Rob Garcia: Finding Love in an Oligarchy on a Dying Planet
by Luigi Sforza
Finding In A Oligarchy on a Dying Planet è un disco davvero interessante; medita sul destino del mondo, sulle relazioni sociali, sulle storture e le ipocrisie contemporanee, ma anche sulla possibilità di realizzare il sogno di vivere su un pianeta migliore. Chiunque lo associasse ai lavori degli anni '50 di Abbey Lincoln e Max Roach, ...

Keith Tippett Octet: Nine Dances Of Patrick O’Gonogon
by Duncan Heining
The Nine Dances of Patrick O'Gonogon is a solid gold delight. I have no idea, who Paddy O'Gonogon is or even if he exists outside the minds of Keith Tippett and Julie Tippett but I'd love to have a drink or eight with him. Seems like he knows how to have a good time.
Rosa Brunello Y Los Fermentos: Upright Tales
by Giuseppe Segala
La tradizione del contrabbassista-leader è una consuetudine che nel jazz ha dato frutti sapidi. Da Charles Mingus a Charlie Haden e Dave Holland, fino ai più recenti Chris Lightcap, Ben Allison e Michael Formanek, ma senza dimenticare la grande forza creativa di William Parker, il contrabbassista-leader ha sempre dato un'impronta forte all'impostazione di gruppi originali. Forse ...

US4: My Scandinavian Blues: A Tribute To Horace Parlan
by Chris Mosey
In the year of his birth Horace Parlan suffered an attack of polio that left him with a partially crippled right hand. He developed his own style of playing (involving a percussive left hand) and went on to become one of the most prolific and soulful pianists of the hard bop era. He played for two ...
The Blue Notes and the Brotherhood of Breath - Marching to a Different Drum
by Duncan Heining
Early one August morning in 1964, seven people crossed the border by train passing from South Africa into Mozambique. It was an unusual group of people--five black men, one white man and one white woman. Any “mixing of the races" was, of course, immediately suspicious in apartheid South Africa. The six men--Louis Moholo, Chris McGregor, Dudu ...
Mark Dresser Seven: Sedimental You
by Jerome Wilson

This project sees him leading and writing for a diverse group of familiar and relatively ...
Earprint: Earprint
by Jerome Wilson
Earprint follows the pattern laid down by several newer jazz groups in the last few years. They do short, pithy songs in the four to six minute range, sue choppy rhythms which draw a lot from rock and hip hop and construct intricate, slightly tongue-in- cheek melodies. This concept allows them to explore a large swath ...
