The Skip Heller Trio: Mean Things Happening In This Land
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
It's increasingly difficult to tell when someone is being ironic or sincere. Skip Heller, more than a little manic and an unquestionably gifted guitarist, might not be able to tell us himself where the sincerity ends and the irony begins on this record. Start with the music. It's an energetic guitar/organ trio date, driven by the ...
The Skip Heller Trio: Mean Things Happening In This Land
by Rex Butters
Like a man possessed, Skip Heller continues his prolific creative flow. His latest trio reconvenes the band which appeared on his last release, Liberal Dose: Chris Spies (organ) and David White (drums, percussion). In addition to the originals, Heller plucks four extremely unlikely covers with wonderful results. While his encyclopedic knowledge of music has provided some ...
Christian McBride: Live at Tonic
by C. Michael Bailey
Bassist Christian McBride detonated a funkfest in New York City last year and documented it digitally on Live at Tonic.

Sex Mob: Sex Mob Does Bond
by Mark Corroto
Exactly, what does this terror-filled world require? Simply stated two words (actually three), Bond, James Bond. Saving the world, or in this case the popular entertainment world, is the band Sex Mob. Their take on the music of James Bond is more Chris Farley then Sean Connery. Where Bond composer John Barry oozed 1960 and 70s ...
