Jazz Musician of the Day: George Cables
All About Jazz is celebrating George Cables' birthday today! When George Cables was going to school in New York City he used to walk the streets at night, taking in the cosmopolitan sights and sounds, mentally recording his encounters with “so many different kinds of people." In his musical career as well, Cables has prowled sidestreets ...
Save The Date - Luglio 2015
by Luca Canini
Dopo la vacanza forzata di giugno, organizzata all'ultimo vista la sconfortante carenza di spunti degni di nota, torna Save The Date, l'agenda mensile di All About Jazz dedicata agli appuntamenti imperdibili. Non che ci aspetti un luglio memorabile, ma qua e là, setacciando cartelloni e programmi, qualche concerto da cerchiare in rosso lo si trova. Prima ...
The Cookers: Time and Time Again
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 ...

Eddie Henderson: Collective Portrait
by C. Andrew Hovan
One of the nice surprises of 2014 was the formation of the Smoke Sessions label. Their first several issues were actual performances recorded at the club. However, they seemed to have focused their efforts lately on live studio sessions cut at the wonderful Sear Sound studio in New York. The overall sound of these releases continues ...
Art Pepper: Neon Art: Volume 3
by C. Michael Bailey
This concludes the Neon Art series, whose life began as three vinyl LP releases in 2012. Wisely, Pepper's widow, Laurie Pepper and co-producer Cheryl Pawelski decided to re-issue these performances on CD. Neon Art, Volume 1 and Neon Art, Volume 2 preceded Volume 3 in as many months. The Neon Art performances are ...
Art Pepper: Neon Art: Volume 2
by C. Michael Bailey
Hard on the heels of Neon Art, Volume 1 (Omnivore, 2015), Art Pepper's Neon Art, Volume 2 retains the first volume's rhythm section save for pianist George Cables taking the place of Milcho Leviev. This sets up and interesting contrast of piano styles while all else remains the same. Volume 1 was recorded from a single ...
Top Ten Jazz Songs of My Childhood
by Richard J Salvucci
For some reason, listening to the Great American Songbook was a big part of my Italian immigrant-boomer generation's experience. We learned the values, the rules, the moves and the customs of the folks we wanted to be like. And added a couple of distinctive touches of our own. We liked big bands too. But it wasn't ...
Red Garland Trio: Swingin' on the Korner
by Stefano Merighi
Il fiuto di Red Garland, a suo tempo, suggerì a Miles Davis di ingaggiare prima Philly Joe Jones e poi John Coltrane, per formare un simpatico quintetto. Solo per queste intuizioni Garland andrebbe posto su un piedistallo nel mondo del jazz. Ma William Red era anche un gran pianista, realizzatore di una sintesi mirabile tra l'eredità ...
