Jessica Jones Quartet: Moxie

Read "Moxie" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Moxie is both an extension of tenor saxophonist Jessica Jones' previous work and a glimpse back to an earlier point in her career: she continues to explore the possibilities inherent in a piano-less quartet with a two-tenor front line while reuniting with a rhythm duo that she worked with in the '80s--bassist Stomu Takeishi and drummer ...

Jøkleba: Outland

Read "Outland" reviewed by Vic Albani


Jøkleba giunge al quinto capitolo della propria storia approdando finalmente sulle spiagge ECM. Il più imprevedibile dei gruppi della Norvegia contemporanea omaggia il trionfo dell'enfasi elettronica correlando il discorso musicale a quello (citato iconograficamente nel libretto di copertina) del pittore, compositore e scrittore elvetico Adolf Wölfli (1864-1930) che passò oltre metà della propria vita in un ...

Jessica Jones - Mark Taylor: Live at the Freight

Read "Live at the Freight" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Una formazione con il corno francese ci fa inevitabilmente tornare in mente John Graas, specialista di questo strumento rarissimo nel jazz e musicista che ha lasciato pochissimi eredi dopo la morte, avvenuta per infarto nel 1962, quando aveva solo trentotto anni. Tra i suoi continuatori c'è sicuramente Mark Taylor che in questo live dimostra una spiccata ...

Kin Trio: Breathe

Read "Breathe" reviewed by Jeff Dayton-Johnson


The Kin Trio--saxophonist Sunjae Lee, bassist Andre St. James, drummer Tim DuRoche--call what they do “minimalist bebop." An apparent oxymoron, given that bebop has such maximalist tendencies (exhibit A is trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie's dizzying “Bebop"). They don't mean to be taken so literally, of course. The Kin-men have ably absorbed the sparer offshoots ...
