October 2013 - The New York City Jazz Record

INTERVIEW© Sasa Huzjak / Courtesy of Ina DittkeGinger Baker is a drummer from South London, Englandwho became famous for his work with two short-lived buthugely successful groups of the mid to late ‘60s, Cream andBlind Faith, each featuring guitarist Eric Clapton. Beforethat, in the ‘50s and early ‘60s, he had been strictly a jazzmusician until playing blues with Alexis Korner’s BluesIncorporated and R&B with the Graham Bond Organization.In the early ‘70s, already well acquainted personally withAfrobeat sensation Fela Kuti, Baker traveled to Africa,adventuring across the Sahara and absorbing more of thatcontinent’s music in Ghana and Nigeria, eventually settingup a recording studio in Lagos. From 1970 onward, Bakerreleased dozens of albums and has had numerous musicalprojects with the likes of Kuti, Paul McCartney, SteveWinwood, Jack Bruce, Adrian Gurvitz, Johnny Rotten, JahWobble, Sonny Sharrock, Peter Brötzmann, NickySkopelitis, Bill Laswell, Bernie Worell, Foday Musa Suso,Nana Vasconcelos and many others. In the ‘90s he did someof his best jazz work with the Ginger Baker Trio, withCharlie Haden and Bill Frisell, and the DJQ20 with RonMiles, Artie Moore and others.There are a lot of wild stories about Ginger Baker outthere. He was once called the least likely person to survivethe ‘60s and is regularly described as quite surly and likelyto express himself with his fists. He is the subject of a recentdocumentary film, Beware of Mr. Baker, which preservesthese notions. Maybe this public image serves his career.Then again maybe it’s all true. However, when we spoke hewas quiet and reserved. Music seems to be what he reallycares about. He speaks and he performs with purpose. Atfirst his responses were little more than one word, but heopened up a bit and was quite good-humored and affable.The New York City Jazz Record: I’ve read that youdon’t play the drum set except at gigs and that youdidn’t even practice much over the years when youwere very busy. There must have been a time, or times,when you practiced quite a lot.Ginger Baker: No. Only in the ‘50s and very early ‘60s.I don’t really practice anymore at all. Once you canplay what you want to play, what’s the point ofpracticing?TNYCJR: Did [British jazz drummer] Phil Seamen[1926-1972] have a direct influence on practice?GB: He had a very big influence, yeah - not onpracticing, on time in general.TNYCJR: So you’d already practiced quite a bit andyou guys were just about music?GB: Yeah.TNYCJR: It sounds like you were kindred spirits.GB: Yeah, he was my drum Dad. He told people I wasthe son he never had.GingerBakerby Anders GriffenTNYCJR: I’ve heard that he was the greatest of the jazzdrummers over in Britain in his day.GB: Without a doubt.TNYCJR: I even heard that Johnny Griffin said hesounded like Philly Joe Jones.GB: Well, he never sounded like Philly Joe Jones, hesounded like Phil Seamen.TNYCJR: You’ve been prolific for decades now. Didyou have to motivate yourself to keep going or was itquite natural, with always something more to do?GB: I just played.TNYCJR: Wayne Shorter recently turned 80 years oldand I saw him in an interview where he said, “to me,the word “jazz” means: “I dare you.” Is that a sentimentthat resonates with you?GB: I dare you? I don’t know.TNYCJR: Many years ago you sought out some of thegreat jazz drummers and performed side by side withthe likes of Art Blakey and Elvin Jones.GB: I didn’t search them out, it just happened. TheMunich Jazz Festival had Blakey and I on the samestage on the same night and we just did a drum thingtogether. It started off as a drum duel and ended up asa drum duet. It was really cool.TNYCJR: And there was another time with Elvin Jones,correct?GB: Yeah, Elvin became a very close friend of mine. Hewas a really great guy, you know.TNYCJR: Who are some of the other drummers youplayed with?GB: Max [Roach].TNYCJR: You’ve been performing with Ginger Baker’sJazz Confusion for a couple years now. Is there specialsignificance to the name Confusion?GB: No. No significance whatsoever.TNYCJR: You’ve just completed several dates andyou’ll have some more before traveling to the States.How has it been going?GB: Everything’s been going extremely well. All ofthem.TNYCJR: It’s great for the fans that you’re out on theroad. May I ask how your back is fairing?GB: The spine’s all right. It’s before and after.TNYCJR: Is there a Jazz Confusion recording availableor forthcoming?GB: No, we haven’t done a record at all.TNYCJR: Is that in your plans?GB: Well, it depends on record companies, I guess.(CONTINUED ON PAGE 40)SCOTTNEUMANN’SNEU3 TRIOPRESENTS“Blessed”FeaturingMichael Blakeand Mark Helias“With Blessed, Neumann’s trio makes aworthy pilgrimage to the jazz holy land.”-AllAboutJazz.comCD Release ShowSmalls Jazz ClubSaturday, October 5th7:30 & 9pmAvailable in stores & onlineon ORIGIN RECORDSSCOTTNEUMANNMUSIC.COM6 October 2013 | THE NEW YORK CITY JAZZ RECORD

