Alvin Fielder
Born:
To make an impact on the world, a person isn't required to be famous or rich. This is exactly the case with jazz drummer Alvin Fielder. "Al," as he is called by many of his friends, has put all his efforts and skills into bringing jazz music to the 21st century. Yet many people of the world don't recognize him. Fame and fortune is not what Fielder desires. His love goes to the community, friends, and the world; not for money, not to be a star, but to be someone that they can look up to. So after thirty years of hard work, respect for Mr. Fielder is well past due. Alvin Fielder was born in Meridian, Mississippi, on November 23, 1935
Danny Kamins: Pracownia Wschodnia/The Creamery
by Mark Corroto
Texas saxophonist Danny Kamins heads to church. Musically speaking, that means the sacred sound of John Coltrane. But before he can fully enter that space, he must first run the gauntlet and undergo a kind of sonic purification. This process is reflected in both his discography and the opening moments of Pracownia Wschodnia / The Creamery. ...
Joel Futterman: Innervoice
by John Sharpe
Veteran pianist Joel Futterman may be best known for his long association with saxophonist Kidd Jordan and drummer Alvin Fielder, but he is also a prolific purveyor of solo sessions. Innervoice, recorded in July 2024, is a worthy addition to a tally that also includes gems like the monumental five CD box set Creation Series (NoBusiness, ...

Joel Futterman: Innervoice
by Mark Corroto
On each of the three tracks that comprise Innervoice, pianist Joel Futterman begins with just two notes. Each note resounds in the listener's ear long after the auditory perception has faded. These two notes act as Futterman's conjuring device for what is to come. The pianist, now in his eighth decade, is playing as strong as ...
Kalaparusha Maurice McIntyre: Live From Studio Rivbea
by John Sharpe
Kalaparusha Maurice McIntyre is in some ways the forgotten man of Chicago's pioneering Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM). He appears on two of the first albums to come out of the collective: Roscoe Mitchell's Sound (Delmark, 1966) and Muhal Richard Abrams' Levels And Degrees Of Light (Delmark, 1968); and was the leader of ...
Rudi Mahall, Fabian Dudek, John Blum & Tarbaby
by Maurice Hogue
The shrinkwrap comes off several new albums sampled in this show, and there's a decided tilt to Europe. One of the stalwarts of the European avant-garde, Rudi Mahall, offers The Straight Horn Of Rudi Mahall, his first album playing only clarinet. Another reed player from Germany, Fabian Dudek doesn't hold anything back on his intriguing Distant ...
Dopolarians: The Bond
by Vincenzo Roggero
Rispetto alla formazione che diede alle stampe l'ottimo Garden Party, ci sono due avvicendamenti: Brian Blade sostituisce Alvin Fielder, storico batterista membro dell'AACM, deceduto pochi mesi dopo quell'incisione e il trombettista Mark Franklin al posto del veterano sassofonista Kidd Jordan. Ma lo spirito e l'approccio rimangono gli stessi, un dialogo aperto tra musicisti di generazioni differenti ...
Chad Fowler / Matthew Shipp: Old Stories
by Mark Corroto
Call it kismet, karma, astral influence or just plain luck, but when two musicians instantaneously click upon meeting, magic happens. Indeed, that was the case with the coming together of saxophonist Chad Fowler and pianist Matthew Shipp. The New York-based Shipp is ,of course, well known to adventurous listeners from his solo and trio recordings, plus ...
Joel Futterman & Steve Hirsh: Warp & Weft
by Mark Corroto
Neuroscientists, psychologists, philosophers, and modern Buddhist practitioners have all grappled with the concept of consciousness. On one hand, the science-oriented folk propose consciousness to be stuff that designates the 'me' inside a person vis-à-vis the world, whereas the more spiritual approach eschews a dualistic definition in favor of a universal or 'one' consciousness. If we take ...
