Jeff Williams: Another Time

Read "Another Time" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

Russ Lossing Trio: Oracle

Read "Oracle" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Pianist Russ Lossing's trio evokes a dreamlike state on Oracle, by communicating an atmosphere of unearthly elegance through trance-inducing energy.

John O'Gallagher: Dirty Hands

Read "Dirty Hands" reviewed by David Adler


Saxophonist John O'Gallagher and bassist Masa Kamaguchi have a history. They documented their intense, ruminative interplay on O'Gallagher's two-volume CIMP session of 2004, Rules of Invisibility, featuring Jay Rosen on drums. Dirty Hands, recorded in Portugal during a 2007 European tour, is a continuation of that history, although this time we hear the leader and Kamaguchi ...
