Anil Prasad: Inner Views, Borderless Perspectives
by Joe Lang
He may not be a household name and you likely won't hear him mentioned in music journalism classes alongside Robert Christgau, Lester Bangs and Anthony DeCurtis. But for those familiar with his work, Anil Prasad is considered among the most knowledgeable, provocative and forward-thinking music journalists in the world today. In 1994, Prasad ...
Dutch Jazz & World Meeting 2010: December 1-3, 2010
by John Kelman
Dutch Jazz & World MeetingAmsterdam, The NetherlandsDecember 1-3, 2010 As difficult as it can sometimes be to appreciate how far jazz has evolved since making its first infant steps in the United States at the beginning of the 20th Century, it's equally remarkable to consider the scene in Europe. Beginning as a relative ...

Enjoy Jazz Festival, Days 1-3: November 8-10, 2010
by John Kelman
Days 1-3 | Days 4-6 Enjoy Jazz FestivalMannheim/Heidelberg/Ludwigshafen, GermanyNovember 8-13, 2010 The pitfall of covering a number of festivals back-to-back is there's always the chance that a flight will be delayed, which means a missed train, which means arriving late at the next stop, and rather than having the opportunity to ...
Glass Hammer: If
by John Kelman
It's strange, perhaps, when a group actually transcends anything its biggest influence has done in decades, but that's exactly what the revamped Glass Hammer has done with If. With only keyboardist Fred Schendel and bassist/keyboardist Steve Babb (founding members, both) remaining after Culture of Ascent (Arion, 2007), If sounds the way Yes should sound four decades ...
Tommy Smith: Torah
by John Kelman
Since returning home after schooling at Berklee College of Music, vibraphonist Gary Burton's final ECM quintet and Whiz Kids (1987), and four Blue Note discs as a leader, Tommy Smith has virtually single-handedly placed his native country on the jazz map with his Scottish National Jazz Orchestra (SNJO). He's also become a powerful advocate on the ...

by John Kelman
With iconic progressive rock progenitor King Crimson's first batch of 40th Anniversary Series reissues, sole remaining co-founder, guitarist Robert Fripp--and, perhaps more importantly, Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson--embarked on a program that will, over the next couple years, bring Crimson's catalog into the 21st century, with double-disc reissues featuring (for the most part) brand new mixes in ...
Punkt Festival 2010
by John Kelman
The trials and tribulations of international travel--flight delays, missing or damaged baggage, and increasing limitations on said baggage--can be enough to frustrate even the most patient and seasoned world traveler. But despite an almost incredible confluence of problems flying to Kristiansand, Norway, for Punkt 2010, once there all such problems were forgotten. Punkt is simply too ...
Jeff Berlin: Still the Ace of Bass
by John Patten
Through the course of a four-decade career, Jeff Berlin has refused to end his musical quest. He crafted a popping, percussive style so thoroughly ingrained in the recordings of the 1980s, it's nearly ubiquitous. His work with Bill Bruford, whom he met during a stint with Yes, led to further innovations in playing.More recently, ...