FESTIVAL REPORTA L’ARME! Festivalby Philip SmithDetroit Jazz Festivalby Andrey HenkinGuelph Jazz Festivalby Ken WaxmanPeter Gannushkin/DOWNTOWNMUSIC.NETLouis Rastig/Peter Evans/Johannes Bauer/Paal Nilssen-LovePhoto by Marek LazarskiAhmad Jamal(c) Susan O’Connor - www.jazzword.com/KAZEAs opening statements go, this was pretty explicit:Belgian percussionist Els Vandeweyer smashed herway through the five pulsating minutes of “RebondsB” by Iannis Xenakis before returning to her drums tohammer out a 30-second encore, screaming animpulsive accompaniment for good measure. Welcometo A L’ARME! Festival, Berlin’s celebration of arrestingavant garde music and experimental jazz (Aug.8th-10th).Now in its second year, the 2013 edition certainlylived up to the name (capital letters and exclamationmark included), with an international lineup ofimprovisers old and new bringing the sonicallyshocking to the fore. Noise rock bassist MassimoPupillo certainly got the brief and his dark descendingostinati met with the unsettling sonics of FM Einheit inone of the most visually engaging performances of thefestival (the latter resembled a man in the midst ofDIY-rage as he smashed bricks with a hammer andswirled the debris round an amplified metallicworkbench). A different but equally exhilaratinguniverse was created by Peter Brötzmann’s UK triowith John Edwards (bass) and Steve Noble (drums),joined by guest vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz fromChicago. The German saxophonist’s reed explorationsdrove a concert of relentless fire and melody, whichculminated in an achingly beautiful almost-cadence.Fast forward to the closing act of the festival andMichiyo Yagi’s idiosyncratic approach to the koto (inher hands transformed from delicate parlor instrumentto 12-stringed rhythmic powerhouse) was backed upby the urgency of her Japanese cohorts, saxophonistAkira Sakata and Tamaya Honda on drums, whomoved from folksong tranquility to abrasive sheets ofsound.Housed within the three rooms of Radialsystem V,a former pumping station turned creative space in thecity center, the festival’s serious musical intent wasbalanced by the relaxed interval atmosphere ofmusicians and audience sharing refreshments andthoughts in the bar and by the river. And the passingboats on the Spree provided the backdrop for the moreintimate music offered in the venue’s top floor studiospace. Here, Conlon Nancarrow’s unruly Studies forPlayer Piano were contrasted with improvised responsesfrom a variety of electro-acoustic ensembles.UK-Austrian unit Barcode Quartet stood out, withtheir subtle, patiently-evolving chamber texturesenlivened by percussionist Josef Klammer, who hadseemingly adopted a Nintendo Wii to trigger cartoonishsamples with his body movements. And thoughperforming in a different room, something Nancarrowianseemed to inform the final evening’s solo set fromBelgian pianist Fred Van Hove, whose keyboard-(CONTINUED ON PAGE 50)Given all the negative press of late, one might beexcused for wondering if the headliner of the 2013Detroit Jazz Festival (DJF) might be Nero and hisfiddle. Yes, the midwestern city is in serious troublebut what it may lack in economic stability it makes upfor in sincere pride; throughout the 34th edition (Aug.30th-Sep. 2nd), the rich musical history of the city andenthusiasm of its citizenry was invoked both on andoff all four of the festival’s stages.The DJF is a traditional jazz festival, meaning itinhabits the realm between, say, the heady avant gardeof the Vision Festival and the barely-jazz-programmingof the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Fest. But withinthe adjective “traditional” is remarkable breadth, nosurprise given the astonishing number and variety ofmusicians that have come out of the Motor City overthe decades (no room to list all of them...just know thatlabels like Blue Note owe Cass Technical HighSchool a great debt). So over Labor Day weekend - andall for free, by the way, making DJF the largest andlongest-running festival of its kind in the world -thousands of listeners made their way around HartPlaza and up Woodward Avenue, past Joe Louis’massive fist, to enjoy just how new and exciting“traditional” can be.Under the umbrella of classic jazz, there was theMack Avenue Super Band at the Carhartt AmphitheaterStage (CAS), an allstar agglomeration put together byDetroit’s premier jazz imprint. A set of blowingvehicles, the group was a showcase for the muscular,sax-like playing of young vibraphone star WarrenWolf. Trombonist Delfeayo Marsalis led an octet at theMack Avenue Waterfront Stage (MAWS), playing thenot-often-heard Ellington suite Such Sweet Thunder,perfect for a warm afternoon sitting by the DetroitRiver and staring at Canada (the music was actuallywritten for a Shakespeare festival in Canada). DavidBerger’s Jazz Orchestra is a NYC staple; at CAS, itsdeep swing was a lovely cushion for the precocioussinging of Cécile McLorin Salvant, a superstar in themaking. Also at CAS, local son Pepper Adams wascelebrated by The Three Baris, a triumvirate of hisvaried musical heirs: Howard Johnson, Gary Smulyanand Frank Basile (who even looks like a young Adams).Pianist Ahmad Jamal might hail from another industrialcity (Pittsburgh) but he entranced the mobbed CAS,remarkable in his ability to create an intimate clubenvironment with his sensitive touch; nothing likehearing “Poinciana” by the guy who defined it. Andanother pair of octogenarians also plied their finewares: pianist/vocalist Freddy Cole in an afternoon setat MAWS and, right after, alto saxophonist Lee Konitzat Absopure Pyramid Stage (APS) leading a youngerquartet in a spontaneous set of standards.