Eyot: 557799
by Bruce Lindsay
557799 is the fifth album from Serbian jazz fusion quartet EYOT since its debut, Horizon, was released in 2011.

Chris McCarthy: Still Time to Quit
by Friedrich Kunzmann
Only two minutes into “That's All You Get," the opening track to pianist Chris McCarthy's debut recording for Ropeadope Records, Still Time To Quit, and already it seems that everything that had to be said was said. Maybe that's why at this point the track coincidentally also reaches its end. A savage yet controlled display of ...

Variety is said to be the spice of life and it's also a big plus for music. What stands out on this record is variety of the broadest measure.
