Ted Daniel's Energy Module: Innerconnection

Read "Innerconnection" reviewed by John Sharpe

by John Sharpe

Although 72-year old trumpeter Ted Daniel remains active on the scene -courtesy of his Duology partnership with clarinetist Michael Marcus, and his own International Brass and Membrane Corps -a significant part of his recent output has focused on archival recordings. As such, the first time release of the 2 CD Innerconnection from fall 1975 neatly fits ...

The Allman Brothers Band: Live - Beacon Theatre New York City 10-28-14

Read "The Allman Brothers Band: Live - Beacon Theatre New York City 10-28-14" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

The most stirring moments of the Allman Brothers Band's concert recording from New York City's Beacon Theatre on October 28, 2014 occur near the end of its nearly four-hour performance--not surprisingly, within a rendition of the group's signature instrumental, “Mountain Jam"--that are as emphatic as they are mellifluous. The patient but rabid audience offers instant recognition ...

Tony Adamo: Tony Adamo & The New York Crew

Read "Tony Adamo & The New York Crew" reviewed by Nicholas F. Mondello

by Nicholas F. Mondello

Some wit once quipped that when you go to Heaven, you hear the voice of God--who is actually imitating the late, great “movie trailer guy," Don LaFontaine. If that's so, for those jazzers entering the Heavenly corner reserved for bereted hipsters and late-night flipsters, Big G must assuredly be trying to cop Tony Adamo.

Ferdinando Argenti Trio: Live At The Sahara

Read "Live At The Sahara" reviewed by Roger Farbey

by Roger Farbey

Italian born but now Massachusetts-based resident Argenti is a pianist with multifarious talents which are abundantly showcased in this live trio session recorded in 2013. The opener, “Bloomdido," immediately signals that this band is on fiery form, doing superb justice to Charlie Parker's famous standard. The mood quietens somewhat for the mid-paced “Poinciana" but not without ...

Boz Scaggs: A Fool to Care

Read "A Fool to Care" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Less is more had to rule the sessions for Boz Scaggs' A Fool to Care. The core quartet of accompanists includes the producer drummer Steve Jordan, who's worked with the likes of Neil Young and Keith Richards, and while, like Memphis (429 Records, 2013), this album was recorded in a musical bastion of America-Nashville Tennessee-the album's ...

The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Live Jazz, April 3-9

The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Live Jazz, April 3-9

Seems that the Star Tribune only intermittently recognizes music beyond Pop these days, but rest assured, jazz is alive and well, if mostly in small venues in the Twin Cities. Intimate spaces have considerable merit for this music! Take this weekend for example — Maud Hixson singing at Parma, Dean Magraw and Steven Hobert dueling at ...

Keyboardist Steve McQuarry Presents A Tribute To Carla Bley At SFJAZZ Center, June 5

Oakland-based keyboardist-composer Steve McQuarry and his musician friends had long been enamored of the cutting-edge music of Oakland-born keyboardist-composer Carla Bley. In a conversation a year and a half ago with Bley’s daughter, keyboardist Karen Mantler, he mentioned that he would love to perform some of her mother’s compositions. Mantler talked it over with Bley, and ...
