Evan Parker - Barry Guy - Paul Lytton + Peter Evans: Scenes in the House of Music

Read "Scenes in the House of Music" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Con buona pace di Zygmunt Bauman, le forme umane più vitali hanno sviluppato il carattere della liquidità non solo in anticipo rispetto al radicale processo di discioglimento in cui sta affondando la società tardomoderna, ma anche in maniera sana e creativa, sfruttando le piene potenzialità della liquefazione anziché subirne quegli effetti perversi che conducono ad una ...

1970s Incus: Old and New

Read "1970s Incus: Old and New" reviewed by John Eyles

by John Eyles

Coincidentally, two recent releases, one a reissue on Emanem, the second an album of previously unissued material on Incus, put the spotlight on the Incus label in the mid 1970s.

Joe McPhee / Ingebrigt Haker Flaten: Blue Chicago Blues

Read "Blue Chicago Blues" reviewed by Mark Corroto

Read "Fragments" reviewed by Nic Jones

by Nic Jones

Entering the territory mapped by reeds/drums duos is a surprisingly risky undertaking, given the precedents: John Coltrane with Rashied Ali, Evan Parker with Paul Lovens, and the line-up of AMM that featured percussionist Eddie Prévost keeping the company of tenor saxophonist Lou Gare.
