Rich Halley: Back From Beyond

Read "Back From Beyond" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay


The arrival of a new album by saxophonist and field biologist Rich Halley reliably signals a few good things: inventive composition and improvisation; tight, powerful, playing; driving grooves; a sense of humor...and squeak toys. Back From Beyond, credited to the Rich Halley 4, keeps up the pattern.Based in Portland, Oregon, Halley's extensive discography dates ...

Rich Halley 4: Back From Beyond

Read "Back From Beyond" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Tenor saxophonist Rich Halley can be relied upon to rip it up, either live or in the studio. His forte is free jazz that always seems to threaten to power into some steroidal bebop. He has released a string of fine records on the now-dormant Louie Records--including, perhaps the best of these, the no-holds-barred The Blue ...

Rich Halley Quartet: Requiem for a Pit Viper

Read "Requiem for a Pit Viper" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


It must be difficult for saxophonist Rich Halley to find a collaborative horn man who can keep up with him, who can match his free jazz ferocity and full-throttle momentum.

Rich Halley Quartet: Requiem For A Pit Viper

Read "Requiem For A Pit Viper" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay

The Rich Halley Quartet keeps demanding--and deserving--this attention throughout this collection of the tenor saxophonist's original compositions, as it delivers a constantly surprising and inventive music that ranges from a scream to a whisper--with a few squeaks thrown in. The ...

Rich Halley: Requiem for a Pit Viper

Read "Requiem for a Pit Viper" reviewed by Andrew J. Sammut


Rich Halley lists music and nature as his two greatest interests. Judging from Requiem for a Pit Viper, the saxophonist and composer is inspired by the raw power of the natural world, rather than its more peaceful gestures. This album maintains an unrelenting intensity through ten Halley originals that rarely allows a chance to stop and ...
