Frank Kimbrough: Play

by Chris May
June 1, 2006

Recorded with no rehearsal and just five hours of studio time, Play is something of a departure for post bop-to-free pianist Frank Kimbrough. Unlike almost all of his previous albums, it's a fly by the seat of your pants affair with essentially a pickup group, albeit one of the highest calibre. The pastel, vivacious and lyrical ...

Fran: Play

by Jerry D'Souza
January 22, 2005

If technique and imagination are the spirit of improvisation, then the François Carrier Trio has a brimful. Here are three musicians whose travelogue would make the most jaded witness sit up and take notice, attention and marvel at the way they scope the terrain and then mark it with their personal landmarks. What they construct is ...

December 1, 2004

It may not come as a complete surprise to listeners who have been following Canadian saxophonist François Carrier's work, but his new trio record has a very odd sense of coherence. It's odd for two reasons: one, because Play was compiled from a total of seven different appearances during the trio's 2000 Canadian tour, at locations ...

Uffe Steen: Play

by Jack Bowers
November 1, 2001

Guitarist Uffe Steen is one unmelancholy Dane. If that sounds like a left--handed compliment, well, he does play left--handed. And does he ever Play! Bluesy cascades of sound, single--note or chordal, fly off his fretboard like squadrons of worker bees beaming in on one's verdant flower garden. This concert performance in Aarhus catches Steen's trio (bassist ...

Uffe Steen: Play

by David Adler
July 1, 2001

Uffe Steen, the 47-year-old Danish guitarist, rips it up on this new live record, culled from three European performances in mid-September of last year. Steen is joined by his countryman Lennart Ginman on double bass and none other than Adam Nussbaum on drums. Nussbaum, of course, has logged many hours backing major American axemen like Mike ...
