Tethered Moon/Kikuchi, Peacock, Motian: Play Kurt Weill
by Chris May
An album with a sake barrel of promise going for it but which doesn't ultimately hit the spot. It doesn't, for starters, serve up the kind of music which you might reasonably expect from its title. As with Tethered Moon's other themed albums--pegged on the music of Piaf, Hendrix, and Puccini--the source material on ...
Django Bates: Winter Truce (And Homes Blaze)
by Chris May
Ten years on from its original release, digitally remastered in a handsome Winter & Winter edition, Winter Truce (And Homes Blaze) isn't so much a candidate for re-evaluation as potent testimony to the controversy that surrounded maverick British bandleader and composer Django Bates in '95. The unfettered idiosyncrasy of the album--overflowing with new ideas and previously ...
Paul Motian Trio: At the Village Vanguard
by Eric J. Iannelli
Never one to regard form over content, I was nevertheless struck at once by the sheer beauty of the packaging of this reissue: a heavy, ribbed cardboard shell with an arced slot for the disc on one side, a thinner slip for the original liner notes on the other. It gives it the feeling of an ...
Tim Berne's Bloodcount: Memory Select - The Paris Concert III
by John Kelman
Tim Berne's September, 1994 Paris performances with Bloodcount clearly represent a career high point. Not one, not two, but three recordings from these shows were originally released in 1995 on the JMT label, and they have finally been reissued in remastered form on Winter & Winter this year. Memory Select - The Paris Concert III also ...
Paul Motian Trio: At the Village Vanguard
by John Kelman
Paul Motian has created a unique place for himself in the annals of jazz drumming by being one of its most implicit players. More colourist than timekeeper, he's developed a style where very little often suggests so much. He's brought his “less is more aesthetic to projects by artists like Bill Evans, Paul Bley, and Marilyn ...
Uri Caine/Bedrock: Shelf-Life
by John Kelman
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
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. This followup (a ...
Fred Frith: Eleventh Hour
by John Kelman
When he first emerged on the British scene in the seminal Canterbury group Henry Cow over thirty years ago, few could have envisaged that guitarist/multi-instrumentalist/composer Fred Frith would go on to a career marked by fearless pursuit, continuous parallel growth, and stylistic diversity. But if you go back to those early albums--in particular Unrest and In ...
Paul Motian: On Broadway Vol. 3
by John Kelman
Winter & Winter continues with its JMT Edition series, reissuing in nicely repackaged and remastered form the roughly eighty recordings that Stefan Winter produced during the early to mid-'90s for the defunct JMT label. The appearance of drummer Paul Motian's On Broadway Vol. 3 completes the reissue of Motian's three standards albums. The 24-bit remastering brings ...
