Stevie Holland: More Than Words Can Say
by Jim Santella
Words are not sufficient to describe the bright spirit that comes from Stevie Holland's latest release. You've got to hear her to understand the many qualities that make up this winning performance. She combines a highly accurate vocal presentation with deeply felt expression and comes up with the best of both worlds. While communication is her ...
Elliott Caine: Blues from Mars
by Jim Santella
As advertised, Elliott Caine brings back the '60s Blue Note style of straight-ahead jazz with this trumpet-led ensemble of veterans.

Ben Adams Quintet: Old Thoughts for a New Day
by Dan McClenaghan

And so does Ben Adams' quintet on Old Thoughts for a New Day.Adams and his group shape their ...
