Larry Coryell: Aurora Coryellis
by Glenn Astarita
In the 1970s musicians were spinning new threads on the jazz language and guitarist Larry Coryell prominently figured into these schematics while also designated as one of the grandfathers of jazz fusion, namely due to his electrified work with vibraphonist Gary Burton on Duster (RCA, 1967).

Rich Halley 4: Eleven
by Dan McClenaghan
Saxophonist Rich Halley exploded out of a five year recording hiatus in 2010 with Live at Penofin Jazz Festival, a growling, high energy, in-front-of-the-crowd mad man rant that featured trumpeter Bobby Bradford in the front line of a wild and often raucous chordless quartet. Five years off or not, there was a history there--a bunch of ...

Steve Davis: Say When
by Maurizio Zerbo
Il nume tutelare di questo CD è J.J. Johnson, di cui vengono interpretate sei note composizioni e relativi arrangiamenti. Davis si muove con tanto rispetto nei territori ampiamente esplorati dell'hard bop. Il modello di riferimento viene così riproposto con versatilità sia nei moduli espressivi che nelle sequenze degli assolo. Si impone una front-line ...

Wadada Leo Smith & John Lindberg: Celestial Weather
by Dan McClenaghan
Trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith, one of the original AACM artists and a major avant-garde artist in his own right, is perhaps best known of late for his highly ambitious, monumental orchestral works--Ten Freedom Summers (Cuneiform Records, 2013) and Occupy the World (TUM Records, 2013). In 2014 he turned this approach down a bit--using using an all-star ...
