Jeremy Sassoon: Older And Wiser
by Neil Duggan
UK singer and pianist Jeremy Sassoon has followed a remarkably unusual path.

Saxophone Colossi: An Alternative Top Ten Banging Albums
by Chris May

Arun Ghosh: Primal Odyssey
by Bruce Lindsay
Primal Odyssey, the second album from British/Asian clarinetist and composer Arun Ghosh, is yet more evidence that the Northwest of England is a creative center for some of the most stylish contemporary jazz.
