The Dan Cray Trio: Save Us!
by Jim Santella
Jazz's modern mainstream has to preserve tradition while exploring unique approaches. It's got to grow. A lot of folks translate the concept of uniqueness into something “far out" and “hip" and “never before attempted." But stretching the boundaries of jazz to its limits has drawbacks. Some push too far and become alienated. Some water down the ...
Tim Coffman: Crossroads
by Michael P. Gladstone
Add another promising trombonist to keep your eyes on! With his debut album, the Chicago-based Tim Coffman shows a keen sense of melody, arranging skills, and a style that is inspired by J.J. Johnson. Coffman's credentials indicate that he worked with David Baker and the Jamey Aebersold jazz education camps, as well as studio and show ...

Dan Haerle: Standard Procedure
by Jack Bowers
According to a press release accompanying this new album from BluJazz, the three musicians who perform therein are “living legends. Well, I wouldn't know about that, but they are pretty darn good. Pianist Dan Haerle, the group's nominal leader, plays marvelously, but no more so than bassist Bob Bowman or drummer Jack Mouse, whose decorous backdrops ...
Dan Haerle: Standard Procedure
by Eric J. Iannelli
For his debut recording on Blujazz, veteran pianist and erstwhile jazz professor Dan Haerle has taken a safe but not altogether predictable tack, opting for a set of back-to-back familiar standards that lend the album its title. “Body and Soul" gets a fresh intro of leaps and cascades. Haerle maintains this technique to greater and lesser ...
Chris Winters: Impressions
by Stephen Latessa
The Blujazz web site categorizes guitarist Chris Winter as a “hybrid improvisational artist, and indeed, there are strains of blues, soul, and funk to be found alongside the jazz elements on Impressions. The music, composed by Winters, is smooth, assured, and flowing. Throughout, Winters proves to be a more than able technician. He plays ...
