John Zorn: O'o

Read "O'o" reviewed by Troy Collins

Culled from Zorn's inner circle of longstanding collaborators, this all-star sextet of Downtown veterans explores his most tuneful compositions, threading aspects of easy listening, exotica, film soundtracks, surf, and world music ...

Jon Irabagon with Mike Pride: I Don't Hear Nothin' But The Blues

Read "I Don't Hear Nothin' But The Blues" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Without playing “name that tune," it is easy to mistake Jon Irabagon and Mike Pride's one song, 48-minute recording for one by Bill Laswell's Massacre. Same energy, same intensity, and volume, lots of volume. Funny, because this is an acoustic duo between saxophone and drums, while Massacre is a trio of drummer Charles Hayward, ...

Read "I Don't Hear Nothin' But The Blues" reviewed by Troy Collins


The saxophone and drum duo has long been an established jazz tradition, with Interstellar Space (Impulse!, 1965), John Coltrane's legendary duet album with Rashied Ali, widely considered the format's archetype. Containing a single 47-and-a-half minute improvisation, I Don't Hear Nothin' But The Blues is tenor saxophonist Jon Irabagon and drummer Mike Pride's bold contribution to the ...

Jamie Saft Trio: Trouble: The Jamie Saft Trio Plays Bob Dylan

Read "Trouble: The Jamie Saft Trio Plays Bob Dylan" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


The sophomore release by the Jamie Saft Trio is a provocative and entertaining statement. Trouble attempts to reexamine Dylan's legacy from a Jewish point of view, as part of Tzadik's Radical Jewish Culture series, and to position Dylan as a Jewish role model--views that Dylan most likely would have renounced immediately. But furthermore, Trouble is provocative ...
