Ron Thomas: Duo

Read "Duo" reviewed by Victor L. Schermer


The poet John Keats famously wrote: “A thing of beauty is a joy forever." That's the kind of album this is. It's one stretch of beautiful playing from beginning to end.

Victory Jazz Quartet: Origin

Read "Origin" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Most of the jazz fusion groups of the 1970s threw more instruments into the mix than flugelhornist Al Moretti does on Origin.

Fusion evolved from trumpeter Miles Davis' In a Silent Way (Columbia Records, 1969), sparkling music ...
