WDR Big Band featuring John Goldsby and Bob Mintzer: Big Band Bass
by Artur Moral
What better way to bid farewell to a long, fruitful relationship than with a mutual gift? That is the decision John Goldsby and the extraordinary WDR Big Band made after 30 years of intense collaboration. Extended partnerships are perhaps not too frequent in today's jazz landscape, even in the more conducive orchestral realm: well-known are the ...

McCoy Tyner Quartet: New York Reunion
by Jack Kenny
McCoy Tyner's New York Reunion is a fine example of late-period recording, presenting the jazz masters in a quartet setting that draws deeply on tradition while brimming with contemporary energy.

by Artur Moral
Antonio Faraò may seem a restless spirit, always on the move--a musical entity gifted with an innate, perpetual acceleration.

Pharoah Sanders: Love Is Here The Complete Paris 1975 ORTF Recordings
by Jack Kenny
The saxophonist Pharoah Sanders was often described as an enigma of jazz, once famously characterized as “a mad wind screeching through the root-cellars of Hell."

Richard Guba: Songs for Stuffed Animals
by Richard J Salvucci
Ok, admittedly, the title is not going to attract many rational listeners. As one understands, the Songs for Stuffed Animals is explained by a band performing tunes for stuffed animals that accompany children during a busy day. Ok. That may well be the case, but the local stuffed animals are not saying. There are quite a ...
