by John Sharpe
Even more than 50 years on, there's still never been anyone quite like Albert Ayler. Or for that matter like this 1964 Quartet, which was one of the few ensembles during his career to match the tenor saxophonist against equally forward thinking peers. Bassist Gary Peacock was fresh from pianist Bill Evans' Trio, cornetist Don Cherry ...

Liebman/Murley Quartet: Live at U of T
by Dan McClenaghan
Veteran jazz-er Dave Liebman and Mike Murley blow their saxophones like kindred souls on Live at U of T. In front of an appreciative audience, fronting an inspired bass/drum team, and no guitar or keyboard in the mix--the music is a mixture of liquid freedom, low flame fire, and relative restraint (the “restraint" thing in consideration ...
Wadada Leo Smith: Najwa
by John Sharpe
Trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith is no stranger to plugged-in performance. Like Ornette Coleman and Miles Davis, his musical systems prove just as applicable to electronic as to all-acoustic environments.

John Bickerton: Submerged
by Karl Ackermann
Pianist and composer John Bickerton has been absent from active recording since his 1999 Shadow Boxes (Leo Records).

Culture Clubs: A History of the U.S. Jazz Clubs, Part II: New York
by Karl Ackermann
Jazz didn't abandon Chicago but its further development only began to take on a distinct personality in the 1960s.
