Stephen Davis Unit, Shannon Barnett & Isaiah Collier

With this show falling during the holidays, the host decided to kick back a little and programmed three hours of random selections from mostly 2024 releases, plus three new ones: Northern Ireland drummer Stephen Davis' The Gleaming World, and keyboardist Marina Albero's A Nomad Of Sound , and one featuring trombonist Shannon Barnett who returned from ...

Xhosa Cole, Nicola Miller & Art Jackson’s Atrocity
by Maurice Hogue
There's a seemingly endless pool of great saxophonists that have emerged from Birmingham, England's scene---Andy Hamilton, Soweto Kinch & Shabaka Hutchings to name a few--with the latest, Xhosa Cole whose career is taking off.

Marshall Allen, Leiba Trio & Gold Mother
by Maurice Hogue
Lights On A Satellite is a fitting title for an album celebrating the 100-year-old miracle, saxophonist Marshall Allen, the mainstay of Sun Ra's legacy. His continuing direction of the Sun Ra Arkestra puts him right up there beside Planet Ra. Other new releases sampled in this episode come from a very worthy Leiba Trio from Argentina ...
Joachim Kuhn, Alain Bedard & Uroboro
by Maurice Hogue
German pianist Joachim Kuhn headed for Paris in the midst of the late 60s-early 70s free frenzy in Europe, ultimately forming a very influential trio with bassist J.F. Jenny-Clark and drummer Daniel Humair. Kuhn considered that group the band of his life. He may have to make room for his new French Trio with bassist Thibault ...
Marilyn Crispell/Harvey Sorgen, The Young Mothers & B.B. King
by Maurice Hogue
If you haven't heard the piano trio, Dreamstruck (Marilyn Crispell, Joe Fonda & Harvey Sorgen), put them on your must-listen list. Highly original and free wheeling playing make their two releases much appreciated. Crispell and Sorgen decided to continue making magic as a duo on the new Forest, now available, and it's one of the feature ...
Floros Floridis, Tyshawn Sorey & Phil Haynes’ Daydream Trio
by Maurice Hogue
This episode is a truly mixed bag featuring drummer-led piano trios, the saxophone playing of a true jazz legend in Greece, live recordings from New York, and the usual music from faraway lands. Drummer Tyshawn Sorey has been hailed as one of the most important creators of our time, and his recent The Susceptible Now continues ...
Steve Coleman, Berne/Formanek & Arthur Blythe
by Maurice Hogue
If you are as big a fan of Steve Coleman as I am, you will most definitely dig his latest release, Poly Tropos/Of Many Turns, which captures Steve and Five Elements tearing it up at live performances in France earlier this year. Toronto electric bassist Rich Brown contributes an amazing pulse throughout, and Coleman's on fire ...
Spinifex, Angelica Sanchez / Camila Nebbia Duo, & Rob Mazurek
by Maurice Hogue
The unpredictable but always powerful Dutch sextet, Spinifex, is releasing its latest album in North America, Undrilling The Hole, so it will be interesting to see if the band gains some traction in North America. Hopefully it will; they're a no-prisoners-taken ensemble. Brooklyn's I-Beam was the venue for a most interesting and perhaps inevitable hook-up for ...
