Trio X: Joe McPhee, Dominic Duval, Jay Rosen: Moods: Playing with the Elements
by Ty Cumbie
I'll bet anyone $50 that the wonderful multi-instrumentalist Joe McPhee could play beautifully on an old length of PVC pipe. Any takers? You'd lose. I've seen him do it, and there were at least thirty other witnesses. Neither PVC nor any other sort of plumbing material is listed on this Trio X release, and silver-haired tunes ...
Cato Salsa Experience and The Thing with Joe McPhee: Sounds Like A Sandwich
by Eyal Hareuveni
Sometimes you can't help bursting out laughing while listening to a record. Sounds like a Sandwich, a twenty-minute EP with a most appropriate title, is one of those releases. It features a Norwegian psychedelic rock band, Cato Salsa Experience, together with a jazz power trio, The Thing, and reed man Joe McPhee--or as they call themselves, ...
Dominic Duval and Joe McPhee: Rules of Engagement Vol.2
by Trevor MacLaren
Rules of Engagement Vol. 2 is the first recording by this duo in roughly five years. Though they often play together, it is still a rare treat to get a collaborative disc out of them.

Joe McPhee Interview
by Michael Anton Parker

Joe McPhee: The Sugar Hill Suite & Rules of Engagement, Vol. 2
by Kurt Gottschalk
Trio-X is one of the longest-standing and strongest vehicles for one of the best free-thinking saxophonists around today. Joe McPhee has countless associations, but consistently is at his most relaxed and exploratory with bassist Dominic Duval and drummer Jay Rosen. With only five releases in the decade they've played together, the group has afforded itself the ...
Duval & McPhee and Christi & Hassay: Rules of Engagement Vol. 2 & Tribute to Paradise
by Clifford Allen
Reedman Eric Dolphy and bassist Richard Davis created not only some of the most interesting reed-bass duets (if not some of the first) in jazz history, but also laid the groundwork for the conversant duo in realms not just of rhythm (reeds/drums, reeds/piano) but of sound. One just has to think of the ways in which ...
