Wild Bill Davison: Wild Bill Davison: Pretty Wild & With Strings Attached

Read "Wild Bill Davison: Pretty Wild & With Strings Attached" reviewed by Mike Neely


Wild Bill Davison did not always front a go-for-broke Dixieland band playing his cornet above a high-octane rhythm section. Arbors Records has reissued two albums featuring Davison with strings. Pretty Wild and With Strings Attached, originally recorded in 1956 and 1957, reveal a lyrical, reflective Davison playing ballads and slow to medium tempo standards. This other ...

The Mahavishnu Orchestra: Birds Of Fire

Read "Birds Of Fire" reviewed by John W. Patterson


First off, I shall quote my earliest, “first impressions”, upon receiving this remastered re-release, as a special pre-release demo copy,“WOW!, WOW! and WOW! Superb redo of this classic!

Branford Marsalis: Contemporary Jazz

Read "Contemporary Jazz" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Although the penultimate release from Branford Marsalis was entitled Requiem, this outing for sure embodies a fitting tribute to Kenny Kirkland. The pianist died mid-recording of Branford’s last disc, shocking the young saxophonist and causing him to find a new rhythm section leader. Well actually Tain Watts is the center of any rhythm scene wherever he ...

Ornette Coleman: The Complete Science Fiction Sessions

Read "The Complete Science Fiction Sessions" reviewed by David Adler


Listening to the first moments of “What Reason Could I Give," the lead-off track on this valuable reissue, one is reminded of Ornette Coleman's pervasive influence on present-day jazz composition. The expanded ensemble, the busy rhythms percolating underneath sustained chords and melodic figures, the dream-like vocals by Asha Puthli: all of it brims with the kind ...

Herbie Hancock: Future Shock, Sound System, Perfect Machine

Read "Future Shock, Sound System, Perfect Machine" reviewed by David Adler


Herbie Hancock’s electronic experiments for Columbia are quintessentially 80s, every bit as much as “hair bands" like Poison and Winger. But Hancock’s vision, and that of his co-producer Bill Laswell, has stood the test of time in a way that 80s rock most certainly has not. Granted, most of the music on Future Shock, Sound System, ...
