ABCs of 90s Jazz

14 dec 2011, 00:18 av brianshazaaam

Cross-posted to A Stable Reference

Same deal with my 70s and 80s list, not a definitive best of, just good stuff. Again, good stuff cut, so no albums by Myra Melford, Gerry Hemingway, Chris Cheek, Michael Brecker, Danilo Perez, Marty Ehrlich, Butch Morris, Don Byron, Jon Jang, David Binney, Sam Rivers' Rivbea All-Star Orchestra, or The Vandermark 5. Also cut was the posthumous Charles Mingus Epitaph album, an over two hour work utilizing a 30-piece orchestra featuring Wynton Marsalis, John Abercrombie, George Adams, Randy Brecker, John Handy, and Bobby Watson, as well as Trey Anastasio's unusual one off side project Surrender to the Air, an avant-garde jazz group featuring Sun Ra alums marshall allen and Michael Ray, John Medeski from Medeski, Martin & Wood, and guitarist Marc Ribot, which is, obviously, much different from his better known jam-/folk-rock work with Phish and his solo albums.

Ask The Ages - Sonny Sharrock (1991 Axiom)

ABCs of 80s Jazz

22 aug 2011, 01:40 av brianshazaaam

Cross-posted to A Stable Reference

As with my 70s list, this isn't meant to be a definitive best of, just a fun place to start or pick up new suggestions. Again great stuff had to be cut, so unfortunately no Geri Allen, Chico Freeman, Anthony Braxton, Lester Bowie, John Zorn, the World Saxophone Quartet, or Max Roach with his percussion ensemble M'Boom or his regular quartet, or double quartet with the addition of the Uptown String Quartet, with Odean Pope and Cecil Bridgewater. Some wild big band records from Cecil Taylor, Muhal Richard Abrams, and Bob Moses were lost as well. Also dropped were the excellent Pat Metheny & Ornette Coleman collaboration Song X, Sonny Rollin's highly recommended G-Man, and any of Miles Davis' 80s albums because he was included on the 70s list.

Album Album - Jack DeJohnette (1984 ECM)
Bass Desires - Marc Johnson (1985 ECM)
Claude's Late Morning - Bobby Previte (1988 Gramavision)
Dauwhe - John Carter Octet (1982 Black Saint)
Eye On You - Ronald Shannon Jackson (1980 About Time)

Best Albums 2010

7 feb 2011, 10:29 av bonzoWhale

During 2010 I listened to a lot of albums, which made this top 10 a heck of a lot more difficult. This is why I will first talk about some albums that didn't make the final list, but are definitely worth checking out. Honorable mentions, if you will.

Many of the oldies came back in 2010 with pretty amazing albums, including World Gone Crazy, Mojo, Hard Knocks, Band of Joy and Clapton. All these are worth checking out.

Some bands came back strong while not exactly innovating, with great albums like
Asylum, Trans-Continental Hustle and The Illusion Of Safety.

Among other albums that were great this year, Tony Levin's new project released Soup as a fantastic debut, Tift Merritt's See You On The Moon is packed with beautiful songs, and Fire on Dawson shows their awesome proposal with Prognative. Lastly, Stone Temple Pilots is, while not a masterpiece by a long shot, an extremely fun album.

Of course, it wasn't all pretty last year. …
