Andrew Hill: Compulsion!!!!!

Read "Compulsion!!!!!" reviewed by Norman Weinstein


The five exclamation marks following the word Compulsion are completely appropriate for a title. Of all the distinguished albums of Andrew Hill's career as a pianist/composer, this is arguably the most passionately executed. The monumentality of this recording can best be realized by looking at its recording date of 1965. Coltrane was leaving his classic quartet ...

Scott Colley: Music Architect

Read "Scott Colley: Music Architect" reviewed by R.J. DeLuke


Scott Colley can be found adding his big-toned, always appropriate contra bass to a number of settings. He's been a staple on the New York music scene for some time now, with older established musicians like Pat Metheny, Andrew Hill, John Scofield, Joe Lovano, Michael Brecker, Clifford Jordan, Herbie Hancock and many, many more. But also ...

Read "Mosaic Select 23: Andrew Hill - Solo" reviewed by Matthew Miller


The three discs that comprise this fascinating box set reissue capture pianist Andrew Hill at a unique time in his tumultuous career. After a series of successes for Blue Note in the '60s, Hill--a man as elusive as his inscrutable music--in essence disappeared from the New York scene, taking a teaching position upstate and playing, as ...

Andrew Hill: Smoke Stack

Read "Smoke Stack" reviewed by John Kelman


Emerging at the beginning of the '60s, Andrew Hill was always difficult to pigeonhole. The pianist was too aligned with mainstream harmony to be considered avant garde, too complex a writer to be considered free, too abstruse a player to be considered mainstream.
