The Dude Abides

Read "The Dude Abides" reviewed by Mark Corroto

Actually, The Dude said the “Eagles" (and I guess I'm obliged to agree with him), but for me the Dead seem to always get under ...

Rodrigo Amado's Motion Trio + Jeb Bishop: The Flame Alphabet

Read "The Flame Alphabet" reviewed by John Sharpe


Remember free-bop? While there's no hard and fast definition, the term was used to encompass jazz boasting a written head, often at rapid bebop tempo, which subsequently opened up harmonically and rhythmically, but without straying completely off the map.

Like the three rivers of Pittsburgh, where the Monongahela and Allegheny Rivers join to create the Ohio River, or Sangam, India where the Ganges, Yamuna and Saraswati meet, the music of the Motion ...
