Mike Pride’s From Bacteria to Boys: Betweenwhile

Read "Betweenwhile" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Certainly, any attempt to pigeonhole this drummer is a lesson in failure; priding himself in his diverse interests, whether recording a duet album of free improvisation with Jon Irabagon, on I Don”t Hear Nothin' But The Blues (Loyal Label, 2009), or playing with punk band Millions Of Dead Cops, Mike Pride he has also distinguished himself ...

Kevin Frenette: Fall River Guitar Guy

Read "Kevin Frenette: Fall River Guitar Guy" reviewed by Gordon Marshall

Jack Wright/John M. Bennett/Ben Bennett: Rotty What

Read "Rotty What" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Note to my editor: do not attempt a spell check of this review, as much of the language presented on Rotty What won't be found in any modern language dictionaries. That's the ticket here: full frontal nudity. Well, substitute spontaneous combustion for the naked parts, and you have an idea what you are in for when ...
