Steve Lacy's Japan Tours: 1975-2004

Read "Steve Lacy's Japan Tours: 1975-2004" reviewed by Gilles Laheurte


As stated in my first article about Steve Lacy and Japan, there is a great deal of mystery about his deep inner connection with Japan, and I reiterate that it should remain that way. Yet, his recorded output during his 12 completed tours is so important--in terms of the music, not in terms of the number ...

Over a year ago we lost a pioneering musician who singlehandedly created a language for the soprano saxophone. Two overdue reissues from this year (both recorded in 1972) and a belated NYC tribute this month help us to commemorate his genius. Steve Lacy The Gap Verve/Free America 2005 ...

(Notes for the Steve Lacy-Sound Legacy concert at Merkin Hall, New York City October 06, 2005)“The history of the soprano saxophone begins and ends with Steve Lacy. We owe it to him, him alone, with no help, struggling, white as snow, pure as crystal." ~ Marc-Edouard Nabe, ZigzagsThis bold statement from the ...

Steve Lacy: The Way

Read "The Way" reviewed by AAJ Staff


By Francis Lo Kee The great Steve Lacy, recently departed, made many records, but this one captures a great ensemble at the peak of its creative powers. It's a two-CD set from one concert in Basel in 1979, and it's hard to believe that so much great music was played in one sitting. ...

Lacy invited some old-time friends to these events, such as a fellow Parisian, master improviser, and double-bassist, Joëllle Léandre, ...

Steve Lacy and Japan

Read "Steve Lacy and Japan" reviewed by Gilles Laheurte


Pretty much like “Rosebud," Orson Welles' famous mysterious enigma in Citizen Kane, there was “something" about Japan in Steve Lacy's life, something that no one will ever fully understand. Call it karmic ties, call it subconscious bond, call it deep inner connection, there was “something" there, definitely. Ever since his first tour in 1975 (invited by ...
