Bobby Hackett: The Complete Capitol Bobby Hackett Solo Sessions

Read "The Complete Capitol Bobby Hackett Solo Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


For a myriad of reasons, it seems that the audience which supports a major portion of jazz music’s current fortunes knows little about the mainstream artists of the ‘40s and ‘50s. It’s as if anything that occurred before Charlie Parker hit becomes lost in the shuffle. Sure, these fans may be familiar with Duke Ellington or ...

Various Artists: The Classic Columbia Condon Mob Sessions

Read "The Classic Columbia Condon Mob Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


As documented over the past century, the jazz message can be a varied and diverse thing, encompassing everything from the blues to the avant-garde. This is not to say that some styles haven’t been more popular than others. Clearly, the swing music of Benny Goodman and Count Basie rings truer for the average jazz fan than ...

Read "The Complete Vee Jay Paul Chambers/Wynton Kelly Sessions 1959-61" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


Following hard on the heels of Mosaic’s already acclaimed Vee-Jay set collecting early works from Wayne Shorter and Lee Morgan, we get The Complete Vee Jay Paul Chambers-Wynton Kelly Sessions, a superlative companion piece that sets straight material that has been issued and reissued in haphazard form for many years now. In addition to a pair ...

Lee Morgan/Wayne Shorter: The Complete Vee Jay Lee Morgan-Wayne Shorter Sessions

Read "The Complete Vee Jay Lee Morgan-Wayne Shorter Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


It’s unlikely that we’ll ever again see the kind of concentrated intensity and sheer amount of music amassed as that which entered the jazz lexicon during the ‘50s and ‘60s. Not only does there seem to be less of an interest in the music by fans and musicians alike, but also the precipitous nature of the ...

Various Artists: The Columbia Jazz Piano Moods Sessions

Read "The Columbia Jazz Piano Moods Sessions" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


In so many ways, the piano trio is really one of the most perfect combinations in jazz. In the right hands, the impression of a much larger group is possible and various combinations of each instrument allow for freshness and variety. Knowing a good thing when they heard one, the magic of the piano trio was ...

Johnny Hodges: The Complete Verve Johnny Hodges Small Group Sessions 1956-1961

Read "The Complete Verve Johnny Hodges Small Group Sessions 1956-1961" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


You know, things just ain’t what they used to be. There was a time when the average blue-collar worker could stay with a job 30 or 40 years without so much as a care. The same held true for many musicians who happened to be caught in the orbit of Duke Ellington’s mercurial jazz institution. For ...
