Jimi Hendrix Experience: Live At The Hollywood Bowl – August 18, 1967

Read "Live At The Hollywood Bowl – August 18, 1967" reviewed by Doug Collette


The archiving of Jimi Hendrix' vault has apparently reached the point where what happens on a given release is less important than when it happened. So it is with Live At The Hollywood Bowl--August 18, 1967, the setlist for which is similar to that of his ground-breaking June '67 performance at Monterey Pop, one ...

Hasaan Ibn Ali: Reaching For The Stars: Solos/Duos/Trios

Read "Reaching For The Stars: Solos/Duos/Trios" reviewed by Doug Collette


Since its inception in 2010, Omnivore Recordings has applied a most stringent set of standards to its archival efforts devoted to the disparate likes of Merle Haggard, Maynard Ferguson and the Posies (and no less so in the occasional preparation and release of new content such as Americana master Peter Case). The label has ...

Bass Extraordinaire: John von Seggern / Bruno Raberg / Christopher Hale

Read "Bass Extraordinaire: John von Seggern / Bruno Raberg / Christopher Hale" reviewed by Doug Collette


In both its acoustic and electric form, the bass is too often overlooked in the context of musical performances both live and in studio. Yet it is this instrument that arguably confronts the greatest challenge of all in navigating arrangements and musicianship: specifically, to establish and maintain a middle ground of melody and rhythm that simultaneously ...

Wolfgang Muthspiel / Benjamin Koppel / Scott Colley / Brian Blade: Complements Incarnate

Read "Wolfgang Muthspiel  / Benjamin Koppel / Scott Colley / Brian Blade: Complements Incarnate" reviewed by Doug Collette


The inveterate musiclover knows all too well how the attraction(s) of certain musician(s) names invariably leads to the satisfaction of hearing them, live or on record, as leaders or accompanists.

The Doors: Live At The Matrix 1967: The Original Masters

In a most practical sense. Reliably sourced from the master tapes this time--in contrast to the 2008 release--Live At The Matrix 1967 : The Original ...

Organ Fairchild: Leisure Suit

Read "Leisure Suit" reviewed by Doug Collette


Nattily attired as Organ Fairchild is in the cover photo of Leisure Suit, the last word in the album title would seem to take the form of a verb rather than a noun. The fast-evolving ensemble strives for and reaches a playful atmosphere on this, their sophomore studio outing, but that's hardly the extent of their ...

Steve Miller: J50: The Evolution of The Joker (2CD)

Read "J50: The Evolution of The Joker (2CD)" reviewed by Doug Collette


There is no shortage of throwaway songs on Steve Miller Band albums early--Brave New World (Capitol, 1969)), Your Saving Grace (Capitol,1969)--or late--Circle of Love (Capitol, 1981), Abracadabra (Capitol, 1982). But there had never been a piece of fluff positioned as the centerpiece of one of his long-players until The Joker (Capitol, 1973) came out,
