Eugenie Jones: Come Out Swingin'

Read "Come Out Swingin'" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

Michael McNeill Trio: Flight

Read "Flight" reviewed by Budd Kopman

by Budd Kopman

Michael McNeill and his trio (bassist Ken Filiano and drummer Phil Haynes) return after Passageways with the marvelous Flight. The first notes of “Placid Ruffled" indicate McNeill's classical background and compositional intent. The album is extremely well recorded, allowing, at least with headphones, for every overtone and their interactions to be heard clearly (especially ...

Phil Haynes No Fast Food: In Concert

Read "In Concert" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

by Neri Pollastri

Disco doppio registrato dal vivo in due diverse occasioni nel giugno e nell'agosto del 2012, questo lavoro ha nel titolo del progetto, No Fast Food, un emblematico ancorchè metaforico programma: la musica è infatti lontanissima dall'essere preconfezionata e pronta ad essere consumata rapidamente senza attenzione ed è invece costruita attraverso la creativa interazione di un trio ...
