Peter Evans Quartet: Live in Lisbon

Read "Live in Lisbon" reviewed by Troy Collins


Recorded at Portugal's Jazz em Agosto Festival in August of 2009, Live in Lisbon captures Peter Evans' longstanding quartet in concert, deconstructing a program of reconfigured standards--a regular feature of the New York-based trumpeter's oeuvre. Using classic American Songbook tunes as the basis for the quartet's freewheeling improvisations, Evans dismantles familiar melodies, harmonies and rhythms, rearranging ...

Tom Rainey Trio: Pool School

Read "Pool School" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Chiunque abbia avuto il piacere di vedere/ascoltare Tom Rainey [dal vivo o su disco, più probabilmente nei gruppi di Tim Berne] non avrà avuto difficoltà a riconoscere nel musicista californiano uno dei batteristi più originali e versatili della sua generazione - che pure di talenti dietro i tamburi ne annovera molti. Per il primo disco a ...

Angles: Epileptical West/Live In Coimbra

Read "Epileptical West/Live In Coimbra" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Gli Angles sono una delle band più emozionanti del jazz creativo di oggi. Politica, vibrante, libera, comunicativa! Se già il precedente Every Woman Is a Tree ci aveva colpito per la capacità di fare brillare di energie nuove un lessico condiviso come quello che deriva dalla grande stagione estatico-modale degli anni Sessanta, questo nuovo Epileptical West ...

John Hébert: Spiritual Lover

Read "Spiritual Lover" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Dopo la piacevole sorpresa di Byzantine Monkey - uno dei dischi che più ci aveva colpito lo scorso anno - il contrabbassista John Hébert accresce la propria discografia da leader con questo nuovo Spiritual Lover, per la portoghese Clean Feed. Rispetto al precedente lavoro, in cui Hébert aveva costruito un gioco di gruppo denso e stratificato, ...

Jorrit Dijkstra: Pillow Circles

Read "Pillow Circles" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Rotterdam, Lisbona, New York, Chicago. Come nella settimana enigmistica, unite i puntini e comparirà la scritta Pillow Circles. Il percorso immaginario lungo il quale si muove il disco inizia da Rotterdam, la città del North Sea Jazz Festival, che nel 2009 ha commissionato il qui presente lavoro al sassofonista Jorrit Dijkstra. Olandese lui, olandesi altri tre ...

Eric Boeren 4tet: Song For Tracy The Turtle

Read "Song For Tracy The Turtle" reviewed by Mark Corroto


When Eric Boeren's 4tet isn't playing the music of Ornette Coleman, they are playing the music of Ornette Coleman. That is to say, with a Dutch swing. The leader and cornetist began playing covers in the early 1990s, releasing several quartet recordings of Coleman's music with Cross Breeding (BVHaast, 1997), Joy Of A Toy ...

Fight The Big Bull: All Is Gladness In The Kingdom

Read "All Is Gladness In The Kingdom" reviewed by Martin Longley


Such an unwieldy band name and album title is almost perversely suitable for the ambitious music contained herein. Fight The Big Bull (FTBB) is, doubtless, dominant on the Richmond, Virginia alternative jazz scene, but possesses the powers to be equally noticeable on the much larger stage of, let's say, New York City. From this very place, ...

Fight the Big Bull: All Is Gladness in the Kingdom

Read "All Is Gladness in the Kingdom" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Dying Will Be Easy era stato il sorprendente album d'esordio che aveva rivelato una formidabile formazione riunita attorno alla figura illuminata del chitarrista Matt White. L'unico appunto mosso ad un disco pressoché perfetto riguardava la durata vinilica del lavoro (trenta minuti appena!). Matt White sembra aver colto la nostra implorazione e con questo All Is Gladness ...

Chris Lightcap: Deluxe

Read "Deluxe" reviewed by Stuart Broomer


Bassist Chris Lightcap released a CD called Bigmouth on Fresh Sound-New Talent in 2003, featuring a quartet with drummer Gerald Cleaver and the unusual frontline of two tenor saxophonists, Tony Malaby and Bill McHenry. Seven years later, Lightcap returns to the concept, with “Bigmouth" now the name of the band rather than the CD. In the ...

John Hebert: Spiritual Lover

Read "Spiritual Lover" reviewed by Stuart Broomer


John Hébert's skills as a bassist have been amply apparent for several years, in projects that have called on rock-solid tone, time and pitch to imaginative free improvisation. But Byzantine Monkey (Clean Feed, 2009) demonstrated his substantial talents as a composer and bandleader, fronting a quintet/sextet dense in reeds and percussion. On Spiritual Lover he's taken ...
