Rick Estrin & The Nightcats: The Hits Keep Coming (Alligator; 48:53 ★★★★) Rick Estrin and his nattily dressed band are among the few seated at the head table in the royal court of blues. They, and their seventh album, are that good. Estrin’s a born entertainer with a zany streak, a master harmonica player, a sly lyricist, a solid tunesmith and a saucy singer delighting in the peculiarity of his own voice. He exudes authority, as does guitarist Kid Andersen. The other Nightcats, organist Lorenzo Farrell and drummer D’Mar Martin, customize their work to fit Estrin’s best-ever batch of tunes and one each from Muddy Waters and Leonard Cohen. Guest zest from gospel vocal trio Sons of The Soul Revivers.

Songs like "Da Doo Ron Ron" and "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" were written by a man whose name would always be associated with murder, not record-making hits. Phil Spector is now the stuff of true-crime legends, with his music accolades taking a backseat. The former mogul worked with The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, and then all but disappeared in the early 1980s until he was charged with murder in 2003. Six years later, Spector was found guilty after a retrial and was sentenced to 19 years to life. Is he still in prison, or did his vast fortune...

Stylistically hard-to-describe artists are nothing new. However, with Ben Monder's solo excursions, one often feels the need to issue a warning/disclaimer that might read something like, "Caution—Exiting Known Musical Universe." The 24-minute title track from his album Hydra (Sunnyside, 2013) indeed melds techniques and generic signposts from jazz, rock, medieval and modern classical music, but it may be the harmonic space that dominates Monder's vision that is most remarkable—a mysterious zone the eschews nearly all familiar harmony without wallowing in outright dissonance. Not all ears take to it but those with a taste for the exploratory may just plant their flags on Monder's planet.

The much-admired international violinist Eugene Sarbu died yesterday in a private hospital in London. He had been suffering from a protracted illness. The first Romanian violinist after Georges Enescu to catch the world’s ear, Sarbu won the Paganini Competition in Genoa and the Carl Flesch International Competition in London, both in 1978.

Being the new person in the office is always difficult, but being the new addition to a band that has been together for over 50 years has got to be especially intimidating. That’s the situation that Simon McBride walked into in 2022 when he replaced long-standing guitarist Steve Morse in pioneering metal band Deep Purple after Morse left to care for his wife as she battles cancer. Thankfully, it seems that McBride is a natural fit for the metal legends.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

England-born, Netherlands-based alto saxophonist Sam Newbould uses the title of his third album to directly reference his temporary adoption of a Polish homing pigeon. But in a broader sense, Homing is about a man's pursuit to pinpoint his identity as an artist abroad. Zeroing in on that subject with clarity, sophistication, smarts, humor and a slanted tunefulness all his own, Newbould folds everything neatly into his own findings and takes listeners along for a compelling ride.

In the early 1990s, still a teenager, US-born Madeleine Peyroux was a member of the Paris-based buskers The Lost Wandering Blues And Jazz Band led by the singer and raconteur Danny Fitzgerald. Peyroux cut her professional teeth travelling around Europe with the band, singing and playing guitar on an eclectic range of material containing a large proportion of vintage jazz and blues. The variety of songs on Peyroux's first album, Dreamland (Atlantic, 1996), reflected those formative street-performer years, ranging from the Patsy Cline hit "Walking After Midnight" through Edith Piaf's "La Vie En Rose" and on to Bessie Smith's "Restless Blues." Reviews were mostly positive, and the album sold well enough, but Peyroux backed out of sight for around eight years. Returning, she found major-league success with her similarly programmed second album, Careless Love (Rounder, 2004), a melodically and rhythmically irresistible mix of vintage jazz and blues, chanson and songs by Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan and Hank Williams.
