Industrial Jazz Group: City of Angles

Read "City of Angles" reviewed by William Grim

by William Grim

City of Angles is the second CD from the Industrial Jazz Group, one of the most interesting new jazz ensembles on the West Coast scene. Irony abounds in the offerings from the IJG. First of all, there’s nothing “industrial” at all about their music, so you can put away your underlined copies of Walter Benjamin’s essay ...

Anthony Braxton/Taylor Ho Bynum: Duets (Wesleyan) 2002

Read "Duets (Wesleyan) 2002" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Extracting information (and sometimes pleasure) from an Anthony Braxton large ensemble recording is often an arduous task. The music's density and somewhat impermeable nature often exhausts a listener's patience. Somehow this has rarely been the case with his duo recordings. Duets with Max Roach, Georg Grawe, Gino Robair, Evan Parker, Derek Bailey, and now Taylor Ho ...

The Skip Heller Quartet: Homegoing

Read "Homegoing" reviewed by Jim Santella

by Jim Santella

Skip Heller's organ combo brightens the day with its saucy freshness and pert attitude. Eclectic in nature, the group interprets blues, pop soundtracks and mainstream jazz classics. It's timeless music with a timeless flavor. Heller emerged in Philadelphia in the mid-eighties, but his music, much of it original, comes from an earlier era. Shirley Scott, Groove ...

The Skip Heller Quartet: Homegoing

Read "Homegoing" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

by C. Michael Bailey

Wow! Skip Heller is a bit hard to describe. And, that is what is so splendid about him and his art. He is a West Coast Uri Caine who plays the guitar and has a bent sense of humor. On Homegoing, Heller returns to his native Philadelphia, a repatriated expatriate. After several ...

Ron McCurdy Quintet: Once Again for the First Time

Read "Once Again for the First Time" reviewed by Geoff Barber

by Geoff Barber

Dr. Ron McCurdy, having taught jazz for the last 15 years, finally decided to jump into the fray and record ...
