James Finn Trio: Plaza De Toros
by Dan McClenaghan
Listening to Plaza De Toros, you wonder what James Finn would have done in life if the saxophone hadn't been invented. The intrument seems made for him--full of passion and rage and tenderness, beauty and anguish, growls and gruff whispers and torrid wails... You just get the feeling the man's soul is coming out of his ...
The Julius Hemphill Sextet: The Hard Blues
by Germein Linares
The Julius Hemphill Sextet celebrates its namesake on The Hard Blues, a funky and groovy outing by this all-saxophone group. Released by one of the more ambitious labels currently on the jazz scene, Portugal-based Clean Feed, the album features thirteen of the late saxophonist's memorable compositions. As with the World Saxophone Quartet, drum and bass are ...
Z: A Jazzar No Zeca: The Music of Jos
by Germein Linares
At some point in the past, jazz from Europe, like wines from America, was second-class stuff, adequate, but somehow out of sync with the real thing. Nowadays, though, you'd have to be a complete loon not to appreciate the craftsmanship and excellence of European jazz (the same goes for American wine). Portuguese bassist Zé Eduardo, the ...
Ivo Perelman: Black on White
by Jeff Stockton
Ivo Perelman's playing is a squall, a storm that suddenly kicks up and moves through your life. Maybe you saw this one coming, but when it hits you're still caught off guard. Like his painting that equally inspires and defines his music, Perelman plays action saxophone, following his instinct up and down the keys, dripping thinly ...

Tripleplay: Gambit
by AAJ Staff
Tripleplay is, as the name implies, a trio. Chicagoan Ken Vandermark and Bostonians Curt Newton and Nate McBride coalesced once before for Expansion Slang (Boxholder, 2000), and Gambit marks their outspoken return; it's a document of explicit and articulate musical prose. Not for the weak of heart, as is evident in several places, but more restrained ...

The Nu Band: Live At The Bop Shop
by AAJ Staff
"Nu" is an apt term for the group leading this adventurous live outing. It's the first time these four veteran players have joined forces. It's only the second release on the new Portuguese Clean Feed label. And it documents the quartet's third (!) performance. Nu" indeed. But there's nothing new about these musicians. Each ...
