One Final Note Reviews

Reviews from One Final Note:

Miles Davis
The Cellar Door Sessions 1970
(Columbia Legacy)
by Clifford Allen

The group took four days to get from jubilant conviction to a heady, dissonant stew, but the Cellar Door sessions are still some of the least oblique dates of Davis’ career.

Tomas Korber
Effacement (Cut)
by Jason Bivins

A long time in the making, this recording represents not only a significant compositional statement, but also a kind of breakthrough in Korber’s technique.

Eyal Maoz
Edom (Tzadik)
by James Beaudreau

Put Electric Masada on one side, and John Scofield’s 1997 CD A Go Go on the other, and you have a pretty good starting point image of Edom in the middle.

James Jabbo Ware
Vignettes in the Spirit of Ellington
(Y’all of New York)
by John Eyles

If the album title modestly understates its ambitions, the music surely exceeds them.

Judi Silvano
Sound Garden (JSL)
by David Dupont

No rendition of ” Black Hole Sun” here; rather the listener is treated to celestial sounds of an entirely different nature.
