Fripp & Eno: Beyond Even (1992-2006)
by John Kelman
It's hard to believe that it's been thirty-five years since King Crimson's Robert Fripp teamed with keyboardist/multi-instrumentalist Brian Eno for the groundbreaking No Pussyfooting (EG, 1973). That album introduced the concept of Frippertronics to the world; a method of using two tape recorders and one guitar to create an ever- expanding orchestral approach that Fripp would, ...
The New Percussion Group of Amsterdam: Go Between
by John Kelman
Those who think of Bill Bruford only as art rock drummer for groups including Yes and King Crimson, fusion drummer with his late-1970s group Bruford, or even (finally, after all these years) a jazz drummer with his ongoing Earthworks projects and improvisation-heavy duets with Dutch pianist Michiel Borstlap, still don't know the whole story. Those familiar ...
UK Founder Eddie Jobson Announces New Project UKZ
Announcing “UKZ"--the definitive musicians' band, formed by keyboard and electric-violin legend Eddie Jobson. Returning from a self-imposed 27-year retirement from band and touring activity, the reclusive progressive-music pioneer and “UK" co-founder set out to find the same caliber of next-generation musicians for the new UKZ project that would equal or surpass the talents of his previous ...
Quodia: The Arrow: A Story in Seven Parts
by John Kelman
Transferring live multi-media projects to CD and/or DVD can represent a significant and often insurmountable challenge. Quodia--ex-King Crimson touch guitarist Trey Gunn and experimental keyboardist/founder of avante-popsters Rise Robots Rise (with Joe Mendelson)--clearly views recorded media as a distinct entity, but one that can work independently and in conjunction with live performance. The Arrow: A Story ...

Daniel SmithThe Swingin' BassoonGuild Music2007 Bassoonist Daniel Smith switch hits from classical to swing to hard bop on this rewarding studio set. Other than some choice solos by pianist Martin Bejerano, the quartet stays in the background, providing support to Smith's amazingly fluid lines, which shine forth through ...
Alan Morse: Four O'Clock and Hysteria
by John Kelman
Eschewing the layered keyboards, vocal choruses, and generally “big" production of his normal gig as guitarist with neo-progsters Spock's Beard, Alan Morse's Four O'Clock and Hysteria comes out of left field. While there are unmistakable hints of progressive rock to be found, it's more fusion than prog, an album where guitar is the dominant voice. Alongside ...
The Collectable King Crimson Volume Two
by John Kelman
The second in a series bringing together some of the best live material from its nearly four decade off-again-on-again existence, The Collectable King Crimson Volume Two collects two shows from the art rock group's 1980s incarnation. As much as Volume One (DGM, 2007) was a stunning example of the sheer power and improvisational prowess of 1973-1974 ...
Bill Bruford's Earthworks: Video Anthologies Vol. 1 and Vol. 2
by John Kelman
Since forming his two record labels--Winterfold (to deal with solo efforts released prior to 1987, when he formed the first of his more jazz-centric Earthworks groups) and Summerfold (to handle everything that's happened since that career watershed)--drummer Bill Bruford has reissued, in remastered (and, in some cases, expanded) form his entire back catalog as a leader. ...
Daryl Stuermer: Go!
by John Kelman
The peril of being a musical gun-for-hire is that it becomes difficult to know exactly who the artist really is. It becomes even more challenging when an artist like guitarist Daryl Stuermer works in seemingly disparate styles. Stuermer first emerged on the 1970s fusion scene, working with violinist Jean-Luc Ponty and keyboardist George Duke. But he ...

Adam Lane/Ken Vandermark/Magnus Broo/Paal Nilssen-Love4 CornersClean Feed2007 Here's an early contender for my 2007 best-of list, in which Adam Lane continues his progress towards the top echelon of modern jazz bassists/improvisers. The band combines turbo-mode power and semi-structured pieces--and rattles the senses. At times, Lane amps up his double bass ...
