Trumpet From On High
by Jeff Fitzgerald, Genius
I recently celebrated my sixteenth anniversary at AAJ with a quiet ceremony held in the mahogany-paneled Writer's Lounge at AAJ Headquarters in Philadelphia. I'm not much of a cake person, but there were cheesesteaks from Sonny's and enough alcohol to get an entire fraternity through a regulation 30-day month. Commodore Ricci and my fellow member of ...
Nick Millevoi
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Jeff Parker -New Breed (International Anthem -2016). Sto ascoltando questo disco ogni giorno da una settimana. È una splendida combinazione di loops, ritmi e suoni dal vivo. Grandi brani e l'intero album possiede uno straordinario groove, è divertente e ha un suono unico. 02. Grant Green -Goin' West (Blue Note -1969). ...
Eivind Opsvik: Overseas V
by Karl Ackermann
Like his first four Overseas albums, Eivind Opsvik's Overseas V defies conventional descriptions. The New York resident, of Norwegian roots, has developed a peculiar style that marries experimental avant-garde with the folkloric traditions of the North Country. This had been particularly evident on IV when Brandon Seabrook's mandolin and Jacob Sacks' harpsichord meet up with Tony ...
Rocco John Iacovone: Peace and Love: A Tribute to Will Connell
by Troy Dostert
Rocco John Iacovone has been an under-sung presence in the New York avant-garde scene for some time. Despite several recordings to his name, he's yet to get much big-time recognition. But with this live recording by his octet, the Improvisational Composers Ensemble, that could change. The December 2014 performance at John Zorn's club, the Stone had ...
Ensemble Pamplemousse: This Is The Uplifting Part
by Karl Ackermann

Offered only as a video release, it is available on a limited USB stick (encased in a replication of a cassette) or as a video download. A non-conventional collection, the album incorporates acoustics and electronics, extended ...
Live From Old York: Taupe, Dr. K. Sextet, Leveret, 3*3, Kris Drever & Joan As Police Woman
by Martin Longley
Taupe The Basement March 3, 2017 Taupe is a colour that's ostensibly beige, but in reality seems to frequently inhabit a close-to-grey zone. Taupe is also the chosen name of this stripling prog-jazz trio from Newcastle-upon-Tyne in northern England. Puzzlingly so, as their compacted, nervous, twitching compositions suggest something brighter, ...
Scott Amendola, Wil Blades: Scott Amendola Vs Wil Blades: Greatest Hits
by Angelo Leonardi
Il titolo del disco è ironico perchè il duo Blades-Amendola, pur esistendo da un decennio, non ha mai sfondato presso il grande pubblico e questo è il suo primo disco. Eppure dopo l'ascolto dell'album potreste chiedervi il perchè. Wil Blades è da anni indicato dai critici di Down Beat tra i migliori organisti emergenti ...

Bill Frisell Bill Frisell: A Portrait A Film by Emma Franz2017 Not long after the film Bill Frisell: A Portrait begins to roll, Bonnie Raitt--one of the many high profile names that lend their thoughts about one of the most influential guitarists and composers of the past forty years to ...
