Various Artists: Pirouet Jazz Compilation Vol. I: The Best Is Yet to Come
by Woodrow Wilkins
One good way to kick start a jazz collection for the beginner is to explore a compilation--if not the best of a particular artist, then perhaps the varied selections of multiple artists assigned to a label. In this effort, Pirouet Records' Pirouet Jazz Compilation Vol. I: The Best Is Yet to Come brings together 11 songs ...

Marc Copland: New York Trio Recordings Vol. 3: Night Whispers
by John Kelman
Some artists are so consistent that it's difficult to tag one release as better than another. Still, every now and then they manage to release career milestones that stand above the rest.

by Chris May
Question and Answer is the second in a glittering, altogether too infrequent series of albums guitarist Pat Metheny has recorded in acoustic trio settings, usually on the hoof and with little post-production, which act as a counterweight to his more elaborate work with larger line-ups.

Bill Stewart: Incandescence
by Michael P. Gladstone
Funk and jazz drummer Bill Stewart brings an unusual format to this effort. The use of piano and Hammond organ completes his trio, with Stewart offering a series of challenging compositions.
