Printmakers Presspack
THE PRINTMAKERS “In the old days, this band would have had the words “All-Stars” in their name. Every one of them is a leading figure in British contemporary jazz. Together, they create 10 evocative sound-pictures of places and times. It’s remarkable how just five instruments and voice can suggest space and depth as they do.” Dave Gelly, The Observer The word supergroup is common currency, especially in the rock world. Jazz, of course, has its fair share of supergroups too. Sometimes, one supergroup comes along that really is very special indeed. The Printmakers is such a group. The group formed at the instigation of Steve Mead at The Manchester Jazz Festival several years ago and since then has gone from strength to strength. Award winning Nikki Iles is one of the heroines of British jazz. She has made an invaluable contribution to the jazz scene in this country and beyond, while also making a very personal musical statement in many groups, not least her own superb Anglo-American trio with Rufus Reid and Jeff Williams. Grammy nominated and ECM recording artist Norma Winstone MBE, pioneering innovator of the voice, has been a leading light in European music for many years. She collaborated with Kenny Wheeler and John Taylor in Azimuth, described by Richard Williams as “one of the most imaginatively conceived and delicately balanced of all contemporary chamber jazz groups“. She has also worked with Fred Hersch, Steve Swallow, Jimmy Rowles, Mike Gibbs and Ralph Towner. She has had a resurgence recently, with three superb award winning ECM releases in collaboration with European musicians, Klaus Gesing and Glauco Venier. -

November 2017 www.mps-music.de Info und Artwork: http://www.herzogpromotion.com Stichwörter: MPS Records, John Taylor (p), Chris Laurence (b), Tony Levin (dr), 1973, audiophile 180g vinyl, CD, Download „Einer der größten Bühnenmusiker im Jazz der Gegenwart”, urteilt die renommierte britische Tageszeitung The Guardian über den englischen Pianisten John Taylor. Als Hauspianist des legendären Jazzclubs Ronny Scott’s begleitete Taylor viele Jazzgrößen. Dabei bekam sein ganz eigener Stil einen Feinschliff, durch den er zu einer der wichtigsten Stimmen im europäischen Jazz avancierte. Die Auftritte und Einspielungen seiner eigenen Bands, seine über lange Dauer bestehende Verbindung zum Trompeter Kenny Wheeler, seine vielen Trio- Aufnahmen für ECM mit Peter Erskine und Palle Danielsson sowie Gruppen, die von Jan Garbarek oder John Surman geleitet wurden – all das hat Taylors Rang gefestigt. „Decipher”, Taylors Album für MPS aus dem Jahre 1973 featuret zwei Spitzeninterpreten: Perfekt ergänzen Bassist Chris Laurence und Drummer Tony Levin das breit gefächerte Spiel Taylors auf einem Album, das dem Hörer einen genussvollen Einblick in seine Kompositionen ermöglichen. Die virtuosen Läufe von „Cipher” münden in die abwechslungsreichen Tempi und Gefühlswelten von „Wait For Me”, während „Leaping” ein abstrakter Austausch des Trios mit pointillistischen Zügen ist. Der gefühlvolle Jazzwalzer „Speak To Me” entpuppt sich allmählich als magisches Kunststück, und „Song For a Child” trägt die Stimmung einer sanft ausgesungenen Ballade. „White Magic” schließlich dient mit der heilenden Kraft des Swing als regelrechtes Elixir. -

