by Chris May
March 22, 2023

This mind-bending album skewers any notion that modern-day organ trios are all unimaginative bores churning out reheated cliches lifted from Blue Note and Prestige albums of the 1950s and '60s. With that stereotype in mind, one would hesitate to apply the term “organ trio" to the collaborative group on Targeted. But its instigator, ...

Jazzfestival Saalfelden 2022 Saalfelden, Austria 18-21.8.2022 Spesso i lettori si abituano a leggere in diversi report sulla scena jazzistica accenni alla “scena scandinava," come se questa fosse un monolite che si aggira nel più ampio panorama afro-euro-americano. In realtà questa scena è policroma, polifonica, può far interagire i suoi elementi come farli ...

Pino Palladino and Blake Mills: Notes with Attachments

March 12, 2021
