Read "Troy Collins' Best Releases of 2016" reviewed by Troy Collins

Considering the quantity of recordings released in a year's time, attempting to compose a list mentioning every first-rate session would be difficult at best. These ten albums represent a fertile cross-section of some of the most compelling modern jazz issued in 2016. Many of the records listed ...

Read "La discografia completa di Gianni Lenoci" reviewed by Donatello Tateo

Generations Quartet: Oliver Lake/Joe Fonda/Michael Jefrys Stevens/Emil Gross: Flow

Read "Flow" reviewed by Karl Ackermann
