Kirk Knuffke: Chew Your Food
by John Sharpe
Originally from Colorado, trumpeter Kirk Knuffke has been based in the Big Apple since 2005. Though he may be best known as a member of drummer Matt Wilson's celebrated Quartet, the brass man also leads his own quartet, with two previous recordings for the prolific Portuguese Clean Feed label, while he and pianist Jesse Stacken also ...
Harris Eisenstadt: Woodblock Prints
by John Sharpe
Canadian drummer/composer Harris Eisenstadt is making a compelling case for complete player status. His name on the CD sleeve does not necessarily predict the contents. Examples include his joyous marriage of jazz and West African rhythms on Jalolu (CIMP, 2004) and Gewel (Clean Feed, 2008), his compositions for large ensembles such as Ahisma Orchestra (Nine Winds, ...
Marilyn Lerner - Ken Filiano - Lou Grassi: Arms Spread Wide
by AAJ Italy Staff
Un disco così non si trova ogni giorno. Vero, è un altro trio piano-contrabbasso-batteria ma sa entusiasmare. La pianista Marilyn Lerner è una musicista dalle vaste vedute, capace di incidere musica nei generi più diversi: mainstream, improv, balcanica, senza che per questo emergano problemi o conflitti. Lo stesso vale per gli altri due partecipanti al progetto, ...

William Hooker: Earth's Orbit
by John Sharpe
William Hooker Earth's Orbit No Business Records 2010 If East Coast is hot and West Coast cool in classic jazz parlance, then composer and drummer William Hooker subverts that tenet with East hot, West hotter in this limited edition, double vinyl set featuring separate bands captured live on ...
Daniel Blacksberg: Bit Heads
by Clifford Allen
It's somewhat surprising that there aren't too many active trombone/bass/drums power trios around, with the model being strongly set in the late 1970s New York scene by such bands as BassDrumBone (trombonist Ray Anderson, drummer Gerry Hemingway, bassist Mark Helias) and the comparable, albeit freer group Brahma, with drummer Barry Altschul. The lack of current 'bone-heavy ...
Howard Riley: Solo In Vilnius
by John Sharpe
No stranger to being alone in the spotlight, Solo In Vilnius is at least the 11th such entry in English pianist Howard Riley's extensive discography. Musically active for more than 40 years, Riley, now in his 60s, enjoys an impressive résumé which name checks the cream of British improvisers, including London Jazz Composers Orchestra, Keith Tippett ...
Curtis Clark: Taagi
by John Sharpe
Recorded live on successive nights in May, 2009 in Texas, Taagi provides a welcome bulletin on under-exposed pianist Curtis Clark. Though born in Chicago, Clark first made his mark in Los Angeles back in the 1970s under the influence of the late pianist/bandleader Horace Tapscott. Since then he has resided in Amsterdam, recording with many of ...
Howard Riley: Solo in Vilnius
by AAJ Italy Staff
Poche parole servono per identificare i giganti. Howard Riley è uno di questi. Praticamente sconosciuto nonostante importanti frequentazioni della migliore musica d'improvvisazione, nonché collaborazioni importanti come quelle con Keith Tippett, Jaki Byard, Lol Coxhill, con la nobile London Jazz Composer's Orchestra o - ai suoi inizi - quella per certi versi rimasta storica con Barry Guy, ...
