Michael Musillami Trio: Pride

Read "Pride" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

by Karl Ackermann

With ten albums as a leader in his portfolio, guitarist and composer, Michael Musillami remains disproportionately under the radar in the public domain. Working in formats from duo to octet and inspired by classic artists like John Coltrane and Miles Davis, Musillami has a gifted touch for arranging the traditional and highly improvisational together in accessible ...

Read "The Passion of Lorenzo Tucci" reviewed by Robin Arends

King William Jazz Collective: King William Jazz Collective

Read "King William Jazz Collective" reviewed by Jack Bowers

by Jack Bowers

About four years before this splendid album was recorded, the King William Jazz Collective performed its first gig in San Antonio's historic King William district. While that alone could be impetus enough on which to hang a name, there's more, as the band's baritone saxophonist / music director happens to be King, William (at least in ...

John Coltrane: 'A Love Supreme'

John Coltrane: 'A Love Supreme'

John Coltrane's A Love Supreme is one of jazz's most majestic and expressive albums. Recorded in December 1964 for Impulse, the four-part suite is a manifesto that's part spiritual and part protest against the indignities of racism and segregation. The album was performed live by Coltrane only once—in July 1965, at the Antibes Jazz Festival. Only ...

by Ian Patterson

Ricardo Herz Trio/Phisqa BelloBar Dublin, Ireland May 21 2014 It was a happy case of serendipity. The square in front of BelloBar was buzzing with vocal chants, clapping, percussion and the twangy rhythmic drive of three berimbau, urging on the dancers in their strange ballet that was part mime, part cutting ...

Read "Miles at the Fillmore - Miles Davis 1970: The Bootleg Series Vol. 3" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

It would have been inconceivable for Miles Davis in his post-sabbatical, 1980s reincarnation to have been billed as “an extra added attraction" on any festival or concert hall billing, but that's how it was when the trumpeter--already a legend--played his first ever gigs at the Filmore East, supporting Neil Young & Crazy Horse and the Steve ...

Florencia Gonzalez: Between Loves

Read "Between Loves" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

Uruguay-born, New York-based tenor saxophonist Florencia Gonzalez wrote the material that appears on this album during her first years in the United States. That time period found her focusing on narrowing geographical and artistic divides, creating music that exists between worlds. Gonzalez's debut album--Woman Dreaming Of Escape (Self Produced, 2012)--found her working out her ...
