Jon Irabagon: Foxy

Read "Foxy" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Prendere o lasciare. Amore incondizionato o pollice verso. Foxy, il quarto disco del cappellaio matto Jon Irabagon, richiede, anzi, esige una presa di posizione. E il perché si fa presto a dirlo: un assolo di 78 minuti non può lasciare indifferenti. Si, si, avete letto bene: 78 minuti di tambureggiante, travolgente, infuocata improvvisazione. Un flusso ininterrotto ...

Read "Foxy" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay


Foxy is tenor saxophonist Jon Irabagon's fourth album as leader: a 78-minute, uninterrupted trio performance, exploring the possibilities of the 16-bar form through extended improvisation. Put another way, Foxy is a great big belly-laugh of an album; a stunning physical feat; a constantly shifting musical achievement; an adventure; and a raw and visceral performance. And it's ...

Jon Irabagon: Foxy

Read "Foxy" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Fashioned as a late night session, the continuous 78 minutes of saxophonist Jon Irabagon's Foxy is an unrelenting sixteen-bar jam that feels as if the infamous Dean Benedetti had recorded the get-together and now, some nine months (not years) later, it is being released.
