Moutin Reunion Quartet: Something Like Now
by Mark F. Turner
Those twins are at it again: producing some fine jazz. Paris-born bassist François and drummer Louis Moutin continue their brand of in your face (more correctly in your ear) jazz that sharply illustrates of contemporary bop sensibilities. Previous recordings and extensive gigs in Europe and the US have earned them respect among critics and fans as ...

Carla Bley: The Lost Chords
by Brian P. Lonergan
Pianist Carla Bley's supple Lost Chords quartet is a bit like a group of longtime dance partners--the individuals move in sure step together, but leave each other ample freedom to move. The musical result is an airy, spacious feel that doesn't sacrifice groove or drive.Far from being strangers, the four notes in this chord ...
Sarah DeLeo: The Nearness of You
by Jim Santella
Sarah DeLeo's fresh voice interprets this program of standards with a knowing heart. It has an innocence that rings positive. She gives you the feeling that we're at liberty to lighten up, relax a while, and let the music take care of our worries. Resonating with a youthful timbre, DeLeo's voice appears frail and ...
London Jazz Four: Take a New Look at the Beatles
by Ernest Barteldes
This Brit quartet made the songs of the Fab Four their own, taking a lot of risk in reinterpreting many timeless classics but also approaching lesser-known Lennon-McCartney tunes (sadly, there are no Harrison compositions on the album). The result is a collection of songs on this disc (originally released in 1967) that sound almost if they ...
The Stryker/Slagle Band: Live at the Jazz Standard
by John Kelman

When they booked two nights at New York's Jazz Standard earlier this year to test out new material for a planned studio date, ...
The Stryker/Slagle Band: Live at the Jazz Standard
by Jerry D'Souza
Guitarist Dave Stryker and saxophonist Steve Slagle are back with a live recording. What was to be a studio date turned around on a Stryker moment of inspiration when he suggested that the band record the two nights they were playing at the Jazz Standard in New York City. That idea has been augmented by the ...
The Stryker/Slagle Band: Live at the Jazz Standard
by C. Michael Bailey
Guitarist Dave Stryker has the superhuman ability to be everywhere at once. In peering back at my recent reviews involving the artist, I find his fine recordings with Trio Mundo, Carnival and Rides Again, and the trio outing Exit 13 with drummer Sylvia Cuenca. But one of the most notable was Stryker's Zoho release with friend ...
Moutin Reunion Quartet: Something Like Now
by John Kelman
When twin brothers François and Louis Moutin brought their Moutin Reunion Quartet to this year's Ottawa International Jazz Festival, it was one of those surprise performances that created an immediate buzz amongst festival-goers. The intensely powerful quartet played with the kind of total engagement that grabbed the audience from the first note. While most people didn't ...
Christy Baron: Bingo
by Jim Santella
They're the songs we grew up with. No, not the ones from AM or FM radio or from our earliest record, tape, and CD collections. These are the songs that we learned in our first years at school, at summer camp, and with neighborhood friends at play. Christy Baron sings each selection the way ...
