C. Andrew Hovan's Best Releases of 2016
BySo looking through my offerings this year, the word traditional might come to mind and that is just fine by me. These gentlemen and lady are true artists practicing their craft at the highest levels within the tradition of the music. The same could be said for the embarrassment of riches we found in the reissue market this year, particularly when it came to vinyl. Furthermore, hats off to Resonance Records for unearthing two stellar sets that had been previously unheard.
One for All The Third Decade (Smoke Sessions) | Ralph Peterson Triangular III (Onyx/Truth Revolution) | Dave Stryker Eight Track II (Strikezone) |
Little Johnny Rivero Music in Me (Truth Revolution) | Jerome Jennings The Beast (Iola) | Behn Gillece Dare to Be (Posi-Tone) |
Dena DeRose United (High Note) | Jim Rotondi Dark Blue (Smoke Sessions) | John Coltrane The Atlantic Years in Mono (Rhino) |
Ray Charles The Atlantic Years in Mono (Rhino) | Larry Young In Paris: The ORTF Recordings (Resonance Records) | Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra All My Yesterdays (Resonance Records) |
