Heads of State: Search for Peace

Read "Search for Peace" reviewed by Maurizio Zerbo


Un'ennesima proposta accattivante ci viene dalla label indipendente Smoke Records, grazie a questo splendido gruppo di “all stars." L'interplay è perfetto, forte di una più che quarantennale collaborazione che a vario titolo accomuna i quattro musicisti. Tutti ultrassantenni, Gary Bartz e compagni affrontano questa cavalcata tra gli standard con disinvolta naturalezza, che consente di infondere nell'ascoltatore ...

Heads of State: Search For Peace

Read "Search For Peace" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


Much like another group of distinguished jazz veterans, namely The Cookers, the premise here was a simple one. Get together a crew of like-minded musicians with a track record of shared experiences and see where the music takes things.

Steve Heckman Quintet: Search for Peace

Read "Search for Peace" reviewed by Jack Bowers


Steve Heckman says he was inspired to play the tenor saxophone after hearing John Coltrane, especially Coltrane's A Love Supreme. Luckily, Heckman did not follow his mentor completely off the deep end but remained instead true to his bop-bred roots while developing a singular voice of his own on the tenor. On Search for Peace (a ...
