The Who: Live At The Oval 1971

Read "Live At The Oval 1971" reviewed by Doug Collette


The Who were at the peak of their performing powers by the time they embarked upon an extensive touring schedule in 1971.

And, having distilled guitarist/composer ...

Read "Belonging" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic


For his Blue Note debut, saxophonist Branford Marsalis and his long-standing quartet--pianist Joey Calderazzo, bassist Eric Revis and drummer Justin Faulkner--hit the sweet spot again and again and again, reinterpreting and re-imagining Keith Jarrett's epochal 1974 ECM classic, Belonging.

Artemis: Arboresque

Read "Arboresque" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic


The virtuoso musicians of Artemis--pianist Renee Rosnes trumpeter Ingrid Jensen saxophonist Nicole Glover bassist Noriko Ueda, and drummer Allison Miller --get down to business quick on their third for Blue Note Arboresque.

McCoy Tyner / Joe Henderson: Forces Of Nature: Live At Slugs'

Read "Forces Of Nature: Live At Slugs'" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic


When recordings like Forces of Nature: Live at Slugs' seemingly falls from yonder jazz sky, we must stop to thank those swinging stars above for our grand fortune.

That becomes especially apparent when random, ...

Wayne Shorter: Celebration Volume 1

Read "Celebration Volume 1" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic


Wayne Shorter never rested on his or anyone's laurels. So when at the start of this perilous century he convened his great, late-stage quartet with pianist Danilo Perez, bassist John Patitucci, and drummer Brian Blade it wasn't to take the bandstand and placate audience and skeptics with greatest hits or refurbished takes on old standards. It was to create ...
