Read "The State of ECM Records 2009: Steve Kuhn, Jan Garbarek and Thomas Zehetmair" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

Let's Party: Anthony Wilson Trio, Joel Frahm & Bruce Katz, James Carter et al.

Read "Let's Party: Anthony Wilson Trio, Joel Frahm & Bruce Katz, James Carter et al." reviewed by J Hunter


Just because summer is long gone doesn't mean the other three seasons have to be a marathon of dreariness. The calendar's got plenty of reasons to party--Christmas, New Year's Eve, or (for college students) the odd Tuesday that needs freshening up. It's only logical that parties need party music, so here are three “musical guests," all ...

ECM at 40: Enjoy Jazz Festival: Days 3-6, October 22-25, 2009

Read "ECM at 40: Enjoy Jazz Festival: Days 3-6, October 22-25, 2009" reviewed by John Kelman


Days 1-2 | Day 3-6 | Days 7-10 | Days 11-12 ECM at 40. It's hard to believe that a record label responsible for stretching the boundaries of modern music has survived the various crises that have threatened and, in some cases, decimated so many others. With Enjoy Jazz's “The Blue Sound: 40 Years ...

John Abercrombie: Wait Till You See Her

Read "Wait Till You See Her" reviewed by Francis Lo Kee


John Abercrombie = 3242, whose history with ECM stretches back to the early '70s, now releases his fourth CD with the same quartet of violinist Mark Feldman and drummer Joey Baron, newcomer Thomas Morgan replacing previous bassist Marc Johnson.

Read "The Crucible" reviewed by Mark Corroto


John Zorn is not one to rest on his laurels. It is probably not possible for Zorn to rest, period. With The Crucible, the fourth installment of his Moonchild band, the saxophonist/composer delivers a recording that will be attractive to both hardcore metal and jazz fans. Twenty years ago Zorn unleashed his band Naked ...

Bill Frisell: Solos and Films of Buster Keaton

Read "Bill Frisell: Solos and Films of Buster Keaton" reviewed by John Kelman


In a career which is in 2009 entering its fourth decade in the public eye, guitarist Bill Frisell has fashioned a trajectory like no other. As comfortable playing Hank Williams country tunes as he is a Ron Carter blues, the guitarist has created such a distinctive sound that, even when he's playing a plain old G ...

John Abercrombie Quartet: Wait Till You See Her

Read "Wait Till You See Her" reviewed by John Kelman


The beauty of working with the same people long-term is it's possible to evolve a cohesive ensemble sound, while still retaining its singular group voice. Guitarist John Abercrombie has been working with violinist Mark Feldman since Open Land (ECM, 1999), but it was when he recruited bassist Marc Johnson and drummer Joey Baron for Cat 'n' ...

Steve Kuhn Trio w/ Joe Lovano: Mostly Coltrane

Read "Mostly Coltrane" reviewed by Troy Collins


Mostly Coltrane is pianist Steve Kuhn's venerable ode to his onetime employer, John Coltrane, with whom he played for eight weeks in early 1960 at New York City's Jazz Gallery. Kuhn revisits those seminal days without ignoring Coltrane's later period advancements, extrapolating his controversial innovations with rare lyricism and tenderness--a uniquely beautiful tribute unencumbered by nostalgic ...
