Little Women: Throat

Read "Throat" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Con una copertina molto à la ESP, l'etichetta di Giuseppi Logan e Patty Waters (ma anche di Ornette, Ayler, Sun Ra, e tanti altri), ecco un album che, come appunto quel glorioso modello, ha l'invidiabile pregio di non (voler) essere in alcun modo ammiccante, rassicurante, omologato; e invece, ruvido, magmatico, torvo, rovente, tra schizofrenia e turgore, ...

Marc Edwards / Weasel Walter Group: Blood Of The Earth

Read "Blood Of The Earth" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Double drummer-led free jazz sessions come with a price, and both aural and contemplative muscles need to be flexed. With Blood Of The Earth, from drummers Marc Edwards and Weasel Walter, the challenges for immersion in a sonic concentration of spontaneity and stamina. But this is not your father's retread of John Coltrane's Ascension (Impulse!, 1965). ...

Little Women: Throat

Read "Throat" reviewed by Nic Jones


Little Women spans the divide between the primitive and the sophisticated in a manner that's true of so few. For this, its second release, it's useful to offer pointers such as Albert Ayler and Peter Brotzmann (whose “Machine Gun" is particularly pertinent in terms of sonic assault), but they serve merely to place what this quartet ...

Forbes Graham: Magenta Haze

Read "Forbes Graham: Magenta Haze" reviewed by Gordon Marshall


Forbes Graham isn't hell-bent on taking the jazz world over by fiat. Then again, a sterling tone like Louis Armstrong's, a sense of stride and a sidewinder sleekness position him to do so. He brings spot-on timing, inherited from his key precursor, Don Cherry, into the icy age of post jazz--and swings, too, situated ...

POW! Darius Jones

POW! Darius Jones

The Brooklyn jazz scene has been a boon to New York, fostering a defiantly local culture that the city's biggest clubs (Blue Note, Vanguard, etc) sometimes lack. In Greenwich Village, you see top jazz stars deliver polished performances; at Brooklyn events like the New Languages Festival, you see scruffy young musicians experimenting, developing, emerging. Yet there's ...
