The Catz in the Hatz: Resilience

Read "Resilience" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Lo smooth jazz non è proprio il massimo dell'innovazione, legato com'è alle aspettative di un pubblico che di solito si trova ad ascoltarlo negli ascensori dei grandi magazzini. Un incentivo per l'acquisto, rilassante anche per chi si innervosisce ascoltando la new age. I Cats in the Hatz riescono, ed è un'impresa titanica!, a firmare un disco ...

Read "Blues For Breakfast" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone

by Michael P. Gladstone

Blues For Breakfast, the third album from vocalist Mary Foster Conklin, is a tribute to the music of Matt Dennis, who died in 2002 at the age of 88.

Elliott Caine Quintet: Blues From Mars

Read "Blues From Mars" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Da poco pubblicato sul mercato statunitense, Blues from Mars è un CD che rende pienamente merito alla ragguardevole cifra espressiva di Elliott Caine, talento emergente della scena jazz californiana.

Mary Foster Conklin: Blues for Breakfast: Remembering Matt Dennis

Read "Blues for Breakfast: Remembering Matt Dennis" reviewed by Jack Bowers

Before scoffing, remember “Angel Eyes," “Will You Still Be Mine," “Everything Happens to Me," “Violets for Your Furs," “Let's Get Away from It All," ...

by Michael P. Gladstone

File under: Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers (with some variations). Los Angeles trumpeter and bandleader Elliott Caine's fiery third album, Blues From Mars, features a combo that ranges from quartet to septet. At least half of the album reflects the musical world of Blakey: a leader who plays very much in the style of Lee ...

Elliott Caine: Blues from Mars

Read "Blues from Mars" reviewed by Jim Santella

by Jim Santella

As advertised, Elliott Caine brings back the '60s Blue Note style of straight-ahead jazz with this trumpet-led ensemble of veterans. Nine original compositions and one jazz standard provide a soulful program for groupings of four to seven players. The numbers are just right; the trumpeter finds a rhythmic groove with each lineup and continues to create ...
