Red Garland: Swingin’ on the Korner: Live at Keystone Korner

Read "Swingin’ on the Korner: Live at Keystone Korner" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Dismissed as a subpar “cocktail pianist" when he joined Miles Davis' first great quintet in 1955 when Davis had returned from chemical exile, William “Red" Garland would go on to define mainstream jazz piano on a series of recordings (as leader and sideman) taped between 1955 and 1962. Readily identifiable was his easy swing, supreme command ...

Joe Lovano: Miles Davis - 'Round About Midnight

Read "Joe Lovano: Miles Davis - 'Round About Midnight" reviewed by William Ellis


Joe Lovano: Birdland, NYC, 21st September 2014 “Well, I would have to say Miles Davis, 'Round About Midnight (Columbia, 1957). I grew up listening to this recording as a kid and the poetic expression -the ensemble playing between John Coltrane and Miles Davis, Red Garland, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones just captured my ...

Red Garland Trio: Swingin' on the Korner

Read "Swingin' on the Korner" reviewed by Stefano Merighi


Il fiuto di Red Garland, a suo tempo, suggerì a Miles Davis di ingaggiare prima Philly Joe Jones e poi John Coltrane, per formare un simpatico quintetto. Solo per queste intuizioni Garland andrebbe posto su un piedistallo nel mondo del jazz. Ma William Red era anche un gran pianista, realizzatore di una sintesi mirabile tra l'eredità ...

Working the Rhythm Section: Tom Lawton, Lee Smith, and Dan Monaghan

Read "Working the Rhythm Section: Tom Lawton, Lee Smith, and Dan Monaghan" reviewed by Victor L. Schermer


As Duke Ellington's standard goes, “It Don't Mean a Thing if it Ain't Got that Swing." The rhythm section (piano, bass, drums, with guitar and percussion sometimes added) is the core of the typical jazz ensemble. They set the frame for the leader, singer, and soloists and contribute their own solos as well. Even though they ...

Miles Davis: Olympia – Mar 20, 1960

Read "Miles Davis: Olympia – Mar 20, 1960" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


A Totally Subjective History of Jazz, 1945--1968 I am going to over-simplify the history of small-ensemble jazz between the heyday of bebop and the vestibule of fusion using a single catalyst--Miles Davis. Davis was instrumental in or the genesis of five major movements (not including fusion) in jazz where the hinges of these ...

I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Luca Dell'Anna

Read "I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Luca Dell'Anna" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


01. Clifford Brown--Brownie: The Complete EmArcy Recordings (Verve -1989). A mio parere il punto più alto fra i giganti che stanno alla radice del jazz moderno è rappresentato da Clifford Brown. Ogni sua frase nasce già scolpita nella pietra, un'aderenza perfetta fra pensiero e azione. Ascoltando Clifford Brown mi ritorna chiara ogni volta l'importanza della ...
