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. Loneliness Road (RareNoiseRecords) documents the latest incarnation of James Newell Osterberg Junior, the front man of proto-punk band The ...
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.

Jamie Saft: Loneliness Road
by Doug Collette

These days his durability and longevity as an artist render his continued presence only slightly less startling: the seminal punk-rocker is hitting his seventieth decade, a milestone few might've forecast for him around the time of Raw Power (Columbia, ...

by Andrea Murgia
Noto ai più come fenomenale organista e pianista della scena newyorchese più sperimentale nei progetti di John Zorn e Joe Morris, Jamie Saft è in realtà anche un chitarrista (e slidista) che non ti aspetti.

Jamie Saft - Steve Swallow - Bobby Previte: Loneliness Road
by Dan McClenaghan
So, the front man for the rock/pop group called The Stooges gets an invite to pitch in with a classic jazz piano trio. The Stooge would be Iggy Pop; the piano trio, Jamie Saft's, with bassist Steve Swallow and drummer Bobby Previte. That's quite an experiment, like something Frank Zappa might have tried. Pianist ...

Bill Brovold & Jamie Saft: Serenity Knolls
by Dan Bilawsky
It's a shame to say it, but even the most open-minded souls have a tendency to classify and ghettoize musical artists. This is the type of album that reminds us all that you shouldn't. Bill Brovold, a guitarist who came up in the New York no wave scene in the early '80s and ...
