Andy Narell: Tatoom: Music for Steel Orchestra

Read "Tatoom: Music for Steel Orchestra" reviewed by Jeff Winbush


There are times when you have to admire an artistic effort for its sheer audacity if nothing else. Andy Narell's Tatoom is one such statement.

Andy Narell: Tatoom: Music for Steel Orchestra

Read "Tatoom: Music for Steel Orchestra" reviewed by Woodrow Wilkins


The steel pan, sometimes referred to as the steel drum or oil drum, is almost synonymous with Latin music. However, one artist has taken the instrument into another realm.

Chuck Loeb: Presence

Read "Presence" reviewed by Jeff Winbush


Presence, a gorgeous, lyrical album, provides a suitable showcase for Chuck Loeb's technical proficiency and impressive range. You don't just hear Loeb. You can almost see him creating the music.
