Gwilym Simcock: Perception
by John Kelman
It's rare when an artist emerges to accolades like “the most important new pianist on the British scene," and even rarer when such praise is justified. It's rarer still when it's an artist like Gwilym Simcock who, at twenty-six, has won a bevy of British awards despite coming to jazz from a classical background less than ...
Iain Ballamy Anorak: More Jazz
by John Kelman
It's easy to forget that many musicians who are pushing the boundaries of improvised music do have an understanding of the conventional jazz tradition. Whether it's guitar icon John McLaughlin and his fusion group The 4th Dimension reverently discussing Sinatra at the Sands (Reprise, 1966) in the tour bus or German bassist Eberhard Weber swinging Carla ...

Julian Arguelles: Partita
by Nic Jones
Partita, the sixth CD to come out under the leadership of Julian Argüelles, consists of fifteen tracks occupying less than 48 minutes, and over half of them don't even top the two-minute mark. Argüelles concentrates more or less exclusively on his tenor sax for the longer tracks, while the snippets are literally too short to merit ...
Chris Higginbottom: One
by Eric J. Iannelli
Drummer Chris Higginbottom's first album as leader is a straight-ahead quartet outing with Seamus Blake (tenor and soprano sax), Aaron Goldberg (piano) and Orlando le Fleming (bass). None of these four musicians are household names--yet, at any rate--but none are green by any standards. All have frequently gigged around their current stomping ground, New York, and ...
