Duck Baker: Everything That Rises Must Converge

Read "Everything That Rises Must Converge" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay

Ralph Lalama Quartet: Energy Fields

Read "Energy Fields" reviewed by Jim Santella


An exciting band with a firm melodic grasp, Ralph Lalama's quartet pours over musical themes with emphasis, as accents fall into place with angular motion and improvised forays push forcefully.

Steve Marcus: Steve Marcus Project

Read "Steve Marcus Project" reviewed by Ivana Ng


Steve Marcus Project contains some of the tenor and soprano saxophonist's last recorded performances (he died in October 2005), but oddly opens with “Oleo, recorded by his sidemen--guitarist Bill Bickford, bassist Rick Petrone and percussionist Joe Corsello--without him. The fact that Marcus does not play on the first track sets a certain tone; one keeps expecting ...
