D.D. Jackson: Sigame
by AAJ Staff
Pianist D.D. Jackson has covered a lot of ground in his seven records as a leader. During this process of evolution, he moved from the powerfully warm sound of his first disc, Peace-Song (a true masterpiece), through signature efforts in solo, duo, trio, and sextet settings. Jackson's piano playing draws heavily upon blues, soul, and gospel ...
D.D. Jackson: Sigame
by Jim Santella
D.D. Jackson's piano trio opens his latest album with a down-home flavor. Laid back and wholesome, the piece forms an instant association with Ray Charles. Jackson's improvisation, however, moves off into a different, desired direction. More adventurous than most, the pianist stretches his blues tinge across the keyboard in favor of dynamic inflection. All the compositions ...
Billy Bang: Vietnam: The Aftermath
by AAJ Staff
Violinist Billy Bang, now in his sixth decade, has had a lot of powerful experiences throughout his life. When he was 19, he headed off to Vietnam for over a year of service, and then returned to join the anti-war movement. His musical experiences after that point drew him close to some of the most progressive ...

Russell Gunn: Ethnomusicology, Vol. 2
by AAJ Staff
Trumpeter Russell Gunn demonstrated a very personal vision of jazz fusion on the first volume in this series, which generated a lot of media interest and earned him a Grammy nomination. He continues along the same vein with Ethnomusicology, Vol. 2, a fine showcase for his manifold crossover interests. It's too easy to dismiss this music ...
Bluiett : The Calling
by Jim Santella
Bluiett, Jackson and El'Zabar pour a little of everything into their collaboration. Wordless scat vocals, lyrical ballads, soulful blues, leading-edge exploring, modern jazz, and exotic vocal incantations make for an eclectic session. Kahil El'Zabar sets a fascinating scene with his spiritual singing and natural drum accompaniment. D.D. Jackson applies his adventurous keyboard technique to each of ...
Bluiett/Jackson/El'Zabar: The Calling
by AAJ Staff
The BJE trio lies comfortably at the intersection between jazz, tribal music, blues, and gospel. In its original form as BJT (with Senegalese percussionist Mor Thiam), this trio defined and occupied a niche. The new reincarnation continues to expand that sound. By distilling modern jazz and consciously returning to the roots of the tradition, these players ...
World Saxophone Quartet: 25th Anniversary: The New Chapter
by AAJ Staff
To the uninitiated, the title of this disc might portend bad omens. These four guys have been playing saxophone together for twenty-five years--how can they possibly still be interesting? Of course, that question is answered most affirmatively after a few minutes of listening, but it still deserves comment. With a combined eight decades of shared experience, ...
