Phillip Johnston: Back From Down Under
by Ken Dryden
IntroductionPhillip Johnston is best known to many jazz fans as co-founder of The Microscopic Septet, though the saxophonist and composer has led many groups of his own and co-led others, including Big Trouble, The Transparent Quartet, Fast 'N' Bulbous and The Spokes. In addition, Johnston has composed and performed numerous soundtracks for both silent and modern ...
Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Loafer's Hollow
by Mark Sullivan
The expanded, septet version of Mostly Other People Do The Killing takes on more pre-bebop era jazz. The previous septet outing Red Hot (Hot Cup, 2013) had focused on jazz and blues recordings of the 1920s -30s; this one adds the music of the swing era to the mix. One of the defining changes in the ...
Mick Rossi: 160
by Vincenzo Roggero
Nato come commento musicale al documentario “Albi's Oboe" di Matt Dine, 160 (è la frequenza utilizzata nella registrazione del disco) -come talvolta accade in casi del genere, si svincola dalla sua funzione originale per trasformarsi in opera che vive di vita propria, autonoma e originale. Mick Rossi suona, oltre agli usuali pianoforte e batteria, una serie ...
Steven Bernstein, Paolo Fresu, Gianluca Petrella, Marcus Rojas: Brass Bang!
by Vincenzo Roggero
All'inizio c'è la voce di Steve Bernstein che su un sottofondo di fanfara snocciola una sequenza di frasi in italiano maccheronico, da turista fai da te, poi irrompe Duke Ellington, la sua “Black and Tan Fantasy" ha pienezza orchestrale, colori vividi e sorprendente delicatezza. Anche i Rolling Stones? Così parrebbe perché l'inconfondibile melodia di “As Tears ...
Nice Jazz Festival 2014
by Emilio Palanti
Nizza--Francia 8-12.07.2014 Quest'anno, guardando il cartellone del Festival Jazz di Nizza, a prima vista si lamentava l'assenza di vere e proprie superstar, com'era accaduto nelle edizioni precedenti, ma a rassegna finita possiamo dire che non son mancate le piacevoli sorprese. Sia ben chiaro, molti nomi di prima grandezza erano presenti, ma forse ...
Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey: Race Riot Suite
by Doug Collette
Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey's Race Riot Suite is a reminder how adventurous the group has always been since its inception in 1994--never more so, perhaps, than in its latest incarnation, in place beginning in 2010. Four intervals, labeled “Prayers," are interspersed throughout the seven formally labeled tracks and allow JFJO to demonstrate its own ...
Search and Restore Benefit: A Round Robin of Duo Improvisations
by Daniel Lehner
There's an old conundrum about a man with an axe. He broke the head chopping at a particularly stubborn branch and replaced it. Months later, he broke the handle and replaced that. The question goes: Does he have the same axe? It's a philosophical question that deals with how parts interrelate with a whole. Now imagine ...

Bobby Previte & The New Bump: Set the Alarm for Monday
by AAJ Italy Staff
Staffilate da soundtrack noir (in grado di richiamare alla mente Lalo Schifrin o Leroy Holmes), l’ineffabile ammiccamento notturno alla Lounge Lizard e un andamento decisamente newyorkese, sono gli estremi di questa ottima nuova uscita dell’instancabile Bobby Previte. In questo caso è alle prese con una serie di proprie eccellenti composizioni, che già dai titoli tradiscono una ...
