Attarian's Dozen: The Twelve Best Recordings from 2018
by Hrayr Attarian
The year 2018 was, musically speaking, a good year. The label Pi Recordings did it again with six magnificent albums, three of which made it in my top twelve.

Steve Coleman: Live at Village Vanguard Vol. 1 (The Embedded Sets)
by Karl Ackermann
Decades after he had migrated from Chicago to New York to briefly play in the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra, saxophonist/composer Steve Coleman took to the Village Vanguard stage that Jones and Lewis had occupied for more than twenty years.
