Jon Batiste/Chad Smith/Bill Laswell: The Process
by Dan Bilawsky
If anybody saw this coming, they must to be clairvoyant. The Process brings together drummer Chad Smith, the hard-hitting, groove-making force that drives the Red Hot Chili Peppers, pianist Jon Batiste, the oft-cheery personality who bridges the NOLA-New York divide with his crowd-pleasing, accessible brand of jazz, and bassist-producer Bill Laswell, a prolific, genre-blind force with ...
Bernie Worrell: The Upper Air
by Maurizio Zerbo
I musicofili più esperti sanno bene che il jazz riserva sempre delle sorprese. Ricordate il romanzo di Tabucchi in cui si parla di una confederazione di anime diverse e contrarie, pronte ad aver la meglio nella psykè del protagonista? È anche il caso del pianista Bernie Worrell, co-fondatore del celebre gruppo funk Parliament-Funkadelic, nume tutelare dei ...

Raoul Bjorkenheim and eCsTaSy: eCsTaSy
by Dave Wayne
For me, guitarist Raoul Bjorkenheim is one of those musicians whose albums are always the subject of eager anticipation. His playing is both emotionally cathartic and intellectually gratifying. His highly-charged, utterly distinctive and immediately recognizable sound has been at the center of a number of fascinating cooperative groups over the past few years, including Scorch Trio ...
Peter Brotzmann/Sonny Sharrock: WHATTHEFUCKDOYOUWANT

This album is a release of archived material, recorded live in Luxembourg in 1987. Peter Brotzmann has been delving into his archives a lot lately and this release is one of the gems he found. Now on the Venetian label TROST, this collaboration between Brotzmann and guitarist Sonny Sharrock is widely available. Sharrock died in 1994 ...
Mike Rivard: Entranced By The Music

As globalization blends cultures and markets more and more everyday, it is only natural that artistic traditions and the artists that study them do the same. Mike Rivard is a leader in this regard, pioneering some of the most unique blends of musical styles and sounds today. Talking to him about his band Club D'elf and ...
Save the Date - Settembre 2014
by Luca Canini
Settembre è il mese del ripensamento. In questo caso doveroso perché si chiude un agosto strano e complicato per il jazz italiano. Un agosto che ha perso per strada il festival di Sant'Anna Arresi, posticipato in blocco a data da destinarsi, e gran parte di quello di Rocella, prima rinviato a dicembre (notizia diffusa attraverso un ...

Peter Brotzmann/Sonny Sharrock: WHATTHEFUCKDOYOUWANT
by Mark Corroto
Gone, now more than twenty years ago, guitarist Sonny Sharrock passing in 1994 seems like just yesterday. Maybe it is because his inexhaustible larger-than-life sound still permeates the music of today's free jazz community. This recording, from 1987 is a hidden gem and treasured fragment, perhaps another Rosetta Stone that allows listeners to appreciate how the ...
