Read "Scott Kinsey: Thought Distortions and the Art of the Left Turn" reviewed by Mike Jacobs

Read "The Warm Glow of ECM Vinyl: Tomasz Stańko, Bill Connors, and Mick Goodrick" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan

by C. Andrew Hovan

In an oft-quoted phrase from a 1971 magazine article, ECM founder and producer Manfred Eicher described the label's ethos as “the most beautiful sound next to silence." From the start, the label's eloquent sound--captured expertly by house engineers Martin Wieland and Jan Erik Kongshaug--transferred beautifully to vinyl, and original pressings remain highly prized among collectors. So ...

Read "David Janeway Trio/Live At Blue Llama" reviewed by Pierre Giroux

by Pierre Giroux

Live at Blue LLama by the David Janeway Trio was recorded in June 2024 at the Blue LLama Jazz Club in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and it is the kind of album that is unforced, deeply conversational, and grounded in a shared musical trust.

Read "Memento" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic

by Mike Jurkovic

Even with her most youthful and combustible studies into our common language--1988's solo watermark Labyrinths (Victor); with Paul Motian and Reggie Workman, Live In Zurich (Leo, 1989); to the mature, questing, and timeless Amaryllis (Blue Note, 2001) with Motian and Gary Peacock; and the trio muscle of Dreamstruck (Not Two, 2018) alongside bassist Joe Fonda and ...

I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu

Read "I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu

by Ludovico Granvassu

Immortalare la bellezza e la varietà del jazz pubblicato nel 2025 attraverso una “top ten" appare tanto arduo, vano--e alla fine deludente--quanto cercare di fotografare un tramonto sulla costiera amalfitana usando una rudimentale fotocamera digitale e facendo un forellino sul copriobiettivo.
