Weather Report: Forecast: Tomorrow
by AAJ Italy Staff
Questo splendido cofanetto che traccia in maniera esaustiva la carriera dei Weather Report, ha avuto una gestazione lunga e tribolata. Se ne parlava da parecchi anni e la mania di perfezionismo di Joe Zawinul ha rimesso in discussione parecchie volte le scelte dei curatori. Ma finalmente il box è stato distribuito e abbiamo la possibilità di ...
Tony Bennett: Duets: An American Classic
by Ernest Barteldes
Tony Bennett, a Queens-born singer, celebrates his 80th with his voice sounding as great as it has been for years; on Duets, he revisits some of his classics with a group of friends and admirers. Some of the guest appearances on these tracks are not really surprising, like Barbra Streisand's on “Smile." Celine Dion is one ...
Anjani: Blue Alert
by Jim Santella
With its program of popular songs by Leonard Cohen and Anjani Thomas, Blue Alert settles in gently for an audience in love. Don't look for sheets of riveting sound to fill the room with propulsive action, or thunderous backbeats to shake your bones in a fascinating rhythmic groove. This is not that kind of album. Anjani's ...
The Bad Plus: Suspicious Activity?
by AAJ Italy Staff
Jazz o non jazz, i Bad Plus sono un trio che suona il jazz come se suonasse il rock. Un bassista che spara bordate come se stesse al fronte, un batterista che spacca in due il ritmo, un pianista virtuoso ed elegante che cita prima Satie e l'avanguardia per poi mettere tutto in discussione con un ...

The Derek Trucks Band: Songlines
by Jim Santella
Derek Trucks has a powerhouse blues guitar manner that just won't let go. His lyrical message grabs you and holds on tight while his band pursues its contemporary aims with confidence. He's highly expressive, and yet everything he has to say through his guitar centers on the story at hand. He's not about flash and mesmerizing ...
The Derek Trucks Band: Songlines
by Doug Collette
Songlines will be a likely candidate for Best of 2006 lists in any number of genres--jazz, rock, jam band--and not just because it continues the eclectic course set by Derek Trucks since he began recording. (Covers included here range from Rahsaan Roland Kirk to Taj Mahal and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.) This album completely captures the ...
Bela Fleck & The Flecktones: The Hidden Land
by Doug Collette
The Hidden Land, the first album of new material recorded in the wake of a year off the road, is the logical extension of the Flecktones' recent activities. It makes sense to go back to the basics and start afresh. Also, after the eclectic complexity and artful ambitions that produced the last Bela Fleck/Flecktones album (the ...
Aa.Vv.: Progressions - 100 Years of Jazz Guitar
by AAJ Italy Staff
La chitarra, nelle sue varianti acustiche ed elettriche, è certamente lo strumento musicale che ha subito l'evoluzione piò vistosa negli ultimi cento anni. Da strumento di accompagnamento, certamente secondario rispetto al pianoforte, è diventata, dagli anni quaranta in poi, anche uno strumento solista in grado di rappresentare al meglio le pulsione espressive delle giovani generazioni. La ...
