Read "Chitarristi jazz in Italia: alcuni esempi" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

La chitarra è sicuramente uno degli strumenti più versatili che esistano, e sono pressoché infinite le possibilità espressive che offre ai musicisti che la sappiano utilizzare. Molti però non ne sfruttano le enormi potenzialità, preferendo limitarsi a precorrere strade già battute. Scelta di per sé non censurabile, purché sostenuta da reali esigenze espressive e da un ...

Ristampe Telarc

Read "Ristampe Telarc" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Eccelso livello tecnico delle incisioni e nomi di gran richiamo. Sono queste le caratteristiche principali del catalogo Telarc (distribuito dalla IRD), volto alla riproposizione degli stili jazzistici più codificati. A questa estetica di fondo vanno ricondotti i sei CD presi qui in esame, che nell’insieme non brillano certo per originalità. Li pervade in compenso un entertainement ...

Jackie McLean: It's Time; Consequence

Read "Jackie McLean: It's Time; Consequence" reviewed by Francis Lo Kee

by Francis Lo Kee

Jackie McLean, one of jazz' most painful losses this past year, had an unmistakable sound: a slightly-sharp-of-center intonation, percussive phrasing and a boundless, thoughtful energy to lift you up out of any depressive state. These are two CDs of a period when he was at the height of his powers, previously issued on the Mosaic box ...

Read "Jam Session Vol. 17 + Jam Session Vol. 18" reviewed by Ken Dryden

by Ken Dryden

Studio jam sessions are still alive and well, though it sometimes takes a while for them to be issued due to economic reasons. But Steeplechase producer Nils Winther's interest in documenting spontaneous meetings of talented musicians deserves praise, demanding single takes and no rehearsals to keep the music fresh and the players on their toes.
