Marc Copland: Zenith
by Budd Kopman
Whenever pianist Marc Copland is a sideman on a session, much less leading the session, there are very high expectations for the music.

Gary Peacock Trio: Now This
by Maurizio Zerbo
La pubblicazione di questo CD avviene in concomitanza con l'ottantesimo compleanno del contrabbassista statunitense. Non è quindi il caso di fare le pulci ad un CD che celebra la carriera artistica di un grande protagonista del jazz moderno. Le undici tracce rappresentano il lato lunare ed intimistico del leader, a scapito dei gloriosi trascorsi avanguardistici. In ...
Just Because: Hampton Hawes With Scott LaFaro
Before Scott LaFaro joined the Bill Evans Trio in late 1959, the young bassist’s second west coast stint included work with Chet Baker, Barney Kessel, Victor Feldman, Cal Tjader, Stan Getz and Hampton Hawes, among others.
