Ode to a Tenor Titan: The Life and Times and Music of Michael Brecker by Bill Milkowski

Ode to a Tenor Titan: The Life and Times and Music of Michael Brecker by Bill Milkowski

Source: All About Jazz

After John Coltrane, there was no more revered and profoundly influential saxophonist on the planet than Michael Brecker. For those coming of age in the 1970s, during that transitional decade when the boundaries between rock and jazz had begun to blur, Brecker stood as a transcendent figure. He was their Trane. Ode to a Tenor Titan follows Michael's story from growing up in jny: Philadelphia, finding his tenor sax voice during his brief stint at Indiana University, making his move ...

"Beka Gochiashvili" as Told by Bill Milkowski

"Beka Gochiashvili" as Told by Bill Milkowski

Source: Two for the Show Media

By Bill Milkowski At a recent showcase in New York, long-time friends and collaborators Stanley Clarke and Lenny White introduced 16-year-old piano phenom Beka Gochiashvili to an unsuspecting crowd of jazz fans at the Blue Note. In simple terms, the kid completely blew me away. His time was flawless, his technique impeccable, his touch and intuitive sense remarkably developed. And as a soloist, he had a killer instinct that belied his gentle demeanor. Truly this was an old soul living ...

Brian Eno - Small Craft on a Milk Sea (2010)

Brian Eno - Small Craft on a Milk Sea (2010)

Source: Something Else!

By Nick DeRiso He's got a name that sounds like the future. So, naturally, you expect Brian Eno to be ever changing, on the move, eyes continually fixed on the horizon. That's why I was starting to hate Small Craft on a Milk Sea. Eno's new album opens with a crystalline piano line, echoing across a frozen ocean of cloud on “Emerald and Lime," before this smeared keyboard ushers in a wandering guitar in “Complex Heaven." For fans of Eno's ...

Crate Digging with Bill Milkowski

Crate Digging with Bill Milkowski

A recent edition of DownBeat magazine detailed in part a new project to release Newport Jazz Festival performances online. The project is being undertaken by a company called Wolfgang's Vault, and they've had the good sense to engage longtime jazz scribe Bill Milkowski as their intrepid “crate digger", trolling through the rich archives of recorded Newport performances for viable nuggets for online availability. The news seemed to require a bit broader investigation than was afforded by the item in DB, ...

Milk Studios Gone Hollywood The firm, which is expanding from New York, will spend millions to upgrade a 46,000-square-foot, half-century-old industrial building on Cahuenga Boulevard.

Publishers and advertisers can't get enough of Hollywood, the photography studio says. Some of its space may rent for $10,000 a day. One of New York's best-known photo studios said Friday it will open a large branch in Hollywood to take advantage of America's changing tastes in magazine covers and advertising campaigns.
