Udin&Jazz Varie sedi Udine e provincia 01-04.07.2014 Come ogni anno Udin&Jazz, ormai giunto alla ventiquattresima edizione, era spalmato su un periodo piuttosto lungo (l'anteprima con Pat Metheny era prevista il 14 giugno ma non è andata in scena per il maltempo) e si è esteso fino a ...
Practice, Do You? Part 1-3
by Dom Minasi
I began studying the guitar when I was seven years old. I hated my teacher and I didn't practice much, but when I changed teachers' and I went to Joe Geneli, I regained a love for the guitar that I first had when I was four years old when I first saw Roy Rogers sing and ...

by Ian Patterson
Happenstance may play a role in turning dreams into reality, but anyone who's ever realized a burning ambition will appreciate just how much hard work has paved the way.

Buddy Rich: The Beat Goes On
by Jack Bowers

Buddy's remarkable talents as a drummer and ...
Keith Jarrett / Charlie Haden: Last Dance
by John Kelman
For the past 30 years--barring a few diversions into classical repertoire, unexpected instrumentation like 1986's Book of Ways and a couple of home-cooked solo albums that, as with the 1986 recording No End (ECM, 2013), were out-of-character recordings where he overdubbed all the instruments himself--pianist Keith Jarrett has been working two contexts and two contexts only: ...

Miles at the Fillmore - Miles Davis 1970: The Bootleg Series Vol. 3
by Ian Patterson
It would have been inconceivable for Miles Davis in his post-sabbatical, 1980s reincarnation to have been billed as “an extra added attraction" on any festival or concert hall billing, but that's how it was when the trumpeter--already a legend--played his first ever gigs at the Filmore East, supporting Neil Young & Crazy Horse and the Steve ...
Miles Davis: Miles at the Fillmore - Miles Davis 1970: The Bootleg Series Vol. 3
by Doug Collette
Intensely intoxicating as much as it is wholly hypnotic, Miles Davis Live at the Fillmore becomes increasingly so through the course of its four compact discs. More than doubling the playing time of the original four-sided vinyl release, The Bootleg Series Vol. 3 posits an argument the band(s) of this era were among the finest ever ...
