Thom Rotella 4-tet: Out of the Blues
by C. Michael Bailey
Let's hear it for the straight-ahead, blues-drenched, Blue Note circa 1955 blowing session. Sometimes after feasting on the rich duck pate of ECM or the decadent foie gras of Winter & Winter, the listener just craves the black-eyed peas and collards simplicity of the blues. Let's also hear it for a full, round arch top guitar ...
Perez: It's Happenin'
by Michael P. Gladstone
Jazz vocalist Perez (first name Diana) offers a sampling on her third album, It's Happenin' . The instrumental portion of this album is really topflight jazz, but vocally the first half is pleasant at best, finding some inspiration about halfway through the session. Perez is a child of Cuban Irish and Puerto Rican heritage ...
Othella Dallas: I Live The Life I Love
by Michael P. Gladstone
Othella Dallas has lived a rather picturesque life in show business, and tells her musical tale in I Live The Life I Love.

The New York-based team of guitarist Tom Dempsey and bassist Tim Ferguson has been playing as a duo over the course of the past twenty years. It is, indeed, a shame that knowledge of the quality of this music appears to be a state secret. Their collaborative What's Going On? provides not only a ...
The Rave Tesar Trio: You Decide
by C. Michael Bailey
Jazz is music of inherent high quality. Like sex and pizza, even the worst one experiences is still pretty good. This is why the jazz audience has such a high tolerance for trio recordings. The vast majority are very good, while not being great. This trio tachyphylaxis makes it difficult for the erstwhile trio leader to ...
Louie Bellson & Clark Terry: Louie & Clark Expedition 2
by Jerry D'Souza
Drummer Louie Bellson and trumpeter Clark Terry trump age to front a big band with verve and youthful vitality. Though both are in their eighties, age has not diminished the wonderful ability they have shown through their long and distinguished careers to give jazz a glorious presence. Bellson and Terry collaborated in 1994 on the big ...
Taeko: One Love
by Michael P. Gladstone
Say what you will, jazz vocalist Taeko (Fukao)'s One Love is bright and breezy. With a slight trace of accented English, she navigates through eleven mostly mid and up-tempo tunes. Born in Kyoto, Japan, Taeko moved to New York in 1998 to begin her musical experiences by studying with jazz/gospel vocalist Juanita ...
Melody Breyer-Grell: Fascinatin' Rhythms: Singing Gershwin
by Michael P. Gladstone
Coming on the heels of her well-received debut album, The Right Time (Rhombus, 2004), jazz singer Melody Breyer-Grell's Fascinatin' Rhythms: Singing Gershwin is an appreciation of the Gershwin songbook. This is, by itself, a daunting task, since there are many preceding greats who have interpreted these songs many times over. Tackling tunes like “Embraceable You," “Someone ...
