Jamie Saft: Solo a Genova
by Doug Collette
Jamie Saft's first solo album in his twenty-five year career, Solo A Genova, captures this restless, daring artist interpreting a selection of songs that reflect his eclectic taste as a reflection of his customary willingness to challenge himself.

Jamie Saft: Solo a Genova
by Dan McClenaghan
Pianist Jamie Saft's Solo A Genova is a revelation. It is, in an extensive discography, his only alone-in-the-piano-chair outing. Saft has made a wide-ranging mark in collaborations with Slobber Pup, Metallic Taste of Blood, The Spanish Donkey and Berserk! These group names don't say it all, but do probably say something (Brash? Unconventional? Loud?) about the ...

Jamie Saft: Jazz in the Key of Iggy
by Luca Canini
In 1988 Bill Laswell produced Iggy Pop's album Instinct. Back then, little he could have known that, almost thirty years later, he would have been instrumental in facilitating the iconic singer's first foray in the Jazz world.

Jamie Saft: il jazz secondo Iggy Pop
by Luca Canini
Chissà come l'avrebbe presa Bill Laswell se qualcuno nel 1988, durante la lavorazione di Instinct, gli avesse detto che un giorno lontano una trentina d'anni avrebbe contribuito a spingere Iggy Pop sulla strada del jazz. E non del quasi jazz o del jazz pop, ma del jazz quello vero, fatto di arpeggi eleganti e notturni, di ...
Jamie Saft: Loneliness Road
by Doug Collette
Much of Iggy Pop's early notoriety in his days with the Stooges was predicated on shock value.
