John Kelman's Best Releases of 2017

by John Kelman
December 24, 2017

For those who may have noticed, there have been no best of lists coming from yours truly since 2014; sadly, the chronic health problem that has reduced my previous writing pace to a crawl continues without much respite. My best of the year lists have always been predicated upon having reviewed the releases chosen, and with ...

Antonio Sanchez: Bad Hombre

by Dan Bilawsky
December 12, 2017

Antonio Sanchez's drum score for Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) served as a game-changer in the film industry, completely upending notions of what a soundtrack can and can't be. But more importantly, it altered our collective viewpoint on what the art of solo drumming is capable of expressing. Pulling sound from nothing more than ...

Javier Girotto, Jon Balke, Furio Di Castri, Patrice Héral: Unshot Movies

by Neri Pollastri
November 22, 2017

Unshot Movies è opera di un quartetto multinazionale di grandi individualità che, oltre agli spazi strumentali, si dividono equamente oneri e onori compositivi (tre brani firmati a testa) e che, mettendo a frutto le loro diversità, realizzano un lavoro sorprendente a dispetto del suo impianto piuttosto tradizionale. Il disco, come si intuisce dal titolo, ...

David Murray Octets on Black Saint

by Patrick Burnette
October 11, 2017

Younger jazz fans may be only dimly acquainted with the Italian record labels Black Saint and Soul Note, but during their prime in the 1980s both labels released jazz that was adventuresome and challenging without losing touch with tradition. As such, the imprints offered a compelling middle way between the major label output of the time ...

Oregon: Lantern

by Mario Calvitti
August 4, 2017

Pochi gruppi, soprattutto nel mondo del jazz, possono vantare una tenuta così lunga come quella degli Oregon, che si sta ormai avvicinando al mezzo secolo di vita (il quartetto è stato fondato nel 1970). Lantern è il trentesimo titolo della loro discografia (contando anche un paio di antologie), pubblicato come i quattro precedenti dalla etichetta italiana ...

Giovanni Mirabassi: Live In Germany

by Neri Pollastri
July 25, 2017

Registrazione dal vivo effettuata ai Bauer Studios di Ludwigsburg, questo disco documenta un triplo omaggio tributato da Giovanni Mirabassi ad altrettante grandi cantanti: Edith Piaf, Mercedes Sosa ed Ella Fitzgerald. Si tratta senza dubbio di un progetto pienamente nelle corde del pianista, perugino ma francese d'adozione, che può lanciarsi in calde e raffinate rivisitazioni di alcuni ...

Oregon: Lantern

by John Kelman
June 26, 2017

Despite having to replace percussionists a couple of times since its inception in 1970, Oregon's otherwise consistent lineup of reed/woodwind multi-instrumentalist Paul McCandless, guitarist/pianist/primary composer Ralph Towner and double bassist Glen Moore remained unchanged for forty-five years--surely some kind of record in the jazz world. And with current drummer/percussionist Mark Walker joining the group for 1997's ...
