The 21st Century Guide to King Crimson: Volume One 1969-1974
by John Kelman
Of all the groups to emerge from the late '60s-early '70s heyday of British Progressive Rock (capitals fully intended), no group has reinvented itself more frequently and, perhaps, more rapidly than King Crimson. As time has gone on the group's ostensible leader Robert Fripp has refashioned the group through periods of high melodrama to nuevo metal ...

The Complete Improv Recordings
by Jim Santella

Joanna Pascale: When Lights are Low
by Victor L. Schermer
Joanna Pascale When Lights are Low CAP 2004 The quintessential instrument of jazz, perhaps all of music, is the female voice. While jazz has many personae and “voices" (I think of John Coltrane's “preacher" inflections, Miles Davis' contemplative, moody, and earthy “speaking through the horn," Bill Evans' dreamy, complex, ethereal ...
Tom Waits: Real Gone
by Nenad Georgievski
With each successive album, Tom Waits has become harder to pin down. He is unorthodox and approaches things differently; he is strange, and as a result of that his music is strange, different and unorthodox. His last two (simultaneously released) albums ( Alice and Blood Money ) contained pieces specifically written for the theatre and found ...
