The Brothers Brown: The Brothers Brown: Dusty Road

Read "The Brothers Brown:  Dusty Road" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

by C. Michael Bailey

There is really only so much that can be done with the traditional 12-bar blues form. It was that limitation that helped give rise to rhythm & blues and soul music and cross-pollinated jazz and country & western. While fun to consider, it is a fool's endeavor to try and draw a straight line through these ...

The Andrew Allen Trio: Live! from the Cantina: A Star Wars Jazz Tribute

Read "Live! from the Cantina: A Star Wars Jazz Tribute" reviewed by Jim Olin

by Jim Olin

The universal appeal of the Star Wars soundtrack cannot be denied. It has become so iconic that any reimagining of its music is sure to be highly scrutinized.

Ruben Machtelinckx & Linus: Belgian Experimental Music, Strings Attached

Read "Ruben Machtelinckx & Linus: Belgian Experimental Music, Strings Attached" reviewed by Mark Sullivan

by Mark Sullivan

Belgian guitarist/composer Ruben Machtelinckx has built an impressive catalog of recordings as a leader since graduating from the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp in 2010. He tends to work in groups with no drummer, a chamber jazz approach that suits his lyrical, sometimes minimalist compositions well. His guitar style is tasteful and devoid of flashy pyrotechnics: even ...

Chris Klaxton: Collage

Read "Collage" reviewed by James Nadal

by James Nadal

With each release, the current crop of young lions demonstrate they have what it takes to come up with novel ideas, keeping the music renewed. Since his 2014 debut of “Starcode,"--a foray into cosmic jazz--trumpeter Chris Klaxton has remained perpetually engaged and appears not to slow down on Collage , a patchwork of progressive jazz injected ...

Kim Nazarian: Some Morning

Read "Some Morning" reviewed by Dr. Judith Schlesinger

by Dr. Judith Schlesinger

Kim Nazarian is one of a kind. Sure, there are other singers with lovely voices, great ears and impeccable time, but not many as warm and open on stage; there are even fewer who can phrase a lyric the way she does, so that you believe every word. A founding member of the New York Voices, ...

Read "Voyager" reviewed by Jakob Baekgaard

by Jakob Baekgaard

Flux is a project from Danish drummer and composer Thomas Albæk Jakobsen. In 2013, he released the album Relations. Voyager is the follow-up and as the name implies, it is an adventurous album that explores many moods, but the tone is predominantly lyrical. An important addition to the group is the experienced pianist ...

Dave Bryant: The Garden of Equilibria

Read "The Garden of Equilibria" reviewed by Dave Wayne

by Dave Wayne

As one of the few keyboardists to perform and record with Ornette Coleman on a consistent basis, Dave Bryant stands alongside the likes of Geri Allen and Paul Bley. Yet, Bryant is not nearly as well-known. A Berklee graduate who studied privately with Coleman starting in 1983, Bryant's first appearance on record was with the trio ...
