John McLaughlin & the 4th Dimension

Read "John McLaughlin & the 4th Dimension" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Auditorium - Roma - 19.05.2010 A sentirlo suonare, non si direbbe proprio che McLaughlin sia così vicino alle settanta primavere. Tornato verso un suono più decisamente elettrico rispetto ad altre recenti esperienze, alla guida di un quartetto decisamente improntato al jazz-rock anni '70, il chitarrista si dimostra ancora carico di energia, ponendosi sul palco come protagonista ...

Alex Machacek: 24 Tales

Read "24 Tales" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

It's not the first time guitarist Alex Machacek has composed around drum improvisation--he did that with three tracks on [sic], his 2006 breakout record and first for Abstract Logix--but he's taken the concept even farther on 24 Tales. It's also not the only release to use, as its basis, a 51-minute drum improvisation by Marco Minneman--Machacek's ...

John McLaughlin: To the One

Read "To the One" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Con questo ottimo To the One John McLaughlin sembra ritrovare come per magia un filone aureo importante che gli consente di affondare gli artigli nella materia lavica della musica per rimettersi in gioco e per ritrovare una sorta di centralità nella evoluzione della chitarra elettrica.

The Nels Cline Singers: Initiate

Read "Initiate" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The release of the Nels Cline Singers 2-disc Initiate, a two hour-and-fifteen minute behemoth of sound, calls to mind a similar effort of 30 years ago, entitled Sandinista! (Epic, 1980) by the influential punk band turned prophets, The Clash. Like Mick Jones and Joe Strummer's 3-LP project, Cline's vision is too big to be encapsulated into ...
