Live From Bilston: Samantha Fish, Jah Wobble & The Magic Band
by Martin Longley
Samantha Fish/Laurence Jones The Robin R&B Club November 11, 2015 The blues has a youthful future, across both sides of the Atlantic. Singer and guitarist Laurence Jones is the latest upstart to stir the UK scene, possessing a very 1960s sensibility, as if he's a throwback to the scene ...
Tarana: A Fire Of Flowers Grows Around Us
by Dave Wayne
Musical explorations never cease. Jazz musicians are, by nature, curious and intelligent people who listen to and--for more than just economic imperatives--play all sorts of music. The farther musicians stray from their “home base," be it jazz or whatever, the deeper and richer their music becomes. The members of Tarana, Ravish Momin and Rick Parker, are ...
Blue Buddha: Blue Buddha
by Giuseppe Segala
Blue Buddha riunisce due calibri da novanta della scena contemporanea come Dave Douglas e Bill Laswell. Gli accosta un giovane batterista e compositore che si distingue tra le nuove personalità per caratura e ingegno, autore già in prima persona di lavori notevoli, tra cui That / Not e Alloy. Ma pure coprotagonista con Roscoe Mitchell dello ...
John Zorn and Bill Laswell at The Stone
by Tyran Grillo
John Zorn/Bill Laswell The Stone New York, NY June 25, 2015 Associations between composer John Zorn and bassist Bill Laswell go back at least to the formation of their band Painkiller (with drummer Mick Harris) in 1991, and it was trailing the shadows of that potent abyss that they reconvened for ...
Bob Belden Animation: Machine Language
by Vincenzo Roggero
Intorno all'anima, ai pensieri, ai sogni e ai sentimenti delle macchine sono stati versati fiumi d'inchiostro, così come più di un musicista ha cercato di fornire la personale interpretazione del problema. L'eclettico sassofonista, compositore, arrangiatore Bob Belden, prematuramente scomparso il maggio scorso per problemi cardiaci, ci lascia con Machine Language l'ultima testimonianza della sua arte, attraverso ...

Gent Jazz Festival 2015: Part 1
by Martin Longley
Gent Jazz Festival Bijloke Gent, Belgium July 10-12, 2015 Part 1 | Part 2 A bold beginning was made with the festival's opening night, perhaps concentrating on some of director Bertrand Flamang's personal favourites. This evening was never destined to be a sell-out session, but ...

Milford Graves/Bill Laswell: Space / Time - Redemption
by John Sharpe
Drummer Milford Graves boasts a pedigree stretching back to the first tide of Free Jazz in the 1960s, most prominently as the drummer for the storied New York Art Quartet. His infrequent forays onto disc since have resulted in underground classics such as Nommo (SRP, 1966) with pianist Don Pullen and Babi Music (IPS, 1976) with ...
Milford Graves/Bill Laswell: Space / Time - Redemption
by Dave Wayne
An unlikely duo, yet-somehow-also the perfect duo, electric bassist Bill Laswell and multi-percussionist Milford Graves generate all sorts of musical fire on Space -Time: Redemption. Once again, TUM Records' lush packaging includes numerous photos, copious liner notes, and some uncannily prescient poetry by longtime Laswell associate Umar Bin Hassan. One of the photos shows Graves adjusting ...
