Harry Allen and Joe Temperley: Cocktails For Two
by Joel Roberts
Swing is the thing on this enormously enjoyable outing by baritone saxophonist Joe Temperley and tenor saxophonist Harry Allen. The album features the 77-year-old Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra stalwart Temperley and the 40-year-old ex-wunderkind Allen leading a superbly sympathetic rhythm section (John Bunch on piano, Greg Cohen on bass and Jake Hanna on drums) in front ...
Kenny Davern: No One But Kenny
by George Kanzler
The album title could stand as a fitting epitaph for clarinetist Kenny Davern, who died of a heart attack in December, 2006 at seventy-one. For no one else played jazz quite like Davern, whose affection for old trad jazz tunes belied a quirky sense of time as singular as Thelonious Monk's and a cavalier attitude toward ...

by Jack Bowers
I recently sent my brother Tom two albums by the same big band and later asked how he liked them. “They’re both quite good,” he said, “but [disc A] is more enjoyable than [disc B] because it’s live; you just can’t capture the power and excitement of a big band in a studio.” Another who endorses ...

From 1974-1980 a series of recordings were made for the Sackville label representing Toronto performances by artists who were key ingredients in the cauldron of avant-garde jazz. The music is now being issued on CD for the first time, in limited editions of 1000 copies. Anthony Braxton was among those who came to town. ...
