Mark Helias: Atomic Clock
by Donald Elfman
Mark Helias--his big steady bass and organic, his compositions ever-changing--continues to set the standard for making music that bears shape and direction but also celebrates the freedom to improvise openly and... er... loosely. For ten years he and his powerful trio have refined and broadened the scope of this music so by now the players share ...
WeiSheng Lin: Gone with the Wind
by Donald Elfman
What a lovely, unpretentious jazz album this is! Gone with the Wind gathers a true fusion of Eastern and Western players, and yet there's nothing about the playing or tunes that drags that in the open.

by Donald Elfman

The reference puzzled me at first, but it seems to now refer to this sterling young pianist's ability to sculpt intelligent and vital improvisations. She is a confident, technically brilliant keyboard artist who uses a fertile imagination to create new ...
Mighty Quinn Records
by Donald Elfman
It is almost a truism that anyone who ever got into the jazz record business did it for the love of the music. Its practitioners and promoters do so despite the vagaries of the market and that market is, at this juncture, even tougher than previously. Yet, still, there are small and middling entrepreneurs that want ...
