Schlippenbach Quartet: Hunting the Snake

Read "Hunting the Snake" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

The '70s were a banner decade for free improvisation in Europe. Much of the free jazz of today--especially recent material from the New York avant/free scene--owes huge debts to early European improvisers. Pianist Alexander von Schlippenbach made great leaps at both the compositional level and the performance level, integrating a high level of structure into a ...

Sven-: Schlingerland/Dynamische Schwingungen

Read "Schlingerland/Dynamische Schwingungen" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

Solo free improv drum recordings tend to send most jazz fans scurrying for cover. But for the bold, there are some sweet exceptions. Sven-Åke Johansson's 1972 record Schlingerland presents just the man and his drum set, and it's a fascinating listen. Johansson seems intent on exploring the polyrhythmic possibilities of his kit, building up percolating rhythms ...

Leo Cuypers: Heavy Days Are Here Again

Read "Heavy Days Are Here Again" reviewed by AAJ Staff

John Tchicai-Irene Schweizer Group: Willi The Pig

Read "Willi The Pig" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

August 1975 heralded the first Willisau Jazz Festival in Switzerland. The performance by the quartet featuring Danish saxophonist John Tchicai and Swiss pianist Irene Schweizer made its way into a pair of microphones, and shortly thereafter onto a limited edition LP--which of course went right out of print. Free jazz afficionados interested in the active European ...

Nachtluft: Belle-View I-IV

Read "Belle-View I-IV" reviewed by Derek Taylor

by Derek Taylor

A caveat on this review- electronic music is neither my forte nor my passion. In fact, most of the time I can take it or leave it. Sound sculptors like Jim O’Rourke (who incidentally pens the liners on this disc) do next to nothing to excite my senses and the space explorations of Nachtluft drift into ...

Han Bennink: Nerve Beats

Read "Nerve Beats" reviewed by Derek Taylor

by Derek Taylor

Throughout his variegated career Han Bennink has carved out a place for himself as one of the crowning clown princes of creative improvised music. When he’s behind a drum kit the general rule of thumb is: anything goes as long as it’s laced with self-effacing humor. Even on early gigs, such as the germinal one he ...
