Savoldelli - Casarano - Bardoscia: The Great Jazz Gig In The Sky
by Roger Farbey
There have been many tribute albums to great rock records but perhaps fewer in a jazz idiom. Two notable ones were Mike Westbrook's Off Abbey Road and Sandy Brown's Hair At It's Hairiest.

Jazz & Beyond: Re-interpretation Of "The Dark Side Of The Moon" By Savoldelli, Casarano and Bardoscia
There’s an old joke among instrumentalists: What do you call someone who hangs around with musicians? Answer: A singer. While this stereotype is overgeneralized to the point of being offensive, it is sadly too often the case that vocalists, particularly in the realm of mainstream commercial music, lack the deep musical knowledge of their instrumental counterparts. ...

Stick Men featuring David Cross: Stick Men + David Cross: Midori
by Geno Thackara
It was a short-lived but perfect pairing. Stick Men is an inventive rock trio, progressive in the truest sense of the word, including current King Crimson members Tony Levin and Pat Mastelotto and rounded out by the always-mercurial Markus Reuter. David Cross had served as Crimson's violinist in their early '70s jazzy-avant-proto-metal phase (though his tenure ...

Dewa Budjana: Hasta Karma
by Chris M. Slawecki
In the mid-1990s, Gary Burton organized sessions that truly deserved to be called “all-star"--teaming the ace vibes player with guitarist Pat Metheny, pianist Chick Corea, bassist Dave Holland and drummer Roy Haynes--and which resulted in the acclaimed Like Minds (1998, Concord). With all respect due to the amazing credentials of Burton and friends, Dewa Budjana's Hasta ...
