Jeff Cosgrove/Frank Kimbrough/Martin Wind: Conversations With Owls
by Budd Kopman
Returning to the microphones after producing the scintillating Alternating Current, drummer Jeff Cosgrove pulls together a completely different trio for the marvelous Conversations With Owls.

Jeff Cosgrove/Frank Kimbrough/Martin Wind: Conversations With Owls
by Dan Bilawsky
Owls are often seen or portrayed as the most sagacious of creatures, wisely holding sway on a branch and quietly gazing into the night.

Jeff Cosgrove/Frank Kimbrough/Martin Wind: Conversations With Owls
by Mark Corroto
The opening track to drummer Jeff Cosgrove's third release under his own name is The Owl, listening to his composition brings to mind poet Carl Sandburg's words, “The fog comes/on little cat feet/It sits looking/over harbor and city/on silent haunches/and then moves on." The composition is not what you might expect from a drummer led recording. ...

Ted Rosenthal Trio: Rhapsody In Gershwin
by Dan Bilawsky
The glories of George Gershwin have been well-documented in jazz settings. In fact, many would argue that Gershwin's music has been done to death. So does the world really need another tribute to this iconic tunesmith? In theory, it does not. Supply and demand, and the very nature of saturation, would say that a more-than-sufficient dose ...

Bill Cote: Where Do You Start
by Nicholas F. Mondello
Sometimes preconceived notions about recordings can be smashed to smithereens in the most wonderful way.
