Milcho Leviev: Multiple Personalities: Milcho Leviev Plays the Music of Don Ellis

Read "Multiple Personalities: Milcho Leviev Plays the Music of Don Ellis" reviewed by Robert R. Calder


Milcho Leviev! The exclamation mark doesn't mean I'm a special fan. I've just heard Leviev, and to hear of him again was itself exciting. Long ago he came through the Iron Curtain from a jazz and big band career in Bulgaria, worked in Germany with the supertrombonist Albert Mangelsdorff, played on a brilliant Art Pepper album, ...

Paul Quinichette & His Basie-ites: Like Basie

Read "Like Basie" reviewed by Nic Jones


Like Basie has already seen the light of day in the CD era as an OJC release, but given its qualities, its reappearance here is welcome anyway. Paul Quinichette's career was perhaps more dogged than aided by the lazy “Vice-Pres" tag that was placed upon him because of his stylistic allegiance to Lester Young. As ever ...

Roy Ayers: West Coast Vibes

Read "West Coast Vibes" reviewed by Nic Jones


Roy Ayers had a career before he had hit records, and this reissue proves the vibraphonist was both well-versed and eloquent within the realm of post-bop jazz. In the company largely of a cast including pianist Jack Wilson and Curtis Amy on tenor and soprano saxophones, Ayers works his way through the kind of programme of ...

Ray Nance: Body and Soul

Read "Body and Soul" reviewed by Jeff Dayton-Johnson


Ray Nance recorded Body and Soul, his first album as a leader, in May 1969, almost thirty years after he took over Cootie Williams' trumpet chair in the Duke Ellington orchestra, but only about two years after Billy Strayhorn's death in May 1967, and mere days after Coleman Hawkins' in May 1969. Nance performed “Take the ...

Harold Land: Take Aim

Read "Take Aim" reviewed by George Harris


Originally recorded in 1960 for Blue Note but not released until 1980, Take Aim, like Harold Land himself, has undeservedly fallen through the cracks. Most famous for his association with the Clifford Brown/Max Roach quintet of the '50s, Land is another unheralded West Coast giant who made a name for himself out here in California, but ...
