Silent Knowledge / Bladik
by AAJ Italy Staff
Questi due dischi del catalogo Cuneiform, finalmente distribuiti in Italia, meritano un'attenzione particolare. Ci ricordano in primo luogo le doti di Elton Dean, il sassofonista dei Soft Machine e dei Centipede scomparso l'8 febbraio scorso all'età di sessant'anni. Sul solco della celebre Scuola di Canterbury, Dean contibuì a creare un'originale fusione col rock senza esaurirsi in ...
Tra Svizzera e Giappone: percorsi e perlustrazioni sonore dell’elvetica For4ears
by AAJ Italy Staff
L’incontro musicale tra Oriente e Occidente non è solo una questione di strumentazione, né tanto meno di appartenenza anagrafica dei musicisti, improvvisatori, coinvolti nei vari progetti. Oriente e Occidente sono da sempre termini di una questione problematica, sottile, difficile ma al tempo stesso intrigante e insidiosa. Per questo la linea che unisce i diversi progetti e ...
Das Vibenbass: Animals And Robots & Mindwrestling
by Mark Sabbatini
Das Vibenbass, a Seattle quartet performing since 2001, has hit the CD ground running by releasing its first two full-length albums this year. Toss in a live recording downloadable free from the “internet archive" on their website, and it's evident the band is doing a nice job of stamping out a recognizable identity for itself. Hovering ...
Kind of Blue Records - E' blue ma non è solo jazz
by AAJ Italy Staff
E’ apparsa sul mercato il 1° di aprile ma come etichetta non sembra proprio adatta ad essere appesa alla schiena di qualche vittima del famoso scherzo che tutti conosciamo. Anzi, la svizzera Kind of Blue è parsa piuttosto preoccupata di apparire blasfema, scegliendosi questo nome, in un certo senso così equiparandosi al disco forse più famoso ...

Tony Bennett And Bill Evans: The Classic Duets
by Samuel Chell
To capitalize on the renewed interest in Tony Bennett during the year of his attaining octogenarian status, Fantasy has just reissued The Tony Bennett/Bill Evans Album. A remastered edition was released as recently as 2003, but this time around five alternate takes have been added to the disc, one that for many listeners is the only ...
Bridge 61 and Farina/McBride/Gray: The Now & The Never-Heard-Before
by Clifford Allen
To some, what was so interesting and valuable about the nascent North Side Chicago scene in the early to mid 1990s had less to do with particular players than the fact that the scene was about cross-pollination. Figures like reedman Ken Vandermark could be heard amongst the riotous neo-No Wave band The Flying Luttenbachers one night, ...
Kenny Dorham: Trumpeter Laureate
by Samuel Chell
The critic Gary Giddins once wrote that Kenny Dorham's name is “virtually synonymous with 'underrated'." Which raises a question. Is it possible for a musician who has achieved widespread fame for non-recognition to remain “deserving" of the description? Possibly so, if Art Blakey's anointing of Dorham as the “uncrowned trumpet king" is to be taken seriously. ...
