Chuck Owen and the Jazz Surge: Within Us

Read "Within Us" reviewed by Jerome Wilson

by Jerome Wilson

Florida's Chuck Owen has been a jazz educator for over 40 years, led his big band, The Jazz Surge, for 25 years and earned seven Grammy nominations along the way, so he cannot be called an unknown. Still, it seems that he is nowhere as well known as he should be, going by the quality of ...

Emma-Jean Thackray: Yellow

Read "Yellow" reviewed by Jim Trageser

by Jim Trageser

Even in the late 1970s, Chuck Mangione was already taking soul-jazz and moving it further into an R&B orbit (and taking heat from jazz purists for supposedly “selling out"), and in so doing exposing lots of pop fans to ...

Empathy

Read "Empathy" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

In a fifty-year, on-off musical relationship that began with a jam session in 1967 and that deepened in New York's loft scene of the early '70s, Dave Liebman and Richie Beirach have made some remarkable music together. Their first recorded collaboration was on Liebman's First Visit (Philips, 1973). Liebman returned the compliment on Beirach's ...

Chick Corea Akoustic Band: Live!

Read "Live!" reviewed by Jim Worsley

by Jim Worsley

A posthumous review of a live record sounds like an oxymoron. Particularly when it seems that Chick Corea was with us only yesterday. The sound of this record is lively, bright, and imbued with a richness of colors. The trio of Corea, bassist John Patitucci, and drummer Dave Weckl can take your breath away in an ...

Read "Jazz Inside And Out: Select Posts from 2013-2015" reviewed by John Goodman

by John Goodman

Here's a selection of posts from my now-discontinued blog, Jazz Inside and Out. I started writing it in summer 2013 and persisted for about six years. As 2016 rolled around, like many others I got quite taken over by politics, and my posts reflected that. Readership went up, jazz took a sabbatical. Politics and ...

Those discs have now, in autumn 2021, been supplemented by the Swiss-based ezz-thetics label's magnificent Chasin' The Trane Revisited. Before examining the new ...
