Carlos Vega: Bird's Ticket
by Dan McClenaghan
Saxophonist Carlos Vega's band crackles. The sound of “A Confluence in Chi-Town," the opener on his Bird's Ticket recording, has an on-the-edge urgency in its distinctive approach to the standard jazz quintet format--bass/drums/keyboard rhythm section and a trumpet and a saxophone--a line up like Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie used. Vega, a veteran of ...

Dr. Lonnie Smith: Evolution
by Dan Bilawsky
Artist repatriation seems to be something of a theme in the Don Was era of Blue Note Records. In 2013 there was the return of saxophonist Wayne Shorter, a jazz giant who delivered many of his landmark '60s albums on this storied imprint. Then, in 2015, Charles Lloyd left ECM for Blue Note, a label that ...
Jason Miles/Ingrid Jensen: Kind of New
by Jeff Winbush

William Tatge + Last Call: Borderlands
by Stefano Merighi
Il pianista italo-americano William Tatge concepisce il jazz odierno come un laboratorio aperto, dai tratti cameristici che d'improvviso si impennano in vampate melodico-ritmiche di bella tensione, avventurosa, ma sempre controllata. Ascoltando questo Borderlands si coglie una cifra autoriale precisa ma nello stesso tempo una disponibilità a mettersi in gioco valorizzando al massimo il ...
