Mose Allison: American Legend Live in California

Read "American Legend Live in California" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Che dire di questo live del 2006, quando il suo protagonista viaggiava verso gli ottanta (li avrebbe compiuti di lì a un anno, l'11 novembre 2007)? Poco e male, viene spontaneo affermare. Mose Allison ha fior di estimatori, per carità, che evidentemente sono riusciti a trovare nel suo canto sdolcinato e privo di qualunque tipo di ...

Read "Mose Allison: American Legend in California" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Tippo, Mississippi is about as far from Charleston as it is Tutwiler, the two county seats of Tallahatchie County, located on the northeastern edge of the alluvial Delta plain, before the land turns to rolling hills. There lives in Tippo, an Allison family, who thirty years ago were patients of mine when I was practicing pharmacy ...

Mark Sherman: Family First

Read "Family First" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il lato gentile del neo-bop. Talvolta talmente gentile da sfociare in smooth jazz (di classe s’intende). Potremmo inquadrare in questo modo Family First, il nuovo lavoro di Mark Sherman, vibrafonista newyorchese saldamente ancorato allo straight-ahead jazz ma pure richiesto solista di grandi orchestre di musica classica. Che si tratti di brani a tempo veloce o medio ...

Mark Sherman: Family First

Read "Family First" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone


Vibraphonist/composer Mark Sherman records as he has over the past twenty years and, unlike others who specialize on this instrument, continues to show no interest in expanding his sound to avant-garde or world music influences. What Sherman does exhibit is his use of Milt Jackson's blues and Bobby Hutcherson's shimmering vibes-style. Sherman's Family First again demonstrates ...

Mark Sherman: Family First

Read "Family First" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


Family First, by New York-based vibraphonist and educator Mark Sherman, revolves around similar concepts that reflect his spiritual, artistic, and personal priorities to reach, touch and move people. This is his second album with a working band that has developed a distinctive sound which includes the unison playing of Sherman's vibes and Joe Magnarelli's flugelhorn. Sherman ...
