Bill Carrothers: Shine Ball

Read "Shine Ball" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il CD targato Fresh Sound New Talent che non ti aspetti. L'etichetta spagnola ci aveva abituato a produzioni aperte ai linguaggi contemporanei, ma tutto sommato solidamente inserite nella tradizione. Shine Ball è invece un album interamente costituito da improvvisazioni estemporanee. Nulla di scritto, la musica che si sviluppa interamente nel momento. E quindi, ampio spazio ad ...

High and Outside

Read "High and Outside" reviewed by Jeff Fitzgerald, Genius


Prior to 1920, during the Deadball Era of professional baseball, a pitcher was not only allowed to alter a new baseball when it came into play, but was expected to do so. A variety of techniques and substances were used to change the appearance or trajectory of the ball, from roughing it up with an emery ...
