Transatlantic - More Never is Enough DVD (2011)
Turns out, Transatlantic is a modern-day prog-rock supergroup in the most complete sense of the word: That means bass pedal solos. Make no mistake, there is plenty of serious music making to be found on the forthcoming 2 DVD/3CD package More Never Is Enough, which includes two live shows from the band's celebrated 2010 reunion tour. ...

Something Else! Interview: Jazz Legend Jimmy Cobb
Jimmy Cobb, the lone survivor of legendary jazz dates featuring Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Dinah Washington, Wes Montgomery and others, continues to furiously drum—even while carrying the torch. The 82-year-old's newest album is called Remembering Miles. Cobb will also begin a tour celebrating the music of Coltrane on Thursday, continuing through Nov. 5 with Javon Jackson, ...
Mikko Innanen and Innkvisitio - Clustrophy (2011)
I know of at least two things people from Finland excel in: cell phones and forward-thinking jazz. The mostly-Finnish Scorch Trio springs to mind when it comes to jazz with an edge, and for the last ten years or so, multi-saxophonist Mikko Innanen belongs squarely in that conversation, too. Innanen is a musician who is heavily ...
Fab Trio with Billy Bang - History of Jazz in Reverse (2011)
Billy Bang left us six months ago, but we're not quite done with new additions to his catalog. TUM Records, the Finland-based label who last year brought us the last Bang-led record released in his lifetime, will on October 25 free up a recording he did in late 2005 with the FAB Trio. The FAB Trio ...
Cinque, Featuring Joey Defrancesco and Steve Gadd - Catch a Corner (2011)
The trio of respected Canadian sidemen who complete the Cinque band, though nowhere near as famous as Joey DeFrancesco and Steve Gadd, end up providing the structure and verve for this celebration of good-time soul jazz. You'll come in listening for the familiar rhythms of Cinque's celebrated organist and drummer, but go away deeply impressed with ...
David Paul Mesler - Just A Lucky So And So (2011)
Many a jazz singer has stumbled through the Great American Songbook, slowed by imitative missteps or the inability to keep pace with a swinging quartet surrounding him. David Paul Mesler is not that singer. In fact, on the new Just a Lucky So and So, issued on Emerald City Records, includes a number of familiar standards ...
Ben Goldberg Quintet - The Door, the Hat, the Chair, the Fact (2006)
By Mark Saleski Too bad that the clarinet was the instrument guys were embarrassed to be stuck with in band. None of those kids ever got to hear what musicians like Steve Lacy (yes, I know, soprano sax. Close enough), Don Byron or Ben Goldberg could do with it. Goldberg, a member of the group Tin ...
Shows I'll Never Forget: Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Nov. 18, 2003
By Tom Johnson, at the Marquee Theater in Tempe, Arizona We finished dinner a little before six and headed over to the Marquee theater, which was really only a few minutes away. Since Bela Fleck & the Flecktones came on at 7 p.m.—a very early start time—we figured we'd just wait at the venue. Might as ...
Frank Kohl Quartet - Coast to Coast (2011)
Frank Kohl approaches the guitar with an exuberant curiosity, but also a well-crafted ability—skittering from influence to influence without ever stumbling. He sounds like he's having a ball, too. That's led to an album called Coast to Coast that boasts a savvy veteran player's satisfying structural logic, but also its share of humor and fun. Kohl ...
