Ocote Soul Sounds: The Ocote Way
by James Taylor
Ocote Soul Sound is the brainchild of two incredibly accomplished musicians, who continue to operate just under the radar;one more project to occupy the diminishingly available time of guitarist Adrian Quesada and flautist Martin Perna.

John Medeski: Strong as Ever with MMW

The Medeski, Martin & Wood band, one that has amassed followers like a snowball rolling down a mountain of wet snow since its emergence on the scene over 18 years ago, is one of those exceptional organizations that doesn't stick to playing what might be expected by its audiences.

Mike Reed's People, Places & Things: About Us

For composer/bandleader Mike Reed, his knowledge of jazz history allows him the freedom to cherish and exalt the past. Reed's prior disc, Proliferation (482 Music, 2008), revitalized Chicago jazz music from 1954-1960, covering tracks by under-appreciated artist Wilbur Campbell, ...
It's The Drummer, Stupid
by Mark Corroto
If you're a jazz misanthrope you probably think first to “shoot the pianist," a saying taken from the Francois Truffaut film of the same name, Tirez sur le pianiste. Truth be told, the most effective way to pull the plug on a jazz band, a very good jazz band, is to take out the drummer. An ...
