Edwin G. Hamilton: The Whole World Must Change

Read "The Whole World Must Change" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

Edwin G. Hamilton plays drums, sings, covers organ, adds strings, writes, supplies percussion, provides piano, and includes some vibraphone work on this album. To say he's a musical jack-of-all-trades would be an understatement. But let us leave out the second part of the phrase, because he's actually quite accomplished in most of those categories.

Joshua Bayer Jazz: Six By Five

Read "Six By Five" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

by Dan McClenaghan

Joshua Bayer can't be called a prolific artist in terms of CD releases. The bassist/guitarist has offered up only two previous albums this millennium: Lines and Grooves (Jazzhead Records, 2003) and New Voice: Old Voice (Self Produced, 2006). Both sets grooved nicely, lively mainstream quartet sets, with a saxophone out front riding the waves of surging ...

The Piano & Drums Project: Motion

Read "Motion" reviewed by Mark Sullivan

by Mark Sullivan

Mexican duo The Piano & Drums Project (P&Dp for short) plays extroverted populist jazz in the vein of groups like the Esbjörn Svensson Trio or The Bad Plus--they even include the requisite pop covers, “Head Over Heels" from Tears for Fears and Coldplay's “Trouble." Pianist Javier Reséndiz and drummer Jorge Fernandez produce a full sound: you ...

Harp Happenings: Brandee Younger And Pacific Harp Project

Read "Harp Happenings: Brandee Younger And Pacific Harp Project" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

Harp happenings are relatively rare in jazz, but they are there. And when two highly agreeable and strikingly different harp-centric affairs appear on your doorstep around the same time, it really makes you stop and take notice of the instrument, its potential, and the players who are moving it forward and outward in various directions. Both ...

JMancera: Mancera #5

Read "Mancera #5" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

Contemporary jazz can't compare to its straight-ahead and left-of-center relatives in terms of complexity, weight, and scope, but that doesn't mean it has absolutely nothing to give. The masses who are taken with this form of music are well aware that it offers an escape, giving off thoughts of sunny days, sandy beaches, and starry nights. ...

Alfredo Dias Gomes: Looking Back

Read "Looking Back" reviewed by Jim Olin

by Jim Olin

Alfredo Dias Gomes pays an exquisite homage to the greats that inspired him throughout his career in his album Looking Back, a labor of love to Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, Billy Cobham, and more. His powerful drum beats match every saxophone note and guitar riff. Gomes also bravely adds his signature drum exhibitions to his heroes' ...

Ira Hill: Tomorrow

Read "Tomorrow" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

Ira Hill. Remember that name, for you're likely to see it in print a lot more in the future. While this up-and-comer was still in his late teens when this album was recorded and released, you'd never know that from a blind listen. His debonair delivery, sure-voiced scatting, and all-around taste belie his years. And the ...
