Tobias Delius / Olie Brice / Mark Sanders: Somersaults
by John Sharpe
Any lineup which contains reedman Tobias Delius deserves attention.

On Somersaults, he teams up with the talented British rhythm ...

The Greg Foat Group: The Greg Foat Group Live at The Playboy Club, London
by Roger Farbey
Compare and contrast the cascade of notes from Greg Foat's electric piano with albums featuring keyboardists such as Dave MacRae or Keith Tippett. This set's opener, Erni Clark's obscure minor classic “By The Grace Of God, I Am" recalls a feeling, intentionally similar, to the heady days of the late 1960s and early 1970s which Foat ...
Spontaneous Music Ensemble: Oliv & Familie
by Vic Albani
Quando ci si trova davanti alla recensione di un disco come questo o si decide per un agile volumetto di una trentina di pagine oppure sarebbe meglio lasciare correre.

Martin Archer's Engine Room Favourites: Bad Tidings From Slackwater Drag
by Glenn Astarita
British multi-reedman Martin Archer is a cunning maverick who exploits the seemingly limitless expanse of progressive jazz, electronica and improvisation, evidenced by his hearty discography, performing as a solo artist or when collaborating with many of his peers.

Wild Card: Organic Riot
by Bruce Lindsay
Music can signal rebellion, initiate change, influence the thoughts of an entire generation. Or it can cause thousands of disparate individuals to get up and dance and generally have a good time. Organic Riot, the third album from London-based funksters Wild Card, may not signal incipient revolution but it's certainly got the good-time, get up and ...

The Sirkis/Bialas International Quartet: Come To Me
by Mark Sullivan
The Sirkis/Bialas International Quartet demonstrates how well a vocalist can work as the featured soloist in a quartet. Even better, they make you forget the instrumentation in the beauty and joy of the music they make. The group truly deserves the “International" part of their name. Drummer Asaf Sirkis is an Israeli living in England; vocalist ...
