Dave Holland: Rarum X: Selected Recordings

Read "Rarum X: Selected Recordings" reviewed by Norman Weinstein


Bassist and bandleader Dave Holland's career is oddly yet movingly outlined in this collection. Since the artist is responsible for the eleven tunes culled from ten various albums, I have to assume there was a sound reason for neglecting to include anything from What Goes Around, his forceful 2002 big band session featuring many of his ...

Dave Holland: A Giant, and Still Growing

Read "Dave Holland: A Giant, and Still Growing" reviewed by R.J. DeLuke


Dave Holland speaks right to the point. Assured. Precise. Confident. The British accent of the England-born musician is perhaps a bit worn off from being in the United States for so long, since 1968 when the 22-year old relatively unknown bassist was called across the ocean to join Miles Davis at a time when the Price ...

Miroslav Vitous & Dave Holland

Read "Miroslav Vitous & Dave Holland" reviewed by AAJ Staff


Submitted on behalf of George Harris. Two bass players separated by mere months of age, both initially influenced by the LaFaro/Peacock school of thought, and both arriving at the burgeoning of a whole new era of jazz are featured on these ECM new releases. Both bassists took diverging paths and Universal Syncopations and Extended Play provide ...

Dave Holland's Opus

Read "Dave Holland's Opus" reviewed by Clifford Allen


Bassist and composer Dave Holland has led a 35-year career that many musicians would find enviable: working with Miles Davis' iconoclastic electric ensembles of the late '60s and early '70s; following that up with Chick Corea and Anthony Braxton in the cooperative ensemble Circle; making his first date as a leader with Braxton and Sam Rivers ...

Dave Holland Quintet: Extended Play/Live at Birdland

Read "Extended Play/Live at Birdland" reviewed by AAJ Staff


This group just doesn't put out a bad record, so it's hard to look at something new without some expectations. Bassist Dave Holland has led this particular quintet for six active years and four records, the latest of which is a live double set where the tunes stretch out around 12 minutes each. One would think ...

The Dave Holland Big Band: What Goes Around

Read "What Goes Around" reviewed by Jack Bowers


I've never been overly impressed by popularity contests, and as British-bred bassist Dave Holland swept the field in this year's Down Beat magazine critics' poll, I was thoroughly prepared not to like What Goes Around by Holland's thirteen-piece big band. Surprise! The album is far better than expected; in fact, I'd go so far as to ...

Dave Holland Big Band: What Goes Around

Read "What Goes Around" reviewed by AAJ Staff


With a musical force like bassist Dave Holland at the helm, it's hard to imagine a group going wrong. But his new big band has a singular problem: too many players. Thirteen musicians, each more than capable, join forces on What Goes Around, which features seven tunes composed and arranged arranged by the man himself. Unfortunately ...
