CADENCE JAZZ 1215: Bob Szajner is a bopster and prolific composer. He's been in and out of the Detroit Jazz scene since the 1950's. This release documents one of his last concerts and gives ample evidence of his talents and abilities. Complementing this package are extensive notes by the pianist along with perspectives by Michael Nastos and Bob Rusch. This nicely fills in a gap in Detroit's Jazz history and is the complete package.

If You Should GoTomas Ulrich (Primary), Rolf Sturm (Guitar), Michael Bisio (Bass)Welcome to the debut of Tomas Ulrich's Cargo Cult. This recording so impressed the folks at CIMP Records that they immediately contracted for three recordings on that label. Hard to describe this group as it comfortably draws from a broad pallet, not just from the Jazz/improvised music genre but from the so-called Classical, Pop, and Rock genres. On this live date you'll get Cargo Cult in the raw ...

Ride Of Your LifeGeorge Dulin Disband (Primary), Danny Zanker (Bass), Take Toriyama (Drums), Jordan Perlson (Drums), George Dulin (Piano)This is George Dulin’s first release and what a wondrous debut. Cadence Jazz suspects he may be a new stylist—but with only one release it’s hard to tell. What is certain: he is assured and mature in his original workings based, basically, on some great old standards.
For those who think inside can no longer challenge direction and performance, this will test that assumption. The liners say he’s “an alchemy of Bud Powell and Don Pullen” while George Garzone calls him unique. We just call it wonderful listening.

Partners in CrimeMat Marucci (Primary), Doug Webb (Saxophone), Joe Dolister (Bass)This Marucci-Webb collaboration predates the remarkable CIMP recordings by this well matched team (CIMPs 346 and 356). This trio recording—made live in 2004 in Sacramento, California—is a nice combination of originals and standards. Those familiar with their previous releases will immediately recognize the style of this one's accessible inventiveness. If this is a crime, it sure is a ...

Euphoria RipensBarry Wallenstein (Vocals & Poetry), Adam Birnbaum (Piano), Steve Carlin (Guitar), Daniel Carter (Saxophone, Clarinet, and Trumpet), Vincent Chancey (French Horn), Bob Cunninngham (Bass)Barry Wallenstein writes distinctive and accessible poetry and possesses a distinct voice that delivers prose clearly and with a hip, unaffected style. Perhaps what most distinguishes his recorded work is the respect for and equality of the music, of which his thoughts are an integral part.
Music and vocals are partners in this thoughtful and stimulating venture. It is a great balance between word and improvisation and is most listenable on many levels and demands.
Catalog Number: Cadence Jazz Records 1209

Papajo: Simple GamePaul Hubweber (Trombone), Paul Lovens (Drums & Cymbals), John Edwards (Double Bass)Pure improvisation. These three are so conversant with the language of improvisation and their technical abilities are such that when they jump into the explorations they go right to the heart of the conversation. It's a profound trio-logue and makes for wonderful focused listening. And it's a live concert.
Catalog Number: Cadence Jazz Records 1208

AireMathias Rissi (Tenor-Alto Saxophone), Guerino Mazzola (Grand Piano), Heinz Geisser (Percussion)With this release, AIRE, this charging, dynamic, and inventive trio completes the cycle of elements of life that previously included Fuego (Creative Works Records), Tierra (CadenceJazz 1130) and Agua (CadenceJazz 1150). If you're still not familiar with the individual or group work of these 3 dynamos, this is as good a place to start as any. Hard music for hard listening.
Catalog Number: Cadence Jazz Records 1207

My Fingers Will Be Your TearsAndrew Drury (Primary), Briggan Krauss (Saxophone), Myra Melford (Piano)Andrew Drury, as evidenced on this fine recording, is obviously a drummer with both a secure rhythmic sense and the ability to mess with metronomic time (yet still hold the flow of the music). Andrew brings together Myra Melford's directional piano and Briggan Krauss' distinctive sax approach/sound to form a power trio that fearlessly throws itself into edgy compositions and constructions. ...
