Read "Mark Corroto's Best Releases Of 2013" reviewed by Mark Corroto


So many records, so little time. This sweet dilemma, I repeat again this year. Below are my top spins for 2013 (in no particular order). I've certainly missed a few gems, and I'll be trying to catch up on those during the cold of winter and probably through early spring... Matana ...

Enjoy Jazz 2013 Heidelberg/Mannheim/Ludwigshafen, Germany November 6-14, 2013 It's always a treat to return to Heidelberg for Enjoy Jazz.

Tampere Jazz Happening 2013

Read "Tampere Jazz Happening 2013" reviewed by John Ephland

You knew things were going to eventually explode, but, of course, the getting there was half the fun. The Danish drum duo Toto was working in tandem in what ...

Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Red Hot

Read "Red Hot" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il giro del jazz in 80 stili! Abbiamo imparato in questi anni a conoscere le strategie creative dei Mostly Other People Do the Killing: grande ironia, una dieta onnivora, la capacità di accendere di colori fluorescenti i linguaggi che siamo soliti immaginare in bianco e nero, un approccio al virtuosismo basato sul paradosso e l'eccesso. Nemmeno ...

Nate Wooley - Peter Evans - Jim Black - Paul Lytton: Trumpet and Drums: Live in Ljubljana

Read "Trumpet and Drums: Live in Ljubljana" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Given the unorthodox instrumentation, there's a little more than meets the eyes and ears on this quartet effort recorded at a jazz festival in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Each musician is highly respected within the progressive and avant jazz communities. Yet the band doesn't bridge the playing field with tireless bashing and cacophonous exchanges, which are components that ...

Various Brits: Just Not Cricket!

Read "Various Brits: Just Not Cricket!" reviewed by Mark Corroto


In the 1972 Monty Python Flying Circus skit “Are You Embarrassed," the announcer reads the lines, “Are you embarrassed easily? I am. But it's nothing to worry about; it's all part of growing up and being British." The announcer goes on to describe embarrassing words like “Shoe" ..... “Megaphone" ..... “Grunties," to test the listener's discomfort ...