(CONTINUED ON PAGE 50)New combinations and new conceptions, sprinkledwith touches of exotica, characterized the 20thanniversary edition of the Guelph Jazz Festival (GJF,Sep. 4th-8th). The GJF, located in a small universitycity, fewer than 100 kilometers west of Toronto, has,from its beginning, stretched the definition of “jazz”while avoiding populist pandering. The approachobviously works, with the GJF gradually expanding.On Saturday, afternoon and evening free outdoorconcerts now take place in front of city hall while thefree dusk-to-dawn Nuit Blanche offers intimateperformances in non-traditional downtown spaces.Confirming the festival’s international orientationwas the Canadian debut of Japanese pianist SatokoFujii’s KAZE quartet of trumpeter Natsuki Tamuraplus two French musicians: drummer Peter Orins andtrumpeter Christian Pruvost. Presented in the softseatedCooperators Hall of the River Run Centre(RRC), the performance was a marvel of timing andcolor, with pauses used as judiciously as kineticism.Fujii’s keyboard command led by example as shemodulated from delicate Chopin-esque plinking to aneventual climax blending a swing base with dynamicchording. Despite playing the same instrument, thetrumpeters avoided repetition or competition. Insteadone lifted the program with flowing open-horn toneswhile the other extended the rhythmic impetus by, inTamura’s case, cranking, rattling or blowing into noisemakers, or, in Pruvost’s attaching plastic tubingbetween the mouthpiece and horn’s body tube.Smacking the bass drum for emphasis to intensifyexcitement during the set’s final minutes, Orinsanimated the performance throughout.An equally inventive percussionist is Chicago’sHamid Drake. A long-time GJF visitor, as is bassistWilliam Parker, the pair joined Québécoise pianistMarianne Trudel for a first-time meeting in the samevenue. Someone who usually navigates the shoalsbetween notated and improvised music with refinedresourcefulness, Trudel highlighted unanticipatedmuscularity in her improvisations. As the performancerushed forward, eventually locking into a torrent ofrolling thunder, she maintained the pace with stabbingruns, high-pitched key chiming plus suddenunexpected romantic sequences. Accomplished rhythmpartners, Drake’s nearly effortless leaning into the beatfused with Parker’s power plucks not so much toaccompany as urge. Eventually the three parallel partsmerged into a jazzy lope.Another Québécois who produces inimitabletextures is guitarist Bernard Falaise. His solo programof crunching runs, repetitive loops and bansheescreamingstring distortions alienated or mesmerized afloor-seated audience at the Sukha Yoga Centre.(CONTINUED ON PAGE 50)THE NEW YORK CITY JAZZ RECORD | October 2013 13

EponymousNashaz (Ziryab)by Elliott SimonNear Eastern-flavored jazz projects have a longhistory and it can be tricky to give both parts of theequation their due. Too much jazz and it can becomecampy; not enough and, well, then it isn’t jazz. Theoud though is a bit more of a jazz latecomer and itsfirst appearance as a central jazz instrument is thoughtto be Ahmed Abdul-Malik’s seminal Jazz Sahara(Riverside, 1958). Brian Prunka was a jazz guitaristbefore he played oud and although his first instrumentis nowhere to be found here, Prunka makes good use ofboth skills on this eponymous debut from his bandNashaz.Prunka has put together a quintet well-versed inmusical hybridization. Most notable is trumpet playerKenny Warren (Slavic Soul Party, Sway Machinery),whose beautiful tone and mastery of the Middle-Eastern minor-keyed feel and microtonalities inherentto this music blends impeccably with Prunka’s oudruns. Warren is so good at flowing through andinfusing his music with Balkan, Middle Eastern,Spanish and probably other influences that these tunes,whose rhythms are hypnotic, take on singularcharacter. Likewise, Nathan Herrera, who at varioustimes plays alto saxophone, alto flute and bass clarinet,adds welcomed diversity to the soundscape. His jazzytongue-slapping bass clarinet solos are stellar.In addition to Prunka’s oud and the melodies, it isthe rhythm section that gives this music its excitingexotica. Both bassist Apostolos Sideris andpercussionist George Mel are veterans of the NYCworld jazz scene and, along with riq player (Arabictambourine) Vin Scialla, they are up in the mix for atrance-like surrounding. All these tunes were writtenby Prunka and the comfort the band shows with themis a testament to his grasp of both musics. His oudimprovisations are front and center, true to the melodicstructure but infused with bluesy jazz. The best worldjazz sessions marry existing world music with jazz tocreate something new; Nashaz does that and more.For more information, visit nashaz.bandcamp.com. Thisband is at Downtown Music Gallery Oct. 6th. See Calendar.EponymousPedrito Martinez Group (Motéma Music)by Adam EverettCuban-born singer/multi-instrumentalist PedritoMartinez presents a stunning debut for his eponymousLatin jazz quartet, which is based in NYC and performsregularly at Guantanamera Restaurant in Hell’sKitchen. Produced by drum legend Steve Gadd, thealbum features guest turns by trumpeter WyntonMarsalis and guitarist John Scofield, as well as Gaddhimself. All three lend a supporting hand in lifting upthe music.The core group consists of Venezuelan bassistAlvaro Benavides, Peruvian percussionist Jhair Sala,Cuban keyboardist Araicne Trujillo and the leader,who plays primarily congas; a variety of instrumentsincluding cowbell, bongo, guiro, chekere, cajon andtimbales put percussion at the forefront of the group.The piano is low in the mix and when exposed, theenergy drops considerably. But an enjoyable dramaticeffect