Miles Davis' Rubberband, Kuba Wiecek Trio & KaMaSz

by Maurice Hogue
October 9, 2019

Two rather contrasting recordings highlight this episode: Dan Weiss with his trio augmented by a second bassist and Rubberband, the once-shelved and now revived release from Miles Davis which was recorded after he had left Columbia. On Weiss' album, he displays the chops (often with heavy rock influences) that make him such a high-in-demand player, while ...

Read "Drone Dream" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

by Alberto Bazzurro
September 11, 2019

Di duetti tromba/batteria, dai tempi dei due volumi-capostipiti (peraltro largamente polistrumentali) intitolati Mu e firmati congiuntamente da Don Cherry e Ed Blackwell (era il 1969, giusto mezzo secolo fa), ce ne sono stati svariati, pur entro una formula--un abbinamento--sempre piuttosto esclusiva, alla fin fine alquanto rara.

They would win games like they sound here with tight efficient playing. They lay down perfect bunts and easily turn the double play ...
