John Fedchock NY Septet: Live at the Red Sea Jazz Festival

Read "Live at the Red Sea Jazz Festival" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

"Bel festival, sole, mare": è quello che avranno pensato i musicisti guidati dal trombonista John Fedchock, quando hanno appreso di essere stati invitati dal Red Sea Jazz Festival (ad Eilat, in Israele, una cittadina turistica sul Mar Rosso). Certo non potevano aspettarsi un caldo che, durante le prove di giorno, faceva sciogliere le suole delle scarpe. ...

Read "I Will Tell Her" reviewed by Woodrow Wilkins

by Woodrow Wilkins

The title song and two-disc set are dedicated to a true love, but the music is clearly for the audience. I Will Tell Her, by trombonist Curtis Fuller, achieves plenty. The title song was written for Fuller's wife of 30 years, Cathy, who died before getting a chance to hear the music. The artist ...

3ology: With Ron Miles

Read "With Ron Miles" reviewed by Ken Waxman

by Ken Waxman

This album is appropriately titled as, in many cases, the addition of another musician raises the level of an entire band's playing. So it is on this session, where Denver-based cornetist Ron Miles joins Colrado's 3ology combo. Evident from the one track on which Miles isn't featured, 3ology--brothers Doug and Tim Carmichael (alto sax and bass, ...

Read "Live at the Red Sea Jazz Festival" reviewed by Edward Blanco

Ken Peplowski: Noir Blue

Read "Noir Blue" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

Ken Peplowski has much to say; not in the sense that he jabbers incessantly, as many men with horns (and embouchures for hire) sometimes do. However, in erudite and leaping ululations, and in warm, wafting glissandos he sings of the gaiety and sadness of life. This he does through clarinet or tenor saxophone, depending on the ...
