Medeski Martin and Wood - Zaebos: The Book of Angels Vol. 11
(CD) Tzadik TZ7368, 2008-07-22

Info :
Focused, ecstatic and wildly improvisational, the trio of Medeski Martin and Wood is one of the most popular and vibrant instrumental ensembles of the last few decades, playing to packed houses from Budokan to Bonnaroo and back again. Original members of the earliest Masada units (reaching back to 1993), they are a natural choice to interpret the lyrical Book of Angels, and here return to the fold like three prodigal sons. Ten exhilarating and creative arrangements of Zorn compositions that alternately groove, lope, shred and burn with a fiery passion.

Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey - Lil' Tae Rides Again
(CD) Hyena Records, 2008-04-08

Info :
Lil Tae Rides Again, but even better Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey rides again. After laying fairly low in 2007, JFJO have re-emerged with a new album that will blow the minds of even those use to having their minds blown by the Tulsa trio. Joining the band for this record is underground electronic music producer Tae Meyulks. Together they leaped head first into an ambient alternate universe, creating a record that will tickle corners of the mind you didn't even know you had. It's beautiful and sprawling and very much a true jazz odyssey. We can't wait for people to start hearing it.

Download a free mp3 of "Tae Parade" here.

Pre-order JFJO's Lil Tae Rides Again before its April 8th street date on either CD or 180 gram vinyl and we'll send you a free bonus disc of "live" recordings from JFJO's 2007 fall tour that were hand-selected, mixed and mastered by Reed Mathis.
