Raphe Malik: Companions

Read "Companions" reviewed by Kurt Gottschalk


It's hard to imagine 45 years, hence that one of the things that was so controversial about Ornette Coleman's emergence was that he gave up on employing a pianist. The sax/trumpet/bass/drum quartet has become commonplace in the modern jazz world since that time (Other Dimensions in Music and Masada leap to mind as two of today's ...

Br: Never Too Late But Always Too Early

Read "Never Too Late But Always Too Early" reviewed by Derek Taylor


Die Like a Dog: a name and invective that acts as a slap in the face to the mores of subtlety and passivity. Peter Brötzmann originally convened the group as a channeling vessel for the spirit of Ayler. Their music: lamenting the legendary saxophonist?s tailspin into spiritual decay and destitution. Their credo: a staunch defiance of ...

Hamid Drake & Sabir Mateen: Brothers Together

Read "Brothers Together" reviewed by Derek Taylor


Few drummers can tackle the stresses and challenges laid bare in a setting with reeds as sole partner and still hold onto their share of the proceedings.

Jemeel Moondoc Vtet: Revolt of the Negro Lawn Jockeys

Read "Revolt of the Negro Lawn Jockeys" reviewed by Micah Holmquist


Maybe I am wrong about this, but it seems to me that in recent years an increasingly large number of horn players -including the likes of Nick Bisesi, Rob Blakeslee, and Joe McPhee- have begun to make music similar to that found on the early recordings of Ornette Coleman. Given that over the past 40 or ...

Alan Silva and Oluyemi Thomas: Transmissions

Read "Transmissions" reviewed by AAJ Staff


Having come full circle, bassist Alan Silva returns to his roots on Transmissions. Silva's experience with seminal improvisers since the '60s has earned him a resume that reads like an international who's who of free improvisation. (Ironically, however, he has not received recognition proportional to his work.) Silva discovered electronics in the '90s and seized the ...
