lie is hard to spell, but oh so easy to listen to.
With polished production by Jeff Lorber and Jimmy Haslip, this CD hits the funky pocket with "Bail Out" and "Parlophone", two outstanding tracks that feature Lie's superb phrasing in a bouncy funky setting.

Definitely worth adding to your collection, and discovering if you haven't heard this artist before!

REVIEW - Midwest Record Entertainment

2010-02-10T10:26:00.000-08:00

TERJE LIE/Urban Vacation: Last time out, Lie made a nice set of beach flavored jazz. This time out he teams up with both Jeff Lorber and Jimmy Haslip for a classic feeling fuzak date that always seem to be playing at the bar you stop at when the afternoon traffic is too much of a bitch to deal with and you really feel like just moving easy. There's a sweet magic that kicks in between the three of them that's sure to be welcomed by all the disenfranchised listeners left in the wake of Clear Channel forgetting they ever supported the smooth jazz audience. If you'd rather take a long walk than hit the gym after work, this is what you need in your headphones. Check it out. CHRIS SPECTOR
