Chris McGregor: In His Good Time

Read "In His Good Time" reviewed by Chris May

Blue Notes: Before the Wind Changes

Read "Before the Wind Changes" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Non vi è dubbio che per catturare con qualche credibilità la potenza musicale dei Blue Notes il concerto dal vivo fosse l'unico momento valido. Non che gli album in studio manchino di sostanza, o di creatività; però la fragranza delle danze, unita alla spavalderia delle improvvisazioni al calor bianco, si libera davvero in palcoscenico.

Blue Notes: The Ogun Collection

Read "The Ogun Collection" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


In principio fu il Sud Africa; e la fuga dall'apartheid di cinque musicisti neri e un pianista bianco.

ReBop Union: Blue Notes

Read "Blue Notes" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

Continuate a criticare e sparare a zero sullo straight ahead jazz, figlio primogenito della rivoluzione bebop, definendolo una musica morta senza futuro? Eccovi allora servita una band, Rebop Union, un nome un programma, e un CD, Blue Notes, che è più di un richiamo ad una delle ...
