John Coltrane: A Love Supreme: The Complete Masters
by Mark Corroto
For many a jazz fan John Coltrane's A Love Supreme is their personal desert island pick, the one recording they would not hesitate to live their days out listening to. Recorded on December 9, 1964, the session has endured as a document of the saxophonist's faith, as it was the proclamation of his rebirth from the ...
Girl Talk: Saxophonists Nicole Glover and Kirsten Edkins
by C. Michael Bailey

Georg Breinschmid: Double Brein

Georg Breinschmid è uno dei massimi contrabbassisti e compositori austriaci e questo doppio CD è la palpabile raffigurazione della sua tumultuosa vena creativa.

All Included: Satan In Plain Clothes

Matt Criscuolo: Headin’ Out
by Alberto Bazzurro
Un ben amalgamato, efficiente quartetto con la chitarra di Tony Purrone (suoi anche due dei nove temi in scaletta, “Karma at Dharma" e “R 510 Select") come strumento armonico, firma questo nuovo album (dovrebbe trattarsi del sesto) di Matt Criscuolo. Non aspettatevi novità sconvolgenti, o tratti di particolare originalità, ma una musica del tutto onesta suonata ...
