John Lake: Seven Angels
by Jim Worsley
Compelling is the first word that comes to mind in describing John Lake's debut record as a leader. Eight Lake originals, adjoined by three reimagined tunes from the past, comprise Seven Angels. A seasoned studio musician and sideman, Lake knew his time had come. He is joined by five stellar musicians who collectively build a liquid sextet. A lesser known artist doesn't have the luxury of time. He/she has to grab attention quickly. With that in mind, Lake ...

by Dan Bilawsky
On the surface it can be viewed as somewhat ironic that an album dubbed The Process is actually saxophonist-composer Paul Jones' least process-driven recording. His debut, Short History (Blujazz Productions, 2014), and its brilliant follow up, Clean (Outside In Music, 2017), are, after all, far more focused on procedural formulations and architectural specificity than this quartet date.

by Dan Bilawsky
When saxophonist Paul Jones delivered his literature-indebted debut--Short History (Blujazz Productions, 2014)--it marked him as an intellectually curious seeker, eager and willing to walk a different path.

It's a giant leap forward in terms of artistry and concept. Jones spent the early part of 2016 at ...

by Ed Kopp
R.L. Burnside’s Ass Pocket ‘o Whiskey was a college radio smash for Fat Possum Records, the Oxford, Miss., label that specializes in crude country blues. Paul Jones’ Pucker Up Buttercup seems directed at the same audience. Like most Fat Possum artists, Jones hails from the hills of northern Mississippi. His rugged guitar playing is heavily distorted on many of these tracks, and his singing is marked by a lot more attitude than on his widely praised debut Mule. The distortion ...

ZEPPELIN'S BASS GOD IS A HEARTY 63-YEARS-OLD TODAY
The quiet one" in Led Zeppelin was also the one responsible for many of that band's innovative nuances, not to mention his strata shaking low end brilliance. We adore every little thing about John Paul Jones - his musicianship, his versatility, his gentlemanly ways. JPJ is everything good about serious rock musicians, and he embodies much of the underlying philosophy here at JamBase, where a dedication to great music - of whatever ...
