Joe Morris Bass Quartet: High Definition

Read "High Definition" reviewed by Troy Collins


One of today's most iconoclastic jazz guitarists, Joe Morris is a staunch tonal purist whose crisp, spidery cadences and blistering angular runs are legendary in the jazz underground.

Joe Morris Bass Quartet: High Definition

Read "High Definition" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Joe Morris has often switched between guitars and bass throughout his rather fruitful recorded legacy.

Belogenis/Downs/Morris: The Flow

Read "The Flow" reviewed by Jeff Stockton


You've heard the news: The music business is in shambles. Major labels have seen computers take a big bite out of their profits and rather than adapt, they prefer to sue. Independent labels aren't faring much better and independent jazz labels are faring worse than that. Foreign labels even have to contend with a declining dollar, ...
