Bob Downes: Bob Downes and The Alphorn Brothers
by Roger Farbey
This surely must be one of the strangest team-ups in jazz? A trio of German alpine horn players and British expatriate and jazz phenomenon Bob Downes. It may be an unconventional alliance, but somehow this album works at a very convincing level. Recorded in 2004 in his adopted home country of Germany, Downes wrote and arranged ...

Bob Downes: Deep Down Heavy
by Vic Albani
Quando AAJ mi ha spedito questo CD, non volevo credere che sarebbe stato possibile arrivare alla ristampa di uno dei CD più particolari, curiosi e per certi versi assurdi pubblicati nell'ormai lontano 1970. Fu un anno davvero particolare per la musica europea che, sin dai primi mesi, dimostrò di credere seriamente a una sorta di “cambio ...

Bob Downes Open Music: New York Suite
by Roger Farbey
British flautist/saxophonist Bob Downes recorded some compelling albums in the early '70s and then, coinciding with his permanent relocation to Germany at the end of the decade, disappeared from the UK jazz scene. The music didn't stop with his migration though, as he subsequently produced several solo flute albums for his own label, Openian.
Bob Downes Open Music: 5 Trios
by AAJ Italy Staff
Forse pochi ricordano Bob Downes, il virtuoso del flauto, polistrumentista e compositore. Fece parlare di sè nella prima metà degli anni Settanta per le sue pirotecniche incursioni, sotto il nome di Bob Downes Open Music, nei generi più disparati, incrociando le sue ance con la musica d'avanguardia e l'elettronica, anticipando movimenti che negli anni successivi si ...

Bob Downes: Open Music
by AAJ Italy Staff
Open Music è il disco di esordio del flautista inglese Bob Downes. Venne registrato e pubblicato nel 1969, lo stesso anno nel quale “Dream Journey," la lunga composizione che occupava il lato A della originale edizione in vinile, venne eseguita, a fine novembre, per il Ballet Rambert che l'aveva commissionata. L'album è decisamente più sperimentale e ...
