Soaring Saxophones and American Gothic
New York Times – Dec 23, 2007
SAM YAHEL TRIO: ‘TRUTH AND BEAUTY’ (Origin). Here’s Joshua Redman again on tenor saxophone in a sporadic long-running jazz trio led by the organist Sam Yahel with Brian Blade on drums. This record overcomes old organ-and-tenor jazz clichés so easily that you hardly think of them. The music is fluid flexible all parts running together the groove overwhelming. KARTET: ‘THE BAY WINDOW’ (Songlines). The idea of the mind-body split is old nonsense but if you’ve ever thought you feel or enjoy jazz through the intellect you’ve got to hear this French quartet.
