Marcos Varela: San Ygnacio

Read "San Ygnacio" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Bassist Marcos Varela, Houston-bred and now New York-based, opens his recording debut, San Ygnacio, with a big, brash version of the standard, “I Should Care."

The Cookers: Time and Time Again

Read "Time and Time Again" reviewed by Libero Farnè


Delle molte facce del mainstream quella rappresentata da questo CD è una delle più autentiche e caratterizzate, in quanto i membri di The Cookers sono accomunati da determinanti fattori biografici. Nati fra il 1935 ((Cecil McBee) e il 1964 (David Weiss), essi sono stati tutti esponenti di primo piano di quell'hard bop dai risvolti modali che ...
