Bley School: Where?

Read "Where?" reviewed by John Sharpe


Punningly recalling beloved British children's TV programme Play School, the name Bley School neatly encapsulates what is afoot on this album, representing an open-minded and irreverent fondness for tunes, especially those associated with the groundbreaking Canadian pianist Paul Bley.

Anett Tamm: a unique voice from the Baltics

Read "Anett Tamm: a unique voice from the Baltics" reviewed by Anthony Shaw

However this is a relatively select crowd, probably numbering in the hundreds, and with her taste in music veering wide of the mainstream, Anett Tamm is not ...

Re-Convening The Convention: jazzahead's Bold Comeback Plan

Read "Re-Convening The Convention: jazzahead's Bold Comeback Plan" reviewed by Josef Woodard

One can sense that balance in the convention/showcase festival's very branding, with its title stylized as in coolly lowercase composite word festooned with an emphatic exclamation point, and in the ...

Annette Peacock, Christina Galisatus, Paul Bley, Michael Wollny & New Releases

Read "Annette Peacock, Christina Galisatus, Paul Bley, Michael Wollny & New Releases" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu


The spirit of the masters, the roots of each music tradition, are like ghosts that accompany a musician's creative process, with more or less awareness based on the musician's disposition.

Read "From George Coleman to Meeco: Ten Overlooked Classics" reviewed by Chris May


The only thread running through this installment of Building A Jazz Library is that of unsung quality. No particular artist is spotlighted, nor any particular genre. There are simply ten, randomly selected albums, recorded in the US and Europe between 1953 and 2021, which show jazz off at its finest, but which, for one reason or ...
