Jon Irabagon with Mike Pride: I Don't Hear Nothin' But The Blues

Read "I Don't Hear Nothin' But The Blues" reviewed by Mark Corroto

Same energy, same intensity, and volume, lots of volume. Funny, because this is an acoustic duo between saxophone and drums, while Massacre is a trio of drummer Charles Hayward, ...

It's not that anyone has to choose sides, but if the classic Paul Motian band (featuring Lovano) was The Beatles, then Malaby's Paloma Recio quartet is the Rolling Stones. Without having to choose sides, Paloma ...

Flow Trio: Rejuvenation

Read "Rejuvenation" reviewed by John Sharpe


Rejuvenation, despite its more recent vintage, fits right in with the generally held notion of the ESP label in its heyday as a home to passionate, small group, free jazz blowing sessions. While there may not be the same shock of the new, the intervening period means that the practitioners of this art have a rich ...
