Jeff "Tain" Watts: Megawatts
by John Kelman
Megawatts has had a somewhat chequered past. Originally recorded in 1991, contractual difficulties made it necessary to release the record without Jeff “Tain" Watts’ name on the marquee. Consequently, the album never received the attention it deserved, and this is a shame because aside from being Watts’ first album as a leader, it represents one of ...
Jason Lindner: Live/UK
by John Kelman
Following his 2000 little big band recording, Premonition (Concord), pianist Jason Lindner took a quartet to Europe, recording Live/UK at the prestigious Pizza Express club in London, England. That it has taken nearly three years for this recording to see the light of day is curious but, regardless, it was well worth the wait. Lindner, a ...
Joe Gilman Trio: Time Again: Brubeck Revisited (Volume One)
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
What a treat this is: jazz that is brilliantly executed, intriguing, and actually... fun.

Steve Lacy: The Holy La
by Jeff Stockton
From the first note of The Holy La, you know you’re in the hands of a master. The tone is authoritative, and lower than the high hard sound of the soprano sax we associate with the Coltrane of “My Favorite Things.” The tune is from Monk, “Shuffle Boil,” and the trio, together in one combination or ...
Moutin Reunion Quartet: Red Moon
by AAJ Staff
The first thing that grabs you when you pick up Red Moon is the design of the case, a clever cardboard entity with a cool circular hole that can give you every phase of the moon when you rotate the disc inside. Spend a few seconds playing with that, and then get into the music. This ...

For over 20 years, bassist Rufus Reid has deftly balanced the roles of educator and performer. In the process, he has become one of the top post bop session players in the world and been the “gatekeeper" for a notable flow of new talent, guiding such leading young bassists as Duncan Hopkins, Rick McLaughlin, Nicki Parrott ...
Moutin Reunion Quartet: Red Moon
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
Avant-garde music is not my cup of tea: I usually find it dark and formless, and the more “out" it goes, the faster I turn it off. But when I heard the opening track here, a bass and drum derangement of “La Mer," I was struck by how playful it could be. Same thing for the ...
Baden Powell: O Universo Musica de Baden Powell

2 disc set - from The Barclay Years 1964-1972 and The Festival Years 1970-1977 Baden Powell was a legendary Brazilian guitarist whom many consider the best of all time.
