Hank Mobley: Hank Mobley

Read "Hank Mobley" reviewed by Greg Simmons


During the 1950s and '60s Hank Mobley was an especially prolific musician. In addition to many dates as a sideman, his string of 26 or so records under his own name for Blue Note certainly makes him the one of, if not the label's productivity champion. Most of his dates are excellent performances, yet somehow his ...

Joshua Breakstone/The Cello Quartet: 88

Read "88" reviewed by Mark Sullivan


Veteran guitarist Joshua Breakstone pays tribute to some of his favorite pianist/composers here. He tells a story about a fellow Berklee student (a saxophonist) who asked legendary saxophonist Sonny Stitt if he could sit in. Stitt shut him down with the question “how many keys on a saxophone?" The novice couldn't answer--there are 23--but everyone knows ...

Filippo Vignato

Read "Filippo Vignato" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


01. How Town -I Dare You Sea (Kleine Opa -2016). Per me una rivelazione, è il terzo album di questo gruppo vocale (leader il contrabbassista belga Lennart Heyndels) formato da giovani improvvisatori ed improvvisatrici nord-europei di immenso talento gravitanti attorno alla vivace scena olandese. Disco visionario per scrittura, suono, ricerca sulle possibilità dello strumento vocale ...

Joe Morris: Shock Axis

Read "Shock Axis" reviewed by Mark Corroto


I am applying for a NEA grant to test my theory that you can judge an album by it's cover. For instance, The Rolling Stones' Exile on Main St (RSR, 1972) and The Clash's London Calling (CBS, 1979) are two albums where you just knew what to expect by gazing at the covers. In the jazz ...

Johnny Griffin: The Congregation – 1957

Read "Johnny Griffin: The Congregation – 1957" reviewed by Marc Davis


Well, this is a disappointment. Johnny Griffin is widely regarded as one of the fastest sax players in jazz history. His reputation began with his very first album, Blue Note's Introducing Johnny Griffin in 1956. He solidified his rep the next year with a frantic three-sax attack on A Blowin' Session with John Coltrane ...

Esponente di punta dell'area jazzistica pugliese e già partner di Gianluca Petrella, Roberto Ottaviano e Gaetano Partipilo, il pianista Mirko Signorile ha espresso in poco più di un decennio (dal sorprendente esordio per la Soul Note con In Full Life e i successivi riconoscimenti della critica) un ricco corpus di opere comprendente sei album a suo ...
