Meet Kyle Simpler
by Kyle Simpler
I currently live in: Fort Worth, Texas I joined All About Jazz in: 2002 Why did you decide to contribute to All About Jazz? That's an interesting story. I discovered All About Jazz mostly by accident. During the early 2000s, I worked for a company that published newsletters, and one of my ...
Various Artists: Scarborough Jazz Festival Present: 2024 Live Festival Compilation
by Neil Duggan
In the late 1960s, record labels introduced inexpensive compilation albums that typically focused on specific genres. These collections strategically paired established artists with emerging talents. By doing so, they offered listeners an accessible entry point to discover multiple artists within a particular scene--essentially functioning as an early form of playlist. While such musical curation now primarily ...
Souvik Dutta: 20 Years of Abstract Logix
by Mike Jacobs
If you are a music lover, you may already know the name Souvik (pronounced show-vik) Dutta. Over the last 20 years, he has taken his Abstract Logix enterprise from a pre-YouTube streaming platform to a music retail website to a niche imprint to a respected independent label boasting a top-tier roster that includes the likes of ...
Una gemma Soft Machine per il quarantennale Cuneiform
by Mario Calvitti
Non sono molte le etichette indipendenti che possono permettersi di festeggiare il quarantesimo anniversario dalla loro fondazione; ancora meno quelle che possono parimenti fregiarsi di un catalogo di tutto rispetto, ricco di artisti e opere di livello assoluto. È questo il caso della Cuneiform Records, con sede a Silver Spring nel Maryland fondata nel 1984 da ...
Tony Monaco Trio and Mark Egan-Shawn Pelton-Shane Theriot: Three Is Not A Crowd
by Doug Collette
Say what we might about quartets, quintets, sextets and beyond, it might be fair to say the trio is the most potent instrumental lineup of them all. Three-piece ensembles hold a special place in the annals of improvisational music (and not just in the jazz milieu: the term 'power trio' was coined in the rock realm ...
Albert King: Born Under A Bad Sign (SACD)
by Doug Collette
Originally released in the psychedelicized year of 1967, the altogether earthy blues recording that is Albert King's Born Under A Bad Sign may have gone over the heads of those succumbing to flower power during the Summer of Love. Nevertheless, it made an impression on those who were learning to dote on the genre, many of ...
Blood Sweat & Tears: What The Hell Happened to Blood Sweat & Tears?
by Doug Collette
The title of this release might rightfully be applied at various junctures of Blood Sweat & Tears' career, but for the purposes of this project, it's particularly apropos to the group's State Department-sponsored tour of 1970 behind the Iron Curtain. Innuendo about this band's hip cachet or lack thereof arising from this jaunt--the main premise of ...
Karl Berger, Max Johnson, Billy Mintz: Sketches
by Mike Jurkovic
An exquisitely palatable sense of dance permeates the gregarious music bassist Max Johnson brings to the fore on Sketches, the second of two heady 2022 releases. Whereas the first, Orbit of Sound (Unbroken Sounds), teams him up with the rule-elusive sax and flute of Anna Weber and drummer Michael Sarin, Sketches presents a slightly more straight ...
Jeff Berlin: Making Jack Songs, Making Amends, Making A New Path
by Mike Jacobs
Chances are, if you know Jeff Berlin's name, you know at least some of the bassist's now-classic work with such seminal jazz/rock/fusion mainstays as Bill Bruford or Allan Holdsworth. If so, you may also know of his 10 albums as a leader or some of his many other sideman, supergroup and touring credits. If you're still ...