is achieved when the rest of the band punchesback in with precise timing. Instrumental solos aregenerally pithy while the real improvisation stretchesout during the spirited and colorful “coro-pregon”sections (in traditional AfroCuban music, it is commonfor the singer to improvise against a repeated chorusfrom the band, a version of call-and-response).The album breaks character with the Latin-rock“Traveling Riverside Blues” and cover of The Jackson5’s “I’ll Be There”. These are great for live performances,but not very exciting on record. The album picks rightback up on the beautiful “Musica” with a playfullysimple melody, a suave breakdown with a Latin-meets-Boogie-Woogie piano pattern and more metric-bendingpercussion breaks for the rhythmically hungry. What’smost exciting is the band’s ability to ‘swing’, a term notused when describing music that is primarily set instraight eighth notes. In the context of Latin music, thisis done by conveying a considerable amount of feelingand energy while working together to maintain aunified sound.Martinez’ group navigates easily throughsyncopated four-part vocal harmonies, maze-likepiano montunos and energetic breakdowns accentedby jaw-dropping percussion hits, all the whilemaintaining that important sense of swing.For more information, visit motema.com. This group is atCity Winery Oct. 8th. See Calendar.Kenny Barron & The Brazilian KnightsKenny Barron (Sunnyside)by Alex HendersonVeteran pianist Kenny Barron has played Braziliansongs in the past, both on his own albums and withTrio da Paz and Dizzy Gillespie. But Kenny Barron &The Brazilian Knights is a rarity: a Barron albumrecorded in Rio de Janeiro with Brazilian musicians, anidea of producer Jacques Muyal.The core of this June 2012 session is an acousticpiano trio of Barron, bassist Sergio Barrozo anddrummer Rafael Barata (who work together regularlyas a rhythm section). Some guests are featuredextensively, including alto saxophonist IdrissBoudrioua, acoustic guitarist Lula Galvão andharmonica player Mauricio Einhorn. The latter is awarm, expressive player with a strong Toots Thielemansinfluence and appears on four pieces he composed (“JáEra”, “Curta Metragem”, “Tristeza de Nós Dois” and“São Conrado”) as well as Alberto Chimelli’s“Chorinho Carioca” (based on the chord changes of theVictor Schertzinger-Johnny Mercer standard“Tangerine”).The late pianist Johnny Alf, whose ‘50s recordingsare widely regarded as a precursor to the Bossa Novamovement, is also featured, via three of his classics(“Rapaz de Bem”, “Ilusão á Toa” and “Nós”). Fillingout the program is the aforementioned “ChorinhoCarioca”, Barron’s mellifluous “Sonia Braga”, BadenPowell’s “Só por Amor” and the Antonio Carlos Jobimstandard “Triste”. Claudio Roditi plays both flugelhornand muted trumpet on “Só por Amor” and hiscontribution is so appealing one wishes he appearedon more than one track. “Triste” starts out on anAfroCuban-influenced note, perhaps a nod to Barron’stenure with Gillespie, before quickly switching over toa Bossa Nova beat.Clearly, Brazilian rhythms are something thatBarron has quite a passion for and his swinging butlyrical pianism is right at home alongside the Brazilianmusicians who join him on this fine album.For more information, visit sunnysiderecords.com.

I Go HumbleTravis Sullivan’s Björkestra (ZOHO)by Fred BouchardWho is Björk and why does she have a jazz big bandnamed after her and working her book? For Björkestraleader Travis Sullivan, is she an ice goddess, visionarydiva or a “queen of provocation”? The saxophonist’ssecond quest into the Björk saga finds him chippingaway at icy hooks and snappy grooves, piping up theglacial ichor of her arctic mystery. His 15-piece band,its lone non-trad instrument being Ian Cook’s laptop,lays down skeletal charts with rip-roaring climaxesand riffing behind soloists.These eight tracks, averaging eight minutes,caught at a lively Jazz Standard show, capture some ofthe originals’ aura of twinkling vespers in a frozencathedral or indignant roars in the hall of a mountainqueen. Vocalist Becca Stevens captures much of Björk’squivering, hymnic intensity with smoky wisps ratherthan the composer’s icicle-shattering shrill, whetheryawning into the abyss on “Hyperballad”, cryingdown the weak-willed in “Army of Me” or cravingforgiveness on the title track; all have sturdily marchingensembles and strong sax solos by Sullivan and SeanNowell. Björk’s quirky riveting lyrics stand out asfunny on “Venus As A Boy”, played as straight bigband swing with Alan Ferber’s zesty trombone.“Hunter” opens innocuously with Yoshi Waki’sbass solo, but slinky laptop and sneaky backbeat leadto roughcut bone-and-reed flamenco stutters, whichconjure Gerald Wilson’s “Viva Tirado” with acidictrumpet by arranger Kelly Pratt. Similar triadicsingsong lines make the title track sound like “Hunter”with ascending two-bar licks and a badass band-unisonshout chorus. “Isobel” breaks the narrative as a quintetinstrumental, its echoey call-and-response tunetransformed by Art Hirahara’s haunting piano, soloand with ensemble. Two ballads, pensive Stevens tothe fore, serve as holistic encores. Sullivan drawsmaterial here from Björk’s mid ‘90s; since this griot’sgrip grows glacially, one wonders whether Sullivan’snext gambit might be her intimate whisperings onSelmasongs or cosmic bellowings on Biophilia?For more information, visit zohomusic.com. This project isat Jazz Standard Oct. 15th.

