Lookout Farm: At Onkel Po's Carnegie Hall: Hamburg 1975
by Chris May
Fasten your seat belt, please. Dave Liebman and Richie Beirach's club date with Lookout Farm barely lets up during an hour of ferocious jazz going on jazz-rock. It's in roughly the same bag as Miles Davis' post-Bitches Brew (CBS, 1970) electric albums, some of which had Liebman in the lineup. The tape lay in the vaults ...
Marc Copland: And I Love Her
by John Kelman
There was a time when Marc Copland was releasing multiple albums every year, sometimes as many as three or four, like in 2009, when the veteran pianist (who began his musical life as a saxophonist) released his second solo piano album, Alone (Pirouet); an intimate duo date with veteran bassist Gary Peacock, Insight (Sketch); and the ...
No Fast Food: Setting For Three
by Neri Pollastri
Ci eravamo occupati quattro anni fa del trio No Fast Food, recensendo il doppio CD In Concert (clicca qui per leggerne la recensione); adesso la formazione torna a pubblicare un nuovo lavoro, il terzo, anche stavolta su composizioni scritte dal batterista Phil Haynes. Come era da attendersi dai musicisti che lo compongono, il lavoro ...
Take Five with Ed Palermo
by AAJ Staff
Meet Ed Palermo Ed Palermo is an arranger, composer and alto saxophonist mostly known for his big band and their interpretations of the music of Ed's hero, Frank Zappa.

Sonic Explorations and Creative Improvisations at The Guelph Jazz Festival
by Dave Kaufman
In North America, there are over 100 annual jazz festivals. Only a small number of these festivals are devoted to the avant-garde, adventurous, and freely improvised music. The Vision Festival in New York City is perhaps the best known festival with its celebration of improvised music, dance, and poetry. There are a few others that are ...
Keith Oxman: Glimpses
by Neri Pollastri
Disco nato da un'incontro, cercato ma in parte anche fortuito, tra Keith Oxman, eccellente tenorsassofonista e didatta di Denver, e Dave Liebman, che per Oxman è sempre stato un dichiarato modello. La registrazione ha preso corpo dopo un breve periodo di lavoro comune, che ha permesso di cementare un'intesa peraltro non difficile da trovare, grazie alla ...
Erin McDougald: Outside the Soiree
by Angelo Leonardi
Grazie a una pubblica sovvenzione sul web, la cantante Erin McDougald è riuscita a pubblicare il quarto album, certamente il più brillante e rappresentativo della sua carriera. L'aveva inciso nel 2010 accompagnata da una formazione stellare comprendente Tom Harrell, Dave Liebman e Rodney Green. Ogni volta che era in grado di produrre il lavoro ...
Burton Greene / Damon Smith / Ra Kalam Bob Moses: Life’s Intense Mystery
by Mark Corroto
Let's give credit to whomever assembled this swinging free-improvisation trio. Sometimes, no, invariably, all great improvised music results from the reciprocal nature of the musicians: not something done in response to another (although it can be) but by some subconscious agreement made by the players. A fine example is Life's Intense Mystery by the trio of ...
Saxophone Summit: Street Talk
by Chris May
Since coming together in 1999 to celebrate the late-period work of John Coltrane, the aptly named Saxophone Summit has lost only one original member. Michael Brecker passed in 2007 and was replaced by Ravi Coltrane, who has in turn been replaced by Greg Osby. The other principals, Joe Lovano and Dave Liebman, are unchanged, as is ...
