David Sanborn, Alan Braufman & Tahmela Six
by Maurice Hogue
David Sanborn's passing really stirred up a lot of memories of top-down cruisin' on the road, stereo blasting, and a lot of good times. So much has been written about David, and I can only add how much I loved that sound--you knew it right off--and his ability to play in any context. Rock on' David ...
William Parker, Kimura/Guy/Hemingway & Frank London
by Maurice Hogue
There are some shiny new trio albums highlighting this edition of One Man's Jazz that are well worth checking out. Bassist William Parker, keyboardist & instrument inventor Cooper-Moore and drummer Hamid Drake have played together in all manner of situations but they've never recorded as a trio; the new Heart Trio rectifies that, although don't expect ...

by Maurice Hogue
The prolific saxophonist Ivo Perelman continues to release excellent recordings at a staggering pace. I think it's six so far in 2024.

Marshall Allen: A Century of Joyful Noise
by Ian Patterson
Marshall Allen turned 100 years old on May 25, 2024. Back in 1995, when Allen inherited the leadership of the Sun Ra Arkestra at the age of 71, you would have got pretty good odds that he would not be holding the chair nearly thirty years hence. But the cosmology of the Sun Ra Arkestra, and ...
Jason Robinson, Borderlands Trio & Farewell Taint Radio
by Maurice Hogue
This edition of One Man's Jazz is the final one for taintradio.org, as Taint Radio closed operations on April 30th. One of the longest-running internet jazz stations, Taint Radio had a great run: 15+ years of independently programmed music, streaming 24/7 and absolutely no commercials. Major props go to radio veteran Bob Rogers who was Taint ...

Matthew Shipp: New Concepts in Piano Trio Jazz
by Mark Corroto
Jazz fans are much like baseball geeks; they collect facts and statistics. The baseball fan will know a player's numbers such as on base percentage, at bats, home runs and stolen bases, whereas the jazz fan, maybe better said the jazz fanatic, will note recording dates and lineups, titles, releases and recording engineers. The baseball fan ...
