Gov't Mule: Live At Roseland Ballroom

Read "Live At Roseland Ballroom" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

The previously long out-of-print Live at Roseland Ballroom stands as a template for Gov't' Mule past and present and for the foreseeable future. Most of the material included on this welcome reissue was a means to the end of lengthy improvisations, but also remains an integral part of the group's repertoire even today, with the group ...

Ornette Coleman: Sound Grammar

Read "Sound Grammar" reviewed by Clifford Allen

by Clifford Allen

It's been a decade since the last bounty of Ornette recordings. 1995-96 saw releases from his free-funk mélange Prime Time; a robust quartet with pianist Geri Allen and bassist Charnett Moffett; and duets with pianist Joachim Kühn, a German free music architect. Indeed, the past three decades have seen an inordinate amount of change for Coleman's ...

Medeski, Scofield, Martin & Wood: Out Louder

Read "Out Louder" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

During the early 1990s, Medeski, Martin & Wood conjured up a heady, groove-oriented style that coincided with the increasingly rhythm-oriented approach John Scofield was developing. A year before the trio made the leap to Blue Note, those parallel paths intersected in 1998: MMW accompanied the guitarist in the studio on A Go Go (Verve), and they ...

Medeski, Scofield, Martin & Wood: Out Louder

Read "Out Louder" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

It's been nearly a decade since John Scofield hooked up with jam band favorites Medeski, Martin and Wood for A Go Go (Verve, 1998), an album that singlehandedly placed the guitarist on the radar of a younger and enthusiastic demographic. Given that Scofield wrote all the material, A Go Go was unequivocally his project. On the ...

Medeski, Scofield, Martin & Wood: Out Louder

Read "Out Louder" reviewed by Troy Collins

by Troy Collins

A far cry from this quartet's previous encounter, Out Louder is a summit meeting for all four players. Where 1998's A Go Go (Verve) found the trio performing as guitarist John Scofield's backing band, here the working relationship is far more collaborative. The added grit and gristle, along with the more extreme outside elements, demonstrate Medeski ...

Ornette Coleman: Sound Grammar

Read "Sound Grammar" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

by Dan McClenaghan

In the beginning of free jazz, there was Ornette Coleman. Actually, the alto saxophonist was the beginning of free jazz. His 1959 Atlantic recording The Shape of Jazz to Come followed on the heels of a couple of innovative smaller label outings that didn't make a splash at the time. Many musicians have followed Coleman down ...
