Matt Wilson's Arts And Crafts: The Scenic Route
by AAJ Italy Staff
Jazz piacevole e godibile, ma discontinuo negli esiti e con qualche caduta di gusto. Si potrebbe sintetizzare così la più recente produzione discografica del pur eccellente batterista Matt Wilson: solista notevole ma arrangiatore non molto fantasioso. Alti ma anche bassi in questo percorso, a tratti ben congegnato dal leader con piglio sicuro e la disinvoltura da ...

by Sean Patrick Fitzell
Whenever he plays, drummer Matt Wilson exudes an infectious enthusiasm that affects audience and musicians alike. It is one of the qualities--along with his sheer musicality and the technical facility to play inside and outside--that has attracted a range of bandleaders to Wilson.

John Butcher/Phil Durrant/John Russell: The Scenic Route
by Robert Spencer
Three improvisers with long resumes and magnificent virtuosity. Themeless improvised music that highlights the abilities of each musician to interact with his fellows and create a seamless whole of spontaneous composition.

John Butcher-Phil Durrant-John Russell: The Scenic Route
by Glenn Astarita
Jon Butcher (saxophones), Phil Durrant (violin) and John Russell (guitar) are a free-jazz or improvisational power trio of sorts. The Scenic Route is the latest from this daring and adventurous group as tracks 1-4 were recorded live in France and track 5 recorded live in London. The opener, “Heavy Merge” commences as if three scientists were ...
