Samo Salamon Trio: Live!

Read "Live!" reviewed by Nic Jones


As an instrumentalist guitarist, Salamon's work could almost be defined by what it's not.

As it is, this trio has little ...

Read "Mike Mainieri: Man Behind Bars" reviewed by John Kelman


It's hard to imagine vibraphonist Mike Mainieri in his seventies. Not only does he look and sound like a man 10 years (or more) his junior, but a quick look at the projects he's been involved in over the past few years sound like anything but a septuagenarian resting on his not inconsiderable laurels.

The Story of Jazz Guitar

Read "The Story of Jazz Guitar" reviewed by AAJ Staff


While in its early days, jazz guitar was considered a rhythm instrument alongside the banjo of Dixieland. In 1940, Charlie Christian and his Gibson ES-150 changed that and elevated guitar to lead instrument status alongside the saxophone and trumpet--instruments that could acoustically cut through the sound of a piano-bass-drums rhythm section.

Tal Farlow: Tal Farlow Guitar Genius: The LA Sessions

Read "Tal Farlow Guitar Genius: The LA Sessions" reviewed by Nic Jones


The word “genius" is used far too much, but Guitar Genius is an apposite term for a performance by Tal Farlow, and its use is fully justified with regards to this two-disc set. Farlow was apparently blessed with unusually large hands, which on a practical level enabled him literally to reach places that were beyond a ...
