Read "Paul Naser's Best Releases of 2013" reviewed by Paul Naser

John Hébert: Floodgates

Read "Floodgates" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Finding three musicians that speak the same language--jazz--is not uncommon. However, finding three that are as compatible as bassist John Hébert, pianist Benoît Delbecq, and drummer Gerald Cleaver is, as the French say, recherché. French culture is the theme of Hébert's trio recording. The New Orleans born, Cajun bassist invited the Paris-based pianist ...

Ivo Perelman/Matthew Shipp/Whit Dickey/Gerald Cleaver: Enigma

Read "Enigma" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

With a half a dozen releases in both 2012 and 2013, one might fear that tenor saxophonist Ivo Perelman may begin to repeat himself. To put it succinctly--not a chance.

Read "Memories in Motian" reviewed by Zeno De Rossi

by Zeno De Rossi

Soon after hearing about Paul Motian's passing (November 22, 2011) I felt the urge to delve (again) into his music. Later on, inspired by a moving writing by Ellery Eskelin (published on his website and reproduced below, by his kind permission), I thought it would have been interesting to collect brief memories from ...

Samo Salamon: Stretching Out

Read "Stretching Out" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian

by Hrayr Attarian

Slovenian master guitarist and composer Samo Šalamon is one of those rare musicians whose versatility is not aimless and his unique, instantly recognizable, style is far from predictable. Both of these characteristics are amply demonstrated on his fourteenth release, the double disc set Stretching Out comprising of two live sessions captured in 2008, and 2012.
