Toots Thielemans: The Live Takes, Vol. 1

Read "The Live Takes, Vol. 1" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


While studio recordings can capture a musician's sound, live performances capture the essence of their being and the soul within the sound. When an iconic artist like harmonica giant Toots Thielemans isn't in the studio or creating a prearranged live recording, he's still traveling the globe and bringing his music into the clubs and concert halls ...

Dan Berg & The Gestalt: Manifesto

Read "Manifesto" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


The idea of creation through inclusion seems to be lost on a lot of musicians today. Jazz--like every other area of music--has become highly compartmentalized. A need to place oneself as a direct descendant of a particular artist or style often limits horizon-expanding opportunities and results in stunted creativity. Pianist/composer Dan Berg and his band, The ...

Jacob Melchior: It's About Time

Read "It's About Time" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


The art of the trio often takes shape in a variety of ways. Many of today's leading three-piece groups rely on a difficult-is-better approach, reveling in rhythmic trickery, harmonic complexity and melodic fragmentation. Others choose to distill everything down to bare essentials but, in doing so, run the risk of playing dumbed-down lounge jazz that's generic ...

Doug Ferony: It Had To Be You: The Lovers CD

Read "It Had To Be You: The Lovers CD" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Vocalist Doug Ferony belongs in the same company as Roger Cairns and Tom Culver. These are durable male vocalists, conservative in their performance and interpretation approach, with distinctive voices in their own right. They are modern keepers-of-the-flame out of the Frank Sinatra/Tony Bennett tradition. Jazz singers? Maybe. Song Stylists? Absolutely. Ferony has made a career singing ...

Tom Culver: Tom Culver Sings Johnny Mercer: I Remember You

Read "Tom Culver Sings Johnny Mercer: I Remember You" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Johnny Mercer was a class act as a lyricist. He, alone, could well populate the jazz songbook of standards. Singer Tom Culver pays special tribute to Mercer with I Remember You, a sporting collection of Mercer's finest that include “Day In, Day Out," “Skylark," “Moon River," and the title cut. Culver is a vocalist cut from ...

Roy Gaines and his Orchestra: Tuxedo Blues

Read "Tuxedo Blues" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Blues singers and big bands used to go together like bread and butter, but somewhere along the way the singers must have become superfluous in the minds of the leaders or the public. Nowadays, large ensembles are still happy to play the blues--be they well-known warhorses or obscure gems--but husky-voiced singers are rarely seen delivering a ...

Lew Soloff: Sketches Of Spain

Read "Lew Soloff: Sketches Of Spain" reviewed by Karl Ackermann


Lew SoloffSketches Of SpainSheffield Lab 2010 Sometimes it feels as though trumpeter Miles Davis never left the stage--his afterlife in airplay, books, t-shirts, reissues and tributes is ubiquitous. But even for those jazz fans who would rather not languish in nostalgia, Davis, like saxophonist John Coltrane, continues to ...