After six months of rehabilitation andreflection, Friedlander was ready to return to hispractice. The music here is evocative of many stages ofhuman experience and is both a beautiful work of artand an exquisite collection of music.Friedlander assembled two longtime associates torealize this music: pianist Sylvie Courvoisier and IkueMori on laptop. There is a fluent dialogue betweenabstraction and lyricism in this music, which issomething that has been a hallmark of Friedlander’scompositions and bands for years.The recording opens with the two-part “Frail As ABreeze”, which is disorienting, evocative, austere andheroic. “Dreams of your leaving” is a feverish storm ofabstract expressionism giving way to the ruminative“Dancer”, which alternates between cadenza-likepizzicato virtuosity and a repetitive bassline overwhich floats a ghost-like melody. On “Reaching Back”Courvoisier plays both harpsichord and piano and themix with Friedlander’s plucked melodies and Mori’sspectral processing is sublime. “Swim With Me” startswith an exposition that focuses on shimmering pianotrills, before alighting and forming a synergy with thebowed cello melody. “Insomnia” follows, with restlessmovements that always seem about to settle into aresting point, only to stumble back into agitatedgesture. “Cheek to Cheek” closes the album, featuringanother of Friedlander’s cinematic pizzicato melodies.Friedlander’s music has a special ability to mixvivid imagery with an openness that enables the mindto generate its own sense of time and place. Hiscompositions, here in particular, are both a breathtakingdisplay of craft and a powerful statement of devotion.One hardly needs to have experienced deep loss to feelthe power in this music, but those who have will findsomething quite profound with which to identify.For more information, visit skipstonerecords.com. Thisgroup is at The Stone Oct. 16th. See Calendar.Liquid SpiritGregory Porter (Blue Note)by Joel RobertsGregory Porter’s Blue Note debut follows on the heelsof two highly acclaimed albums that saw him hailed asone of the most exciting and creative new jazz singersto come along in years. That’s a lot to live up to, butLiquid Spirit doesn’t disappoint. It’s a logical extensionof the sound of his first two releases, similar musicallyand thematically, but still fresh and unpredictable.Porter once again delights with his expressivebaritone voice and genre-bending style, which infusesstraightahead, hard-swinging jazz with touches of ‘70serasoul, blues, gospel and progressive R&B. But whatreally sets the 42-year-old Californian-turned-Brooklynite apart from the crowd is his songwriting.Arguably no jazz singer since Abbey Lincoln has shownsuch promise as a composer and lyricist. (Fittingly, hepays homage to Lincoln here with an exhilaratingrendition of her classic tune, “Lonesome Lover”.)The 11 Porter originals include poignant,emotionally raw piano-based tunes (“Hey Laura”,“Brown Grass”, “Water Under Bridges”), which recallexpert pop craftsmen like Bill Withers or Carole Kingin their simplicity and precision; socially conscioussongs (“Musical Genocide”, “Free”) in the spirit of GilScott-Heron or Curtis Mayfield and high-spiritedgroove numbers, like the irrepressible, hand-clapping,going-to-church title track. Porter also performswinning covers of Ramsey Lewis’ pop-jazz hit “The‘In’ Crowd” and the ballad standard “I Fall in Love TooEasily”.For all the diverse directions his music takes,Porter remains very much a jazzman, with a keenknowledge of the tradition and his place in it. He’sjoined by the same core group of first-rate jazzmusicians that was featured on his previous discs(pianist Chip Crawford, drummer Emanuel Harold,bassist Aaron James and saxophonists Yosuke Sato andTivon Pennicott) and they work together splendidly.Liquid Spirit is another superb effort from an artistwho, if he’s not a major star yet, will surely be onesoon.For more information, visit bluenote.com.

Afro Blue ImpressionsJohn Coltrane (Pablo-Concord)by Terrell HolmesIn 1977, ten years after Coltrane’s death, Pablo releasedthe double live album Afro Blue Impressions, whichcaptured the saxophonist’s quartet during a 1963European tour. A CD version was released in 1993 andnow Concord has issued a two-CD set to mark the 50thanniversary, with new liner notes and bonus tracks.The ongoing debate over Coltrane’s musicsometimes has been as strident as any note he ever hit.What’s undeniable, however, is that he could play theblues and his gifts were on full display during this tour.To hear his majestic phrasing and tonality on the themeof “Lonnie’s Lament” and the brilliant, soaring“Spiritual” gives one chills. This blues pedigree alsoinforms ballads like the lyrical “I Want to Talk AboutYou” and “Naima”, where Coltrane solos brilliantly.While the exuberant dance of “Afro Blue” was usuallyon the live program, the quartet plays a swingingversion of “Cousin Mary”, which wasn’t. Moreover,Coltrane’s impassioned but compressed six-minuteversion of “Chasin’ the Trane” has an obligatory feelingto it, unlike the Joyce-ian stream of consciousness hehad unleashed at the Village Vanguard two years earlier.There are no constraints on “My Favorite Things”, a21-minute epic waltz filled with some of Coltrane’smost blistering soprano. Pianist McCoy Tyner stretchesout brilliantly on “Impressions” instead of merelycomping and later he and bassist Jimmy Garrison layout, leaving Coltrane and Elvin Jones to engage in aferocious tenor/drums duet.There are alternate versions of “Naima”, “I Want toTalk About You” and “My Favorite Things” includedfrom the tour, which were likely excluded to avoidredundancy. The tracks are great to hear but really don’tprovide any new perspectives on the original release.The true allure comes from hearing more music by oneof the greatest jazz groups ever at its creative