Joe Fonda, Jesper Zeuthen, Jose Lencastre & Rodrigo Amado

Read "Joe Fonda, Jesper Zeuthen, Jose Lencastre & Rodrigo Amado" reviewed by Maurice Hogue

This is uncompromising music. There are several new albums by saxophonists in this edition that ...

Read "Darius Jones, Thumbscrew, Oaagaada & Kira Kira" reviewed by Maurice Hogue


These two hours are filled with amazing music. Alto saxophonist Darius Jones continues his Man'ish Boy series with his new Legend of E-Boi (The Hypervigilant Eye). I'll be amazed if this doesn't show up on most best-of lists for 2024. It's Darius in his finest form. Thumbscrew's work is impeccable too, and their new Wingbeats continues ...

Brodie West, Anna Högberg & Veryan Weston

Read "Brodie West, Anna Högberg & Veryan Weston" reviewed by Maurice Hogue


Contrasting alto saxophonists highlight this episode.

Another saxophonist, American Seth Trachy, brought along his mentor, the very respected ...
