by John Sharpe

Charles Tyler: Eastern Man Alone
by AAJ Italy Staff
Charles Tyler fa parte di quella schiera di musicisti che hanno partecipato alla rivoluzione della New Thing senza assurgere alla statura di eroi o leggendari protagonisti, ma lavorando piuttosto nell'ombra o a fianco di stelle di prima grandezza. Come successe al nostro, che incontrò Albert Ayler a Cleveland lo seguì fino a New York entrando nella ...
Russ Gershon: Time Traveler, Four Million Years Later
by Ian Patterson
Twenty-five years is a long time in jazz. When saxophonist/composer/bandleader Russ Gershon founded the Either/Orchestra back in 1985, trumpeter Miles Davis was on the crest of his jazz/funk comeback wave, and the so-called Young Lions movement fronted by trumpeter Wynton Marsalis was coming into prominence, just as Weather Report--the last of the great '70s fusion bands--was ...

David S. Ware and Joe Rigby: Loft Jazz Soloists
by Clifford Allen
In the void left by the deaths of saxophonists John Coltrane and Albert Ayler, among the cheap rents in Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn offering space to artists and musicians, the presence of affordable loft spaces birthed an intersection of jazz scenes in the 1970s. The music itself favored a variety of approaches, mostly built on the ...
Charles Tyler: Charles Tyler Ensemble
by AAJ Italy Staff
E' inevitabile ricordare Albert Ayler ascoltando questo disco. Il sax dolorante, l'astrattismo imperante, il ricorso agli strumenti ad arco, il parossismo della cantabilità tematica accostata all'esplosione free non lasciano dubbi. E infatti Tyler fu per anni, e anche in molti celebri dischi, parte integrante della cerchia dello sfortunato Albert. Un gigante che a quanto pare ne ...
