George Brooks Summit: Spirit and Spice
by Raul d'Gama Rose
The road taken by saxophonist, George Brooks on Spirit and Spice may not be new, and is far from the glamorous one that guitarist John McLaughlin blazed through in the 1970s and '80s, with various incarnations of the Mahavishnu Orchestra. However, it remains a significant one if a musician playing in a Western idiom is willing ...

Dave Frank: Portrait Of New York
by Dan Bilawsky

Pianist Dave Frank, widely recognized ...

Hubert Nuss: The Book of Colours
by C. Michael Bailey
Ambitious projects like Hubert Nuss' The Book of Colours are not unheard of. Here, the German pianist endeavors to explore multiple modes based on a color wheel.
