Tom Rizzo: Day and Night

The names in guitarist Tom Rizzo's starting lineup on Day and Night indicate that this is a West Coast-based group, an observation that is borne out in Rizzo's bio, which says he is “active [on] the Los Angeles music scene" and served as guitarist for the Tonight Show band when Jay Leno was at the helm, ...
Steve Khan: Backlog
by Mark Sullivan
Latin jazz has rarely featured the guitar, but that hasn't stopped Steve Khan. Backlog continues in the vein of previous albums including Parting Shot (Tone Center, 2011) and Subtext (Tone Center, 2014): creative Latin arrangements of Great American Songbook standards and modern jazz tunes that are rarely played in Latin style (or in any style, in ...
Greg Skaff: Soulmation
by Dan Bilawsky
Guitarist Greg Skaff is all about the grease, grit, and grooves on Soulmation. It's a logical extension of his previous work--guitar-fronted organ group dates like East Harlem Skyline (Zoho Music, 2009) and 116th & Park (Zoho Music, 2012)--but it's a tad heavier, raunchier, and funkier than anything Skaff threw us on those records. His approach here ...

Steve Khan: Backlog
by James Nadal
In what could best be described as an enduring exploration, Steve Khan has undertaken the role of expanding and redefining the role of the guitar in the hybrid genre of Latin Jazz. Backlog continues with the concept established as far back as 2005 on The Green Field (Tone Center), in the transformation of straight-ahead jazz compositions ...
Steve Khan: Backlog
by Mark F. Turner

Backlog is third in this series and represents some of the esteemed jazz guitarist's finest work to date.

In un album che scorre via veloce con rara piacevolezza il musicista francese, a quattro anni dal debutto di Brooklyn Bazaar, condensa in 46 minuti il meglio della sua estetica più recente fra ritmi ...
