Wadada Leo Smith: Tabligh

Read "Tabligh" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Parlare dei numerosi punti di contatto fra la musica di questo ottimo album del trombettista Wadada Leo Smith e i capolavori elettrici di Miles Davis dei primi anni settanta potrebbe sembrare riduttivo per l’arte sopraffina di Smith, ma non è affatto così. Questo gruppo denominato 'Golden Quartet' ha infatti la competenza tecnica e la personalità per ...

Wadada Leo Smith's Golden Quartet: Tabligh

Read "Tabligh" reviewed by Kurt Gottschalk


Wadada Leo Smith's first Golden Quartet record came as a happy surprise during a burst of activity.

Wadada Leo Smith's Golden Quartet: Tabligh

Read "Tabligh" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


For Tabligh, trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith has reassembled a Golden Quartet to blow, very Miles Davis-like, on a follow-up recording to Year of the Elephant (Pi Recordings, 2002).
