Tommy Smith: Evolution

Read "Evolution" reviewed by John Kelman


A member of vibraphonist Joe Locke's widely-acclaimed Four Walls of Freedom, Scottish saxophonist Tommy Smith is finally beginning to crack a broader international market.

Rob Thorsen Quartet: Evolution

Read "Evolution" reviewed by J. Robert Bragonier


One pleasant consequence of so many independent CDs on the market is the opportunity to hear regional musicians who otherwise would have gotten little or no national exposure.
