From Steady Bloggin ': " Hooray for bootlegs. The cover is self explanatory – this is a compilation collecting the original sources used by Large Pro in creating Breaking Atoms. Naturally the main target demographic here are the sample nerds. However this also works as a good mix of assorted classic rock/funk/soul/jazz jams so you can enjoy it even if you don’t give two shits about...

Devon Sproule + Mantler, Norwich Arts Centre, 16th October 2009 This was an interesting evening's entertainment. You certainly got your money's worth, but I think I'm getting too old to stand in one place for 2+ hours these days! First up, and introduced by Devon Sproule, was Mantler, aka Chris A. Cummings, a singer and electric pianist from Canada. I was bit worried when a dumpy, balding bloke (yeah,...

By the time Ernest “Ernie” Barnes, Jr. (1938-2009) passed away this past April, he had truly achieved the American dream. He went from being a “fat” and “introverted” child who wasn’t allowed into art museums because he was black to a renowned artist with exhibitions in prestigious galleries. Along the way, he was also an [...]

Concord Records is wrapping up its epic reissue program of saxophonist John Coltrane’s music recorded for the Prestige label in the late 1950’s. As the name implies, this set tracks Coltrane’s appearances as a sideman for the label. His most notable sideman appearances during this period are outside the scope of this set, and those performances with Thelonious Monk and Miles Davis...

"The Color Purple," based on Alice Walker's powerhouse novel, makes a return trip to the Aronoff's Procter & Gamble stage, in a production every bit as precise and impassioned as it was when it was last on the Aronoff stage 18 months ago.

These statements are borne out by the music which is mostly...
