Sebastian Liedke: To Walk In The Past

Read "To Walk In The Past" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

Different people often have different thoughts of what a piano trio should be: some view Oscar Peterson-style groups as the archetype in this category; others, just as easily, point to Bill Evans and feel that his body of work is the alpha and omega when it comes to piano group interaction and chemistry; while younger, rock-leaning ...

Sebastian Liedke Trio: To Walk In The Past

Read "To Walk In The Past" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

by Karl Ackermann

It's possible to identify some of the more acoustic elements of the late Esbjörn Svensson's trio, e.s.t., in Berlin-based, Sebastian Liedke Trio's debut. The bassist's group appears ready to step into a creative breach, uniquely combining a strong sense of melody with imaginative variations. Within its creative process, the trio may be on its way to ...

Dan Adler: Back To The Bridge

Read "Back To The Bridge" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay

by Bruce Lindsay

Back To The Bridge is produced by three talented musicians whose ability to interact, solo, provide rhythmic support and, above all, to groove makes this album a terrific advertisement for the classic organ trio and for the enjoyable straight-ahead jazz it produces. While this is guitarist Dan Adler's second album as leader--following 2009's self-produced All Things ...

Mac Gollehon: Mac Straight Ahead

Read "Mac Straight Ahead" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

Brass man Mac Gollehon means business on Mac Straight Ahead. The ten tracks on this album present Gollehon in a variety of settings and on a variety of instruments...at the same time. While the idea of overdubbing oneself on record is fraught with peril, Gollehon beats the odds. Sometimes he conjures sounds of a full, brassy ...

Jordan Young Group: The Jordan Young Group

Read "The Jordan Young Group" reviewed by David Rickert

by David Rickert

Organ albums have always been the comfort food of jazz. Buying one of the classics from the fifties and sixties, the line-up is almost certain (guitar and/or sax, drums, never a bass), and a bunch of songs that would satisfy some primal need for deep, funky grooves. However, this predictability ensured that a lot of them ...

Argenti & Rosa: Boston Gig

Read "Boston Gig" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

by C. Michael Bailey

When Hank Mobley's “Funk in the Deep Freeze" and Eddie Harris' “Freedom Jazz Dance" are brought close together on a recording, hard bop critical mass occurs, giving rise to music like guitarist Enrico Rosa's “Stress Me" that opens the Argenti/Rosa recording, Boston Gig. But this is a controlled detonation. So breezy and strolling ...

Sebastian Liedke: To Walk In The Past

Read "To Walk In The Past" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian

by Hrayr Attarian

One of the enduring allures of the piano trio is the intimacy it creates, something that German bassist/composer Sebastian Liedke does superbly on his debut, To Walk in the Past. The record consists of 10 modal sonatas with rich texture, painted in dark sounds and lush tones. Eight are composed by Liedke, and ...

Colin Dean: Shiwasu

Read "Shiwasu" reviewed by Edward Blanco

by Edward Blanco

Young New York bassist Colin Dean is adept at playing the music of different genres as his jazz debut Shiwasu demonstrates, with its influences from world music and hip-hop styles. Dean is very comfortable in other genres; in fact after graduating from the New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music, he formed the Roots and Groove ...
