Thelonious Monk Redux
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Perhaps there are no better contemporary homages to pianist and composer Thelonious Monk than the ones re-imagined by soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy and trombonist Roswell Rudd, as well as by pianist Misha Mengelberg. But the greatest of all is the short one by composer and pianist Heiner Stadler. That seminal album--Tribute to Bird and Monk (Tomato, ...
Steve Lacy: Avignon and After - 1
by John Eyles
Emanem and Steve Lacy have been entwined since the label was born with the release of the saxophonist's LP Solo (1974).

His septet, an experienced large/small ensemble, glides almost effortlessly through the opulence of this music.The ease in which these musicians maneuver through the nine Monk compositions, plus Duke Ellington's ...
Eddie Daniels / Roger Kellaway: Live at the Library of Congress
by Nic Jones
This is a wonderfully sympathetic duo. Pianist Roger Kellaway has an identity which brings together Ellis Larkins, Bill Evans and deep knowledge of jazz piano, whilst Eddie Daniels may be the most formidably correct clarinetist in jazz today, without ever letting technique get in the way of expression. Add to this duo's many ...
