The UNL Jazz Orchestra: The Good Life
by Jack Bowers
The UNL in question is the University of Nebraska-Lincoln whose Jazz Orchestra has taken so many emphatic steps forward under director Paul Haar that it deserves to be mentioned in the same breath with such elite programs as North Texas, Miami, Northern Iowa and a host of others. On its fourth CD, The Good Life, recorded ...
Analog Son: Black Diamond
by Joe Gatto
Jordan Linit and Josh Fairman created Analog Son around a studio project involving the Shady Horns, Ryan Zoidis and Eric Bloom (Lettuce/Soulive), and Joe Tatton (New Mastersounds). Since conception the band has now recorded three records with 30 amazing musicians--their 2014 debut, Analog Son, and one of the best albums of 2015, Stomp & Shout. And ...
Brahja Waldman: Wisdomatic
by Vincenzo Roggero
Avevamo conosciuto Brahja Waldman su queste pagine attraverso Sir Real Live at Resonance album registrato dal vivo nell'agosto del 2013 a Montreal, un gioiellino di scrittura e buon gusto interpretativo. Lo ritroviamo dopo tre anni, questa volta in studio, con Wisdomatic lavoro che conferma appieno le ottime impressioni suscitate dall'album d'esordio. Una meravigliosa souplesse pervade tutte ...
Dog Leg Dilemma: Not This Time
by Franz A. Matzner
A sonic cornucopia, Canadian electric jazz quartet Dog Leg Dilemma's debut Not This Timeunfolds like a deconstructed buffet. Bits and pieces of musical genres drop in and out of the album's seven compositions with John Woo freneticism, combining at seemingly random intervals as if someone swept the cutting room floor of a recording studio and then ...
Josh Green & The Cyborg Orchestra: Telepathy & Bop
by Jerome Wilson
Joshua Green is an award-winning composer who earns his living as Music Supervisor for ITV America, writing soundtracks for various reality television shows and commercials. On this CD he shows off his more creative side, putting together a set of large ensemble works that draws equally from jazz and contemporary classical music. Green mashes ...
Jazz Is Phsh: He Never Spoke A Word
by Doug Collette
Phish prefer not to be compared to the Grateful Dead in any respect, which is understandable up to a point, yet it's fair to say each band's respective legacy has its own momentum including twists and turns of evolution that inevitably result in parallels and intersections illuminating the process(es). So it is that Jazz ...
David Wright: Morph
by Tyran Grillo
Anyone craving that warm roundedness of 1980s-era Pat Metheny will feel right at home stepping to the wheelhouse of guitarist David Wright, whose Phonograph Team Project has knocked one out right out of the park with Morph. And yet, as the apt title of this second album from Wright's simpatico quartet implies, the Metheny element is ...
Diane Peters, Andrea Ponzoni: CafeAmaro
by Angelo Leonardi
I termini con cui usiamo definire le forme musicali sono sempre meno efficaci quando entriamo in quei territori di confine dove convivono nu-jazz, ambient, lounge, elettronica e strumentazione acustica. Il compito è ancor più difficile quando in un disco come questo ogni traccia si presenta con una propria identità, offrendo un mix cangiante e fantasioso.
Myles Wright: Manhattan EP
by Troy Dostert
For evidence that the big-band tradition is alive and well, look no further than this release from composer and arranger Myles Wright. His second self-produced recording after 2015's LA EP, he's shifted his focus to the other coast this time, and with a top-flight crew of New York musicians to perform four ambitious, infectious charts, it's ...

by Edward Blanco
A native of State College, PA and long-time fixture in the small cities, college towns and regional area jazz scene, saxophonist and educator Rick Hirsch sought to promote and celebrate this overlooked part of the musical community by drawing out twenty of his favorite small-town musician-friends and record in the Pocono Mountains. The result, the audacious ...
