David Kikoski: Lighter Way

Read "Lighter Way" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

There was a time when most artists pursued linear careers. While the Miles Davis of Kind of Blue (Columbia, 1959) was very different than that of Bitches Brew (Columbia, 1969), a straight line could be drawn through his career, with each successive album usually representing an incremental step. These days artists often run multiple and vastly ...

Laszlo Gardony: Natural Instinct

Read "Natural Instinct" reviewed by Tom Greenland

by Tom Greenland

Who said “those who can't play teach ? It's not necessarily true, as some of the best jazz musicians can be found hiding out in institutions of higher learning. Laszlo Gardony is a case in point: Hungarian-born and Boston-bred (he attended Berklee School of Music), the classically trained pianist/composer has been nurturing the creative talents of ...

Dave Holland Quintet: Critical Mass

Read "Critical Mass" reviewed by Joel Roberts

by Joel Roberts

Bassist extraordinaire Dave Holland believes that like fine wine, music shouldn't be unbottled before its time. Holland and his highly regarded quintet spent a year and a half honing and retooling the music on their new album until it reached the point he calls “critical mass, where “it has become what it's going to be.

Martirio & Chano Dominguez: Acoplados

Read "Martirio & Chano Dominguez: Acoplados" reviewed by Ken Kase

by Ken Kase

Martirio & Chano Dominguez Acoplados Sunnyside Records 2006 Self-professed “fusions" of various musical forms in jazz are routinely and often justifiably treated with suspicion by critics and fans. The formulas employed for these events can be either fruitful and satisfying, or a recipe for utter pretentious disaster. Fortunately, Acoplados falls ...

The Mingus Big Band: Live in Tokyo

Read "Live in Tokyo" reviewed by Robert R. Calder

by Robert R. Calder

"Wham, Bam," indeed! Compared to the best performances by the late Charles Mingus, this effort has the air of more orthodox big bands like the ones led by Clarke/Boland and Jones/Lewis, which is also to say the best. McCoy Tyner's band on a good night has included some of the same performers featured on this live ...

Charles Mingus: At UCLA

Read "Charles Mingus: At UCLA" reviewed by Samuel Chell

by Samuel Chell

Charles Mingus At UCLA Sunnyside Records 2006 The actual title of this CD is Charles Mingus: Music Written for Monterey, 1965. Not heard...played in its entirety at UCLA. Vols. 1 and 2. The apparent overkill of the title prepares us for more of the same in the accompanying booklet, which ...

Chris Potter: Underground

Read "Underground" reviewed by Martin Gladu

by Martin Gladu

Evidently, rhythm is at the core center of this contemporary and urban-sounding album. Throughout these hard-driving selections, Chris Potter and his 55 Bar cohorts deliver rock-solid performances, both individually and collectively. In fact, one cannot not mention Potter's producing and A&R work--it firmly positions this album as jazz/fusion album of the year (if one can overlook ...
