Greg Skaff: Ellington Boulevard

Read "Ellington Boulevard" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Recording studios can be cold and uninviting places. Without the ambience of a live room and an eager audience, some artists are challenged to capture the fire and the energy that results from the feedback of a receptive group of listeners. As wonderful as many studio recordings are, they don't always succeed in portraying what the ...

Judi Silvano: Let Yourself Go

Read "Judi Silvano: Let Yourself Go" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

by Dan McClenaghan

Judi Silvano Let Yourself Go Zoho Music 2004 Vocalist Judi Silvano's Let Yourself Go makes me long for the day when jazz was America's popular music. If that were the case today, this disc would sell a million copies and score three or four top ten radio hits. ...

Judi Silvano: Let Yourself Go

Read "Let Yourself Go" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza

by Jerry D'Souza

Guess it was about time. This is Judi Silvano's first album of standards, and if it need be said, these are the songs her mother loves. Well, mother Miriam has good taste and daughter Judi has the voice to give them a rich, red-blooded vein. Silvano is also blessed in having a top notch band and ...

Judi Silvano: Let Yourself Go

Read "Let Yourself Go" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone

by Michael P. Gladstone

Singer Judi Silvano (aka Mrs. Joe Lovano) has a real winner in this release. Having only heard her on several albums with Joe Lovano in which she was singing vocalese, or on her own Songs I Wrote or Wished I Did in '00, I was totally unprepared for my first listening of this new venture. The ...

Vic Juris: Blue Horizon

Read "Blue Horizon" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Sometimes you put on a disc and from the first note you know it's the real thing; honest, direct and completely unassuming, it resonates instantly. Such is the case with guitarist Vic Juris' new release, Blue Horizon. While there are certain precedents for what he does, he has a sound and approach all his own—and while ...

Trio Mundo: Rides Again

Read "Rides Again" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Trio Mundo reconvenes following its '02 release, Carnaval , and this time reedman Steve Slagle, a guest on that recording and collaborator with guitarist Dave Stryker in the Stryker/Slagle Band, is more of a full-fledged member, performing on almost all tracks and contributing one composition to the programme of original compositions by Stryker, bassist Andy McKee ...

Vic Juris: Blue Horizon

Read "Blue Horizon" reviewed by Jim Santella

by Jim Santella

With a program of his own compositions, guitarist Vic Juris maintains a smooth concept for this dreamy project. A cool and calm sense of serenity pervades, highlighted by the blend of vibraphone and guitar timbres. Spanish classical guitar has left a significant impression as the composer paints pictures of various pastoral themes. “889," the ...

Carlos Barbosa-Lima: Frenesi

Read "Frenesi" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

When classical performers tackle material from the jazz world, the result can often be something less than one would hope for. The more stringent and what some might call restricted range of interpretation leave little room for overt improvisation. Instead it's all about subtlety, dynamics and delicate phrasing. Consequently, all too often, when a classical player ...

Joan Stiles: Love Call

Read "Love Call" reviewed by Elliott Simon

by Elliott Simon

Joan Stiles' solo piano artfully interprets a clever arrangement of “Take the A Train" and perfectly portrays the full range of emotions inherent in Billy Strayhorn's final composition “Blood Count." This is after leading an octet in which tenor giant Frank Wess and baritone man Joe Temperley cut loose on Clifford Brown's “Daahoud." In addition, the ...

Pablo Aslan: Avantango

Read "Avantango" reviewed by Mark Sabbatini

by Mark Sabbatini

I cannot pretend I know anything about bassist Pablo Aslan or the supposedly “vibrant New York tango jazz scene"--I bought this CD because it was in the 99-cent bin of a Seattle record store and the concept sounded intriguing. It's safe to say I scored a real bargain. Aslan, a native of ...
