Test: Live/Test

Read "Live/Test" reviewed by Derek Taylor


Precisely put Test is four improvisers who perform at the pinnacles of guerrilla jazz. They hit hard and fast leaving a wake of gawking mouths and grinning faces among audiences with a taste for the freer, less inhibited realms of improvised music.

(In his bass-playing years, Silva worked alongside such luminaries as Sun Ra, Cecil Taylor, and Albert Ayler. His arco technique remains alive in today's players.) Irony number two: William Parker, ...

Die Like A Dog Quartet: From Valley To Valley

Read "From Valley To Valley" reviewed by AAJ Staff


Whenever Peter Brötzmann picks up a saxophone, he broadcasts a tremendous sense of urgency. He projects life experience with incredible emotional intensity--as freely and powerfully as a saxophonist has ever spoken.

Sunny Murray/Sabir Mateen: We Are Not At The Opera

Read "We Are Not At The Opera" reviewed by AAJ Staff


In the company of musicians like Cecil Taylor and Albert Ayler, Sunny Murray invented free jazz drumming. In return, he was long ignored by the American listening public. Though he now lives in Paris, Murray still makes occasional visits to the States. We Are Not At The Opera documents one of these visits. Throughout this hour-long ...
