Keith Tippett - Giovanni Maier: Two for Joyce
by Neri Pollastri
Registrato dal vivo al Teatro Miela di Trieste nel maggio del 2012, questo lavoro è, non a caso, dedicato a James Joyce. Non solo, infatti, questi visse a Trieste, che gli ha dedicato un monumento, ma anche la musica che Keith Tippett e Giovanni Maier vi esprimono ha qualcosa della poetica dello scrittore irlandese: aperta e ...
Gary Windo: Deep Water
by Glenn Astarita
Celebrated British saxophonist Gary Windo had an imposing musical presence as his untimely passing in 1992 left a huge void on the international jazz and rock scenes. He could seemingly gash titanium into shards via his colossal sound, linked with shimmering vibrato phrasings and serrated lines. During the 70s he was very much in- demand and ...
Pino Minafra: musicista militante
by Libero Farnè
Negli ultimi anni Pino Minafra non ha trovato uno spazio adeguato sulle riviste specializzate e questa trascuratezza nei suoi confronti non si giustifica se si considera la sua attività sempre vulcanica e fortemente orientata; non solo, ma basta avere l'occasione di incontrarlo e stuzzicarlo un po' perché la sua voce si alzi animosa, corrosiva e costruttivamente ...

Elton Dean / Paul Dunmall / Paul Rogers / Tony Bianco: Remembrance
by John Sharpe
English saxophonist Elton Dean has inspired several memorials since his untimely demise in 2006. But there is always space for another when it is as vital as Remembrance, a two CD set from 2004 issued by the Lithuanian NoBusiness imprint. Best known for his seminal work with the jazz rock pioneers Soft Machine, Dean also amassed ...
Howard Riley: Live with Repertoire
by Duncan Heining
Pianist Howard Riley turned 70 in February and belatedly celebrates the event with the release of a new CD, Live with Repertoire (NoBusiness Records). It's a really strong live, solo set of standards and a few original tunes recorded last year in Leicester and one that emphasises one particular aspect of his playing. Riley remains one ...
Stan Tracey: The Flying Pig
by Duncan Heining
Stan Tracey is one of the most highly regarded British jazz musicians of any era. Doesn't matter who you speak to--fans, critics or fellow musicians such as Guy Barker, John Surman, Evan Parker or Keith Tippett--Tracey's story is, in many ways, the history of post-war British jazz. This new CD, Flying Pig, is more than a ...
DouBt: Mercy Pity Peace & Love
by Dave Wayne
Quick, name a jazz-rock trio fronted by a dazzling virtuoso keyboardist and a prodigiously talented electric guitarist that plays in a hyper-aggressive no-holds-barred style which combines edgy free improv with a heavy '70s rock sound. If you answered “the original Tony Williams' Lifetime" you aren't alone. One current trio actively probing the outer reaches of jazz ...
WorldService Project: Articulate Arsonists
by John Kelman
It's a very different time to be a musician than it was even 20 years ago, when major record labels still existed, providing tour support and money to make recordings. It's also a very different time because, with the upsurge of DIY recordings, there's more music being released every month than ever before. Add to that ...
Martin Archer: Making A Difference, Doing Things Differently
by Duncan Heining

From early beginnings in music forty years ago, he has built his label Discus into a catalog that is as fine in quality as it is eclectic in taste and content. Based in ...
