Globe Unity Orchestra & the Choir of the NDR-Broadcast: Hamburg '74

by Jerry D'Souza
Alexander von Schlippenbach wrote the first tune on this record as a radio project for the NDR Jazz Workshop in 1974. From his imagination sprung a conjunction of classical music and of jazz (as he and the Globe Unity Orchestra fermented it). It would have been so easy to let the two entwine and create a ...
Br: Medicina

by Alexander Vogel
Peter Brötzmann is a German saxophonist who has explored the intense and dissonant worlds of jazz. Many critics claim that his pinnacle recording was with his octet in the 1968 session Machine Gun, one of the loudest, most intense and just plain frightening jazz albums of all time. Even the loudest metal bands cannot match its ...
Br: Berlin Djungle

by Jerry D'Souza
Peter Brötzmann has that unique gift of getting together musicians who are compatriots in his mission to forge unusual permutations and sounds and continuously revitalise free music. His is an ongoing adventure that gets him to explore unusual avenues and, even where it seems that the path has been trodden in the past, he leaves behind ...
Jeff Parker/Kevin Drumm/Michael Zerang: Out Trios Volume Two

by John Kelman
When the most striking thing about an album is the packaging, you know you're in trouble. Music, at its best, should draw on a broad palette of colours, rather than being something that is starkly black and white, with nary the slightest shading of grey. Guitarists Jeff Parker and Kevin Drumm team up with percussionist Michael ...
Nels Cline/Andrea Parkins/Tom Rainey: Out Trios Volume Three: Ash and Tabula

by John Kelman
Guitarist Nels Cline sure does get around. In the past few months we've seen the release of the latest Nels Cline Singers disc, The Giant Pin ; a collaboration with Vinny Golia, The Entire Time ; and a quasi-ambient duet with bassist Devin Sarno, Buried on Bunker Hill. This, in addition to hitting the road with ...
Parker/Drumm/Zerang: Out Trios Volume Two

by Jon Opstad
The first thing to make clear here is that this recording is not for a general jazz audience. Those readers who get more than their fair share of white noise when the TV can't get a signal are not going to find a great deal to please their ears within the three quarters of an hour ...
Br: Medicina

by AAJ Staff
Peter Brötzmann delivers strong medicine. It took me a while to properly appreciate that after having been Machine Gun ned nearly to death back in the day by the German reed player's 1968 octet recording on FMP, an experience I earnestly recommend to newbies but not at all to the faint of heart. Brötzmann taught me ...
The Vandermark 5: Elements of Style, Exercises in Surprise

by AAJ Staff
Despite his ongoing prolific output elsewhere--including freshly reviewed efforts by Tripleplay and the Free Music Ensemble--adventuresome reed player Ken Vandermark seems to always find time for the Vandermark 5. And that's a very good thing. The artist may have one of the busiest performance schedules in improvised music (and some strong opinions on the subject, which ...
