Timbasa (Jazzhead Records, 2010), Tales from the Earth (With Omar Sosa) (Ota Records, 2009) and Straight No Chaser (Jazzhead Records, 2008) were all favorably reviewed within these sacred electrons.

Lol Coxhill / Roger Turner: Success With Your Dog

Read "Success With Your Dog" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

Listening to soprano saxophonist, Lol Coxhill on Success With Your Dog, it is tempting to dwell on the thought that Coxhill pushes the straight horn further, much further, than the late Steve Lacy.

Steve Lacy: November

Read "November" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Quando se n'è andato, quel 4 giugno di sei anni fa, non lo si sarebbe detto: che il nome di Steve Lacy - perché é di lui ovviamente che stiamo parlando - sarebbe tornato al centro delle “cose" jazzistiche tutto sommato così di rado (al di là della memoria, indelebile, lasciata in chi l'ha conosciuto e ...
