Mark Sullivan's Favorite Jazz Albums of 2024
by Mark Sullivan
This was an exceptional year for jazz albums of all sorts, as well as jazz-adjacent experimental music. The supply of previously unreleased live recordings seemed nearly inexhaustible! People discovered tapes right and left, presenting exceptional performances in good to excellent recording quality. My lists could easily have been much longer. Lists are unranked. ...
Mike Jurkovic's Best Jazz Albums Of 2024
by Mike Jurkovic
It has been, to say the least, one hell of fright night year. But here is the music that stayed with me, through thick and thin, and all manner of human foible and political upheaval. Vijay IyerCompassion ECM Records Kris Davis
Bill Evans: In Norway: The Kongsberg Concert
by Ian Patterson
The release of In Norway: The Konsberg Concert coincides with the sixtieth anniversary of the Konsberg Jazz Festival. Double cause for celebration. The steady flow of archival Evans recordings shows no signs of abating, with In Norway: The Konsberg Concert, recorded in 1970, coming hot on the heels of the previously unreleased Bill Evans: Behind The ...
Bill Evans: In Norway
by Dan McClenaghan
Pianist Bill Evans' career lasted from the late 1950s until his passing in 1980, but beginning around about 20 years into the 21st century CD releases under Evan's name have been rolling along at a brisk clip, thanks to the Resonance, Elemental and Ess- thetics Record labels. Zev Feldman, often called “The Jazz Detective," has played ...
Mal Waldron, Steve Lacy: The Mighty Warriors
by Vincenzo Roggero
Alcune note per inquadrare il contesto di questa registrazione: il concerto eseguito ad Anversa il 30 settembre 1995, per il settantesimo compleanno di Mal Waldron, non era mai stato pubblicato prima; le esecuzioni dell'intero set sono inedite; l'audio rimasterizzato è stato trasferito dalle bobine originali con eccellenti risultati; l'elegante e ricco libretto contiene testimonianze di Reggie ...
Yusef Lateef: Atlantis Lullaby - The Concert From Avignon
by Pierre Giroux
Yusef Lateef's performance in Atlantis Lullaby is a masterclass in communication and demonstration of synergy. In this previously unreleased performance recorded in Avignon, France in 1972, Lateef, on soprano sax, tenor sax and flute, is accompanied by Kenny Barron on piano, Bob Cunningham on bass and Albert “Tootie" Heath on drums. This two-CD package is being ...
Cannonball Adderley: Poppin In Paris: Live At L'Olympia 1972
by Mike Jurkovic
In his most natural setting--onstage alongside brother Nat Adderley--and accompanied by pianist George Duke, bassist Walter Booker and the trusty Roy McCurdy on drums, Cannonball Adderley pops and bops to all heart's content on Poppin' In Paris: Live at the Olympia 1972 . Appearing as part of the Paris Jazz Festival, the band holds ...
Cannonball Adderly: Burnin’ in Bordeaux: Live in France 1969
by Mike Jurkovic
Intent on burning down the house, Burnin' in Bordeaux: Live in France 1969 finds Cannonball Adderley gleefully passing out the matches. Captured very, very, very live at the Bordeaux Jazz Festival in March 1969, Adderley and his fired up co-arsonists--pianist Joe Zawinul, cornetist Nat Adderley, Jr., bassist Victor Gaskin, and drummer Roy McCurdy--go scorched earth from the ...
Mal Waldron / Steve Lacy: The Mighty Warriors
by Karl Ackermann
Mal Waldron and Steve Lacy first played together in 1958 at the Bowery neighborhood's Five Spot. Their association was long, if not necessarily prolific on record. Though their personal styles contrasted, they frequently existed in a parallel universe. Both expatriates lived in Paris, were predisposed to the avant-garde, and shared a deep appreciation for Thelonious Monk's ...
The Jazz Detective Strikes Again
by Mark Corroto
Producer Zev Feldman, like Joe DiMaggio, has done it again. In May of 1941, DiMaggio began a major league baseball hitting streak. People followed his exploits game after game and hit after hit. DiMaggio's amazing record of 56 consecutive games still stands to this day. Same can be said of Feldman. His detective work, finding rare ...
