Gil Goldstein: Under Rousseau's Moon: Live at the Blue Note
by John Kelman
Instrument endorsements have become standard fare in CD liner notes. On pianist/accordionist Gil Goldstein's first album as a leader in nearly fifteen years, they say that “He uses Sibelius Music Writing software and pencils by Rocket Manufacturing --and that's a statement. Always a fine player since emerging on three 1976 albums with guitarist Pat Martino, including ...
Odean Pope Saxophone Choir: Locked and Loaded
by Ty Cumbie
On Locked and Loaded, Odean Pope and his saxophone choir offer up lush, drum-tight voicings as gorgeous and rich as any golden age big band section, then shift gear from full-throated crooning to full-throttle blowing with no audible effort. The first two tracks, both Pope originals, set the agenda: the standard-ish ballad “Epitome," which is nearly ...
Will Calhoun: Native Lands
by Brian P. Lonergan
On Native Lands, the electronics of drum programming and guitar loops mix convincingly with indigenous acoustic instruments from around the world. Will Calhoun is able to combine such seemingly disparate sounds, styles and even people into one landscape and still maintain the integrity of the album as a whole. It may be due to the unifying ...

James Carter Organ Trio: Out of Nowhere: Live at the Blue Note
by John Kelman
When James Carter burst onto the scene a dozen years ago, it was akin to the second coming. Not since the 1960s had someone emerged with so potent a combination of astounding advanced and extended techniques, fiery intensity, and unfettered imagination. Clearly well-versed in the mainstream, Carter nevertheless approached it from the left with a rawness ...
Calhoun: Native Lands
