Danny Fox Trio: Wide Eyed
by Dave Wayne
So many jazz piano trios, so little time! With Wide Eyed, the Danny Fox Trio proves very definitively that they are worthy of your attention. Fox' wickedly humorous, tightly-conceived, multi- stylistic compositions and his trio's remarkably sensitive interplay are completely attention-grabbing. One listen was enough to make me a believer. Like a lot of the more ...

Pete Robbins Transatlantic Quartet: Live in Basel
by AAJ Italy Staff
Pete Robbins, sassofonista e compositore di Brooklyn, non trova ancora alcun riscontro in Italia, a dispetto delle numerose tournèe europee effettuate. Leader di differenti formazioni, in grado di proporre sguardi antitetici al jazz odierno, Robbins con il Transatlantic Quartet sviscera una musica carica di ricchezza armonica, ritmicamente leggera e tonica, brillante per qualità solistica, bene espressa ...
Pete Robbins Transatlantic Quartet: Live In Basel
by Mark Corroto
Like most modern jazz players, alto saxophonist Pete Robbins works in multiple bands, playing varying styles and disciplines of this thing called jazz. Sounds reasonable, yes? But, thirty years ago this wasn't possible. Musicians, listeners, and jazz critics (let's not leave them out) had to take sides, choose categories and labels to classify and compartmentalize their ...
