Madeleine Peyroux's career took off in 2004 with her second album, Careless Love (Rounder), covering songs by such 20th century greats as Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan and Hank Williams. It was performed with a jazz sensibility, infusions of blues and touches of chanson, and mostly with jazz arrangements. In this respect, it continued the direction set by Peyroux's debut, Dreamland (Atlantic, 1996).

Remixed, remastered, re-upped and re-amped from its original 2007 release, Rhythm Edge (CD Baby) immediately grabs you with its free-ranged, deep- rooted soulfulness and classic vigor. A gifted, Hudson Valley gentleman, multi-reedist Eric Person's serpentine and soaring tenor, alto, soprano, and flutes are veterans of many years with Chico Hamilton,...

Jazz, twang, folk, chamber music, dub, and electronic production all melt into a hazy mist on this dreamlike instrumental from multi-instrumentalist/producer Myles Cochran that betrays the jazz influences of his youth in Kentucky. Though close in arrangement and style to the likes of Bill Frisell, Julian Lage, and T Bone Burnett, "On The Other Hand" shares as much in spirit with ambient-minded giants like Jon Hassell and Brian Eno.

On its way to becoming the stalwart fusion quartet it was in the '90s, Tribal Tech underwent more than a few personnel changes. (TT was more of a non-touring, studio entity in its early days.) One who held the keyboard chair for a scant two songs was Will Boulware. His presence on Dr. Hee (Relativity, 1987) was notable in that those two songs—"Seek and Find" and the above, "Solemn"—were written by him and they remain standouts in the TT canon for their interwoven complexity and modulating motifs. As bodacious as TT would become, it's still something of a gas to hear them straight-up, serving Boulware's wonderfully penned composition.

Ever heard of "fartlek"? It's a method of training for runners where they can play around with their speeds, very unstructured. That's sort of what this episode of One Man's Jazz turned out to be—all over the place in terms of style, tempos, musical variations and origins in the albums debuting. For instance, the Southeast Asian scene hits with a couple of freewheeling, open live sets with Philippines-based Rick Countryman, bassist Richard Alan Bates from Malaysia, and Japanese legend drummer Sabu Toyozumi. Guitarist Jessica Ackerley now making waves on the scene; there's music from a live set from 2019's FreeJazz Saar Festival by Germans Frank Paul Schubert (saxophone), Stefan Scheib (bass) and Klaus Kugel (drums) and the late and great bass clarinetist Michel Pilz. Two prominent English free-blowing saxophonists—Ron Caines and Martin Archer—hook up with their band Axis;, another recording in the Gauci Music Live at Scholes Street Studio series presents Open Question, featuring Daniel Carter. Bassist Kim Cass' new Levs with Matt Mitchell and Tyshawn Sorey will find its way onto best-of lists, and don't be surprised if Ephemeral Shapes by the prolific saxophonist Ivo Perelman with Aruán Ortiz on piano}} and Ramon Lopez on drums also appears on some of those lists. Topping all of that off is music from a trio celebrating its 47 years of making uncompromised music—BassDrumBone—Mark Helias, Gerry Hemingway and Ray Anderson.
