Otra entrega de buen jazz desde La Montaña Rusa. Abrimos con nuestro clásico que en esta ocasión fue The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions con Miles Davis al frente de una super banda de por aquel entonces, jovenzuelos rebeldes del jazz y que hoy en día son la creme de nuestro jazz contemporáneo.
Miles Davis al que escuchamos al frente de esa superbanda que dió forma al mítico Bitches Brew de 1969.
En nuestra sección de Jazz en Español, volvimos a escuchar a esa estrella fulgurante de nuestro firmamento jazz que es Marco Mezquida, esta vez junto a su trío y al saxofonista Bill McHenry en este Cantabile del año 2015.
En las Novedades, escuchamos el nuevo trabajo del guitarrista Scott Dubois, una maravilla intimista llamada Autumn Wind y cerramos con el nuevo trabajo de esa máquina del ritmo que son los Kyoto Jazz Sextet con más de 20 años a sus espaldas de brillante trayectoria mezclando el jazz con las tendencias electrónicas del momento.

Bueno pues ya de vuelta después de una temporadica de silencio y descanso. Volvemos con las pilas cargadas a tope y con el objetivo de seguir compartiendo el buen jazz clásico y contemporáneo con todos vosotros.
El gran John Abercrombie, uno de nuestros más admirados guitarristas. Enorme!
Volvemos con este super macro mega Especial dedicado a la trayectoria maravillosa del gran John Abercrombie que nos dejó hace unas semanas. Para los que hacemos La Montaña Rusa, Abercrombie es y será siempre EL JAZZ con mayúsculas. Su música representa lo que más nos gusta de ese extensísimo universo llamado Jazz.
Lo vamos a echar mucho de menos pero siempre nos quedará su grandísima obra, fascinante, intensa como pocas, brillante y maravillosa. Gracias Mr. Abercrombie por hacernos destinatarios de su enorme trabajo. Lo disfrutaremos durante mucho tiempo.
En esta primera parte, recogemos parte de sus primeras grabaciones que recogen desde su debut en un disco de estudio «oficial» con los Dreams, en el año 1970, hasta su colaboración de 1975 junto al trompetista italiano Enrico Rava, esa maravilla titulada The Pilgrim and the Stars.

En este episodio de La Montaña Rusa nuestro clásico de la semana fue este mítico directo de la Billy Cobham Band en el Festival de Jazz de Montreux en 1975. Increíble banda con un directo absolutamente delirante.
El último trabajo del saxofonista Toni Solà, the Heart of Jazz, publicado el año pasado, 2015, fue galardonado la semana pasada como el mejor álbum de jazz del 2015 por la publicación musical Enderrock. Desde LMR nos queremos hacer eco de la noticia y felicitar al saxofonista por este premio. El disco es excelente.
Hace bien poco que se ha publicado el primer trabajo como líder del contrabajista Mark Wade. Él mismo nos ha hecho llegar éste Event Horizon, excelente jazz contemporáneo en formato de trío.
Y como no, teníamos que recordar el último trabajo del dios Mehldau, ese 10 Years Solo Live, publicado en octubre del 2015 que recoge 10 años de piano solo en directo. Sublime grabación para oír a uno de los grandes del jazz contemporáneo.
Y cerramos con nuestro clásico de la semana, esta mítica grabación de la Billy Cobham Band en directo en el Festival de Jazz de Montreux en el año 1975.
A jugar!!
