Dominic Duval/Joe McPhee/John Heward: Undersound II
by Jeff Stockton
An air of mysticism looms over Undersound II. The briefly cryptic liner notes from bassist Dominic Duval point toward the philosophy of drummer John Heward and the significance of & quot;th" in words that express the phases of “a journey in time," such as “birth" and & quot;death." The compositions during this hour of ...
Evan Parker & Joe McPhee: Chicago Tenor Duets
by Derek Taylor
Even with all the grousing about improvised music’s marginalized status, certain circles see a glut of new releases as an obfuscating force.

Joe McPhee: Mr. Peabody Goes to Baltimore
by Michael A. Parker

I think the word “experimental” really carries some weight here, because although most improvisation is inherently predicated on the pursuit of new musical ideas, even highly celebrated examples of improvisation ...
Joe McPhee's Bluette: Let Paul Robeson Sing
