Miles Donahue: Pocket Prolific

Read "Miles Donahue: Pocket Prolific" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza


Multi-instrumentalist Miles Donahue certainly packs it in when it comes to recording. In 2003, he was inspired enough by the classic American songbook to release a set of four albums which he called Standards: Volumes I-IV. This time around he is more circumspect, releasing just two CDs simultaneously. Donahue is no doubt a man of ideas. ...

The Miles Donahue Quintet: In The Pocket

Read "In The Pocket" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone


In contrast with the contemporaneous release Bounce, In the Pocket shows a different side of the saxonphonist, trumpeter and composer Miles Donahue. Donahue has assembled a bigger combo with even more firepower on this session, including tenor player Jerry Bergonzi, pianist Fred Hersch, bassist Jay Anderson and drummer Jamey Haddad. They are joined by guitarist Kurt ...

Miles Donahue: Bounce

Read "Bounce" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone


The release of two simultaneous albums (Bounce and In the Pocket) gives a rare opportunity to hear this saxophonist/trumpeter and composer in different settings, both showcasing his ability to straight-ahead bebop performances. On half of the tracks on Bounce, Donahue leads a quintet, and on the other half he leads a quartet plus three additional musicians. ...

Miles Donahue: Stranger in Paradise: Standards Vol I

Read "Stranger in Paradise:  Standards Vol I" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


You've got to give the guy extra credit for sheer nerve, simultaneously offering up four CDs of great American Songbook classics. But trumpeter/saxophonist Miles Donahue doesn't need anybody's credit. The four discs stand on their own--collectively or separately. Stranger in Paradise, Volume I opens up with Irving Berlin's "Always," with a bonus: vocals ...

Miles Donahue: In The Pocket

Read "In The Pocket" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Multi-instrumentalist Miles Donahue didn't get serious about jazz until he was forty-five years old. Prior to his belated commitment, he spent nearly twenty years working weddings, functions and lounges--bread and butter jobs to pay the rent and support a family. But when he did make the decision to go for it, he went in body and ...
