Fred Anderson: 1929-2010
by Kurt Gottschalk

Marilyn Crispell / David Rothenberg: One Dark Night I Left My Silent House
by John Kelman

Chick Corea: Solo Piano
by John Kelman
It may be Keith Jarrett and Paul Bley who, with Facing You (1972) and Open, To Love (1973) respectively, put ECM on the map for what would become a lifelong focus on the art of solo piano, but it was Chick Corea's Piano Improvisations Vol. 1 (1971) and Vol. 2 (1972) that represented the label's first ...

Lost In A Dream, Motian's set of midnight ballads, ...
