Josh Berman & His Gang: There Now

Read "There Now" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Josh Berman is a gambler. There Now initially gives the impression that the cornetist's reversion to the music of Eddie Condon and Pee Wee Russell is only a bluff. His gang of young Chicago improvisers weaves in and out of the 1920s, inserting free jazz passages and improvised duos that could not be anticipated in the ...

Pee Wee Russell: Complete Live at Bovi's Town Tavern

Read "Complete Live at Bovi's Town Tavern" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Nella parte finale della sua carriera, il grande, originalissimo clarinettista, da instancabile ricercatore qual era, oltre a esser diventato un astrattista (nel senso ...

Mort Weiss: Raising the Bar: The Definitive Mort Weiss

Read "Raising the Bar: The Definitive Mort Weiss" reviewed by Samuel Chell

by Samuel Chell

In late 2006, clarinetist Mort Weiss told his unusual story to R. J. Deluke in an exclusive interview for All About Jazz, appropriated titled “Mort Weiss: Sets Sail with Clarinet."
