Jorma Kaukonen: Live At The Bottom Line

Read "Live At The Bottom Line" reviewed by Doug Collette

Stephen Stills: Live At Berkeley 1971

Read "Live At Berkeley 1971" reviewed by Doug Collette


Given the length and breadth of Stephen Stills' discography--as a solo artist, leader of the Manassas band, and in various collaborations--it's altogether surprising he hasn't done more archival work. But Live At Berkeley 1971 rectifies the neglect, at least to some degree, and might augur well for future releases. This sixty-six minutes (on CD ...

Blood Sweat & Tears: What The Hell Happened to Blood Sweat & Tears?

Read "What The Hell Happened to Blood Sweat & Tears?" reviewed by Doug Collette


The title of this release might rightfully be applied at various junctures of Blood Sweat & Tears' career, but for the purposes of this project, it's particularly apropos to the group's State Department-sponsored tour of 1970 behind the Iron Curtain. Innuendo about this band's hip cachet or lack thereof arising from this jaunt--the main premise of ...

D.B. Shrier: D. B. Shrier emerges

Read "D. B. Shrier emerges" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic


The provenance behind this full-bore blow out recorded in 1967 by Philadelphia tenor sax legend D.B.Shrier differs from most myths in the fact that we now have pure, full-blown proof of what a night in his company sounded like: A scorching combustion of energy, virtuosity and audience adulation. Originally released by Alfa Records in ...

Bobby Cole: A Point of View

Read "Bobby Cole: A Point of View" reviewed by Randy Poe


Frank Sinatra walks into a bar... ...Specifically, he walks into Jilly's, on 52nd Street between Broadway and 8th Avenue. Actually, Jilly's was more of a piano bar/restaurant. Sinatra chose to call it a “bistro." It was right there inside the matchbooks scattered all around the joint—back when people still ate and smoked at the same time—in ...

Retrospect in Retirement of Delay: The Solo Recordings

Read "Retrospect in Retirement of Delay: The Solo Recordings" reviewed by Doug Collette


Solo musical performances are a rare and unusual experience unto themselves for both artist and audience. Whether song-oriented or in improvisational mode, the creator offers the work from a stance of vulnerability in the hope of connecting with the observers in such a way that the intimacy of the moment(s) provides insight into the minds and ...

Hasaan Ibn Ali: Metaphysics: The Lost Atlantic Album

Read "Metaphysics: The Lost Atlantic Album" reviewed by Doug Collette


It has been years since the woefully unsung pianist Hasaan Ibn Ali recorded Metaphysics and, while its circuitous route to release is worth more than a little note, that story seems to have taken precedence over insight into and observation of the music itself. In keeping with its customarily astute archival approach, the Omnivore curating team ...

Hasaan Ibn Ali: Metaphysics: The Lost Atlantic Album

Read "Metaphysics: The Lost Atlantic Album" reviewed by Karl Ackermann


The hard bop, Philadelphia pianist Hasaan Ibn Ali had a short, troubled life. On what was believed his only recording, The Max Roach Trio Featuring the Legendary Hasaan (Atlantic, 1965), the drummer placed Ali's full image front and center, his name in a larger font on the LP cover. Within the Philadelphia jazz community, he was ...
