Doug Collette's Best of 2015
by Doug Collette
It didn't take much thought to compose this list, perhaps because the inclusions run the gamut from finely-produced studio sessions to equally inspired live recordings (and much in between). And more so than in recent years, the playability of all these albums will surely equal their durability as time marches on, which is not necessarily a ...
Mark Sullivan’s Best Releases of 2015
by Mark Sullivan
This is my first year end list as an AAJ contributor, hopefully the first of many! I reviewed a lot of great music, major label and independent productions alike. Here's the ten that rose to the top of my list of favorites, in no particular order. Eberhard Weber Hommage à Eberhard ...
Troy Collins' Best Releases of 2015
by Troy Collins
2015 was an eventful year for jazz and creative improvised music. A decade and a half into the new century found rising young artists revisiting, reevaluating and reinterpreting standards from the jazz canon in surprisingly creative ways. Many of the albums listed below are conceptual efforts dedicated to the advancements of revered masters, ranging from pre-war ...
Dave Douglas Quintet: Brazen Heart
by Dave Wayne
Leading a quintet whose debut recording, Be Still (Greenleaf Music, 2012) was an elegiac song cycle dedicated to his late mother, Dave Douglas' Brazen Heart, sadly, finds the trumpeter / composer in mourning once again. Damon Douglas, Dave's brother, passed away in June 2015. Yet, the overall tenor of Brazen Heart is completely different than Be ...
Barry Altschul's 3dom Factor: Tales of the Unforeseen
by John Sharpe
Veteran drummer Barry Altschul has enjoyed something of a late career resurgence over the last decade. Work with co-operatives such as the FAB Trio, as well as with trombonists Steve Swell and Roswell Rudd presaged his first leadership date for a quarter of a century in 3dom Factor (TUM Records, 2013). That trio with bassist Joe ...
Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Mauch Chunk
by Troy Collins
Any concerns that a personnel change would affect the mercurial disposition of the “terrorist bebop band" known as Mostly Other People Do the Killing have been confirmed as unfounded by Mauch Chunk, the wily ensemble's eighth studio recording for Hot Cup Records. Trumpeter Peter Evans, an original member since the core quartet's founding in 2003, left ...
Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Mauch Chunk
by Mark Sullivan
Mostly Other People Do the Killing, the bad boys of jazz, don't quite turn in a straight ahead hard bop album with Mauch Chunk, but it's as close as they are likely to get. The new quartet has pianist Ron Stabinsky in place of longtime trumpeter Peter Evans--which seems to ground the group sound--and there's less ...

Poker di Jon Irabagon
by Stefano Merighi
Il jazz di oggi è sicuramente policentrico, continuando in questo la sua stratificata tradizione. Sempre più spazio trovano artisti americani di origini diverse. Tra essi, il sassofonista Jon Irabagon (sangue filippino) è emerso da un decennio con una forza dirompente, conseguenza di una preparazione enciclopedica, tradotta abilmente in un'ampia gamma di situazioni sonore.
