Una gemma Soft Machine per il quarantennale Cuneiform
by Mario Calvitti
Non sono molte le etichette indipendenti che possono permettersi di festeggiare il quarantesimo anniversario dalla loro fondazione; ancora meno quelle che possono parimenti fregiarsi di un catalogo di tutto rispetto, ricco di artisti e opere di livello assoluto. È questo il caso della Cuneiform Records, con sede a Silver Spring nel Maryland fondata nel 1984 da ...

Graham Collier: Down Another Road @ Stockholm Jazz Days ’69
by Chris May
In 1969, when the composer and bassist Graham Collier took his sextet to Stockholm Jazz Days to give a live performance of their album Down Another Road (Fontana, 1969), the presence of a British band onstage at a European jazz festival was exceptional. The idea that British musicians would one day have their names on the ...
Soft Machine: Facelift France and Holland
by Maurizio Comandini
Sotto l'ombrello robusto chiamato Soft Machine si nascondono in realtà parecchie band. All'inizio l'interesse del gruppo, nato nel 1966 in quel di Canterbury (anche se loro non vogliono essere considerati come esponenti del cosiddetto Canterbury Sound), era per una sorta di pop-rock patafisico, che poi ha iniziato a dilatarsi verso la psichedelia, il rock progressivo, il ...
Keith Tippett: 100 Best Foots Forward
by Duncan Heining
From the Albert Hall at twenty-two with a fifty-piece band to picking potatoes to make ends meet a decade later, Keith Tippett's life in music could sum up many a jazz career. After a grim '80s, things now look better for the composer, pianist and bandleader. “What I'm about to say is ridiculous but it was ...
King Crimson: Sailors' Tales 1970-1972
by John Kelman
If it's a fundamental truth that adversity can sometimes bring the absolute best, creatively speaking, out of music and the people who make it, then the roughly 23 months following the release of King Crimson's classic 1969 debut, In the Court of the Crimson King (Island)--and, after a single North American tour, the breakup of its ...
Julie Tippetts: Didn't You Used To Be Julie Driscoll?
by Duncan Heining
The respect in which Julie Tippetts is held by her fellow musicians and fans is truly heartening--and truly deserved. Back in the late sixties, then Julie Driscoll, she gave up a very different career trajectory in music, one that had begun with Steampacket and continued with Brian Auger & The Trinity, to follow a journey characterised ...
Intervista a Roberto Bellatalla
by Daniele Vogrig
Se i concetti di fraternità e universalità da sempre caratterizzano il jazz in tutte le sue forme, senza dubbio e a buon diritto Roberto Bellatalla ne può essere considerato uno dei massimi ambasciatori. Amsterdam, Londra, Johannesburg. Quaranta anni di storia (e di storie), poi il ritorno a casa. Ammesso e non concesso che ...
Larks' Tongues in Aspic (40th Anniversary Series Box)
by John Kelman
The idea of a 15-disc box set to commemorate the release of what was, in 1973, a single vinyl LP clocking in at a mere 46 minutes might seem a tad excessive, but when you're talking King Crimson and the seminal Larks' Tongues in Aspic, it's a whole other story. Beyond being an important addition to ...
