The Naked Future: Gigantomachia

Read "Gigantomachia" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza


Arrington de Dionyso (bass clarinet, contralto clarinet) transfuses a relentless energy into his music. He is a restless character driven to manipulate sound and seek new dimensions. He wails and he squeals and he soars high into the atmosphere, but he also gets down to the plain, exposing his ability to mark a linear trajectory. Even ...

Sun Ra: Sun Ra Featuring Pharoah Sanders & Black Harold

Read "Sun  Ra Featuring Pharoah Sanders & Black Harold" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose


Sun Ra featuring Pharoah Sanders & Black Harold is a near mythical document of the astral traveling Arkestra. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, this recording came a year before the now historic and certainly definitive Arkestra records, Heliocentric Worlds Vol. 1 & 2 (ESP, 1965) and Magic City (Saturn, 1965) that came hot on ...

Ronnie Boykins: The Will Come, Is Now

Read "The Will Come, Is Now" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose


For Ronnie Boykins, Sun Ra's bassist, The Will Come, Is Now brings to a close a remarkable sojourn that stretched from his galactic showcasing with the Arkestra at the Judson Hall performances of 1964 to an intellectual deconstruction of bebop. During the years that followed, Boykins appeared with Sam Rivers and was also heard at Ornette ...

Andratx: Live

Read "Live" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The Nordic jazz trio of Jonas Kullhammar, Kresten Osgood and Ole Morten Vågan is the type of super group that keeps the jazz tradition alive, not in the sense of an institution as much as a provocateur praxis. Andratx Live is its second release following a self-titled record on Moserbie in 2007. The three ...

Bassist-Composer Charnett Moffett's "The Art of Improvisation" CD Out Today on Motema Music

Bassist-Composer Charnett Moffett's "The Art of Improvisation" CD Out Today on Motema Music

"Moffett is a hypnotic performer. Playing the upright and the electric bass and accompanied only by piano and drums, he mesmerizes with a series of propulsive minimalist grooves..." --DETAILS “This spirited and soulful recording comes highly recommended, especially to those who tire of the less substantive, flashy, speed king quotient prevalent in far too many other ...

Charlie Munro: Eastern Horizons

Read "Eastern Horizons" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian


The statement that jazz music has universal appeal is a well-worn cliché, but like most, a very true one. This is no more evident than in Eastern Horizons, a long out-of-print classic from Australian cellist and multi-reed player Charlie Munro, now available on CD. Recorded in 1967, it is considered to be a landmark of Australian ...

Read "Sun Ra: Featuring Pharoah Sanders and Black Harold" reviewed by John Sharpe


Sun Ra Sun Ra: Featuring Pharoah Sanders and Black Harold ESP-Disk 2009 Any newly available, 1960s vintage Sun Ra would be cause for celebration, so ESP's unearthing of 45 minutes of well-recorded stereo is wonderful indeed. Five new pieces supplement the six tracks which made up the previously ...

Jonas Kullhammar Quartet: The Half Naked Truth 1998-2008

Read "The Half Naked Truth 1998-2008" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Sometimes self indulgence is worth it. It is not decadence or overt extravagance for the Jonas Kullhammar Quartet to release an eight-CD boxset on the tenth anniversary of their association. In fact, the success of The Half Naked Truth 1998-2008 could result in inquiries into the remainder of the 40 hours of live recordings and session ...
