Uri Caine/Bedrock: Shelf-Life

Read "Shelf-Life" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman
October 7, 2005

Some artists thread a consistent musical philosophy through everything they do, regardless of context, making it all part of a greater conceptual whole. Others are more chameleon-like, adapting seamlessly to the demands of the moment. Their very flexibility and malleability gives their music its central purpose. Still, in order to stand out, even the most versatile ...

Uri Caine/Bedrock: Shelf-Life

by AAJ Staff
September 21, 2005

If Uri Caine's first Bedrock album was a warning shot across the bow, Shelf-Life is an outright broadside. The keyboard player's 2001 trio record with drummer Zach Danziger and bassist Tim Lefebvre blended electric jazz with contemporary and neo-retro styles, heading adventurously into a no man's land of beats, jams, and freaky madness.

Uri Caine Trio: Live At The Village Vanguard

by AAJ Staff
June 6, 2004

Pianist Uri Caine has a tendency toward a thematic approach, but it's refreshing to hear him simply return to roots. With this live acoustic trio date alongside bassist Drew Gress and drummer Ben Perowsky he does what he does best: just play, and see where it goes.

In a world filled with piano trios that are entrenched in furthering the impressionism of Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett, Uri Caine stands out as a pianist/composer whose reach is far broader.