peak.For more information, visit concordmusicgroup.com. AColtrane tribute is at Shrine Oct. 24th. See Calendar.The Road to JajoukaVarious Artists (Howe)by Kurt GottschalkThe Master Musicians of Jajouka have a long andstoried history. William S. Burroughs once referred tothem as a “1,000 year old rock band” and while theclaim might be dubious both historically andcategorically, it hints at their roots and their fanbase.The musical heritage stretched back centuries before itwas discovered by musicians Brian Jones and BillLaswell and writers Paul Bowles, Brion Gysin andRobert Palmer. The ensemble’s ritual trance music hasproven as inspiring to Western minds as the NorthAfrican culture from which they hail.With such diverse artists championing their work,it’s clear that the tradition is not averse toreinterpretation, which it receives to great lengths onthe The Road to Jajouka, a benefit album featuring a NewYork-heavy roster of heavy interpreters. Most of thenine tracks use the ethereal source music as a backdrop,often putting heavy beats over it, so the albumgenerally feels more like remixes than collaborations,but many of the mixes are alive and exciting.One of the most exciting is “Boujeloudia Magick”,a drum, flute and electric guitar wash by Lee Ranaldowith waves of distortion running underneath the sourcematerial. Ornette Coleman - who played with themusicians on his 1977 album Dancing in Your Head -matches bandleader Bachir Attar’s ghaita with his ownpinched and piercing alto. Bill Laswell does anunsurprisingly great job integrating Billy Martin andAïyb Dieng’s drumming with a funk underpinning andMarc Ribot and Shahzad Ismaily find R&B and LedZeppelin grooves within the music while John Zorn,Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea and Billy Martin laydown a high-energy jam with vocalist Falu. Thisjourney of a record ends with Howard Shore leadingthe London Philharmonic Orchestra in a cinematic mixthat brings to mind the ties he made between Morocco,Burroughs and Ornette Coleman for the soundtrack tothe 1991 movie version of Naked Lunch.The Road to Jajouka is a fun ride. It’s unlikely thatany listener will love all of it and equally unlikely thatno one would find their own groove within it. Proceedsfrom the album, which was produced by Billy Martin,go to benefit the Jajouka Foundation.For more information, visit howerecords.com. Billy Martin‘s50th Birthday is at Roulette Oct. 25th.

Theformer has widely recorded in Europe as a leader andsideman while his musical partner is better knownworldwide for his extensive recordings as a leader andin the bands of Clark Terry, Lee Konitz, Tom Harrell,George Robert and Bobby Watson, among others. Thisrecording chooses a variety of music from DukeEllington’s vast repertoire. Fortunately, even the mostfamiliar songs have fresh approaches, though Moronienjoys playfully inserting an occasional Ellingtonflavoredrun into his solos.Billy Strayhorn’s “All Day Long” is a rompingopener with inventive solos and terrific interplay. Theduo weaves its way into Juan Tizol’s “Perdido” with aroundabout improvisation, then settles on a briskreading while avoiding playing the theme outrightuntil near its conclusion. Their jaunty setting ofStrayhorn’s “The Intimacy of the Blues” graduallybuilds intensity to a stimulating finale. There’s a bit ofa surprise added to Ellington’s “In My Solitude” asMoroni overdubs a bassline and adds a friendly,relaxed vocal while he substitutes bass for piano intheir swinging take of “Just Squeeze Me”, playing ahip walking line for Ionata’s robust tenor. Theirenergetic performance of Strayhorn’s “What Am I HereFor?” would bring any audience to its feet.The pair have a special gift interpreting ballads.Moroni opens “Lotus Blossom” with a somewhatominous introduction before revealing its theme, withrich chord substitutions and embellishments that bringout the beauty of Strayhorn’s masterpiece; Ionata’sspacious, emotional playing is the perfect complement.A lush saxophone tone and thoughtful chords make“Day Dream” comparable to the duo work of Stan Getzand Kenny Barron. Ionata shifts to soprano sax forEllington’s infrequently interpreted “Heaven”,Moroni’s arrangement more breezy than reflective. Themajestic treatment of “Come Sunday” captures theessence of Ellington’s spiritual side. This brilliantsalute will stand the test of time.For more information, visit jandomusic.com.

BlessedScott Neumann/NEU3 Trio (Origin)by Ken WaxmanDrummer Scott Neumann has come up with an albumof unexpected excellence. He is one of the manyunjustly almost-unknown players who, with littlefanfare, create first-rate CDs, easily as good as anythingreleased by poll winners and media darlings.Neumann has been a pro since he was 13, in acareer gigging with big bands, small groups andsingers and in Broadway pit bands. NEU3 is filled outby soprano/tenor saxophonist Michael Blake, who hasknown Neumann since 1987 when they met at theBanff Centre, and bassist Mark Helias, a bandmate ofthe drummer since 2009.Helias’ power thumps set the pace for the disc asearly as the first track. Exhilaratingly underscored bycymbal snaps and well-modulated rolls, “Blessed” alsoshowcases Blake’s blending of Stan Getz-ianmelodiousness and John Coltrane-esque intensity intoa wholly original package. Besides sometimes playingboth saxes simultaneously, Blake also tootles a meanmelodica, as on “Garbanzo”. A pseudo-tango, thearrangement displays Helias’ guitar-like facility withtremolo strums while Neumann’s syncopation isterpsichorean without ever becoming clichéd.Facility with the blues is a yardstick for highqualityjazz and NEU3 easily measures up. On “Bluesfor RQ”, a pleasant romp named for Neumann’s youngson, Helias’ slap bass strategy exhibits his technicalcommand, even as he maintains the thick beat, whileBlake’s solo is both lilting and