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 ...

Eddie Henderson: Collective Portrait

Read "Collective Portrait" reviewed 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

Read "Neon Art: Volume 3" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


This concludes the Neon Art series, whose life began as three vinyl LP releases in 2012.

Art Pepper: Neon Art: Volume 2

Read "Neon Art: Volume 2" reviewed 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

Read "Top Ten Jazz Songs of My Childhood" reviewed 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

Read "Swingin' on the Korner" reviewed 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 ...

George Cables: Icons and Influences

Read "Icons and Influences" reviewed by Maurizio Zerbo


Pochi CD come questo trasmettono all'ascoltatore emozioni e swing di incommensurabile intensità. È questa la chiave di lettura di un magnifica prova pianistica, sviluppatasi nel segno di una olimpica leggerezza di tocco e fluidità di fraseggio. Una quintessenza della raffinatezza armonica e della tecnica sopraffina, non gridata solo sussurrata. Una lezione di jazz da parte del ...
