Phil Haynes, Janel Leppin, & Ndududzo Makhathini

Last year veteran drummer Phil Haynes set out on a mission to document his past recording and music history; the first step, and a large one, was the publication of a book, "Chasing The Masters," which was paralleled by a 60-plus compilation of songs by various groups he led or played with. One of those bands was 4 Horns Or What, and now his next move was to issue all three of that band's recordings on The Complete American Recordings. Washington DC cellist Janel Leppin has a follow-up to her last recordings with her Ensemble Volcanic Ash; it's called To March Is To Love and that gets sampled in this edition of One Man's Jazz. Other new releases of note come from the Flame Trio led by English pianist Robert Mitchell, South African pianist Nduduzo Makhathini quickly making his North American mark with uNomkhubulwane out on Blue Note, pianist Sebastien Ammann, and Italian saxophonist Rosario Giuliani's Logbook: Live At Sounds which finds him returning to a club in Belgium where he had one of his very first gigs. The rest of the cupboard is filled with some fine tunes, so please enjoy!
