Miles Davis' Rubberband, Kuba Wiecek Trio & KaMaSz
by Maurice Hogue
Two rather contrasting recordings highlight this episode: Dan Weiss with his trio augmented by a second bassist and Rubberband, the once-shelved and now revived release from Miles Davis which was recorded after he had left Columbia. On Weiss' album, he displays the chops (often with heavy rock influences) that make him such a high-in-demand player, while ...

Of the threesomes, first timers are Gentiane MG ...
Anti-Rubber Brain Factory & Sameer Gupta
by Maurice Hogue
This episode features two extremely original albums from France, and they couldn't be more different. Guitarist Marc Ducret tackles Shakespeare on his Lady M. He's not the first to look to the Bard of Avon for inspiration (Duke Ellington and Cleo Laine come to mind immediately), but he may be the first one to frame one ...
