Dan Raphael / Rich Halley / Carson Halley: Children of the Blue Supermarket

Read "Children of the Blue Supermarket" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

According to John the Evangelist, in principio erat verbum--or, as the Latin from his most celebrated introduction to his Gospel--states, “At ...

Lineage and Vision Festival 16: June 5-11

So much of our experience is increasingly place-less as franchise smiles crafted by human resources consultants greet us daily no matter what the biome or weight of memory.

Landrus is equally adept as an outside player but delves, on this album, into more conventional persuasions, garnering sympathetic support from his venerable band mates.

Read "Monk's Music" reviewed by Chris May

by Chris May

Many albums in the Original Jazz Classics reissue series include alternate takes or tracks recorded for, but ultimately not included on, the original vinyl LP. The label's 2011 Remasters edition of pianist Thelonious Monk's Monk's Music (Riverside, 1957) is no exception--but is something of a first, in that “Blues For Tomorrow," the 13:33 minute bonus track, ...

Lions in Winter

Read "Lions in Winter" reviewed by Greg Simmons

by Greg Simmons

Recently passed jazz greats, saxophonist James Moody and pianist Hank Jones, were both fortunate enough to be making solid, vital recordings right up to the ends of their lives. Moody's 4A (IPO, 2009) and 4B (IPO, 2010) were as well-played as any he ever recorded, and Jones, who was still active in his last year at ...
