Andrea Longato: Thinking Heart
by Dan McClenaghan
First impressions of music--putting streaming aside--can come at you from the cover art. Guitarist Andrea Longato's debut release, Thinking Heart features a pair of rhinoceros standing side-by-side, mirror images inside a plain wash of olive green. Who would create cover art like that? And why? But the why does not matter. The image is ...
Jakub Paulski: Free' Odde
by Ian Patterson
After the genre-slippery trio album Preludium (Jazz Sound, 2020), which drew from Jimi Hendrix, Bill Frisell, Dmitri Shostakovich and Henrik Wieniawski--modernists all--for inspiration, Polish guitarist Jakub Paulski stretches his compositional palette in a more personal direction on Free' odde. In settings that switch between nimble trio intimacy and large (ish) ensemble ambition Paulski leans towards a ...

Dan Bilawsky's Best Jazz Albums of 2024
by Dan Bilawsky
Music that resonates with a listener is a rare gift for that receiver. And the artists who create it are to be admired for all that they produce and bestow. It's important to never lose sight of those truths and the power of aural art. I can't truly say that I believe that ...
I Dischi del 2024 secondo Ludovico Granvassu
by Ludovico Granvassu
Spesso molti articoli sulle “migliori uscite dell'anno" iniziano con una premessa quasi apologetica ("questi non sono necessariamente 'i migliori album dell'anno,' ma 'i miei preferiti';" “è tutto soggettivo;" “domani avrei scelto titoli diversi;" “ho potuto selezionare solo dieci album," ecc.)? Queste dichiarazioni sembrano riflettere il disagio del redattore, costretto a riassumere un vasto ecosistema artistico selezionando ...
Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2024
by Ludovico Granvassu
Have you noticed how many “best of the year" listicles start with an apologetic preamble ("these are not necessarily 'the best albums of the year' but 'my favorites';" “it's all subjective;" “tomorrow I might have chosen different titles;" “I could only select ten albums" etc.)? Those disclaimers channel the writer's discomfort of having to summarize a ...
David Bailis: Tree Of Life
by Dan McClenaghan
Some jazz artists create distinctive sound worlds with their instruments and the bands they put together. In the “guitarist as leader" genre--on the popular music side), think Link Wray, Dick Dale, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Robbie Robertson. In jazz, think Wes Montgomery, Bill Frisell, Pat Metheny, Sangeeta Michael Berardi. All of these musicians have a sonic ...
