Mike Melvoin Trio: You Know

Read "You Know" reviewed by William Grim


"Adult songs for and about adults." That is Mike Melvoin's description of this trio album, and all of the prose poems that could be written about the technical brilliance of the performances contained therein would miss the essential truth of those six words. This is music of the highest quality with a seriousness of purpose that ...

Mike Melvoin Presents Dan Jaffe: Playing The Word

Read "Playing The Word" reviewed by Mark Corroto


A quick trip to Borders finds rows and rows of books about jazz history, biography and discography in the music section. Most of them will certainly help you fall asleep late at night. Give me the oral history of our music: the stories, the myths and the lies. Jazz is about the beat, and ...

Mike Melvoin: It's Always You

Read "It's Always You" reviewed by William Grim


Pianist Mike Melvoin's new CD, It's Always You reaches the same high standards of his last issue, Oh Baby. Building upon his trio with Steve Gilmore on bass and Bill Goodwin on drums, Melvoin considerably ups the musical ante by including legendary alto saxophonist Phil Woods.

Mike Melvoin: Oh Baby

Read "Oh Baby" reviewed by William Grim


Oh Baby is about as good a jazz piano trio album as you’ll ever hear, at least in this millennium. Mike Melvoin is one of the unsung heroes of the music industry, a prolific composer/arranger/producer for countless albums, television shows and films. As a pianist he’s logged more hours in the recording studio than just about ...
