Believers: Hard Believer

Read "Hard Believer" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


Veterano della scena downtown newyorchese (da ricordare almeno il Dave Douglas Tiny Bell Trio, il quartetto Pachora con Jim Black, Chris Speed e Skuli Sverrisson, le collaborazioni con Carla Bley's Escalator Over the Hill, Charlie Haden's Liberation Orchestra, le registrazioni con Paul Motian's Electric Bebop Band o il Paradox Trio con Matt Darriau, Rufus Cappadocia e ...

David Bowie Jazzed: Ten Essential Bowie Covers

Read "David Bowie Jazzed: Ten Essential Bowie Covers" reviewed by Ian Patterson

Skúli Sverrisson With Bill Frisell: Strata

Mikael Mani: Bobby

Read "Bobby" reviewed by Franz A. Matzner
