William Hooker Trio: Yearn for Certainty
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Drummer William Hooker can tell stories in many more ways than one. On Yearn for Certainty, he works his majestic tenor vocal chords as he recites a poem that accompanies the initial track, “Ingratiated Beam--Leroy." One track later, on the superbly crafted, rhapsodic melody of “Century's Soles," Hooker manipulates his ensemble of drums to tell a ...

The OtherTet: The OtherTet
by Raul d'Gama Rose
The seemingly innocuously titled The OtherTet is far from an exercise in making-music in a modern idiom. A generation ago, speculation would be rife about minimalism and atonalism, terms that are laughable in today's context of existential angst. Therefore, when contemporary musical compositions delve into the macabre and the irony of contemporary existence a new idiom ...
Warren Smith: Old News Borrowed Blues
by AAJ Italy Staff
Nonostante una carriera ormai cinquantennale, gli album pubblicati a nome di Warren Smith si possono contare sulle dita di una mano. Avevamo dunque riposto grandi aspettative su questo Old News Borrowed Blues. Purtroppo la qualità della registrazione è tale da sminuire il piacere dell'ascolto. Un vero peccato perché l'album si preannuncia, sin dal titolo, interessante. Nel ...

Tom Abbs and Frequency Response: Lost + Found
by Lyn Horton
Rarely does a recording's clarity of purpose come through in one listening, but bassist Tom Abbs and Frequency Response's Lost + Found fits the bill. The significance of this record originates in the brevity of each of bassist Abbs' eighteen pieces--lasting, on average, only slightly over three minutes, with the longest being six and the shortest ...
Tom Abbs: Lost & Found
by Raul d'Gama Rose
It is possible to respond to Tom Abbs & Frequency Response's Lost & Found with eyes wide shut, ears completely unlocked and a body ready to leap up and dance to some of its eighteen randomly arranged musical fragments. There is a cerebral angle here, most likely deliberate on the part of the artist. It has ...
