Elliott Sharp Trio: Aggregat
by Troy Collins
Long revered for his innovative approach to the electric guitar, composer Elliott Sharp's laudable but lesser known skills as a saxophonist finally come to the fore on Aggregat.

Daunik Lazro / Jean Francois Pauvros / Roger Turner: Curare
by John Sharpe
Silence could be the fourth member of the group responsible for the cooperatively derived Curare, joining the French pairing of reed supremo Daunik Lazro and guitarist Jean-Francois Pauvros with English drummer Roger Turner. As the four cuts are sourced from two live dates some 20 months apart, this cross-Channel aggregation is clearly not a one-off. Lazro ...

Elliott Sharp: Binibon
by AAJ Italy Staff
Elliott Sharp riesce ancora a sorprenderci allargando sempre di più i suoi orizzonti artistici. Dopo essere stato uno dei protagonisti dell'avanguardia più radicale negli anni ottanta e novanta a New York, si è poi dilettato con il blues o per meglio dire con la sua personale rilettura del blues che coinvolgeva un'altra testamatta come Eric Mingus, ...

It is too easy for the piano, so easily a dominating instrument, to overshadow the bassist and drummer, rendering them as backup to the more harmonically complex keyboard. This is fine, and an enormous amount of great music has been made in this format, but ...
