This budget-line collection from the K-Tel label isn't tops in fidelity, song quality, or historical information (for example, where these performances were recorded and with whom). However, it does feature top-notch talents like Judy Garland, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and Sarah Vaughan.

Michael Landau, renowned for his instrumental work, has taken somewhat of a left turn with his latest release Rock Bottom. Michael has found his voice on this, his latest offering through Provogue. It’s a quirky piece of work meshing his musical influences and fine guitar work, a trippy ride at times, reminiscent of Hendrix or Robin Trower in feel, but with Landau’s signature style. As expected, the guitar work is first class and to be admired. For those hoping for a typical instrumental piece of work, the inclusion of vocals may challenge some, a bit like Satriani hitting the notes on ‘Flying in a Blue Dream’ back in the day, but time is a healer. I jest of course, Landau can carry a note no problem, and his vocals blend seamlessly with the finely penned songs on Rock Bottom. A classy album from start to finish, Rock Bottom will sit beautifully alongside Landau’s body of work to date.

The mellow album from 2008 with some fine chilled Bossa and tracks like Cancun or Soulsalicious is sold out at the moment…The idea was to refresh it a bit (new mastered/new mixed) and add some mixes like the radio edit of “Love on a Rainy Day”, the Bossa for a Coup remix and the brandnew version of “Taxi to Bombay” with the Bollywood flute player Dinesh Mishra.
