Gergo Borlai: Talkin' Drummers and Drumming
by Jim Worsley
Most kids have heroes. Whether they be athletes, astronauts, artists, astrophysicists, (and that's just the “A's") or any of the many asundered possibilities. Gergo Borlai needn't go passed the “D's" to find his calling. Drumming came early, incredibly early, and he has never looked back. Determination and commitment can be a powerful force. Before long the ...
Khruangbin: The Sly Art of Containment
by Alan Bryson
It's a good bet that most of us have heard people say they don't like jazz, or even worse, drop the H-bomb, “I hate jazz." If you choose to engage, the key is to tread lightly and tailor an approach that considers the tastes and sensibilities of the other person. The “So You Don't Like Jazz" ...

The Dave Brubeck Quartet: Time OutTakes
by Mike Jurkovic
When, for the first and the millionth time Paul McCartney is queried by lazy savants and crazed fans about what he would have cut from epic double White Album (Apple, 1968) to make it the strongest of the strongest single disc ever, the cutely weathered one just replies “It's the Beatles' bleedin' White Album, man" and ...
Dave Brubeck Quartet: Time OutTakes
by Chris May
Few albums in jazz history are as giant as the Dave Brubeck Quartet's Time Out (Columbia, 1959). Deftly balancing experimentation with accessibility and containing amongst its many pleasures one of the most thrilling drum solos ever recorded, Time Out has become so familiar to us that the magnitude of its greatness has become near inaudible.
Joe Morello: Collections
On January 19, 1957, Art Pepper recorded Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section. The rhythm section in question was pianist Red Garland, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Philly Joe Jones. Recorded for Contemporary, the album with Pepper and Miles Davis's rhythm section should have worked but didn't. For some reason, the song choices were tired, the ...
Danny Scher: Back To School With Thelonious Monk
by Lawrence Peryer
A high-stakes election season. Streets filled with rage and protest. Cries for racial justice and equity. The latest news from summer 2020? Of course, but that also describes the American Scene in the summer of 1968, when a high school student in Palo Alto, California, first got the idea to book Thelonious Monk to play his ...
Blue Note Records: Lost In Space: 20 Overlooked Classic Albums
by Chris May

For connoisseurs of the most influential label in jazz history, the passion can be all consuming: if a dedicated collector does not have all the albums (yet), he or she will ...
Jerry Granelli: Updating Music of Past Heroes
by R.J. DeLuke
"I've earned the privilege of not playing anything I don't want to play," says drummer Jerry Granelli, whose past is replete with the names of many greats in jazz for whom he supplied rhythmic support—sometimes force—over several decades. “That used to be a fear," he adds, “You figured if you turned something down, the ...
