The Diamond Five: Brilliant!

by Hrayr Attarian
Why some artists achieve the recognition they deserve while other equally talented ones don't depends on many things. But one thing is clear, that obscurity does not always mean lack of talent.

Rachid Taha: Diwan 2

by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Rachid TahaDiwan 2Universal Music France2006 It is tempting to view Diwan 2 as a roots" album: there is a preponderance of covers of older material, and the instrumentation leans substantially less on distorted electric guitar than did Rachid Taha's last album, the phenomenal Tékitoi (Wrasse, 2004).

Bill Coleman: The Complete Philips Recordings

by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Trumpeter Bill Coleman (1904-81) played in a host of orchestras (led by Benny Carter, Teddy Wilson, Luis Russell and Don Redman) in the 1930s, with the same vibrato and finesse as his contemporary, Buck Clayton, but not quite the same bravura and vocabulary. To make an analogy using trumpeters from another jazz era, Coleman is to ...
