by Marcus O'Dair

A London Jazz Festival 2008Punkt King's Place, London November 22, 2008 Listen to Norway's Sidsel Endresen on record and one assumes all manner of studio trickery: surely her voice is being cut up, reversed, electronically warped? Yet as made clear by the bare stage show that opens tonight's proceedings, ...

Miles Davis All-Stars: Broadcast Sessions 1958-59

Read "Broadcast Sessions 1958-59" reviewed by Stuart Broomer

by Stuart Broomer

Jazz has been shaped in large part by a few great bands; few, however, would challenge the late '50s Miles Davis bands for collective achievement and sheer brilliance and influence at each instrument, with Davis, John Coltrane (tenor), Red Garland (piano), Paul Chambers (bass) and Philly Joe Jones (drums). It was an extraordinary collocation of the ...

Kelly Rossum: Family

Read "Family" reviewed by Jeff Dayton-Johnson

by Jeff Dayton-Johnson

Minneapolis trumpeter Kelly Rossum's previous release, the excellent Line (612 Sides, 2007) was in some ways as abstract and linear as its title. Family, fittingly, is as comforting and warm as its predecessor was austere--but also, appropriately, slightly bittersweet and elegiac.Partly, the difference is due to the presence of pianist Bryan Nichols. Line is ...

Sean Noonan: Being Brewed By Noon

Read "Being Brewed By Noon" reviewed by Jeff Dayton-Johnson

by Jeff Dayton-Johnson

Few musicians since Miles Davis have had such a penchant for boxing as drummer Sean Noonan--the CD photos for Being Brewed by Noon show him bedecked in all the trappings of the sport, and he boxes with a pumpkin-headed monster in the video version of “Pumpkinhead Part 2" in the accompanying DVD.This new record ...

Claude Pauly: Mind Meets Matter

Read "Mind Meets Matter" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

Legions of saxophonists were mesmerized by the sound of Lester Young and Charlie Parker and to this day, John Coltrane; for trumpeters, Miles Davis continues to ensnare many, and for fusion guitarists John McLaughlin and Allan Holdsworth continue to fascinate. As a bright light does moths, they are sucked in, and if not careful, their own ...

Holiday Gift Guide 2008

Read "Holiday Gift Guide 2008" reviewed by Jeff Fitzgerald, Genius

by Jeff Fitzgerald, Genius

The holidays are a special time around the Geniusdome. Luca Brasi, my trusted associate and parakeet, goes all out decorating his cage (featured in this month's Perch Pride magazine). My usual stacks of death threats and hate mail start arriving in festive green and red envelopes. And the ghost of Elvis starts singing actual Christmas songs, ...

Bevort - Schmidt: Playground + 1

Read "Playground + 1" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

Playground + 1 is an apt name for this impressive release by this Danish quartet led by saxophonist/vocalist Pernille Bevort and pianist Marie Louis Schmidt, as in many ways a playground bears analogy to a jazz group. In both, freedom exists within boundaries and individual expression thrives within a group identity. There is a collective dependency ...

Jan Johansson: From Small Acorns...

Read "Jan Johansson: From Small Acorns..." reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

Upon hearing the news and in a state of disbelief, Randi Hultin the legendary Norwegian jazz journalist rang pianist Reinhold Svensson who confirmed the worst: “Yes. Swedish jazz has just died."1 Reinhold's reaction to the death in a car accident of fellow pianist Jan Johansson whilst melodramatic reflected Jan Johansson's importance in the contemporary Swedish jazz ...
