Dave Bass: The Trio, Vol. 3
by Troy Dostert
For its third installment, pianist Dave Bass' regular working group has produced another worthwhile document drawing on Bass' many influences, and showing that he also has plenty of his own creativity to offer.

Towner Galaher Organ Trio: Live
by Pierre Giroux
There is a proverb which states “everything old is new again"; it seems perfectly applicable to the latest release by drummer Towner Galaher, Live, on which he gives a tip of the cap to the classic organ trios which were front and center in clubs and on records during the '50s and '60s. Supported by Lonnie ...

Paul Marinaro: Not Quite Yet
by Richard J Salvucci
The cover of the album is vaguely noir, with the urban greenish cast of tungsten film. A sole figure leans slightly against a building, downcast, staring into his soul, and waiting out a lit cigarette when it was still hip to smoke. The guy is Frank Sinatra and the album was In The Wee Small Hours. ...

by Pierre Giroux
Pianist, vocalist and composer Blossom Dearie may have been diminutive in stature and voice but certainly never in talent. She began her career in New York in the mid 1940s and then moved to Paris in the early 1950s to form the vocal group The Blue Stars, which eventually morphed into the Swingle Singers. Returning to ...
Richard Williams: Hollywood Christmas
by Richard J Salvucci
Ready or not, Christmas music is on the way. And this is Christmas music, old school. Do you remember The Andy Williams Christmas Album? Then, as the old joke goes, there may be fire in the hearth, but snow on the roof, because that was 1963, at least the first version. This recording, for ...
