Nat Janoff and Jake Schwartz: Live

by Walter Kolosky
A lot of professional guitar players are going to listen to this live album and determine they must abruptly change career paths. The playing is that good. There are truly only a handful of jazz players who can claim a unique voice on acoustic guitar. John Scofield once said that is why he doesn’t play it. ...
Miami Saxophone Quartet: Live

Spring Heel Jack: Live

by Farrell Lowe
From the opening salvo of distorted electric guitar, there is little doubt that the latest release from Spring Heel Jack will be nothing short of a wild bundle of scabrous love.
