Joshua Breakstone/The Cello Quartet: 88
by Mark Sullivan
Veteran guitarist Joshua Breakstone pays tribute to some of his favorite pianist/composers here. He tells a story about a fellow Berklee student (a saxophonist) who asked legendary saxophonist Sonny Stitt if he could sit in. Stitt shut him down with the question “how many keys on a saxophone?" The novice couldn't answer--there are 23--but everyone knows ...
Eric Alexander: Second Impression
by Jack Bowers
Not only has tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander recorded more than thirty-five albums as a leader since arriving in New York City some twenty years ago, he has appeared on almost as many others as a sideman.

Steve Davis: Say When
by Maurizio Zerbo
Il nume tutelare di questo CD è J.J. Johnson, di cui vengono interpretate sei note composizioni e relativi arrangiamenti. Davis si muove con tanto rispetto nei territori ampiamente esplorati dell'hard bop. Il modello di riferimento viene così riproposto con versatilità sia nei moduli espressivi che nelle sequenze degli assolo. Si impone una front-line ...
