Live at the Orpheum

Read "Live at the Orpheum" reviewed by John Kelman


It was the reunion nobody expected. After years of touring in circumstances less than ideal--and, for him, distinctly and increasingly unpleasant-- co-founder and only remaining original member Robert Fripp was as clear as can be that he was done with his flagship group King Crimson. A brief four-city, eleven-date 2008 tour--with a revamped version of the ...

Nguyen Le With Michael Gibbs & NDR Bigband: Celebrating The Dark Side Of The Moon

Read "Nguyen Le With Michael Gibbs & NDR Bigband: Celebrating The Dark Side Of The Moon" reviewed by Ian Patterson


It's a bold concept; take Pink Floyd's iconic Dark Side of the Moon (Harvest, 1973) and reinterpret it in a big band jazz setting.

EGG3: The Butcher Diarias

Read "The Butcher Diarias" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


The marriage of jazz--in all its incarnations--and metal may sound at first as a sacrilegious act but not for a creative musician in the vibrant Norwegian music scene. Norwegian metal bands defined the black metal sub-genre in the eighties and nineties.
