Joe Lovano/Greg Osby: Friendly Fire

Read "Friendly Fire" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The answer to the joke: What would John Coltrane and Charlie Parker be doing if they were alive today, is not, scratching on their respective coffin lids. No, if Bird and Trane were recording today, they would probably sound much like this offering by saxophonists Joe Lovano and Greg Osby. This recording for each comes on ...

Joe Lovano/Greg Osby: Friendly Fire

Read "Friendly Fire" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


So here's the basic premise, a revival of the classic “jam session" pitting the saxophones of Joe Lovano and Greg Osby.

Joe Lovano & Gonzalo Rubalcaba: Flying Colors

Read "Flying Colors" reviewed by Jim Santella


Pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba makes an excellent match for Joe Lovano's “don't pigeon-hole me" style.
