Evan Parker's Psi: Fifty Not Out

Read "Evan Parker's Psi: Fifty Not Out" reviewed by John Eyles


With its three latest releases, saxophonist Evan Parker's Psi label has reached the significant milestone of having put out fifty CDs. In their way, the three latest CDs typify the label's output since its first release in late 2001; that output has several strands running through it, and each of these releases continues one strand. Over ...

Read "Boustrophedon" reviewed by Budd Kopman

Evan Parker / The Transatlantic Art Ensemble: Boustrophedon

Read "Boustrophedon" reviewed by John Kelman


The delineation between ECM's regular series and New Series has always been relatively clear--improvised music with the regular series, composed music on the New Series. Still, there's an increasingly substantial gray area, occupying a fuzzy space between the two. Reedman Roscoe Mitchell's outstanding Composition/Improvisation Nos. 1, 2 & 3 (ECM, 2007) occupied that ...

Peter Brötzmann: The Complete Machine Gun Sessions

Read "The Complete Machine Gun Sessions" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Anche se risulta più comodo e affascinante considerare Machine Gun come una specie di big-bang da cui improvvisamente scaturì in mille direzioni la lava dell'improvvisazione europea [l'originaria stampa in sole 300 copie per la piccola etichetta Bro, i contemporanei movimenti di protesta in tutta Europa, il Vietnam contribuiscono certamente all'aura leggendaria], quella registrazione al Lila Eule ...

Evan Parker - Ned Rothenberg: Live at Roulette

Read "Live at Roulette" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


E’ istruttivo oltre che affascinante ascoltare Evan Parker e Ned Rothenberg suonare in duo. La loro fraterna collaborazione ottiene, tra gli altri, il risultato singolare di far sfumare incantevolmente le rispettive identità radicali. O meglio: di avvicinare e infine far combaciare le diverse identità culturali che possono fin troppo condizionare un improvvisatore. Con Evan e Ned, ...

Evan Parker / Ned Rothenberg: Live at Roulette

Read "Live at Roulette" reviewed by Matthew Miller


Multi-reedists Evan Parker and Ned Rothenberg have spent their careers challenging the accepted notions of jazz and music in general. It isn't a crusade or rebellion, but rather a personal search manifested in their vast and varied discographies, a relentless probing that characterizes much of Live at Roulette. Recorded in October of 2006--and ...
