The Uptown Quintet: Live in New York
by Samuel Chell
This 2006 release of an on-location recording features a non-working band of five musicians who live above 96th Street and have studied at the New School or the Manhattan School of Music. The sounds are less suggestive of the conservatory, however, than Rudy Van Gelder's Blue Note recording studio from the late '50s and early '60s, ...

Deidre Rodman / Steve Swallow: Twin Falls
by Celeste Sunderland
The pairing of pianist Deidre Rodman and bassist Steve Swallow may seem unlikely at first, but upon further investigation, it appears to be just right.

Dom Minasi: The Vampire's Revenge
by Florence Wetzel
Dom Minasi's magnum opus, The Vampire's Revenge, is a rich feast of music featuring no less than 22 of contemporary jazz's strongest players. Inspired by Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, songs like Who's Your Dentist? and Just One More Bite show Minasi clearly enjoying the vampire myth--but make no mistake, this two-CD set is a serious project, ...

Don Braden: Workin'
by Ken Franckling
Tenor saxophonist Don Braden works in a variety of contexts. None is more interesting than his Organic Trio with Cecil Brooks III on drums and Philadelphia native Kyle Koehler on organ, recorded live at Brooks' Jersey club Cecil's for Workin', his 13th disc as a leader. This is no soul-tinged chicken shack session, though the playing ...
Mambo Mantis: Everybody Knows Something
by Ernest Barteldes
Do not let the word mambo" in this band's name fool you. There is nothing of the famed Cuban genre on this album, recorded live at the Bowery Poetry Club and ABC No Rio. The group's sound is experimental as it gets--with surprising neurotic sounds and hard rock influences--as heard on the introduction to According to ...
