Ahmad Jamal: A Quiet Time

Read "A Quiet Time" reviewed by Graham L. Flanagan

by Graham L. Flanagan
May 12, 2010

As one of the most highly influential jazz musicians on earth, pianist Ahmad Jamal enhances that sparkling reputation with his outstanding new studio effort A Quiet Time. The disc features two of the strong supporting players from his previous release, It's Magic (Dreyfus, 2008): James Cammack (bass) and Manolo Badrena (percussion), with Kenny Washington replacing Idris ...

The State of The Piano Trio 2010 (Pt.1): Helge Lien Trio and Trichotomy

by C. Michael Bailey
May 6, 2010

The piano trio is a durable and fertile format for musical expression. It is the jazz equivalent of classical chamber music--that is, music produced by a small number of instruments, small enough to be accommodated in close confines. While the piano trio can come in many flavors, the typical one is piano, bass and drums (aka ...

Neil Cowley: A Rock and Roll Take on Jazz

by Bruce Lindsay
April 26, 2010

It's not an observation based on hard evidence, but the jazz world seems to be more awash with piano trios than it has been for many years. Whether it's a whim of fashion, a response to economic recession, a reaction to the over-digitization of music technology, or something else entirely, is far from clear. But there ...

Cedric Caillaud Trio & Harry Allen: Emma's Groove

Read "Emma's Groove" reviewed by Jeff Dayton-Johnson

by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
April 11, 2010

What if bassist Cedric Caillaud's sophomore effort had been recorded at Rudy van Gelder's fabled Englewood Cliffs studio and released on Blue Note Records in 1959, rather than France in 2009? The sound of Patrick Cabon's piano might have been slightly less warm (succumbing to engineer van Gelder's tendency to render pianos with a metallic tinge). ...
