Ornette Coleman's and Horace Silver's "Lonely Woman" — A Disambiguation

Read "Ornette Coleman's and Horace Silver's "Lonely Woman" — A Disambiguation" reviewed by Artur Moral

Art Pepper: An Afternoon in Norway: The Kongsberg Concert

Read "An Afternoon in Norway: The Kongsberg Concert" reviewed by Jack Kenny


This album is not just music; it is a glimpse into one of the most compelling stories in Art Pepper's musical history from the impossibly handsome alto saxophonist with Stan Kenton's orchestra to a drug-fueled inmate in San Quentin, culminating in a glorious renaissance. The sheer logistics surrounding this album are impressive. Consider this ...
