Tony Oxley: Unreleased 1974 - 2016
by Chris May
The British drummer and bandleader Tony Oxley passed in 2023, aged 85, after a career which began in the mid 1960s as the drummer in the house band at Ronnie Scott's club. From this prestigious but relatively codified platform, Oxley soon steered into less travelled waters. In 1969 he was in the quartet which recorded John ...
Roots to Branches: Broadway, Jazz, and David Bowie?
by Kurt Ellenberger
In 10th grade, I had a classmate in my French class named Morvan, whom I didn't know at all (in fact, I doubt I ever ever talked to her). She was quiet and introverted but also somewhat defiant and aloof. She always dressed in what was quite outlandish fashion at the time. She was somewhere in ...
Get the Blessing, Staples Jr. Singers, Emil de Waal, Tomasz Stańko & More
by Ludovico Granvassu
The return of the Staples Jr. Singers, almost half a century after their debut, followed by the first album of Summer Camargo; the duet of drummer Emil de Waal with saxophonist Cecilie Strange followed Get the Blessing featuring Portishead's bassist and drummer; and then an unearthed gem recorded 20 years ago by Tomasz Stańko followed Sebastien ...
Tomasz Stańko Quartet: September Night
by Alberto Bazzurro
Una musica sospesa, carica di pathos, magari sempre un po' uguale a se stessa (all'interno di questo album, che viene da lontano, essendo stato inciso addirittura nel 2004, ma più in generale nell'ultima produzione di Tomasz Stanko), ma in possesso di un potere seduttivo immutato, e peraltro con periodiche impennate (per esempio in “Euforila," ma anche ...
Stańko, Waits, Rudolph, Sorey & More
by Bob Osborne
Previously unreleased live music from Tomasz Stańko kicks off a show comprised of all new releases. The expansive world of Nasheet Waits and the percussive adventures of Adam Rudolph & Tyshawn Sorey are also included. I'm also pleased to feature the first release from brand new label Park West Records and amongst other things a fascinating ...
Tomasz Stanko Quartet: September Night
by Chris May
How sorely Tomasz Stańko is missed. When he passed in 2018, his career had spanned practically the entire lifetime of homegrown Polish jazz, kicking off approximately with the Dave Brubeck Quartet's seminal tour of Poland in 1958, three years after the ban on jazz had been lifted by the country's ruling Communist Party. For Stańko, aged ...
Tomasz Stańko: September Night
by Mike Jurkovic
Once one finds oneself sucked into the fervent undertow piloting the live, previously unreleased September Night it is too late: The boat has left shore. Beginning with bassist Slawomir Kurkiewicz's full throated rumble, “Hermento's Mood" spins off into fable somewhere around the one minute forty mark, when pianist Marcin Wasilewski begins his warm, welcoming ...
Francois Carrier Ensemble featuring Mat Maneri /Tomasz Stańko / Gary Peacock / Michel Lambert: Openness
by Mark Corroto
Openness waited nearly two decades on a shelf (ok, probably on a hard drive) before being released for our listening pleasure. Recorded on May 5 & 6, 2006 at the Théâtre La Chapelle in Montréal, Canada, these three precious discs document a meeting between Canadian saxophonist François Carrier and Polish trumpeter Tomasz Stańko. It is the ...

Remembering Tony Oxley: Combination
by Ian Patterson
The sad news of the passing of free-spirited English drummer/percussionist Tony Oxley on December 26, 2023, is tempered by the knowledge that his was a life well lived, and his musical legacy a lasting one. As a member of Ronnie Scott's house band in the latter half of the 1960s, Yorkshireman Oxley played with some of ...
