S.O.S.: Looking for the Next One
by John Kelman

Frank Wright: Blues For Albert Ayler
by John Sharpe
Reedman Frank Wright's eponymous first album surfaced on ESP-Disk in 1965, so it is fitting that this historic live recording also appears on the newly-revived imprint, making good its mission of releasing unheard sessions by label stalwarts, alongside newer works.

Joe McPhee: Artistic Sacrifice from a Musical Prophet
by Lloyd N. Peterson Jr.
He could have easily chosen a different path: a more successful one or, perhaps we should say, a more commercial one. But that has never been the style or the character of multi-instrumentalist Joe McPhee. His saint-like humility reflects a gentle and wise creative spirit; his music and poetry are a mirror into the human condition. ...
