Animation: Agemo

by Lawrence Peryer
One of the more intriguing albums issued in the first half of 2011, Animation's Asiento (RareNoise, 2011), has now begotten one of the best sets of the latter part of the year. Asiento was a live reimagining of trumpeter Miles Davis' seminal Bitches Brew (Columbia, 1970), recorded live in December 2006 as part ...
Various Artists: Miles Espanol: New Sketches of Spain

by Eugene Holley, Jr.
In the days of the so-called Young Lions jazz wave--which lasted roughly, from 1981 to 1992--instrumentalists and singers were all the rage. At the tail end of that period, South Carolina-born saxophonist Bob Belden was making waves for his comprehensive and compelling arranging chops. Over the last two decades, Belden has brilliantly re-imagined the music of ...
Jazz Musician of the Day: Bob Belden

All About Jazz is celebrating Bob Belden's birthday today! One of the most adventurous arrangers of the 1990s and 2000s, Bob Belden took the music of Puccini, Prince, and (with the most success) Sting, and turned it into jazz.

by Chris M. Slawecki
Much has been recently written about the graying" of jazz and the audience who listens to it, young musicians seem to continually discover (and rediscover) its enduring value--and not just the value of jazz as its own standalone genre, but the benefit of incorporating aspects of jazz, such as improvisation and arrangement, into music of every ...
Animation (Bob Belden - Tim Hagans): Asiento

by AAJ Italy Staff
Bob Belden e Tim Hagans, con il loro gruppo elettrico Animation, si prendono una bella licenza poetica e rileggono integralmente il capolavoro milesiano Bitches Brew in uno scenario modernissimo che prende liberamente dall'hip hop e dal drum'n'bass, senza perdere di vista le geniali soluzioni strutturali che Miles Davis aveva messo a punto proprio per quel doppio ...
Jay Anderson: Driving the Bus

by Ian Patterson
The term sideman" really doesn't do justice to bassist Jay Anderson, as his beautifully melodic, lyrical lines and in-the-pocket-grooves lift and shape any music that he is a part of. And while the term journeyman" holds some truth--Anderson has played with a huge number of people--one glance at his extensive discography reveals that most of the ...
Animation: Asiento

by C. Michael Bailey
Jam bands Phish and Gov't Mule have been making a cottage industry of covering a famous LP for their respective Halloween concerts (the bands' costumes," so to speak). In 2010, we were treated to Little Feat's Waiting for Columbus (Warner Brothers, 1978) and The Who's Who's Next (MCA, 1975), respectively. It is not ...
Animation: Asiento

by Mark Corroto
1969 was perhaps a watershed year for jazz in America. Trumpeter Miles Davis, the anointed pied piper, recorded Bitches Brew (Columbia, 1970). It was to be the beginning of jazz/rock fusion. Maybe better described as jazz/rock/soul/funk fusion. Miles wasn't one to miss out on trends. He saw the popularity of Jimi Hendrix and Sly Stone, with ...
