Dan Block: From His World To Mine: Dan Block Plays The Music Of Duke Ellington
by Edward Blanco
Bandleader and accomplished reed man Dan Block is an exponent of traditional and swing jazz, and pays homage to the music of Duke Ellington with From His World To Mine: Dan Block Plays The Music Of Duke Ellington.

Dan Block: From His World To Mine: Dan Block Plays The Music Of Duke Ellington
by Bruce Lindsay
Dan Block is an exceptionally talented reed player, a stylish arranger and composer, a skilful bandleader and a valued sideman.

From His World ...
Lauren Hooker: Life Of The Music
by Bruce Lindsay
Singer and pianist Lauren Hooker takes chances on Life Of The Music, her second album. She sets her own compositions up against classics of American music, re-works old favourites and uses some vocal shifts and inflections that other singers might think twice about. And thank goodness she does, because in doing so Hooker has assembled a ...
Lauren Hooker: Life Of The Music
by Dan Bilawsky
In 2007, vocalist Lauren Hooker turned out an impressive debut, Right Where I Belong (Musical Legends, Inc., 2007), which highlighted her solid, yet flexible, voice, and an ability to graft her own lyrics onto familiar instrumental jazz standards. Three years later, Hooker returns with a program that largely focuses on her own lyrics and music, demonstrating ...
Paul Meyers: Paul Meyers Quartet featuring Frank Wess
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
This is a very smooth outing from Paul Meyers, mixing standards--both the rather ripe ("I Cover The Waterfront") and the lesser-known (Billy Strayhorn's “Snibor")--with Meyers originals as showcases for his acoustic nylon string guitar. “Smooth" should not be taken to mean “smooth jazz": there is just the right amount of edge in the musicians' interaction to ...
Paul Meyers: Paul Meyers Quartet featuring Frank Wess
by Bruce Lindsay
Guitarist Paul Meyers' stated intention with Paul Meyers Quartet featuring Frank Wess was to create “a relaxed, straight-ahead jazz CD," and with the assistance of some delightful sax and flute from NEA Jazz Master Frank Wess he has succeeded admirably. The mix of standards and originals is thoughtfully put together and the end result is a ...
