Giuseppe Venezia: I've Been Waiting For You
by Neil Duggan
One of the crucial abilities for a jazz bassist is to blend a group together; regardless of who is playing or soloing, they usually provide rhythmic or harmonic support. So when a bassist acts as leader, they have an intriguing viewpoint around which instrument should play when, and how to structure ensemble compositions for best effect. ...
Gianfranco Menzella: Dedicated To Bob Berg
by Neil Duggan
The name of tenor and soprano saxophonist Bob Berg seems to be mentioned less frequently over time, but he was one of the most gifted saxophonists in the generation that followed in the wake of John Coltrane.

by Neil Duggan

Pianist Justin Salisbury has certainly put in the miles, playing in France, Egypt, China, Cambodia, Italy and North America as well as Carnegie Hall. He was aided in that ...

Antonello Losacco: Worlds Beyond
by Neil Duggan
Jazz albums featuring the seven-string electric bass are fairly unusual. Antonello Losacco makes a strong case that this situation should change, by making full use of the wide harmonic and melodic possibilities of the instrument on his album, Worlds Beyond .
