Moppa Elliott: Still, Up In The Air
by Mark Sullivan
In his usual role as bassist and leader of the jazz group Mostly Other People Do the Killing, Moppa Elliott focuses on composing and bandleading. So his first solo double-bass album represents a real departure. In many ways it resembles band mate Jon Irabagon's recent solo sopranino saxophone album Inaction is an Action: an often abstract ...
The Brothers Brown: The Brothers Brown: Dusty Road
by C. Michael Bailey
There is really only so much that can be done with the traditional 12-bar blues form. It was that limitation that helped give rise to rhythm & blues and soul music and cross-pollinated jazz and country & western. While fun to consider, it is a fool's endeavor to try and draw a straight line through these ...

The Andrew Allen Trio: Live! from the Cantina: A Star Wars Jazz Tribute
by Jim Olin
The universal appeal of the Star Wars soundtrack cannot be denied. It has become so iconic that any reimagining of its music is sure to be highly scrutinized. The Andrew Allen Trio took a big risk in putting a jazz spin to the Star Wars soundtrack but it has paid off significantly. Their new album Live! ...
Dave Ballou: Solo Trumpet
by Giuseppe Segala
Dave Ballou si inserisce in modo del tutto personale in quel filone di trombettisti che indaga il proprio strumento in senso lato, ne trae sonorità inedite attraverso lo studio di articolazioni e procedure peculiari, ne cerca un ampliamento del vocabolario e delle espressività. Un filone che, in senso cronologico, ha origine con Bill Dixon, passa per ...
Vijay Iyer & Wadada Leo Smith: A Cosmic Rhythm With Each Stroke
by Mark Corroto
The expansion of the mind, or better yet, consciousness, can come from multiple approaches. Prayer, physical activity, hallucinogenic substances, and mathematics are but a few routes. All seem to distillate to one essence, that is quiet, the emptiness of silence. For prayer or meditation, the quiet is obvious. But also, great scientists and athletes tell us ...

Previously unreleased, the engineers' remastering effort seems to have paid off, as the overall sound is acceptable; although, the lower-end bass response is a bit weak. This concert was originally recorded for a ...
