Drummers as Bandleaders: An Alternative Top Ten Albums
by Chris May
Drummers have been key members of every band which has changed the course of jazz history, from Max Roach with Charlie Parker to Elvin Jones with John Coltrane and onwards.

Like Idris Rahman, Nubya Garcia and Shabaka Hutchings (Sons ...
Binker Golding: Abstractions Of Reality Past & Incredible Feathers
by Chris May
None of the new, legion improviser-composer tenor saxophonists on London's underground scene are more accomplished than Binker Golding, and unlike many avant-garde players, Golding has a thorough knowledge of the saxophonists who preceded him.
