JD Allen: Love Stone
by Dan Bilawsky
Beneath this tough tenor's exterior rests the most tender of spirits. If you need evidence, just spend some time with Love Stone. After carving out his rightful place at the apex with a series of brilliant piano-less trio outings focused on pithy originals, saxophonist JD Allen recently felt the winds of change in ...
Jim Snidero & Jeremy Pelt: Jubilation! Celebrating Cannonball Adderley
by Glenn Astarita
Jim Snidero and Jeremy Pelt celebrate the late, great alto saxophonist Julian 'Cannonball' Adderley. On this release, the band pays homage to the artist's classic quintet, as Pelt's meaty tone rekindles the aura of trumpeter Nat Adderley. The tunes--largely composed by Julian or Nat--capture a portion of the original quintet's setlist, with the festivities enriched by ...

Giacomo Gates: What Time Is It?
by Nicholas F. Mondello
2:02.75. That might have been what longshot “Giacomo" (at 50-1) took to win the Kentucky Derby back in 2005. However, it will take longer--just short of an hour--to realize that this thoroughbred Giacomo rides home a winner with What Time Is It?. Hold the oats and roses and grab the ear buds. Giacomo ...
Giacomo Gates: What Time Is It?
by Jack Bowers
What is it that separates a “jazz singer" from the wannabes? While many people are known as or call themselves jazz singers, only a handful truly merit the name. Giacomo Gates, whose latest album What Time Is It? is his seventh (and fourth for Savant Records), is one of the chosen few. Why? Well, as the ...
Jim Snidero: MD66
by Maurizio Zerbo
Sin dal titolo MD66 mette in evidenza le linee estetiche di questo progetto di Jim Snidero, che intende omaggiare il secondo quintetto davisiano degli anni Sessanta. Le composizioni originali presentano brevi cellule melodiche come volano per una solida trama ritmica, attraversata da un ottimo interplay. Non è un disco che ridefinisce il futuro del ...
Bill O'Connell: Monk's Cha Cha
by Dan Bilawsky
Pianist Bill O'Connell has long been valued for his blazing Latin chops, enlivening bands lead by flutist Dave Valentin and legendary conguero Mongo Santamaria as a sideman and delivering his own burning leader dates on a variety of respected imprints in recent times--Zoho, Challenge, and Savant, to name just three. He's been a steady though occasionally ...
