Juli Wood Quartet: Synkka Metsa (Dark Forest)
by Dan McClenaghan
When the subject of Finnish jazz is mentioned, the names Iro Haarla (piano), Vernie Pohjola (trumpet), Juhani Aaltonenen (saxophone) and Heikki Sarmanto could get tossed about as four from Finland who are producing superb recordings on TUM Records. The “Finnish sound" tends toward a reflective and often melancholy minor key mode, with smoldering freedom that at ...

by Chris Mosey
Georgia White sang, “the blues ain't nothin' but a good woman feelin' bad." Duke Ellington came up with the music's most poetic definition. The blues, said Ellington, was “a dark cloud marking time." For a long time, musically, the blues wasn't nothin' but a simple 12-bar progression, one played and sung by blacks. ...
Tom Cox: The Journey Home
by C. Michael Bailey
Little Rock pianist Tom Cox and bassist Bill Huntington follow their plaintive, 2014 release Red (Self Produced) with the present The Journey Home. Like Red it is an exploration of spare melody with harmony on piano, propelled by Huntington's certain time. It is a crepuscular recital of mood pieces, warmly conceived as if at the end ...
