Todd Clouser - Todd Clouser's a Love Electric (2010)
By Pico Fusion guitarist and Berklee grad Todd Clouser splits his residency between the frigid climes of Minneapolis, MN and the balmy, seaside vistas of Los Cabos, Mexico at the tip of the Baja California peninsula. Like scenery, Clouser enjoys contrasts in his music, too. After fronting a number of rock bands, tackles jazz on his ...
Pete Levin - Jump! (2010)
By Pico A couple of years back keyboardist and composer Pete Levin put forth Certified Organic, the second in a string of Hammond B-3 jazz records he's recently taken an interest in making. It was a thoroughly enjoyable set, one that sizzled and simmered in all the right places, and we had a great time expounding ...
The Friday Morning Listen: The Rolling Stones - Some Girls (1978)
By Mark Saleski It's the last great Rolling Stones album!! Sticky Fingers! Tattoo You! Exile On Main St.! Beggar's Banquet! Goat's Head Soup! Get Yer Ya-Yas's Out! Uh, that one that Brian Jones was sort of on but not too much! Sure, it's a silly argument. It's also fun. Sometimes the arguments make sense. I mean, ...
Ryuichi Sakamoto - Playing the Piano/out of Noise (2010)
By Mark Saleski The complete list of collaborators attached to pianist/composer/modern day Renaissance man Ryuichi Sakamoto could easily fill the space reserved for a full-length review. The short list includes Brian Wilson, Thomas Dolby, Iggy Pop, David Sylvain, Robbie Robertson, and Daniel Bernard Roumain. His film score resume, while somewhat more brief, is still equally impressive, ...
Daniel Bernard Roumain - Etudes 4 Violin and Electronix (2007)
By Mark Saleski Not long after receiving Etudes 4 Violin & Electronix, I got up one morning before the alarm went off, and settled myself down to some coffee. The idea was to catch up on the reading material that had stacked up over the past few months. What ended up happening over the next 10 ...
Ronnie Earl - Spread the Love (2010)
By Mark Saleski It was many years ago, in the early 1990's, that I had my first encounter with Ronnie Earl. He was playing at Raoul's Roadside Attraction in Portland, Maine. I had never heard of him before but a friend of mine was sure that a good time would follow. The start of the show ...
Quickies: New Release Roundup 2010, Vol. 10
By Pico The holiday season is still more than three weeks away but for record companies, the time is now. With early Christmas shopping soon upon us, the labels want to push records out the door and get the buzz generated in time to sway decisions for the gift givers. The where we come in, peeling ...
Atomic Skunk - Portal (2010)
By Mark Saleski “Subtlety" is not a word to be used lightly in a music review, mostly because it's likely to scare off the listener before even a single particle of the music has entered their ear parts. The sad fact is that “subtle" and “entertaining" are often thought of as mutually exclusive things. People don't ...
Otis Rush, "Live in Europe" (1993)
By Nick Deriso Otis Rush is the star-crossed guitar god, always in the right place at the wrong time. Close but no rock star. That despite his role as a principal architect of the modern Chicago blues-guitar vernacular, and a memorably emotional style of singing that echoes some of the genre's most recognizable figures. He's in ...
Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds (2010)
By Mark Saleski ..."The disgusting stink of a too-loud electric guitar: now that's my idea of a good time." Ah yeah, tell it Mr. Zappa! One of my all-time favorite quotes concerning the instrument, Frank wasn't proclaiming the guitar the king of instruments so much as noting that it's the perfect tool for making a truly ...
