Gateway (reissue) (gatefold LP)
Cat: 450533 4. Rel: 30 May 24
Review: Gateway by John Abercrombie is a captivating journey through the realms of modern jazz fusion, featuring Abercrombie's masterful guitar work alongside Dave Holland's silky-smooth bass and Jack DeJohnette's dynamic drumming. Seamlessly blends traditional and progressive jazz elements, Abercrombie's compositions showcase intricate band interplay, with tracks like 'May Dance' and 'Jamala' highlighting the trio's ability to shape melodies around each other's instrumentation. Holland's bass provides a solid foundation, grounding Abercrombie's exploratory guitar solos, while DeJohnette's drumming adds texture and depth to the ensemble. Abercrombie's experimental approach to guitar sounds, as seen in 'Sorcery 1,' adds a unique dimension to the album, enhancing its dissonant yet accessible nature. Overall, Gateway offers a rewarding listening experience for jazz and music lovers.

Andando El Tiempo (180 gram vinyl LP + MP3 download code)

Review: Canadian jazz pianist and composer Paul Bley dropped this solo album in 197 on ECM, a year after he originally recorded it on September 11, 1972. It remains a landmark in ECM's solo piano legacy following Chick Corea's Piano Improvisations and Keith Jarrett's Facing You for the way it weaves a deeply expressive narrative and includes compositions by Carla Bley and Annette Peacock as well as Bley's own innovative reinterpretations of jazz standards. Tracks like 'Harlem' and 'Started' deconstruct familiar melodies into dreamlike abstractions and offer a new approach to free balladry. As biographer Greg Buium notes, the album remains "an imperishable gem."

The Blue Land (LP)
Cat: 589930 1. Rel: 04 Apr 24
Review: The Blue Land is Matthieu Bordenave's follow-up to his ECM trio debut and sees the addition of British drummer James Maddren, enhancing the ensemble's airy textural canvas with a more urgent, animated feel. Pianist Florian Weber's improvisations set the tone, displaying inventive tension and release. Bordenave's saxophone weaves a lyrical narrative, punctuated by bassist Moret and Maddren's perceptively timed contributions. The album strikes a delicate balance between tonal and abstract elements, as heard on the ominous title track and the meditative 'Cyrus.' With nods to Coltrane's 'Compassion"'and Jarrett-like piano, the ensemble delivers an intriguing and collectively expressive set of chamber ensemble pieces.

After The Last Sky (2xLP)
Cat: 753442 5. Rel: 25 Mar 25
Review: Solo Arabian nocturnes for oud return to haunt us on Tunisian-born musician Anouar Brahem's latest full-length project, backed by stellarly moving counterpoints for cello, piano and bass. Beginning with Arab traditional music as a start-point, Brahem has, over the course of his career, slowly verged into the domains of contemporary classical and jazz. Fusing tradition and modernity, his compositions have a chiffon feel, creaseless and impeccably recorded, yet they also stomach a certain chronicity and locale, indulging harmonic modes and inherited composition techniques.

Review: Recorded in 2014 but only now seeing the light of day, this long-shelved session unites an exceptional ensemble, including the legendary American jazz alto saxophonist and composer Lee Konitz, the ever-explorative guitarist Bill Frisell, pianist Jason Moran, bassist Thomas Morgan and the rhythmic backbone of drummer Andrew Cyrille. Together, they create a meditative yet dynamic set, balancing composed frameworks with fluid improvisation. The album unfolds with 'Black is All Colors at Once' , where Moran's delicate piano textures meet Bro's shimmering guitar, setting the stage for Konitz's gracefully introspective saxophone lines. Konitz, still remarkably inventive at 86, takes a rare turn on soprano sax for Haiti, a lilting, playful piece that gently sways with a hypnotic ease. 'Milford Sound' honors the avant-garde drumming pioneer Milford Graves with a free-flowing elegance, while 'Pearl River' ventures into abstraction, as Bro and Frisell intertwine their guitars into a rich harmonic fabric. One of the album's finest moments comes with 'Mar Del Plata', a wistful, sax-free waltz that echoes Frisell's most poignant work. Throughout the set, restraint and atmosphere take precedence, with every note serving the ensemble's delicate interplay rather than sheer technical display. Taking Turns is a luminous addition to Bro's catalog, revealing new depths with each listen. Thoughtful, spacious and beautifully realised, it stands as a quietly stunning moment in modern jazz.

