Graham Costello's Strata: Obelisk
by Mike Jacobs
Scots may have unfairly acquired a reputation for being aggressive. As such, it would be unfortunate if the inherent power in the title track from Scottish drummer/bandleader Graham Costello's album Obelisk (Self Produced, 2019) reinforced that stereotype to a degree. No worries though. Once your hair has been blown back a bit, there's no denying that ...

by Pat Youngspiel

Geno Thackara's Favorites of 2022
