Read "Female Vocals 2017 I – Cynthia Hilts, Judith Nijland, Andrea Claburn, Sandy Cressman, Lisa Biales" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Take a day off and the recordings pile up and bury you. Female jazz vocals continue to dominate recordings with no indication on letting up. Most these recordings are very good and deserve recognition. So here is my picayune effort to address a few of them. Cynthia Hilts Lyric Fury

Howard Johnson and Gravity: Testimony

Read "Testimony" reviewed by Roger Farbey

He also appeared on Carla Bley's seminal 1971 album Escalator Over The Hill. Throughout his ...

Emanem Tidies Up

Read "Emanem Tidies Up" reviewed by John Eyles

Read "Time / Life" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala

Randy Kaye Quintet: Brooklyn 1967, May 24th

Read "Brooklyn 1967, May 24th" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Ha abbastanza dell'incredibile il destino di queste matrici: registrate, verosimilmente per finire su un doppio LP, nella primavera 1967, in studio, con materiale di sicuro interesse e adeguata resa fonica, sono rimaste invece nel fatidico cassetto (o scaffale che dir si voglia) per quasi mezzo secolo, uscendo a otto anni (nessun anniversario particolare, quindi) dalla morte ...
