Kate McGarry: Girl Talk

Read "Girl Talk" reviewed by Jeff Dayton-Johnson


There are many reasons to like vocalist Kate McGarry's Girl Talk.There's the lively set list, first of all--a mix of all-too-well-known and too-little-known standards, with a fine Brazilian number thrown in. There's the uniform excellence of the band: witness Gary Versace's idiomatic organ accompaniment on “Girl Talk"; guitarist Keith Ganz--sensitive throughout, but especially on ...

Kate McGarry: Girl Talk

Read "Girl Talk" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


While the world has no shortage of fine female singers, few have the musical depth, sense of passion and artistic ambitions of the divine Kate McGarry. It's doubtful that any other jazz singer could convincingly cover The Cars, weave their way through pianist Fred Hersch's take on Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass, and triumphantly match wits, ...

Kate McGarry: Girl Talk

Read "Girl Talk" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


At a time when it seems that everyone is a jazz singer releasing new music in a male-female distribution of 1 to 10, what is it exactly that separates the merely good singers from the truly great ones. Because of the sheer number of singers and relative high quality of jazz singing today, it is brutally ...

Kate McGarry: Girl Talk

Read "Girl Talk" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Someone should tell vocalists today--at least the ones we see on those TV talent hunts--that singing doesn't have to be some exercise in screaming self-annihilation, that beauty and style is more about composure and command. You could tell them, or you can hip them to Girl Talk, by Kate McGarry.McGarry, a jazz vocalist, has ...

An Open Letter to Musicians: Lemme Hear It!

Read "An Open Letter to Musicians: Lemme Hear It!" reviewed by Dave Sumner


This begins a series of posts intended to give artists, labels, and promoters some insight into how I use the internet to discover and purchase music and how that knowledge might be used to the benefit of the artists. I don't claim to be the prototypical music listener and buyer. I listen to, and ...

Phil Woods - Bill Mays: Phil & Bill, Woods & Mays

Read "Phil & Bill, Woods & Mays" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Californiano, sessantotto anni appena compiuti, una discografia abbastanza smisurata (a suo nome come a fianco di svariati grandi del jazz, oltre a Frank Zappa, e soprattutto a tante voci, da Al Jarreau a Peggy Lee, da Anita O'Day a Frank Sinatra, a Sarah Vaughan), Bill Mays era forse il partner ideale per questo nuovo capitolo della ...

Tim Hagans: The Moon Is Waiting

Read "The Moon Is Waiting" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il trombettista Tim Hagans abbandona l'abituale compagno di strada Bob Belden e si avventura in una escursione in territorio jazz elettrico profumato di rock, alla testa di un quartetto che lo asseconda bene. Sono con lui il chitarrista Vic Juris (che ricordiamo anche alla corte di Dave Liebman), il bassista Rufus Reid e il batterista finlandese ...

Matt Wilson's Arts And Crafts: An Attitude For Gratitude

Read "An Attitude For Gratitude" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Drummer Matt Wilson may be the supreme human confluence of technique, swing, spirit, humor and musicality. Over the past 20 years, Wilson has proven to be one of a select few that can balance an inside/outside aesthetic, often within a single piece of music. He has helped shape the music of Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden, Either/Orchestra, ...
