Los Angeles Jazz Ensemble: Expectation
by Chris May
The young Swiss label Kind Of Blue, after a patchy start which included some pretty cheesy projects, is beginning to hit a more formidable stride. Two 2007 releases, pianist Mark Soskin's One Hopeful Day, a fine band album made luminous by saxophonist Chris Potter, and vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson's For Sentimental Reasons, all silk sheets and flickering ...
Mark Soskin: One Hopeful Day

Bobby Hutcherson: For Sentimental Reasons
by Jerry D'Souza
Bobby Hutcherson says that he always wanted to record an album of ballads and love songs. That dream has been realized with this recording, which he calls his love record.

Dopo l’eccellente disco di Pablo Ziegler, Tango & All That Jazz la etichetta Kind of Blue si impone ancora una volta con un’altra proposta di altissimo livello. Ne è protagonista il magnifico vibrafonista Bobby Hutcherson: un classico vivente del jazz moderno; un maestro indiscusso del proprio strumento; un modello di sapienza tecnica, da guardare come fonte ...
Mark Soskin: One Hopeful Day
by AAJ Italy Staff
Davvero interessante è questa novità discografica della Kind of Blue Records, con due magnifici protagonisti: il leader della sessione, Mark Soskin ed il sassofonista Chris Potter, autore di una prova ispiratissima; una tra le migliori del suo percorso discografico. Sin dall’ascolto del primo brano, il tessuto sonoro si rivela arrangiato in maniera impeccabile e creativo. Il ...
Mark Soskin: One Hopeful Day
by Chris May
Without belittling the contributions of its leader, pianist Mark Soskin, One Hopeful Day is an album dominated by the presence of saxophonist Chris Potter. It's a substantial addition to Potter's discography, and--following his most recent own-name release, the widely feted if perhaps overly mannered Underground (Sunnyside Records, 2006) with guitarist Wayne Krantz--a return to his classicist ...
