Swingadelic: Toussaintville
by Dan Bilawsky
It's tempting to say that the great Allen Toussaint is a musical phoenix who rose out of the ashes of a Katrina-ravaged New Orleans, but that's not really true. Toussaint wasn't reborn when his city was in ruins; people just started to wake up and take notice of him again in the wake of that tragedy. ...
Take Five with Aruan Ortiz
by AAJ Staff
Meet Aruan Ortiz: Named “the latest Cuban wunderkind to arrive in the United States" by BET Jazz, this classically trained violist and pianist from Santiago de Cuba, considers himself “a curious person who loves music," and portrays his music as an architectural structure of sounds, incorporating contemporary classical music, Afro-Cuban rhythms, and improvisation as primary material ...
Charles Lloyd: Quartets
by John Kelman
ECM's Old & New Masters Edition series was not just created to bring material back into print. Some has been available on CD before, but an even bigger carrot for fans of the label is material that has never been on compact disc, like bassist Arild Andersen's three 1970s recordings, collected on Green in Blue (2010), ...

The world of jazz officially went global in 2012, kicked the Grammy Awards in the shins, dealt with economic issues and Mother Nature, and found new ways to innovate in this social media and Internet-savvy age. There were ups and there were downs for both longstanding clubs and festivals, too. Here's a look at ...

Bill Frisell: Live Download Series #1-13
by John Kelman
DS#001-013 | DS#014-017One of the biggest problems facing contemporary jazz musicians is that they often have far more projects on the go than could ever be recorded and released commercially by conventional record labels--even small and relatively responsive indie labels.

Don Byron New Gospel Quintet: Love, Peace, and Soul
by AAJ Italy Staff
È tornato Don Byron: camaleontico, indefinibile, capace come sempre di regalare nuovi significati alla parola “contaminazione," che mai come nel suo caso deve essere instanziata e spiegata. È possibile che da ingredienti più o meno eterogenei come jazz, soul, leider tedeschi, musica classica, klezmer, rock, folk, ragtime, e funk si possa perseguire un percorso artistico-intellettuale in ...
David Gilmore: Numerology: Live At Jazz Standard
by Dan Bilawsky
Numbers and music are inextricably linked together. Numbers exist within every musical impulse and control the very nature of music through their connective ratios and relationships.
