Robert Bush Best of 2014

Read "Robert Bush Best of 2014" reviewed by Robert Bush


2014 proved a banner year for jazz recordings. Still, two of my favorite discs this year came in the form of previously unreleased material--the Jarrett Trio and Coltrane Quintet cannot be overlooked, in my opinion. Wadada Leo Smith The Great Lakes Suites (Tum Records) Keith Jarrett, ...

Now's the time III: The best in contemporary jazz from France and [tax haven] Luxembourg

Read "Now's the time III: The best in contemporary jazz from France and [tax haven] Luxembourg" reviewed by John Ephland


Every. One. Of. These. Tracks. Is. A. Keeper. To be swept up in a fervor when listening to music (always an unexpected pleasure) and finding it next to impossible not to write about the experience--during as well as after--is the dream all music journalists crave and celebrate every time they find themselves returning to that zone. ...

Tony Malaby Tamarindo: Somos Agua

Read "Somos Agua" reviewed by Robert Bush


Saxophonist Tony Malaby's Tamarindo, featuring the unerring bassist William Parker and explosive drummer Nasheet Waits explore the possibilities of the saxophone trio on Somos Agua with frequently staggering results--sort of like a very free version of the Sonny Rollins unit with Wilbur Ware and Elvin Jones that recorded A Night at the Village Vanguard some 57 ...

Jason Ajemian: A Way a Land of Life

Read "A Way a Land of Life" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


La registrazione, risalente al dicembre del 2006 e opportunamente ripescata e pubblicata dalla sempre più interessante NoBusiness Records, riunisce attorno al bassista Jason Ajemian un terzetto di fuoriclasse della scena improvvisativa statunitense e ci permette di apprezzarne appieno la dirompente vitalità, la contagiosa energia, l'intensità emotiva, la naturalezza nell'agire dentro e fuori i canoni.

Jason Ajemian: A Way A Land Of Life

Read "A Way A Land Of Life" reviewed by John Sharpe


While the talented cast dazzles, what comes across most strongly on this 42-minute LP is the controlling mind of bassist Jason Ajemian. Part of the fertile underground scene in Chicago, Ajemian has featured with Ken Vandermark and Matt Bauder, as well as cornetist Rob Mazurek's Exploding Star Orchestra. But none of that really prepares one for ...
