John McLaughlin: My Goals Beyond

Read "My Goals Beyond" reviewed by Walter Kolosky


Technically, the acoustic guitar playing on 1970's My Goals Beyond does not approach the skill exhibited on most of John McLaughlin's recordings. Flubbed notes pop up here and there, and although this album is famous for McLaughlin's “solo" renderings of such classic tunes as Mingus' “Good-Bye Pork-Pie Hat," Bill Evans and Miles Davis' “Blue in Green" ...

Ori Kaplan: Le Magus

Read "Le Magus" reviewed by Kurt Gottschalk


There's a variety of assumptions to be made from saxophonist Ori Kaplan titling his new CD Le Magus. The suggestion could be that Kaplan is a sorcerer, one of the wise men who traveled to Bethlehem to greet the newborn Jesus or the twisted, manipulative millionaire of the John Fowles novel. In a sense, though, any ...

Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey: All Is One - Live in New York City

Read "All Is One - Live in New York City" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


The band with a name that seems to be a culmination of random selection is scaled down to a trio now.

Especially when they infuse ravenous improvisational forays with swiftly ...

The Josh Roseman Unit: Cherry

Read "Cherry" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


If you ever wondered whether a musician could transform Elvis Presley's “Don't Be Cruel," into a quasi, calypso-funk groove than stop right here. Well, notions such as these may seem fiendishly theoretical in scope, yet New York City-based trombonist, Josh Roseman's debut solo effort is full of dainty little surprises. Not only he does he pay ...

Michael Blake: Elevated

Read "Elevated" reviewed by David Adler


Michael Blake opts for a simple quartet aesthetic on this aptly named release. The lineup is a Jazz Composers Collective who’s who: Ben Allison on bass, Frank Kimbrough on piano, Mike Mazor on drums. Some of the tunes will be familiar to those who’ve heard Blake at the Collective’s New York concert series over the last ...

Gutbucket: Insomniacs Dream

Read "Insomniacs Dream" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Noted for their vivacious stage shenanigans, this New York City-based jazz/rock/punk quartet also packs a lot of muscle into its repertoire. In fact, notions of the proverbial high school bullies picking on their reticent classmates come to mind. With its freshman release, the instrumentalists’ uncompromising approach to music in general comes to fruition here via a ...
