Marion Brown: Live in Europe 1968 & 1972
by Mark Corroto
There was not much room in the crowded landscape of the 1960s avant-garde for everyone to receive equal attention. Critics and listeners alike gravitated toward the towering presence of John Coltrane, whose music dominated both record sales and jazz journalism. As a result, visionary figures such as Eric Dolphy, Albert Ayler and Marion Brown often found ...

by Mark Corroto
Jul Fuel unfolds more like a tale of three cities than a singular statement--especially when the tracks are experienced in album order.

At its core, however, Jul Fuel revolves around German improviser Axel Dörner, even ...
Giacomo Merega: Opus Dichotomous
by Mark Corroto
