Mike Walbridge's Chicago Footwarmers: Crazy Rhythm
by Nic Jones
With music as venerable as this it's approach that's the key, and with these men the approach is nigh on perfect. Neither the dead hand of reverence or the corn that's often the undoing of traditional jazz performed decades after the event has a place here. Instead the music harks back to a simpler, more spontaneous ...
Ari Brown: Live at the Green Mill
by AAJ Italy Staff
Storico esponente dell AACM di Chicago, il sassofonista Ari Brown ha inciso pochissimo in veste di leader (l'ultimo suo disco, Venus, risale a dieci anni fa) ma ha collaborato con nomi di primo piano della musica afroamericana (da Elvin Jones e Braxton fino a B.B.King e Chuck Berry) e sul finire degli anni ottanta è entrato ...
Brad Goode: Nature Boy
by AAJ Italy Staff
Classe ’63, Brad Goode vanta un curriculum di tutto rispetto, che lo ha portato a collaborare con artisti del calibro di Curtis Fuller, Ira Sullivan, Eddie Harris e Jack De Johnette. È un brillante trombettista di formazione boppistica, che ama trarre dal suo strumento le inflessioni più morbide e delicate. Nel disco per la Delmark ampio ...
Brad Goode: Nature Boy
by Nic Jones
Trumpeter Goode is one of those musicians for whom the post-bop continuum fits like the proverbial glove. In the still far from overdone setting of trumpet and rhythm section he brings something fresh, to pieces such as the title track and “I Remember You." Both almost literally qualify for the term venerable and do indeed in ...
Nicole Mitchell’s Black Earth Ensemble: Black Unstoppable
by AAJ Italy Staff
Ce l'ha fatta a farsi faticosamente largo tra le definizioni di comodo/curiosità che hanno accompagnato i primi anni della sua carriera, Nicole Mitchell. Flautista, prima donna a presiedere l'AACM, la musicista di Chicago vede ora sempre più riconosciute le sue qualità di artista totale, e consapevole, impegnata a costruire delle narrazioni il cui significato va ben ...
Keefe Jackson's Project Project: Just Like This
by Jerry D'Souza
Why does tenor saxophonist Keefe Jackson call this band Project Project? Is it because he gives composition and improvisation separate identities and the merges them skillfully? That's just a thought. His ability to write and orchestrate music that sings and celebrates, and then have members of his band incise it with an unabashed sense of adventure, ...
Sabertooth: Dr. Midnight
by Jerry D'Souza
Few bands last fifteen years, let alone play at the same venue over that time. Sabertooth has done that at Chicago's Green Mill, playing the Sunday midnight to 5 a.m. shift. An odd time? Perhaps, but those who go to see them don't care. They listen and enjoy. And if the music on this CD is ...
Sabertooth: Dr. Midnight
by C. Michael Bailey
New York City has The Village Vanguard, The Blue Note and Birdland and can boast being home to scores of famous jazz musicians, but America's Second City, Chicago also has a storied history that includes the famous Green Mill Cocktail Lounge. Chicago also includes, among its children, some of the most distinctive jazz talent ...
Keefe Jackson's Project Project: Just Like This
by Troy Collins
Arriving in Chicago from Fayetteville, Arkansas in 2000, multi-instrumentalist Keefe Jackson has been steadily making waves in the Windy City's vibrant jazz community. His recent offering, the swinging and adventurous Just Like This, showcases Jackson's historically aware writing as well as the astute abilities of his collaborators. Ready Everyday (Delmark, 2006) was the adventurous ...
Keefe Jackson's Project Project: Just Like This
by John Barron
Just Like This, Chicago-based saxophonist/composer Keefe Jackson's second recording as a leader for Delmark Records, is a vivacious, provocative musical statement featuring the 12-member collective, Project Project. With hints of Charles Mingus and Duke Ellington, Jackson's compositions are ripe with thick chord clusters, swinging rhythms and jarring, yet lyrical melodies. Interspersed amongst orchestral flourishes and stand-out ...
