Crimson - Latin Music By Sally Ramirez and Doug Robinson

Crimson is the title of a new CD of Latin music, featuring the enchanting voice of Sally Ramirez, and the extraordinary guitar of Doug Robinson.

In four words, I can tell you everything you need to know about this CD:

This is great music.

The synergy of these two fine artists makes every song special, filled with passion, surprises and sweet sounds.

Johnny Russo and His New CD: All Original

Ithaca jazz legend Johnny Russo has released a new CD, titled All Original. The CD contains 16 original compositions by Russo (some co-composed by Doug Robinson), written between 1984 and 2007. Russo is accompanied by the guitarist Robinson, and the East Hill Classic Jazz Group.

I first heard Johnny Russo and Doug Robinson at the Commons in Ithaca, New York, in the summer of 2005, delighting a crowd with their swinging '40s and '50s sounds. The release of their latest and liveliest CD is great news for Russo-Robinson fans, and for music-lovers everywhere. In this CD, as in their previous releases, these two masters of jazz and improv have done something genuinely heartfelt and beautiful, giving us songs and sounds that are unforgettable.

To order the CD, for $ 10 (plus shipping), visit the WaterShed Arts website:
