Larry Young: In Paris: The ORTF Recordings
by Mark Corroto
You may know organist Larry Young from his work in The Tony Williams Lifetime band (with John McLaughlin) and later with Jimi Hendrix, and Carlos Santana or you may just be hip to his Blue Note 1960's years. Nonetheless, you would certainly be surprised to learn that he lived to be just 38 years old, passing ...
Stanley Clarke/Biréli Lagrene/Jean-Luc Ponty: D-Stringz
by James Nadal
As sometimes happens in life, the best experiences are those that come as an unexpected surprise. The formation of the acoustic trio D-Stringz, featuring violinist Jean-Luc Ponty, guitarist Bireli Lagrene, and bassist Stanley Clarke, was almost by accident, as they were all on the same bill back in 2012, in Paris, playing with different ensembles. As ...
Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet: Intercambio
by Angelo Leonardi
Trombonista, bandleader e produttore, Wayne Wallace è una delle figure eminenti del Latin Jazz, termine ovviamente riduttivo che non coglie la ricchezza della fusione tra ritmi caraibici e jazz moderno. Per comodità, l'etichetta è comunque in uso e in questa categoria Intercambio ha ottenuto una nomination al Grammy Awards del febbraio 2016 (premio poi andato a ...

Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet: Intercambio
by James Nadal
The music that commenced as accompaniment to ancestral rituals and gained its popularity in dancehalls and ballrooms, has come of age.

Inner Circle Music: Creativity and Community Spirit
by Jakob Baekgaard

On the one hand, the major labels have merged and sign less jazz artists, meaning the dream of a company with plenty of promotional muscles becomes harder to achieve.
