Jimmy Giuffre: Cry Freedom

Read "Jimmy Giuffre: Cry Freedom" reviewed by Rex  Butters


It’s Jimmy Giuffre’s birthday. An unseasonable snow covers the ground around the converted old New England stone polishing mill that he and his wife Juanita have called home for 26 years.

Jimmy Giuffre 3: The Easy Way

Read "The Easy Way" reviewed by Joshua Weiner


Jimmy Giuffre's jazz has got to be among the sparsest ever laid down; you can see a whole lot of daylight between the notes. But the sketch-like quality of his music belies a quiet intensity that has an almost hypnotic attraction. This is not jazz that jumps out at you and grabs you by the lapels. ...

Badal Roy / Perry Robinson / Ed Schuller: Raga Roni

Read "Raga Roni" reviewed by AAJ Staff


When jazz listeners think of the tablas, only a few players immediately come to mind--Badal Roy, Zakir Hussain, and possibly the late Collin Walcott (from the group Oregon). Of them, Roy's resumé within jazz circles is certainly the most significant, with timeless contributions to the groups and recordings of Miles Davis (e.g. On The Corner, Big ...
