AALY TRIO: Sustain
by Mark Corroto
The previous recording by the AALY Trio, comprised of saxophonist (and flutist) Mats Gustafsson, double bassist Peter Janson and drummer Kjell Nordeson, was recorded 25 years prior (Double Or Nothing, Okka Disk, 2002). The reunion of this Swedish outfit is cause for celebration. If we rewind the clock a bit, Gustafsson and Janson began ...
David Maranha / Rodrigo Amado: Wrecks
by Mark Corroto
There was a children's television show that aired every Saturday morning in the 1960s where the host faced the camera while holding up a looking glass.

So, anyway, do the results of a statistically totally invalid survey of observers in this parish suggest. But ...
The Core: Roots
by Mark Corroto
It has been over a decade since a release from the Norwegian jazz band The Core. Founded in 2001, the quartet released half a dozen albums before mostly going their separate ways. Saxophonist Kjetil Møster worked with Gard Nilssen, Mats Gustafsson, and Per Zanussi, pianist Erlend Slettevoll with Hedvig Mollestad and Petter Wettre, bassist Steinar Raknes ...
