Paco Charlin: Jazz Frequency Group Vol. IV

Read "Jazz Frequency Group Vol. IV" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


Like two sides of a coin, Paco Charlin's recordings have alternated between modern and mainstream jazz, each imprint distinctly different. An exceptional bassist with the acumen and youthful presence of a Ron Carter or Dave Holland, Charlin has a deep reverence for the art-form--its past and its present--that is undeniable. Dipping back into ...

David Murray - Mal Waldron: Silence

Read "Silence" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Silence ha una doppia valenza estetica ed emotiva, poiché costituisce l’ultima incisione di Waldron, scomparso nel 2002. Al suo fianco David Murray, per un felice connubio giocato su un moto avvolgente ricco di strutture articolate, di guizzi e sorprese. Tensione e distensione, magma e distesa melodia in un affascinante gioco di scatole cinesi. È questa la ...

Mal Waldron: One More Time

Read "One More Time" reviewed by Mike Neely


One More Time is an intimate portrait of two neglected masters with a third master, Steve Lacy, stepping in to add his low-key tip of the hat.

Mal Waldron - David Friesen: Remembering Wal

Read "Remembering Wal" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Dispiace dirlo, ma la collaborazione discografica tra Waldron e Friesen occupa un ruolo marginale, quasi insignificante, nella fulgida carriera del pianista statunitense. Facendo seguito a Dedication, non si può certo definire questo un incontro memorabile. Un omaggio postumo certamente sentito e sincero, ma che avrebbe meritato una prova musicale ben più significativa di questa. Sarà per ...

Mal Waldron/Steve Lacy: Live At Dreher Paris 1981

Read "Live At Dreher Paris 1981" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The digital age with its bits and bytes has allowed for huge musical projects and reissue bonanzas. We have come from Louis Armstrong playing two minute classics cut into cylinders to today’s complete recordings of Miles Davis’ Bitches Brew and Jack Johnson sessions, expanded from double LPs to four and five CDs of raw material. Like ...

Mal Waldron/Judi Silvano: Riding A Zephyr

Read "Riding A Zephyr" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza


During his lifetime Mal Waldron teamed with some great jazz musicians, including Billie Holiday. He was never afraid of taking chances with his music, often flying in the face of convention. He chose to express himself in modes that gave unusual shape and texture to his compositions. Those traits are in evidence here. In one of ...
