Manu Katche: Playground
by Nenad Georgievski
It's great to hear drummer Manu Katché finally given the spotlight to present his qualities as composer/bandleader. His first album--It's About Time (BMG France, 1992)--was a flop, despite the many popular names participating. Neighbourhood (ECM, 2006), on the other hand, was a work of genius, presenting Katché's best qualities as a composer, arranger and player. It ...

Manu Katche: Playground
by AAJ Italy Staff
Non è facile realizzare un album che sia classico, in senso jazzistico, non banale e capace di uscire dallo stereotipo del filone in cui si inserisce. Playground del batterista francese Manu Katche riesce ad essere queste tre cose insieme. Lungamente al fianco di Peter Gabriel, Sting, Youssou n’Dour e Jan Garbarek, Katche aveva già convinto con ...
Manu Katche: Playground
by Budd Kopman
Part of what makes jazz so fascinating is its stylistic breadth. Indeed, the word jazz is almost synonymous with “that-which-shall-not-be-defined," but labels are a shorthand that can help relate a given release's main characteristics. Playground, drummer Manu Katché's second release as a leader after Neighbourhood (ECM, 2005), resists the application of a label, but “ECM Smooth ...
Manu Katche: Playground
by John Kelman
It may not appear until the fourth track in, but the propulsive “So Groovy" could easily have been the title for the follow-up to Manu Katché's award-winning ECM debut, 2005's Neighbourhood.

Leah Kline: Playground
by Craig W. Hurst
Leah Kline's debut CD certainly is a Playground of fresh and creative new ideas that just simply add up to a lot of fun for the listener. Someone would have to be hard pressed to not like this recording by the Amsterdam-based Kline and her supporting group of Los Angeles-based jazz musicians. What they have assembled ...