intense. Elsewhere, thesaxophonist‘s kazoo-like strains and honks addpressurized excitement to the jaunty, bluesy “KeepYour Heart Right”. Appropriately, the Helias-composed“Brothers” confirms the trio’s fraternal sophistication.Distinguished by Blake’s ney-like buzzing, the tremolopiece is feisty without ever losing its cheerful lyricism.Austrian Marxist composer Hanns Eisler (“Song of theUnited Front” and “And the Times are Dark andFearful”) as well as two different takes on the socialistanthem “L’Internationale”. Pietaro’s agility andexpressiveness fit nicely alongside the frequentlyinterwoven saxophones of Ras Moshe (tenor andsoprano and flute) and Rocco John Iacovone (alto andsoprano). On bass, Nicolas Letman-Burtinovic servesat times as the only person playing in the pocket andothers as a superstorm of percussive, shrieking bowing.It all combines to form a pretty well-executed - ifnot always focused - effort to test the boundaries ofspontaneous, acoustic improvisation, especially overthe more basic harmonic foundations of the modifiedEisler tunes. That out playing also reaches a particularlyfruitful peak in an entirely free improvisation entitled“One for Robeson”, in honor of Paul Robeson.The political elements of the record surface notonly in the aforementioned repertoire, but also twointeresting pieces that feature spoken word. First,Moshe gives a stirring reading of the Langston Hughespoem “God to the Hungry Child” - invoking images ofcapitalist greed and its resulting societal ills - oversoberingly sparse instrumental accompaniment. Then,in “The Proof Is Overwhelming”, Pietaro performs anequally impassioned recitation of a defiant protestspeech given by John Howard Lawson, an Americanwriter and communist, to the infamous HouseUn-American Activities Committee in 1947.In addition, vocalist Nora McCarthy makes aspirited appearance on the album’s second version of“L’Internationale”, fitting in effortlessly with jumping,jarring phrases and flights of improvisation.For more information, visit cdbaby.com/cd/theredmicrophone.This group is at The Firehouse Space Oct. 19th.

See Calendar.Speaks!The Red Microphone (s/r)by Sam SpokonyAnyone interested in buying this album shouldunderstand that it seems to have been created, at leastin part, for the purpose of inspiring listeners to engagein subversive activism in the name of some forthcomingsocialist revolution.Not that there’s anything wrong with that.The Red Microphone’s Speaks! is a structurallyadventurous, socially conscious and quite seriousdebut album from a piano-less quartet that owes muchto the urgent, fiery spirit of ‘60s-70s-era free jazz. Thegroup is led by the excellent vibraphonist John Pietaro,who sets an intense, politically infused scene for therecord, with arrangements of two pieces by the26 October 2013 | THE NEW YORK CITY JAZZ RECORD

Road*TripMike McGinnis + 9(RKM Music)by Elliott SimonÄngsudden Song CycleMike McGinnis(482 Music)This reviewer met clarinetist Mike McGinnis over adecade ago and was immediately impressed. Here wasa young player with an appreciation of jazz’ multipleguises, a wide-eyed enthusiasm for everything,compositional acumen and great clarinet chops. Hisfirst session as a leader, Tangents (RKM, 2003),showcased an abundance of traditional and worldlymusical influences. During that time, McGinnis toldme that he likes to think of his music “...as going on atrip with different people taking a turn at the steeringwheel.” With these two new releases, Road*Trip and theÄngsudden Song Cycle, McGinnis has himself taken thesteering wheel as leader, arranger, producer andcomposer.For Road*Trip McGinnis has assembled anadditional nine musicians to give the Third Streamnugget “Concerto for Clarinet and Combo” its due. Afull brass section of alto, tenor and baritone saxophones,trumpet, trombone and French horn gives him afantastic sonic palette. Pianist Jacob Sacks, bassist DanFabricatore and drummer Vinnie Sperrazza combinefor a solid rhythmic underpinning.In order to understand the concerto better,McGinnis spent time with its octogenarian composer,Bill Smith, learning its nuances. Beyond the music,McGinnis uses Smith’s concerto to place the clarinetartfully back at the epicenter of a large jazz ensemble,a rare occurrence in today’s jazz. The swinging 1st and3rd movements and bluesy 2nd movement haveMcGinnis keying the band while using the clarinet’swarmth to accentuate the brass voicings. His own“Road*Trip for Clarinet & 9 Players”, writtenspecifically for this band, clearly borrows in form fromSmith’s concerto. It swings but has a more cerebralpostmodern feel that is less constraining. Still verymelodic, it allows the band to explore more creativeimprovisational environs.Ängsudden Song Cycle is a poetically driven artisticstatement. McGinnis uses poetry and paintings fromartist MuKha to inspire a clarinet-centered, stringbasedsong cycle, portraying nature through achinglybeautiful arrangements.Guitarist Sean Moran, violist Jason Kao Hwangand Khabu Doug Young on cavaquino are a rich blendof strings that intermingle with McGinnis’ gorgeoustimbre. Fabricatore’s bass combines with SaraSchoenbeck’s bassoon for an equally rich bottom. Themusic and poetry meld into a cohesive structure asvocalist Kyoko Kitamura’s phrasing, diction andtimbre could not be more perfectly suited to theopulent surroundings. Harris Eisenstadt adds colorwith percussion and vibraphone to these otherwiseumber tones, which range from the catchy jazz/pop of“You are Morning” to the Spanish-infused tendernessof “We ate the Wood” and mysticism of “You were withme Inside the Wind”.McGinnis is confidently behind the steering wheelfor these two very different releases, maturelynavigating through disparate climes on his way toturning his music into art.TouchingEric Alexander (HighNote)by Alex HendersonTenor saxophonist Eric Alexander has recorded