Ryan Keberle, Frank Woeste: Reverso: Suite Ravel

by Alberto Bazzurro
Ryan Keberle, trentasettenne trombonista dell'Indiana, e Frank Woeste, quarantaduenne pianista di Hannover, il primo con alle spalle rendez-vous piuttosto variopinti (da David Bowie a Maria Schneider, da Wynton Marsalis a Woody Allen), il secondo ormai da una ventina d'anni inserito nel milieu jazzistico francese, si abbinano a una coppia di musicisti che sembrano in qualche modo ...
King Crimson: Live In Vienna, December 1st, 2016 (UK Edition)

by John Kelman
Another year, another live King Crimson set? True, perhaps.

Tommy Igoe and the Birdland All Stars at the Sandler Center for the Arts

by Mark Robbins

John Kelman's Best Releases of 2017

by John Kelman
For those who may have noticed, there have been no best of lists coming from yours truly since 2014; sadly, the chronic health problem that has reduced my previous writing pace to a crawl continues without much respite. My best of the year lists have always been predicated upon having reviewed the releases chosen, and with ...
