Wolfgang Muthspiel / Mick Goodrick: Live at the Jazz Standard

Read "Live at the Jazz Standard" reviewed by Jack Huntley


The worry, when two distinctive musicians play in a duo setting, is that one will display a heavy-handedness that brings down the combined feel. The urge to fill in the openness is ever-tempting. Luckily, both Wolfgang Muthspiel and Mick Goodrick are not only talented guitarists, but well-schooled in the art of supporting others musically, while maintaining ...

Arild Andersen: Live at Belleville

Read "Live at Belleville" reviewed by Karl Ackermann


More than forty years ago, Norwegian bassist, Arild Andersen joined saxophonist Jan Garbarek and the late Finnish drummer Edward Vesala to record the groundbreaking Triptykon (ECM 1972), one of these musicians' most energized work.

Chick Corea: Solo Piano

Read "Chick Corea: Solo Piano" reviewed by John Kelman


It may be Keith Jarrett and Paul Bley who, with Facing You (1972) and Open, To Love (1973) respectively, put ECM on the map for what would become a lifelong focus on the art of solo piano, but it was Chick Corea's Piano Improvisations Vol. 1 (1971) and Vol. 2 (1972) that represented the label's first ...

Gary Burton: Quartet Live

Read "Quartet Live" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


L'intreccio fra le linee eleganti del vibrafono e le frasi flessuose e brucianti della chitarra elettrica è stata una delle caratteristiche più interessanti dei gruppi di Gary Burton dalla fine degli anni sessanta in poi.

Great Vibes: Nova NOLA and The Wee Trio

Read "Great Vibes: Nova NOLA and The Wee Trio" reviewed by J Hunter


Despite the current iteration of the “Jazz is Dead" riff, it is impossible to throw a rock without hitting one of the music's latest wave of horn players, reed players, keyboardists, bassists or drummers.

Anthony Jackson / Yiorgos Fanakas: Interspirit

Read "Interspirit" reviewed by John Kelman


He's performed with a seemingly countless array of artists--from Roberta Flack and Steely Dan to Chick Corea, John Scofield, and Steve Khan--but electric contrabassist Anthony Jackson, now approaching 60, is that rare consummate sideman who has never released an album as a leader/co-leader.
