Sylvain Del Campo: Eclipsis
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Saxophonist Sylvain del Campo's quartet is the sort of group favored by Aphrodite Records label boss Jean-Jacques Grabowski: earnest journeymen who, in the midst of uniformly good performances, manage from time to time to pull off remarkable moments.For del Campo, the remarkable moments begin early on Eclipsis, with a frenetic sax-plus-drums passage midway through ...
Stephane Morilla 5tet: Facon Puzzle
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
These are boom times indeed for fans of the Fender Rhodes in jazz. You have Craig Taborn in Chris Potter's Underground and Uri Caine in Dave Douglas's Quintet. Not so far back, we were even treated to six newly issued hours of Keith Jarrett's gloriously mind-bending early experiments with the instrument with Miles Davis on The ...
Olivier Robin / Sebastien Jarrousse Quintet: Dream Time
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Since Van Halen II (1979), if not before, the sophomore curse has beset bands' second albums.

Bruno Thieblemont Group: Septieme couleur
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Bruno Thieblemont is a classically trained musician, having studied the oboe and percussion, and played with various chamber music and orchestral ensembles in France. He's led a double musical life, though, playing jazz vibes and forming his own quintet in 2006. The quintet's début is Septième couleur.On balance, the album hews a middle path ...
Alex Terrier Quintet: Stop Requested
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Saxophonist George Garzone has high praise for his protégé Alex Terrier, and indeed the young saxophonist exhibits many of the same qualities associated with his one-time teacher: a compelling logic in the construction of his long solos accompanied by a ready recourse to the outer reaches of the vocabulary that both players have inherited ...
