Alex Coke & Carl Michel Sextet: Situation
by Jack Bowers
As might be envisioned from a sextet whose membership encompasses harp, vibraphone, flute and pedal steel guitar, the themes on saxophonist Alex Coke and guitarist Carl Michel's third album, Situation, are in large measure thoughtful and atmospheric. And while the music is charming and graceful, its ties to jazz are tenuous at best. ...

Alex Coke & Carl Michel: The Emissary
by Jerome Wilson

The most austere selection is “O Pastor Animarum" by 12th century ...
