Jacob Melchior: It's About Time

Read "It's About Time" reviewed by Jack Huntley


The album's title is certainly not the ultimate description of Jacob Melchior's It's About Time, but it's a great place to start. Melchior, a precise but fluid drummer whose insightful phrasing and timing patterns influence the tone and sprit of each tune, combines with pianist Tadataka Unno and bassist Hassan JJ Shakur to deliver a swinging, ...

Dolores Scozzesi: A Special Taste

Read "A Special Taste" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Los Angeles-based vocalist Dolores Scozzesi concludes A Special Taste with the time-honored Kosma/Mercer standard, “Autumn Leaves." Her approach is one of simplicity and elegance, opening the piece with Jacques Prevert's French lyrics, an alto Edith Piaf crossed with Roberta Gambarini and accented with Daniela Schachter. Scozzesi is accompanied to great effect by guitarist ...

Livia Devereux: Night Winds Whisper

Read "Night Winds Whisper" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Night Winds Whisper--clocking in at a mere twenty-five minutes--seems like more of a teaser than a full blown album, but vocalist Livia Devereux still manages to put her own stamp on some classics during this record's brief life span. One of the most intriguing aspects of Devereux's delivery is the way that she manages to infuse ...

James Moody: Moody 4B

Read "Moody 4B" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


James Moody's 4B is a companion-piece--or continuation-of-sorts--of 2009's 4A. The two albums, while released a year apart, were recorded on back-to-back days in 2008. While the “B" status might lead to the conclusion that this is a consolation prize of an album, that's is hardly the case. Moody and his superb quartet, featuring fellow Dizzy Gillespie-alumnus ...

Read "Elaine's Song" reviewed by Edward Blanco


Representing the second album in a decade for Los Angeles-based bassist Chris Colangelo, Elaine's Song documents seven original compositions that he has been working on for two years; time well spent, considering the caliber of the charts.
