Harvie S: Funky Cha
by Jerry D'Souza
The Latin jazz beat goes on, and Harvie S takes his turn to profile the music on Funky Cha. The bassist works with a core quartet, augmenting it with four other musicians; all eight appear on “Mariposa en Mano. The music finds its muse in the various styles that make up the body ...
Spirit Song; Cityscape
by Andrew Rowan
Ernie Watts Spirit Song Flying Dolphin 2006 Ernie Watts radiates such warmth and lyricism throughout Spirit Song that even a fast-paced, angular tune like “ASFEW ('A Song for Ernie Watts'), where his keening upper register is on display, ends up singing. While he's an ebullient, energetic player, Watts does not ...
Carmen Lundy: Jazz And The New Songbook
by Ernest Barteldes
Unlike many singers, Carmen Lundy does not recycle standards on her latest album, which was captured live at the Madrid Theater in Los Angeles. Instead, the program of new material she wrote (or co-wrote) makes for an unexpected listening experience. Backed by an eighteen-piece ensemble, Lundy showcases her songs, many of which she ...
Eddie Gomez & Mark Kramer: Art of the Heart
by Michael P. Gladstone
It doesn't take more than a minute or two of listening to Art of the Heart to hear the influence of pianist Bill Evans. Pianist Mark Kramer applies the same lyrical bent towards this project with ex-Evans bassist Eddie Gomez--one of the three bassists whose careers are indelibly connected to Evans' trios. This combines for a ...
Sathima Bea Benjamin: Musical Echoes
by Michael P. Gladstone
Musical Echoes marks Sathima Bea Benjamin's return to recording after Cape Town Love (1999). This album was recorded in her hometown, Cape Town, and reflects a certain sense of return for the vocalist.

Cole Broderick: In a Dream
by Jim Santella
Solo piano works well when it's creative. Since this album comes from the mind of a veteran pianist, we get a warm performance that settles down comfortably with ballad thoughts and reflective moments. While developing his own voice, Cole Broderick felt the influence of Oscar Peterson and Andre Previn. He likes to incorporate jazz ...

by Jim Santella
Sathima Bea Benjamin recorded this program of jazz standards in February 2002 when she returned to Cape Town to reconnect. The bassist and drummer working with her are from South Africa. The music, however, is universal. Benjamin uses her veteran ears to experiment with pitch, and her accompanists follow suit. Bassist Basil Moses slides ...
Mose Allison: Ramblin' with Mose
by Joel Roberts
Through a career spanning a half-century, Mose Allison has been known mostly for his bluesy hipster vocals and comical compositions like “Your Mind is on Vacation, But Your Mouth is Working Overtime. But he's also a fine bebop-flavored pianist who even spent time back in the '50s in the rhythm sections of such jazz titans as ...
Dom Minasi: The Vampire's Revenge
by Jim Santella
With an eerie program that follows from Dom Minasi's impressions of Interview with the Vampire, a novel by Anne Rice, an ensemble of improvising artists supplies heightened emotions and powerful sonic storms in empathy. The leader's guitar can be heard leading with passionate strokes as his band of creative instrumentalists stirs up a maelstrom of activity. ...
Bonnie Bramlett & Mr. Groove Band: Roots, Blues & Jazz
by Jerry D'Souza
Bonnie Bramlett is back. She is best remembered for the music she made during the sixties and the early seventies with her husband Delaney.
