Buck Hill: Relax

Read "Relax" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza


Time has not effaced the grace or diminished the power of Buck Hill, who returns after a fifteen-year absence with this remarkable new recording. The tenor man recruited two old bandmates, Jerry Jones (drums) and John Ozment (Hammond A100), plus Paul Pieper (guitar), to create music that breathes passion and invention into every song. ...

Buck Hill: Relax

Read "Relax" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Relax has an old-school feeling, like a Blue Note album from the sixties. It's a straight-ahead sound, with Buck Hill's brawny, relaxed tenor saxophone in the embrace of a fine organ trio. I compare it to an “album" in part because there's a two-sided feeling to the eight songs. “Side one" opens with a with the ...

Ken Clark Organ Trio: Mutual Respect

Read "Mutual Respect" reviewed by Jim Santella


Getting down and getting funky, Ken Clark heats things up with a hip attitude. His trio provides the spark to get things moving as the program moves dynamically through eclectic moods. Clark's song list, consisting mostly of originals, affords plenty of variety. From slow, romantic R&B to hip-hop stompers, he grooves with spirit. Drummer ...

The Joe Kap Organ Trio: Street Noise

Read "Street Noise" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone


This recording of largely original compositions from the Joe Kap (né Kaplowitz) Organ Trio is a combination of the old and the new, insofar as the genre of organ-guitar-drum groups are concerned. The band well may have been playing the last set at Dupree's Rib Joint, possibly located near the intersection of Myrtle and Bedford Avenues ...

The Joe Kap Organ Trio: Street Noise

Read "Street Noise" reviewed by John Kelman


With the Hammond B-3 organ making a comeback in recent years, it’s surprising how many artists are prepared to lug around these four-hundred pound behemoths; but the numbers are increasing and, while the Hammond’s distinctive sound makes for engaging listening, the number of players who are actually making a modern statement with the instrument can be ...

Joe Kap Organ Trio: Street Noise

Read "Street Noise" reviewed by Jim Santella


The familiar jazz organ trio holds a special place in history, as well as on the contemporary scene. The sound is soft-pedaled and funky, but filled with all the essential elements of good music. Joe Kap takes a melody out of its gift-wrapped package and delivers it to his audience with flowers and ribbons all around. ...
