Alex Cline: Free-Spirited Drummer
by R.J. DeLuke
West coast drummer/percussionist Alex Cline is a sensitive player with a strong feel for interesting harmonies, shifting voices and changing moods when he writes music. It's a sensitivity not usually associated with drummers. But what's inside Cline, and comes through in his music, is from an artist and a musician, not merely a drummer. ...
The Moss Project: Vision
by Roger Farbey
Unclassifiable is perhaps the most appropriate term to describe the debut album Vision, by guitarist and Berklee alumnus Moss Freed and his sextet, Moss Project. Formed in late 2007, this group--hailing from Manchester, England--has been gigging widely around the world; and it shows. For a first album, this is a more than competent start. The compositions ...
Larry Ochs
by Marc Medwin
“It started out as a social thing," says saxophonist and composer Larry Ochs of what would eventually determine the course of his life. “I played trumpet as a kid in New York, but it wasn't really because I enjoyed it.

Steve Turre: Shell 'n' 'Bone Man
by Ian Patterson
Few can match Steve Turré's skill as a trombonist.

Arthur Doyle
by John Sharpe
Better known by repute than in person saxophonist Arthur Doyle is nonetheless a free jazz legend. Though active since the '60s he has garnered barely a footnote in the written accounts of the music's history, not helped by a diminutive discography on obscure independent labels in limited pressings. But he has persevered and his rediscovery by ...
