Pianist McCoy Tyner's dramatic arpeggios, thunderous bass pulses and modulated chord voicings have inspired generations of aspiring jazz musicians. An acoustic purist who sustained a viable career through the heavily electrified fusion era, Tyner has maintained impressive consistency in his performances and recordings since his seminal tenure in John Coltrane's classic mid-sixties quartet...

"I was truly moved by Johnnie Bowtie Barstow' interpretations, so moved in fact that I felt compelled to go to my garage, get my chain saw, and cut down the beautiful 107 year old oak tree in my front yard. I don't know why, but it seemed like the most appropriate thing to do.." Samples on the left of the page... Comments

BLUES TOWN (The City Of Blues) (Free subscription) | 08/31/2008
Equal parts Sonny Sharrock spikiness and John Scofield fluidity, James Blood Ulmer was one of the most progressive guitar heroes on offer in the '80s, emerging from his work with Ornette Coleman as a jazz-funk-rock force with which to be reckoned. Later on he got the idea (not one of his best) that he should pursue blues playing and singing. While there are a couple of examples of that here, it's best...

NEW YORK, Aug. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Like a fine vintage wine -- an
epicurean delight near and dear to Miles Davis (1926-1991) -- the music
contained on Kind of Blue reveals added nuance and unexpected pleasures the
older it gets. And yet with each year that Kind of Blue ages, it goes
through a rejuvenation process that is exciting to behold. The essence of
the 1959 album has never been duplicated. That...

There's only one certainty in the realm of vault material released by Warren Haynes and the Gov't Mule camp: we don't know when any of it will see the light of day, but there will be more—and eventually, we'll get it all. With so many projects going on at once—Haynes is among everything else an idea man—there's been a number of false starts for various promised projects (we're still waiting for the...

Few guitarists in jazz have been as naturally talented as Joe Beck. On an appearance in the UK in 2000, accompanying the singer Nnenna Freelon, the Times critic wrote: "Beck combines the spacey, resonant upper register of contemporary guitarists such as John Scofield or John Abercrombie with a more focused lower range, creating the illusion that he is accompanying himself on the bass." His use of passing...

Once upon a time Wes Montgomery plugged in his guitar and changed the way the world listened to jazz. Since then the guitar pick has been passed on to artists including George Benson, Earl Klugh, John Scofield and Pat Metheny, and each and every one has pushed the genre just a little bit further. With Love and Paragraphs, guitarist Chris Standring makes a fair bid to push it the next step forward....
