The 21st Century Guide to King Crimson Volume Two: 1981-2003
by John Kelman
While Robert Fripp—erstwhile leader and only remaining member of the group that literally shook the foundations of the rock world in 1969 with In the Court of the Crimson King (Discipline Global Mobile)— rankles at those who call the continually evolving band King Crimson a progressive rock band, what band better fits the term progressive?
Robert Walter: Super Heavy Organ
by John Kelman
Organist Robert Walter is best known as a founding member of the dance-jazz funksters known as Greyboy Allstars. But since the mid-1990s he's also been involved in other projects, like the George Clinton tribute band The Clinton Administration--featuring instrumental workups of classic Parliament and Funkadelic tunes--and Robert Walter's 20th Congress, an update on 1970s jazz/funk.

The Crimson Jazz Trio: The King Crimson Songbook Volume One
by John Kelman
With all manner of jazz musicians reinventing the music of contemporary pop artists today, it's inevitable that somebody would decide to take a close look at the cream of progressive rock, reinventing it in a more decidedly jazz context.

Niacin: Organik
by John Kelman
With a collective resume that ranges from the ostentatious stadium rock of David Lee Roth and Mr. Big to the fusion of John Scofield and John McLaughlin, the members of Niacin--keyboardist John Novello, bassist Billy Sheehan, and drummer Dennis Chambers--clearly have chops to spare.

Bill Bruford's Earthworks: All Heaven Broke Loose / Stamping Ground
by John Kelman
Part 1 | Part 2As described in an earlier review of his first round of Earthworks reissues, drummer Bill Bruford considers 1987 as something of a fence constructed in his career—the year where he, at least from the perspective of his own work, stopped being considered a rock drummer, becoming a jazz drummer. Walking ...

Indukti: S.U.S.A.R.
by John Kelman
Some people think of high-decibel head-banging when they hear the term “progressive metal, but there's often more to it than meets the eye--or the ear. Even a longstanding group like King Crimson has edged closer and closer to a metal mentality in its most recent incarnation, even describing its own music as “nuevo metal. Not surprisingly, ...
