Chad Taylor: Smoke Shifter

Read "Smoke Shifter" reviewed by Carl Medsker

Led by master percussionist Chad Taylor, the album is a diverse program of well-crafted, contemporary songs performed by an egalitarian collective. Taylor co-founded the Chicago Underground bands with Rob Mazurek, celebrated ...

Read "Armageddon Flower, Felix Henkelhausen Quintet & Darrifourcq/Hermia/Ceccaldi" reviewed by Maurice Hogue


It seems like everyone is talking or writing about Armageddon Flower, the excellent new album by Ivo Perelman and Matthew Shipp's String Trio.
