Trevor Dunn and Shelley Burgon: Baltimore

Read "Baltimore" reviewed by Sean Patrick Fitzell

Though not a Jazz Messengers recording, this original double volume definitely has Blakey's strong personal, percussive stamp. The cover states this is “a ...

Primarily with his Far East Band--with Sang Won Park on the stringed ajeng and kayagum and Yukio Tsuji on the flutelike shakuhachi, later augmented by Joe Daley's tuba--Hwang created an avant-garde take on ...
