Heart’s breakthrough debut, Dreamboat Annie, has often been framed in the context of a female-led band successfully matching the moves of its male counterparts during an era when women weren’t associated with rocking out — particularly on a mainstream level. While that take is true — Ann and Nancy Wilson practically stood alone amid a commercial age dominated by testosterone — it undersells the appeal, scope, and craftsmanship of an album that deserves to be revered strictly because of its merit, not because of the gender of the group’s principal members.

Chantal Chamberland – Dripping Indigo – Evosound Records 180g 2LP Coloured Vinyl
Smooth as a dry martini and equally intoxicating, Chantal Chamberland’s “Dripping Indigo” cements her role as one of the best interpreters of classic song book favorites.
Two factors set Chamberland’s music apart from the pack. First, the arrangements are slow and sexy relying on a small jazz ensemble for backing (piano, sax, bass light rhythm).
Secondly is her luscious voice, which caresses the listener with a breathy purr throughout the album.

John Coltrane – Coltrane Jazz – Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) 180g Vinyl
The first album to hit the shelves after Giant Steps, Coltrane Jazz was recorded in November and December 1959, although one of the eight tracks ("Villiage Blues") was recorded in late 1960. On everything save the aforementioned "Village Blues," Coltrane used the Miles Davis rhythm section of pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb
AllMusic describes Coltrane Jazz as the saxophone legend's preparation for his launch into his peak years of the 1960s. There are three standards aboard, but the group reaches their peak on Coltrane's original material, particularly "Harmonique" with its melodic leaps and upper-register saxophone strains and the winding, slightly Eastern-flavored principal riffs of "Like Sonny," dedicated to Sonny Rollins. The moody "Village Blues" features the lineup of McCoy Tyner on piano, Elvin Jones on drums, and Steve Davis on bass; with the substitution of Jimmy Garrison on bass, that personnel would play on Coltrane's most influential and beloved 1960s albums.
