Dave Liebman / Evan Parker / Tony Bianco: Relevance
by Nic Jones
This release documents the first time that saxophonists Dave Liebman and Evan Parker have worked together and given their respective lengths of service to the music, this is remarkable. What is less so, is the fact that they so readily found a common language given their respective takes on the aesthetic of John Coltrane. Of the ...
Iconic Free Drummer/Amm Co-Founder Eddie Prevost Interviewed at AAJ
Drummer and percussionist Eddie Prvost was a founding member of the pioneering free-improvising group AMM, back in 1965, and has remained a member ever since.

The New Black: The White Album
by Clifford Allen
Percussionist Gino Robair's Rastascan label, based in the Bay Area, has long been a sort of outpost for non-idiomatic improvisation in the US, recording groups like the Evan Parker/Barry Guy/Paul Lytton Trio, German reedman Wolfgang Fuchs, saxophonist John Butcher and guitarist Derek Bailey. Robair studied with AMM percussionist Eddie Prevost in England, as well as composition ...
AMM with John Butcher: Trinity
by Nic Jones
The amorphous unit that is AMM has been refining--and indeed redefining--a sound for as long as it's been in existence, and there's no reason to believe that the process this implies is likely to ever stop evolving. This does of course render John Butcher's presence here as perhaps anomalous, but there are no musical reasons to ...
Seymour Wright / Eddie Prevost: Gamut
by Nic Jones
On Gamut, Seymour Wright is credited with alto sax and Eddie Prevost's percussive credit is roto toms. When it comes down to it however, those credits are mere points of reference as this is music purged of conventional technique, as if the duo has undergone a process of rigorous self-denial in order to find out what ...
