by Victor L. Schermer
Chuck Anderson's guitar artistry is a cut above the jazz standard. The quality of his execution is so fine that on first hearing, it is literally stunning. His recent CD, Freefall (Dreambox Media, 2010) consists of musical gems--all-original compositions, woven into a tapestry worthy of a master classical guitarist. Yet it is all straight-ahead mainstream jazz ...
Peppe Merolla: Stick With Me
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Although Stick With Me is a simple, straight ahead album, it is fresh and full of wonderful twists and turns. The very first track says, “expect the unexpected," when “Naples," opens with a splash of cymbals, the rolling thunder of mallets on tympanis and Steve Turre calling plaintively on his trademark shells, and then it's a ...

Oles Brothers with Rob Brown: Live At SJC
by Mark Corroto
It's funny how certain jazz players find other kindred spirits to play with. Where would Ornette Coleman have been if he hadn't found Charlie Haden? Or McCoy Tyner without John Coltrane?

John McLaughlin and The 4th Dimension: John McLaughlin and The 4th Dimension: To The One
