Fambrough had apparently been awaiting a transplant match. Several musical tributes were held in Philadelphia over the last several years to help Fambrough and his family pay the bassist's outrageous medical ...

Mario Romano Quartet: Valentina

Read "Valentina" reviewed by Larry Taylor

Sebastian Liedke: To Walk In The Past

Read "To Walk In The Past" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

Different people often have different thoughts of what a piano trio should be: some view Oscar Peterson-style groups as the archetype in this category; others, just as easily, point to Bill Evans and feel that his body of work is the alpha and omega when it comes to piano group interaction and chemistry; while younger, rock-leaning ...

No hoppin' on the “A" train to the Village; out here jazz lovers spin their odometers drivin' from Hollywood to Studio City, from downtown LA to Long Beach, in search of hip and ...

Eric Harland: Voyager Live by Night

Read "Voyager Live by Night" reviewed by Mark F. Turner

One of modern jazz's most dynamic and in-demand drummers, he's been a little preoccupied: early stints with Terence Blanchard and Wynton Marsalis; high profile gigs with Kurt Rosenwinkel, McCoy Tyner, and The Monterey Quartet; and tenures with the SFJAZZ Collective and Charles Lloyd's ensembles, are just ...
