Jerry Garcia Band: Pure Jerry: Jerry Garcia Band - Bay Area 1978
by Doug Collette
Bereft of extensive historical content (or tchotchkes such as the guitar picks that were included in previous Pure Jerry titles) this double-disc composite of four 1978 shows makes a statement solely through the music. Everyone involved in the Jerry Garcia Band lineup, including its prestigious leader, sounds deeply immersed in the group camaraderie which, in turn, ...

Anna Estrada: Obsesion
by Raul d'Gama Rose
When Elis Regina died, most Brazilians thought that the vacuum created by her loss could not be filled. Then along came Rosa Passos and Anna Estrada. The two vocalists did not jostle for a position in the vacant slot that Regina left behind, however both have filled it individually with the extraordinary breadth and scope of ...
Jon Crowley Quintet: Connections
by Bruce Lindsay
On the evidence of its debut, Connections, the New York-based Jon Crowley Quintet has huge potential. The ten tracks, all composed by leader and trumpeter Crowley, are immediately accessible but have sufficient depth and complexity to reward repeated listening. The band's technical ability is uniformly strong, but technique never takes precedence over an emotional connection with ...
Diallo House / Stacy Dillard / Ismail Lawal: Night at the Eclipse
by Warren Allen
Every time a group of sax, bass and drums step to the stage on their own, it amounts to a high-wire balancing act for three. Luckily, these guys have the skills to cross safely to that other end of the tightrope, and keep doing it better and better. They've been establishing themselves in New York for ...
Roberto Magris / Big Band Ritmo Sinfonica Citta di Verona: Restless Spirits
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Even if pianist and composer Roberto Magris could have performed Restless Spirits with a small ensemble, he probably would not have done so. Here is the conundrum: might Magris have created this music in a large ensemble because he intended it to reflect a secret narrative that ponders the journey of the soul? The trick is ...
Kenny & Leah: You and the Night and the Music
by Edward Blanco
A perfect marriage of saxophone and voice, saxophonist Kenny Soderblom and his wife, vocalist Leah McCoy Soderblom, pay tribute to great American jazz standards in a intimate and sensuous performance with You and the Night and the Music. Leah lends her sultry vocals, delivering a host of love songs from the title track to Dancing In ...
Little Buddy: 3 Hour Tour
by Chris M. Slawecki
It might seem like a long journey from a Pennsylvania steel town to Texas, but not if you travel along the electric strings of blues guitarist Mark Kormanik. 3 Hour Tour is Kormanik's sixth CD as the leader of Little Buddy, which also features longtime bandmates Doug Brown on bass and vocals and John ...

The Remote Viewers: Sinister Heights
by Glenn Astarita
Reedmen David Petts and Adrian Northover form the crux of The Remote Viewers, a band that gained notoriety via several albums for the largely avant-garde and progressive jazz-based Leo Records. But this double CD release marks the duo's third release as an Indie record label entity. Here, they employ several instrumentalists, including British free-jazz denizens, bassist ...