Varsity Jazz
Varsity Jazz Jazz at Reading University 1951 - 1984 By Trevor Bannister 1 VARSITY JAZZ Jazz at Reading University 1951 represented an important year for Reading University and for Reading’s local jazz scene. The appearance of Humphrey Lyttelton’s Band at the University Rag Ball, held at the Town Hall on 28th February, marked the first time a true product of the Revivalist jazz movement had played in the town. That it should be the Lyttelton band, Britain’s pre-eminent group of the time, led by the ex-Etonian and Grenadier Guardsman, Humphrey Lyttelton, made the event doubly important. Barely three days later, on 3rd March, the University Rag Committee presented a second event at the Town Hall. The Jazz Jamboree featured the Magnolia Jazz Band led by another trumpeter fast making a name for himself, the colourful Mick Mulligan. It would be the first of his many visits to Reading. Denny Dyson provided the vocals and the Yew Tree Jazz Band were on hand for interval support. There is no further mention of jazz activity at the university in the pages of the Reading Standard until 1956, when the clarinettist Sid Phillips led his acclaimed touring and broadcasting band on stage at the Town Hall for the Rag Ball on 25th February, supported by Len Lacy and His Sweet Band. Considering the intense animosity between the respective followers of traditional and modern jazz, which sometimes reached venomous extremes, the Rag Committee took a brave decision in 1958 to book exponents of the opposing schools. The Rag Ball at the Olympia Ballroom on 20th February, saw Ken Colyer’s Jazz Band, which followed the zealous path of its leader in keeping rigidly to the disciplines of New Orleans jazz, sharing the stage with the much cooler and sophisticated sounds of a quartet led by Tommy Whittle, a tenor saxophonist noted for his work with the Ted Heath Orchestra. -

“Cannonball” Adderley
Journal of Jazz Studies vol. 9, no. 1, pp. 101-106 (Summer 2013) Portrait of Cannonball: Cary Ginell's Walk Tall Dustin Mallory Walk Tall: The Music and Life of Julian “Cannonball” Adderley. By Cary Ginell. Milwaukee: Hal Leonard Books, 2013. 190 pp. $18.99. Very few jazz musicians can say that their band had a Top 20 single and a Top 20 album. Within that elite group of artists, only two men can state in the same breath that they also performed on jazz’s best-selling album of all time, Kind of Blue. One is Miles Davis and the other is Julian “Cannonball” Adderley. Cannonball’s success in album sales is just one measure of his achievements, albeit a tangible one. However, a casual stroll through the practice rooms of any jazz school in the country or jazz club in a city will aurally reveal the sheer volume of musicians that practice, perform, and revere the vocabulary that poured from Cannonball’s saxophone. Yet, despite the respect that Cannonball has been accorded over the years, both measureable and immeasurable, there is relatively little in the way of published biographical information. With the exception of the occasional feature in a periodical, an entry in The Encyclopedia of Jazz, a handful of scholarly works, and a few publications geared toward theory or discography,1 Mr. Adderley’s biography has gone largely unwritten. Furthermore, it can be said definitively that there is nothing in the marketplace that even closely resembles a comprehensive biography. Cary Ginell’s Walk Tall is one of the first publications that sets theory, analysis, and discography on the back burner in favor of history/biography. -

Previous studies in the literature emphasise modal and blues content within the album, overlooking the creative principle that underpins Kind of Blue – repetition and variation. Davis composed his album by Signifyin(g), transforming and recombining musical items of interest adopted from recent recordings of the period. This thesis employs an interdisciplinary framework that combines note-based observations with intertextual theory. -

Cannonball Adderley introduces his recording of "Walk Tall," by saying, "There are times when things don't lay the way they're supposed to lay. Walk Tall: The Music and Life of Julian Cannonball Adderley regardless, you're supposed to hold your head up high and walk tall. His career began in with a Cinderella-like cameo in a New York nightclub, resulting in the jazz world's looking to him as "the New Walk Tall: The Music and Life of Julian Cannonball Adderley the successor to the late Charlie Parker. But Adderley refused to be typecast. His work with Miles Davis on the landmark Kind of Blue album helped further Walk Tall: The Music and Life of Julian Cannonball Adderley reputation as a unique stylist, but Adderley's greatest fame came with his own quintet's breakthrough engagement at San Francisco's Jazz Workshop inwhich launched the popularization of soul jazz in the s. With his loyal brother Nat by his side, along with stellar sidemen, such as keyboardist Joe Zawinul, Adderley used an engaging, erudite personality as only Duke Ellington had done before him.