plentyof ballads over the years, but as part of albums thatalso had their share of uptempo offerings. But HighNote Records President Joe Fields suggested thatAlexander record an album solely of ballads and theresult is Touching. This session reunites Alexander withmany of the people who joined him on 2009’s Revival ofthe Fittest and 2010’s Don’t Follow the Crowd, includingpianist Harold Mabern (Alexander’s mentor for manyyears), drummer Joe Farnsworth and veteran engineerRudy Van Gelder (who was close to his 88th birthdaywhen Touching was recorded). The bassist, however, isJohn Webber rather than Nat Reeves.Ballad-oriented jazz albums, in many cases, play itmuch too safe when it comes to choosing material, butAlexander makes a point of finding worthwhile songsnot yet beaten to death. He does offer a warm, soulfulperformance of Jimmy Dorsey’s very familiar “I’mGlad There Is You”, but most of his other choices aren’tnearly as obvious: Michel Legrand’s “The Way SheMakes Me Feel” (from the movie Yentl); Sammy Cahn-Jimmy Van Heusen’s “The September of My Years” andJames Carr’s “Dinner for One, Please, James” (a songNat King Cole recorded in the mid ‘50s).Alexander has always been a major R&B fan andhe tackles two songs that have a strong R&B connection- “Gone Too Soon” (recorded by Michael Jackson andbefore that, Dionne Warwick) and the Chi-Lites’ 1972hit “Oh, Girl” - recalling gritty tenor players like GeneAmmons and Stanley Turrentine. Another one ofAlexander’s main influences is John Coltrane,acknowledged with a take of “Central Park West”. Butwhile Coltrane played the soprano on his famous 1960recording of that gem, Alexander pleasantly surprisesthe listener by sticking to tenor on his version.Touching, for all its novelty, still works well as aturn-down-the-lights mood album. Fields’ suggestionto Alexander was a prescient one and listeners can nowreap the rewards.For more information, visit jazzdepot.com. Alexander is atSmoke Oct. 1st, 15th, 22nd and 29th with Mike LeDonne.See Regular Engagements.For more information, visit facebook.com/RKMMusic and482music.com. Road*Trip is at Barbès Oct. 24th.

Enchanted SunRotem Sivan (SteepleChase Lookout)by Marcia HillmanEnchanted Sun is the debut recording for Israeli-bornguitarist Rotem Sivan, recorded with a studio audienceto capture the energy of a live performance. The albumis a collection of originals by Sivan with two selectionsfrom the Great American Songbook, played by a triowith bassist Sam Anning and drummer RajivJayaweera.Sivan has a delicate touch on his instrument,preferring to play more single notes, which show offhis dexterity, than full-bodied chords. Most of hiscompositions are melodic and in the tradition, such ashis 12-bar “Rodent Blues”, but the title track has aMiddle Eastern flavor and rhythm changes buildingup to a very fast tempo and then a quiet ending. Thetwo standards fare well, with a tasty rendition of theRodgers-Hart classic “Isn’t It Romantic?” and theGershwins’ “How Long Has This Been Going On?”,which features changing tempos and a fine Anningsolo. (Note: Odd that both these selections arequestions.)Another feature of Sivan’s writing is his ability tobuild dynamism into his compositions - arriving at apeak in the solos and then settling into quiet endingsLive(eg, the title track and “Sun Song”). What strikes thislistener mostly about this album is the tightness of thegroup and their constant interaction with each other;carrying on conversations and punctuating eachother’s musical ideas. This is markedly displayed onthe first track “Here With You” where Anning’s soloeasily blends into Sivan’s, Jayaweera injecting his owndrum commentary behind them.This CD provides a good introduction to thetalents of Sivan and his trio, whose joy in makingmusic with each other is quite clear.For more information, visit steeplechase.dk. Sivan is at BarNext Door Oct. 22nd.

It’s not only thelack of audience noise or the superb sound, but theintense focus and incisive interplay that suggests thewherewithal to ensure that everything was just so. Ofcourse husband and wife teams have a head start in thepreternatural communication stakes and in that regardviolinist Mark Feldman and pianist Sylvie Courvoisierrate alongside such illustrious pairings as pianistSatoko Fujii and trumpeter Natsuki Tamura and bassistBarry Guy and violinist Maya Homburger.They share another trait with the above-mentionedcouples, in that by now their music too is almostentirely sui generis; it sounds like no one else in itschallenging and thrilling blend of classical andimprovised tropes. Drawn from three nights ofperformance, the program comprises two lengthycompositions from Feldman’s pen, one fromCourvoisier and four joint efforts. Such is the range oftextures and dynamic shifts brought to bear that it ishard to credit that they are created by just twoparticipants who don’t even switch instruments. Ofcourse, part of the reason for the tonal variety restswith Courvoisier’s proficiency under the bonnet of herpiano as much as at the keys. Her manipulations andpreparations conjure a ghostly underpinning forFeldman’s austere lyricism on “Five Senses of Keen”.Feldman allies a vibrant tone with wonderfultechnique, as evidenced when he bows two or moresimultaneous voices during the edge-of-seat drama of“For Alice”. It is impossible to know whether themulti-sectioned “Orpheus and Eurydice” intends to beprogrammatic, but Feldman’s violin weaves a tanglednarrative arc as it sings, sighs, soars and weeps in adazzling rendition. Of the presumed improvisations,“Pindar” creates a bracing timbral exchange of creaksand crashes while “Calliope” provides a bravura finaleto the album, as the highest violin filigree pitch againstplucked piano wires, leading into a headlong sprint.Enter their universe and be beguiled.For more information, visit intaktrec.ch.