Once Around The Room: A Tribute To Paul Motian (heavyweight vinyl LP)
Cat: 483865 2. Rel: 02 Mar 23
Review: Paul Motian was a groundbreaking drummer in the field of jazz who demonstrated the possibilities for creative expression on the drums beyond the roles of strict time-keeping. His former bandmate in his self-titled trio - Joe Lovano - and another past collaborator Jakob Bro have teamed up with a small ensemble to pay tribute to Motian's groundbreaking approach through original music and recordings of Motian's own piece 'Drum Music'. The work is as adventurous and atmospheric as you would rightly expect, glued together in style by a line-up including Larry Grenadier, Thomas Morgan and Anders Christensen.

Review: The latest album on Manfred Eicher's mighty ECM Records imprint comes from Jakob Bro, a Danish jazz guitarist who has been releasing a mixture of beautiful, inspired and thought-provoking music since 2005. On "Bay of Rainbows", he's joined by double bassist Thomas Morgan and drummer Joey Baron, though it's his layered electric guitar work - part Pat Metheny, part Jonny Nash - that catches the ear. As with many ECM releases, the material on offer here is not standard "jazz", instead twisting the form into new shapes equally inspired by ambient and experimental electronica (see the backwards solos and freestyle drumming of "Dug"). While the album is evocative and entertaining throughout, the focal point is undoubtedly closing cut "Mild (Variation)", an 11-minute ambient jazz epic that's breathtakingly beautiful.

Review: Freigeweht was originally released in 1981 and marked the debut of Rainer Bruninghaus, the already legendary keyboardist from Eberhard Weber's Colours and the Jan Garbarek Group. He teamed with ECM luminaries Kenny Wheeler on flugelhorn, Jon Christensen on drums and Brynjar Hoff on oboe for this project whose leader was hailed by the press at the time as "the most imaginative musician to employ minimal art in jazz" by blending influences like Steve Reich into playfully evolving constructs rather than rigid ideology. Wheeler's and Hoff's contemplative tones enhance Bruninghaus's lyrical themes here and all are driven by Christensen's dynamic propulsion. A truly evocative classic.

Old & New Dreams (reissue) (gatefold LP)
Cat: 450534 4. Rel: 22 Jun 23
Review: Old & New Dreams was a jazz group active from 1976 to 1987 - a four-piece bound together by their shared history as sidemen for free jazz pioneer Ornette Coleman. The line-up was Don Cherry on trumpet, Dewey Redman on tenor sax, Charlie Haden on bass and Ed Blackwell on drums, and between them they played renditions of Coleman's compositions as well as writing their own material. Having previously limited the restraints other musicians placed on them in past work, the assembled members of Old & New Dreams celebrated coming together and being able to push themselves further out, and the results on this seminal album speak for themselves. Remastered and reissued with the ever-present attention to detail of an ECM pressing, this is essential listening for anyone serious about jazz of all stripes, free or otherwise.

Review: ***B-STOCK: Record has light surface marks/scratches with creasing to corner of outer sleeve, but otherwise in working order***
New York-based Israeli trumpeter Avishai Cohen - not to be confused with the bassist of the same name - formed the Big Vicious band six years ago, though this self-titled album is the first time the outfit has committed any music to wax. While Cohen remains committed to jazz, many of his band-members have since gone on to make other styles of music. This shines through loud and clear on "Big Vicious", with the band variously fusing jazz instrumentation with elements of ambient, psychedelic rock, funk, spaced-out electronica, post-rock and trip-hop. The results are superb, with Cohen and the band brilliantly working their way through a mixture of original compositions and covers, including a stunning instrumental interpretation of Massive Attack's "Teardrop".

Cross My Palm With Silver (180 gram vinyl LP + MP3 download code)
Cat: 5739780. Rel: 31 May 17
Review: Avishai Cohen's last album, 2016's Into The Silence, was an emotional affair, with the Israeli jazz trumpeter delivering a poignant set seemingly inspired by personal tragedy. Cross My Palm With Silver wrestles with different inspirations, namely the ongoing violence in the Middle East. Cohen is joined by regular collaborators Yonathan Avishai (piano), Barak Mori (double bass) and Nasheet Waits (drums) for a set that puts his heartbreaking trumpet solos at the heart of the action. Highlights come thick and fast throughout. They include mournful opener "Will I Die, Miss? Will I Die", the abstract and involving "Shoot Me in the Leg" and the thrillingly upbeat closer "50 Years and Counting".
