The Vinyl Anachronist

Boomslang from Rich Halley | The Vinyl Anachronist

December 14, 2021 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Boomslang from Rich Halley | The Vinyl Anachronist

Boomslang from Portland-based saxophonist Rich Halley has provided a soundtrack of sorts to this point in the holiday, where the pressure and the last minute planning and the things that don’t quite work out the […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Alexander McCabe, Body & Soul | The Vinyl Anachronist

November 24, 2021 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Alexander McCabe, Body & Soul | The Vinyl Anachronist

I barely made it through another year of holiday jazz releases, and I have to admit I skated a little because I only talked about one release from Jeff Hamilton as if that’s the only […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Kenny Shanker, Beautiful Things | The Vinyl Anachronist

September 2, 2021 Marc Phillips 1

Saxophone player Kenny Shanker and his new album, Beautiful Things, act as quite the polar opposite to the Swiss and Russian jazz that has dominated my review schedule over the last few weeks. These international […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Dan Moretti, Tres Libre | The Vinyl Anachronist

July 7, 2021 Marc Phillips 1

Some of my favorite jazz trios are sax trios, proven by my continuing awe at classic LPs such as Sonny Rollins’ Way Out West. I feel as if they’ve been rare lately, and perhaps that’s […]

Best Buddies: Troy Roberts and Tim Jago | The Vinyl Anachronist

June 1, 2021 Marc Phillips 1

I’ve seen this type of album cover quite often in the world of contemporary jazz, just a photo of the artist or two, and the simplest of titles that suggest no one cared about the […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

David Angel Jazz Ensemble, Out on the Coast | The Vinyl Anachronist

February 4, 2021 Marc Phillips Comments Off on David Angel Jazz Ensemble, Out on the Coast | The Vinyl Anachronist

I’m a big proponent of quality over quantity, which is perhaps why I don’t own a lot of those monstrous box sets on CD or even on LP for that matter. Perhaps it’s also because […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Jeff Ellwood, The Sounds Around the House | The Vinyl Anachronist

January 18, 2021 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Jeff Ellwood, The Sounds Around the House | The Vinyl Anachronist

The new album from sax player Jeff Ellwood (website), The Sounds Around the House, is the perfect soundtrack for cold, windy days like this. First of all, it’s not really day music–at least in normal […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Matt DeMerritt, Fool’s Journey | The Vinyl Anachronist

November 24, 2020 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Matt DeMerritt, Fool’s Journey | The Vinyl Anachronist

It’s strange how music and the visual arts can bounce off each other, creating new echoes. Vincent Van Gogh has been my favorite artist for quite some time, ever since hundreds of his works toured […]

The Vinyl Anachronist

Nicholas Brust, Frozen in Time | The Vinyl Anachronist

October 22, 2020 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Nicholas Brust, Frozen in Time | The Vinyl Anachronist

After a week of decidedly avant-garde recordings that glance off the side walls of contemporary jazz, Nicholas Brust and his latest album, Frozen in Time, are a needed respite. Referred to as a “premiere saxophonist […]

Music

Troy Roberts, Stuff I Heard | The Vinyl Anachronist

April 16, 2020 Marc Phillips 1

Stuff I Heard, the new album from saxophone player Troy Roberts, is the polar opposite of yesterday’s Doug MacDonald music review. The Coachella Valley Trio’s Mid Century Modern was easy, familiar and yet expertly played, […]
