Charles Gayle: Holiday Selection
by Chris May
Downtown veteran, multi-instrumentalist Charles Gayle's style suits all sorts of situations. It works equally well as an irresistible morning wake-up call or an unusual choice of late night, post-coital soundtrack.

Desmond After Dark (With the Dave Brubeck Quartet)

In late May and early June 1961, McCoy Tyner was part of the John Coltrane group that recorded the ground-breaking ...

The whole list makes me euphoric, but highlights for me would be Jack DeJohnette's fevered drumming on “Down San ...

Alice Coltrane's Divine Ferocity
by Lawrence Peryer
Alice Coltrane's death in 2007 did not bring about the critical reassessment her work deserves. Nothing less than a trailblazer in free and spiritual jazz, the pianist and harpist was a deeply sensitive blues player and top-rate composer. Working in the shadow of her husband, saxophonist John Coltrane, through his controversial, late-period work and her erratic ...
McCoy Tyner: Vol. One, 1959-60
by Lawrence Peryer
Vol. One, 1959-60 | Vol. Two, 1960-61 Most biographers rely on one of two creation myths for pianist McCoy Tyner's career: He first emerged from his native Philadelphia as part of saxophonist Benny Golson and trumpeter Art Farmer's Jazztet, or he had been known to, and gigged around town with, saxophonist John Coltrane ...
