Pat Martino: Undeniable
by Glenn Astarita
Guitar virtuoso Pat Martino's long awaited album, recorded live at Blues Alley in Washington, D.C., serves as a homecoming of sorts, since he began his career within the classic jazz-organ combo format. As a leader, Undeniable is Martino's first album since the 2006 Blue Note Records Wes Montgomery tribute, Remember. Martino's quartet parlays a ...
Pat Martino Quartet: Undeniable
by Chris May
Pat Martino QuartetUndeniableHighNote2011 Hot buttered soul-jazz, Batman, guitarist Pat Martino's Undeniable is the business! Recorded live at Washington's Blues Alley in June 2009, with tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander, organist Tony Monaco and drummer Jeff “Tain" Watts, it harks back to Martino's early to mid 1960s roots in ...
Tom Harrell: The Time of the Sun
by AAJ Italy Staff
Il disco si apre con tre suoni prodotti dal campo magnetico dell'atmosfera più esterna del sole e registrati, i primi due, presso la University of Sheffield, il terzo presso la Stanford University. Poca cosa in termini di minutaggio (non più di quindici secondi) ma sorprendente dal punto di vista della ricerca scientifica. Come sorprendente poteva essere ...
Houston Person: So Nice
by Greg Simmons
Mom's meatloaf is wonderfully predictable. You always know what you're going to get, and after decades, you've come to rely on it. Why? Because there's something intimately reassuring about knowing that when you go back for more, it's the same as the last time. A recipe change would be simply unthinkable. It's comfort food. Oh, and ...
Joey DeFrancesco: 40
by Jack Bowers
With 40, Joey DeFrancesco--the world's foremost contemporary jazz organist--heralds his fortieth birthday by presiding over a trio session that is typically dexterous and engaging from start to finish. As good as it is, however, a DVD would be even more persuasive, as DeFrancesco's consummate mastery of his chosen instrument should really be seen as well as ...
Eric Alexander: Don't Follow the Crowd
by Jack Bowers
Tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander, now well into his forties and no longer the precocious young lion who burst on the New York scene some two decades ago, nevertheless remains the relentless hunter, avidly pursuing--and easily wrestling to the ground--obscure melodies that are beyond the pale of his contemporaries. Such diligence pays dividends again on Don't Follow ...
Tom Harrell: The Time of the Sun
by John Kelman
With all the media attention being given--and deservingly so--to hot young firebrands like trumpeter Christian Scott, it's easy to overlook the older cats who've been quietly building a life's work where the only thing predictable is unfailing creativity. Tom Harrell may have turned 65 earlier this year, but he's still playing with the vigor of a ...
Dave Valentin: Pure Imagination
by Glenn Astarita
Grammy Award-winning Latin-jazz flutist Dave Valentin was the first artist signed to the now defunct GRP record label, founded by keyboardist Dave Grusin and Larry Rosen in 1978. GRP's hefty roster of jazz artists became a popular commodity, and the label was also commended for its cutting-edge analog and digital audio engineering. Thus, Valentin's flight to ...
