Joey DeFrancesco: Never Can Say Goodbye: The Music of Michael Jackson

Read "Never Can Say Goodbye: The Music of Michael Jackson" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Cross-pollinating jazz and pop does not always yield fruitful residuals--in many instances, it equates to an unbalanced succession of musical events. Here, however, Hammond-B3 titan Joey DeFrancesco renders a happy medium by jazzing up the songbook from the late pop icon Michael Jackson, with jazz, funk and rock stylizations, while retaining its inherent components. DeFrancesco and ...

Read "Tom Harrell: Roman Nights" reviewed by Tom Greenland

Wallace Roney: If Only for One Night

Read "If Only for One Night" reviewed by John Kelman


Wallace Roney's six-year association with HighNote--beginning with Prototype (2004), followed by Mystikal (2005), and culminating with Jazz (2007)--has allowed the trumpeter to amass a body of work far more indicative of where he's always wanted to be than his largely mainstream run with Muse in the early 1990s. If Only for One Night--culled from a four-night ...

Tom Harrell: Roman Nights

Read "Roman Nights" reviewed by Robert Dugan


Since signing with the HighNote label in 2006, Tom Harrell has released the most significant CDs in his three decades-plus of recording. It's no coincidence that, for this same period, he has been leading a true dream band of younger players.

Kenny Burrell: Prime: Live at the Downtown Room

Read "Prime: Live at the Downtown Room" reviewed by Graham L. Flanagan


Guitarist Kenny Burrell remains one of the few living jazz giants to emerge from the hard bop movement of the mid-1950s. Set to turn 79 this summer [2010], Burrell still occasionally performs, when he isn't too busy with his position as Head of Jazz Studies at UCLA, including a week at Yoshi's that was culled into ...
