The New Vision Sax Ensemble: Musical Journey Through Time

Read "Musical Journey Through Time" reviewed by Roger Farbey

by Roger Farbey

Hailing from South Florida, this enterprising quartet was instigated by baritonist Melton R. Mustafa in 1999. There aren't actually that many saxophone-only quartets around, although 29th Street Saxophone Quartet and World Saxophone Quartet are two that spring to mind, and both had an influence on this quartet. Aside from the lively interpretation of Bobby ...

Rahul Mukerji: Ma De Re Sha

Read "Ma De Re Sha" reviewed by Geno Thackara

by Geno Thackara

From the first glance at his debut album, Rahul Mukerji makes clear that one of his chief qualities is an open mind. The cover reflects both sides of his background (born in India and now based in the eastern US) and the music within follows suit. His expressive guitar playing through Ma De Re Sha demonstrates ...

Greg Duncan & The Individuation Quintet: Unification

Read "Unification" reviewed by Troy Dostert

by Troy Dostert

Jazz musicians derive inspiration from all kinds of sources--but there probably aren't many who are inclined to build an entire series of songs around concepts connected to Jungian psychology. Trumpeter and composer Greg Duncan is quite earnest in this endeavor, however, and on this release he gives musical expression to a number of aspects of Carl ...

Phat Phunktion: Live at the High Noon

Read "Live at the High Noon" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

If you have an abiding appetite or innate taste for old school funk a la Tower of Power, then Phat Phunktion is right in your wheelhouse. This band is poetry in motion-constantly-but without the off-putting histrionics and faux showmanship that so often undermines the impact of the musicianship. Consequently, as with “Don't Destroy the ...
