Read "Carles Benavent: Jazz, Flamenco and Blues" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay


Of all the instrumentalists in contemporary music, only a handful have become game changers. Jazz trumpet has Louis Armstrong, rock guitar has Jimi Hendrix, jazz saxophone has Charlie Parker. Flamenco bass guitar has Carles Benavent. Benavent's fluid, melodic and emotive style of playing is as beautiful as it is distinctive. Developed initially from a love of ...

Read "Bill Frisell: Live Download Series #1-13" reviewed by John Kelman


DS#001-013 | DS#014-017One of the biggest problems facing contemporary jazz musicians is that they often have far more projects on the go than could ever be recorded and released commercially by conventional record labels--even small and relatively responsive indie labels.

Read "R.J. DeLuke's Best Releases of 2012" reviewed by R.J. DeLuke
