This week features the first trio recording by pianist Kris Davis in ten years—Run The Gauntlet. It's on her own label, Pyroclastic, and of course it's excellent. The potent avant-garde scene of Chicago emerges on Propulsion in the form of a new quartet led by saxophonist Dave Rempis, while the free jazz scene of NYC contributes another Live At Scholes Street Studio session, this time with saxophonist Stephen Gauci, drummer Kevin Shea and bassist Adam Lane. Another Adam—O'Farrill—shows why he's regarded as a new force on trumpet on his new Hueso. Also debuting this week are saxophonists Soren Skov from Denmark, Katie Webster from Seattle and Germany's Welf Dorr, while from Boston comes Porchbone, led by saxophonist Jorrit Dijkstra. The rest of the playlist has plenty of energy as well, including a tight set from some of South Africa's current talent.
