Chris Pasin: Ornettiquette

by Chris Mosey
It's amazing how quickly what was billed as the future of jazz became its past. In 1959 when saxophonist Ornette Coleman released his third album, he wanted to call it Focus On Sanity. Instead, at the insistence of Atlantic producer Nesuhi Ertegun, it was portentously titled The Shape Of Jazz To Come. Other musicians took heed ...
Phil Allen's Concert Jazz Band: North Greenbush Blues

by Jack Bowers
North Greenbush Blues marks the recorded debut of Indiana-born, New York State-based trombonist Phil Allen's glove-tight and remarkably robust Concert Jazz Band. The album has many pleasures, but what stands out most are Allen's impressive charts, which give the ensemble ample sustenance and reason to shine. Allen wrote six of the album's nine tunes and arranged ...

Chris Pasin: Detour Ahead

by AAJ Italy Staff
Detour Ahead segna il ritorno sulle scene, e paradossalmente anche l'esordio come leader, di Chris Pasin, trombettista di Chicago che diversi anni fa preferì allontanarsi dalla carriera jazzistica per dedicarsi completamente alla famiglia. Scelta lodevole, anche se (vista dalla parte dell'ascoltatore) si è trattato di un peccato, dal momento che questa registrazione è un'autentica delizia. Si ...
Chris Pasin: Detour Ahead

He's a graduate of New England Conservatory's prestigious jazz program and played with many of the greats, before leaving jazz for several years. To celebrate his return, and perhaps give a glimpse of more good things to come he's brought out a never ...
