Cecil Taylor- PDX Jazz Fest 2008
2008-05-06 04:29:00
Cecil Percival Taylor is world renowned for being one of the progenitors of the free jazz movement that took the jazz world by storm in the mid 1950's. After working with Hot Lips Page and Johnny Hodges for a short duration, Cecil formed his own quartet in 1955 featuring Steve Lacy on soprano sax, Buell Neidlinger on bass and Dennis Charles on the drums. From 1961 to 1986, Cecil primarily performed and recorded with alto saxophonist Jimmy Lyons, drummer Sunny Murray and Andrew Cyrille. Over the past two decades his recordings have mainly been released on European record labels, with the rare exception of a few select recordings that can be found in the US. Cecil's approach to playing the piano is with a visceral percussive style that evokes the drumming of Milford Graves or Sunny Murray. I was first introduced to Cecil's music when I heard his fantastic debut album Jazz Advance featuring Steve Lacy on soprano saxophone. While it's been awhile since I've listened to this record,...

Former first lady, Nancy Reagan is endorsing John McCain for his bid for president. With all the weight Ms. Reagan pulls in the Republican party for her contributions to her husbands presidency, it should sway many skeptical conservatives into supporting McCain.After all - Ms. Reagan was responsible for the collapse of the Berlin Wall thus ending the Cold War as well as singlehandedly conquering America's drug problem. Just say no!Like Nancy Reagan, Senator Hillary Clinton took on some pretty hefty responsibilities while in office (or down the hall). She dodged sniper bullets in Bosnia, negotiated peace talks across the world, provided health care for millions of babies, painted the oval office, took part in covert CIA missions as both coordinator and field agent, balanced the budget, removed tough stains, led her husband's secret service team and helped Dorothy return safely to Kansas.I'll be the first one to admit that I might have embellished on a résumé at one time or anot...

Medeski Martin and Wood - End of the World Party (Just in Case) (2004)
2007-11-13 19:47:00
Medeski Martin & Wood, or MMW, is a jazz trio originally formed in 1991, consisting of John Medeski on keyboards, Billy Martin on drums and percussion, and Chris Wood on double bass and bass guitar.Medeski Martin & Wood was initially a straightforward acoustic jazz trio, but Medeski quickly added a Hammond organ when the difficulties of touring with a piano became apparent. This more soul jazz oriented direction led to the incorporation of other musical genres, including funk, hip hop, trip hop and free jazz. Medeski has also utilized a number of different keyboard instruments, such as a mellotron, a melodica, and a clavinet, among others.With each successive album, Medeski Martin & Wood have become harder to pin down. Having long ago transcended their soulful organ-groove basics to enter a more expansive world of snappy beats and backbeats, eerie atmospheric effects, post-lounge riffing, and the occasional jazz overture, they occupy their own category.They have also wor...

Kammerflimmer Kollektief - Absencen (2005)
2007-11-01 19:47:00
German experimental jazz-electronica group characterised by soothing, throbbing soundscapes (the band name translates as 'Ventricular Fibrillation Collective') accented with disjointed sounds played by instruments such as the saxophone. Although the fragile rhythms draw heavily from free-jazz improvisation the final overall effect is closer to ambient electronica.Listen to samples of this album on LastFM Download Password: tuchinsky.blogspot.com

Brotzmann/Hopkins/Ali- SonglinesLet me start off by saying that I am in no way responsible if your eardrums start bleeding from the sheer intensity and volume of this recording. It's not pure cacophony like Machine Gun or Nipples, but it is definitely not cocktail party jazz for the bachelor pad generation. Peter Brotzmann has played with so many free jazz greats that if I was to list them all here it would take up the entire post. "Songlines" was recorded in 1991 as part of the mythical "Total Music Meeting" with Fred Hopkins and Rashied Ali joining Brotzmann for an intensely spiritual meeting of the minds. This meeting was apparently meant to bring three saxophonists, three bassists and threee drummers from both sides of the Atlantic to play together in all sorts of interesting combinations. This record is the end result of one of these fantastically creative collaborations. "Songlines" features virtuoso performances by all three members, but you wouldn't expect anything less fr...

Sam Rivers-Part 1- Instrumental Solo of the Tenor Sax andPart 4- Group With Tenor SaxFrom: Vol 1- Essence- The Heat and Warmth of Free Jazz [Circle Records, 1976]Sometimes I go for quite some time without exposing my ears to the mind-expanding sounds of Free Jazz. This is an unfortunate thing, since I am inspired to create and write everytime I hear it. Now when one usually thinks of Free Jazz, they think Sun Ra, Coltrane-late 60's, and the man who coined the term Free Jazz- Ornette Coleman. In my opinion, one of the most underrated free jazz saxophonists is Sam Rivers. His ensemble, the Sam Rivers Rivbea Orchestra, recently released a record on Aurora releases called Aurora, but unfortunately I haven't heard this yet. I want you to listen to a couple tracks from a live recording from the Bim Huis in Amsterdam-1976 called Essence- the Heat and Warmth of Free Jazz. As I listen to this record, I feel the raw spontaneity combined with skilled musicianship that inspired countless free...
