"Cicero - Two Lives, One Stage" wins German Record Critics' Award

“Cicero – Two Lives, One Stage”, the documentary by Kai Wessel, Katharina Rinderle and Tina Freitag receives the German Record Critics’ Award (Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik) in the category Best Music Film.

“They were giants of jazz and swing: the piano virtuoso Eugen Cicero and his son Roger, a vocal wonder in big band sound. Katharina Rinderle and Kai Wessel not only tell their musically closely interwoven and tragic family history. With a multitude of companions and fascinating archive material (especially in the extras!), they delve into a still unexamined era of German musical life: jazzed-up classical music, the popularisation of swing in post-war Germany, the demanding compromise between jazz and commercialisation. A highly emotional and informative double portrait of two unique individuals and musicians, brilliantly narrated and edited.”
(For the jury: Thorsten Lorenz)

Soundtrack released by IN+OUT Records.

Eugen Cicero – 80th Anniversary
 

Today we remember fondly the one and only Eugen Cicero which would be 80 years old!
His piano style of “swinging the classics”  is still unique and 
unrivaled!
IN+OUT Records celebrates
his artistry on the piano with a recently re-discovered recording
which is a live concert of 1992 in Zürich. It is one of his many gems
you should not miss.

Jimmy Cobb     † May 24     R.I.P.

With sadness we had to learn about the death of Master Drummer Jimmy Cobb.
It was in 1991, when I had the pleasure to meet Jimmy for the very first time, when he contributed his incomparable groove to an album we recorded with Nat Adderly: “We Remember Cannon”. He was a living legend longtime then. And only little more than a year ago we could hear him again on Hendrik Meurkens´ album named “Cobb´s Pocket”, not knowing that this could be one of his last recordings. I am thankful to Hendrik, that he dedicated a song to Jimmy with the beautiful title which says it all: time, feel & groove it is all in Cobb’s Pocket.

Thank you for the Music Jimmy!

(Frank Kleinschmidt, IN+OUT Records)

It is with space sadness that we share with you the news that Danny Ray Thompson, long time Sun Ra Arkestra member, left the planet on Thursday night March 12, 2020.  He was on 72 Arkestra recordings and performed on baritone sax, alto sax, flute, Neptunian libflecto (bassoon with French horn or saxophone mouthpiece), percussion, and vocals within the band.
He performed 45 years in the Sun Ra Arkestra, first joining it in 1967.  He also served as Band Manager during his Arkestra tenure.
Danny Ray Thompson is now traveling the spaceways, joining the many beloved Arkestra members who have previously left the planet and who now soar with the spirit of Sun Ra.

Nathan Davis     † April 8     R.I.P.

We are sad to announce the death of Mr. Nathan Davis. Born on Feb 15 1937 in Kansas City, he passed away at the age of 81 in Palm Beach, Florida. Nathan Davis has been a dear friend to us since the very beginning of IN+OUT Records.

He was the Heart & Soul of the Band „Roots“. His first recording with us was in 1991 (Roots „Salutes The Saxophone”). After Don Pullen (1995) and Arthur Blythe (2017) he is the third founding member of the group who left our planet.

Our feelings are with his wife and family. 

Rest in Peace and keep swinging up there, Nathan!
