Grdina Maneri Lillinger: Live at the Armoury
by Doug Collette
In recent years, Gordon Grdina has proved himself to be as passionate as he is prolific, not to mention versatile. Further affirmation aplenty of all those virtues, the forty-five minutes of Live At The Armoury stand as a showcase not only for the Canadian's adept management of shared moments of spontaneity, but also for that of ...
Sun Ra: Space Is The Place (Music From The Original Soundtrack)
by Doug Collette
The outlandish persona Sun Ra created and maintained for himself over the years may sometimes distract from the adventurous intent of the music he made. Yet it is testament to his vigorous loyalty to both the music as means of communicating his cosmic ideology and the basic tenets of his unconventional means of creativity that neither ...
Peter Case: A Million Miles Away - Take Yes For An Answer (DVD)
by Doug Collette
Peter Case A Million Miles Way -Take Yes For An Answer Passport 2020 Productions 2023 The dilettante music lover might wonder why there's a biopic/documentary available devoted to a living musician named Peter Case. Yet fans of the man have long known what a cursory glance at his Wikipedia page ...
Peter Lewis: Imagination
by Doug Collette
Peter Lewis' songs are among the most distinctive entries in the body of work by that great but woefully unsung San Francisco band of the '60s, Moby Grape. “Sittin' By The Window" and “Changes, Circles Spinning" illustrate his unique fingerpicking guitar style, the circular nature of which sounds as effortless as the slightly breathy phrasing of ...
Tim Carman Trio: King Comfy
by Doug Collette
On King Comfy, Tim Carman Trio plays with such irrepressible glee that it is difficult, if not impossible, to resist the vivacious charm of their musicianship. Over the course of the album's forty-minutes, its tongue-in- cheek title becomes as much (or more) of a direct reflection of the band's natural fluidity as its ingratiating cover photo. ...
Cimarron 615 and Poco: This Country Rocks!
by Doug Collette
When Poco formalized the marriage of country music with rock and roll via Pickin' Up The Pieces (Epic, 1969)--after the first convergence of the genres on the Byrds' Sweetheart of the Rodeo (Columbia, 1968), the quintet emphasized improvisation in a way that's been lost during the evolution of contemporary country (although it's now the foundation of ...

Boris Garcia: It's Time For Tea
by Doug Collette
Following Once More Into The Bliss (Dig Music, 2008) and Around Some Corner (Self-Produced, 2017) with It's Time For Tea, Boris Garcia now fully transcends any glib labeling such as “progressive bluegrass, “Americana" or “jamband." And that is notwithstanding the production on all three studio projects by a kindred spirit in the person of Railroad Earth's ...
Jorma Kaukonen: Live At The Bottom Line
by Doug Collette
Live at the Bottom Line represents a significant turning point in the history of guitarist, composer and vocalist Jorma Kaukonen. Occurring roughly a year after the release of his solo album, Blue Country Heart (Columbia Records, 2002), the concerts marked the advent of a new career phase for the co-founder of Hot Tuna, including regular touring ...
Lucas de Mulder, Towner Galaher and Anthony E. Nelson Jr: Organ Trios Redux
by Doug Collette
It's fair to say that the organ trio is one of the most durable instrumental concepts in the jazz milieu. It's equally reasonable to state it's one of the most malleable as well: apart from the indispensable Hammond B3 keyboard, accompanying sounds customarily come from a guitar or saxophone. Early practitioners of the concept such as ...
