Friends & Neighbors: Circles

by Mark Corroto
Let's talk about Bird. Bird, not as in the sobriquet given to Charlie Parker but the actions of a bird, such as a parrot. Many a musician mechanically repeats the music of their musical heroes. For example, after Parker, we hear Phil Woods and Sonny Stitt recycling bebop. The Miles Davis' quintet of the 1960s begat ...

Friends & Neighbors: The Earth Is #

by Mark Corroto
The importance of choosing a name for your jazz band is often underestimated. Take the quintet Friends & Family for instance.

The Way Ahead: Bells, Ghosts and other Saints

by Mark Corroto
Perry Farrell, of the rock band Jane's Addiction, might have said/sung it best in 1988, on the track Ted, Just Admit it..." when he whispered Nothing's Shocking." Indeed, nothing is in the 21st century. Marcel Duchamp's painting Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2" (1912) is mostly admired today, and certainly not the trigger for a riot. ...
Mars Williams / Tollef ?stvang: Painted Pillars

by Mark Corroto
If you only know saxophonist Mars Williams from his gigs with the post-punk band The Psychedelic Furs or the hip-hop/funk band Liquid Soul, you're missing out on a talented and dedicated free-jazz improviser. He scatters himself in many directions, from collaborations with Chicago's Ken Vandermark, Tim Daisy, Jim Baker and Michael Zerang, to work in Europe ...
