Dave Douglas - Freak in (2003)

Dave Douglas - Freak in (2003)

By Tom Johnson In many ways, I am still no closer to being able to put words to my feelings for this album. Instead, I find myself forcing words upon it, all of which are rendered meaningless because they really don't describe this album, only things that have come before it. It would be simple to ...

Susana Santos Silva Quintet: Devil's Dress

Read "Devil's Dress" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

The Devil wears many guises, as does the music on Devil's Dress. Trumpeter Susana Santos Silva spans a variety of styles and, while some songs contain a dark presence and power that perfectly suits Beelzebub's reputation, other songs have a brighter outlook that looks upward toward the skies, not downward toward Hades. While ...

This one, Brass Ecstasy, takes the ideas from brass bands and New Orleans bands of the past and moves the music into the present. Recorded in an informal manner, the music feels off the cuff, the sounds of ...

Curtis Macdonald: Community Immunity

Read "Community Immunity" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

"The Jazz Community" is a phrase that shows up in more than a few album reviews, but what does it really mean? Like-minded jazz musicians certainly gravitate toward one another, but they don't live in some massive, hippie-like commune where people play John Coltrane and Charlie Parker licks ad infinitum and bow down in front of ...

Dave Douglas - Moonshine (2007)

Dave Douglas - Moonshine (2007)

By Tom Johnson I really admire trumpeter Dave Douglas. Not only is he world-renowned as one of jazz's best, he has taken the high and difficult road by setting out to create his own little sanctuary for musicians, a label in Greenleaf Music where they get treated fairly and where listeners can feel the same. My ...
