Two by Tessa Souter: Listen Love and Nights Of Key Largo

Read "Two by Tessa Souter: Listen Love and Nights Of Key Largo" reviewed by Victor L. Schermer


There are two types of fine jazz singers. On the one hand, there are those who take a tune, swing it and play with it in various ways, whether with scat, shifts in accent and harmony, or even with deconstructions that re-interpret the song entirely. The man who started all that was, of course, Louis Armstrong. ...

Scott Feiner: Dois Mundos

Read "Dois Mundos" reviewed by David Adler


What has native New Yorker and former guitarist Scott Feiner been doing in Rio de Janeiro since 2001?

Freddie Bryant: Boogaloo Brasileiro

Read "Boogaloo Brasileiro" reviewed by Michael Askounes


OK, let me admit it up front: I wouldn't know what good Brazilian Jazz was supposed to sound like if Pele snuck up behind me and hit me over the head with a timbale. My exposure to Latin music is pretty much limited to the “Ricky's" - Martin and Ricardo. So it is with much humility ...

Freddie Bryant: Boogaloo Brasileiro

Read "Boogaloo Brasileiro" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


Like many of you, the name of guitarist Freddie Bryant was certainly a new one to me. My only previous encounter with his work was on a Steve Wilson Criss Cross date of several years ago and that in no way prepared me for the kind of mature and stylish presentation that awaited on Boogaloo Brasileiro. ...
