Islands (40th Anniversary Series)

Read "Islands (40th Anniversary Series)" reviewed by John Kelman


With iconic progressive rock progenitor King Crimson's first batch of 40th Anniversary Series reissues, sole remaining co-founder, guitarist Robert Fripp--and, perhaps more importantly, Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson--embarked on a program that will, over the next couple years, bring Crimson's catalog into the 21st century, with double-disc reissues featuring (for the most part) brand new mixes in ...

Bob Downes: Electric City

Read "Electric City" reviewed by Roger Farbey


Despite this 1970 album having been previously reissued on CD in Germany and Japan, this is the first time it has received such an accolade in the United Kingdom, its country of origin. Bob Downes is a talented multi-instrumentalist and composer and this album was one of his incursions into the world of jazz-rock, although he ...

Omri Ziegele’s Where’s Africa Trio: Can Walk On Sand

Read "Can Walk On Sand" reviewed by Nic Jones


This could almost be a band “on a hiding to nothing" considering it self-consciously mines the seam of vibrant music first tapped by the likes of Chris McGregor and Harry Miller. Given the fact that it's only a trio, it's inevitable perhaps that the group lacks the sheer sonic impact of McGregor's much larger bands, but ...

Al Orkestra: Where Are We Now?

Read "Where Are We Now?" reviewed by John Kelman


Sometimes the best music comes from the most unexpected places. British ex-pat Joe Higham has been living in Belgium for 20 years--first studying, now teaching and gigging with a cadre of undervalued Belgian players. Plenty of artists cite a collection of influences, but this saxophonist/clarinetist and his Al Orkestra concoct a truly wonderful mélange, with touchstones ...

Harry Miller's Isipingo: Full Steam Ahead

Read "Full Steam Ahead" reviewed by Nic Jones


Such is the nature of the reviewing game that some reviews just flow out, taking the perennial word count with it. This is usually because the force of life running through the music under discussion is vibrant enough to make it so, and Full Steam Ahead is a case in point. If the notion ...

Command All Stars: Curiosities 1972

Read "Curiosities 1972" reviewed by Nic Jones


That infinite moment with which a lot of the music AAJ covers is preoccupied is amplified here, rife with a depth which far outstrips the casual manner in which the music came together. Afforded the relative luxury of three days of studio time in February 1972, some of that time's most creative individuals on the British ...
