Fabric Trio: Murmurs

Read "Murmurs" reviewed by John Sharpe


While it would be an exaggeration to suggest that there was a house style for the adventurous Lithuanian No Business imprint, the European saxophone trio nonetheless forms a significant strand in its output.

Sven Ake Johansson: Jazzbox

Read "Sven Ake Johansson: Jazzbox" reviewed by Mark Corroto

Like Joe Strummer and Mick Jones, Johansson's career has been one that has worked to challenge the language of American music. In The Clash's case, ...

Jazz: A Blessed Obsession

Read "Jazz: A Blessed Obsession" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Jazz listeners travel some strange and beautiful paths. It might have all begun with collectors trying to find a legendary Edison cylinder that New Orleans trumpeter Buddy Bolden--some believe to be the very first jazz musician--may (or may not) have recorded in 1904.

Alexander Von Schlippenbach: Schlippenbach Plays Monk

Read "Schlippenbach Plays Monk" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff
