Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey: Worker

by Dave Wayne
Of all the bands playing jazz-rock, or fusion, or whatever-you-want-to-call it, the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey (or JFJO as they're known by their fans) is the one that comes closest to embodying Joe Zawinul's dictum regarding Weather Report's modus operandi: ..."nobody solos, everybody solos." The similarities stop there, however, though JFJO's careening omnivorous creativity, like Weather ...

There's a point on that bridge where you can't see New Orleans behind you, bayou country in front of you ...

by Emilio Palanti

Save the Date - Luglio 2014

by Luca Canini
Impazza l'estate, impazzano i festival. Rassegne, eventi, raduni, piazze, castelli, arene, vicoli, spettatori sudati che non sanno come sbarazzarsi della coppetta del gelato appena trangugiato, bambini aggrappati ai passeggini, improbabili canotte, pelli bruciacchiate, aperitivi in ogni dove e concerti a non finire. Ma di qualità poca. L'infilata di meraviglie che ha caratterizzato la primavera è un ...
