Read "Moonstone" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian

by Hrayr Attarian

Thomas Bergeron: Sacred Feast

Read "Sacred Feast" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

Ted Piercefield: Chasing My Dream

Read "Chasing My Dream" reviewed by Nicholas F. Mondello

by Nicholas F. Mondello

Ted Piercefield's Chasing My Dream, as titled, is interesting wordplay. You see, it not only is a highly accurate description of Piercefield's lengthy career in music and his fierce dedication to the art, but, this superb recording is also a musical acknowledgement and salute to one Bill Chase and his eponymous fire-breathing group. ...
