2013/05/16 After some delays and including a couple more reviews than would originally have been scheduled, here's a bevy of reviews - four gig reviews, two illustrated by Rainlore's World Artist in Residence Alban Low, and two illustrated guest reviews by him, a solitary album review (I know, we're getting further behind again with albums at the moment but hope to catch up a good bit soon) and an article. The article, and album will be relevant here, and of course two og the gig reviews. So here we go, in the usual alphabetical order. The solitary album review is Farthest South's Omens & Talismans, a spectacular adventure in free improv/experimental music featuring Israeli free jazz giant, saxophonist Albert Beger, and guitar ace Yair Yona (on bass), plus more. A fascinating journey and exploration of free improvisation combined with effects and electronica, this is stunning! Next it's the excellent Georgia Mancio Live At Twickenham Jazz Club, The Bloomsbury, Twickenham TW2, Thursday 25th April 2013 (Illustrated Guest Review by Alban Low) - who would not wish to have been there? A very intimate gig, with just voice, guitar and bass, totally exposed. Mr. Low gets stuck in! A dream of a gig was of course the Jan Ponsford Quartet Reunion Live At Jan's Bar, Stoke Newington, London N16, Sunday 21st April 2013 (Illustrated by Alban Low) - ultimate class from the one and only Jan Ponsford and her fabulous quartet. How much better could things possibly get. Voice, piano (or accordion), bass, drums... and trumpet? Plus an outstanding guest saxophonist, to round things off. Magic! The article, The Reviewer & The Reviewed examines the roles of both. This had been held over from previous updates to fine-tune it. It's funny how there's just the odd exception that does not seem to grasp the fundamental 'rules of engagement!' Please be aware that there may be delays to forthcoming updates due to the current - generously donated - stop-gap laptop computer being very near breathing its last and hence a (tower) replacement or parts having to be found urgently, which may occupy a good bit of time. Most regrettably I have to severely curtail gig and other live event reviews from now on due to severely constrained finances and in the absence of substantial donations to the site or sponsorship. I shall of course honour most events I have already committed to until August this year. However, beyond that, things are highly uncertain at the moment, and unless there is a positive change in circumstances, I shall not be able to attend more than one event per month at best. Expenses such as fares are simply too much to bear out of my own limited pocket. Hence, an appeal for donations will be re-launched shortly, as soon as mechanisms for anonymous donations via PayPal have been put in place. In other news, the Maciek Pysz Trio are launching their new album Insight at The Forge in Camden Town, London NW1, on Wednesday 22nd May 2013! In addition to guitarist Pysz himself, the trio features Asaf Sirkis on drums and Yuri Goloubev on double bass. Get your tickets here quickly! Further tour details at Pysz's web site. Even closer is this Sunday's (19th May) Jan Ponsford Quartet Reunion at Jan's Bar, 18 Northwold Road, Stoke Newington, London N16 7HR, phone 0207 812 9862. Don't miss this unique opportinity to see the UK's premier jazz singer with an all-star line-up - pianist Frances Knight, bassist Terry Pack and drummer Winston Clifford plus special guest Annie Whitehead on 'bone! Admission: £5/£4. More at Ms. Ponsford's web site. This is now a regular residency, on the third Sunday of the month!

2013/04/19 Just one album reviewed this time, but it's straight out of heaven. However, another item or two had to be still withheld due to last minute further editing being required and insufficient time being available. It's Maurizio Minardi's The Cook The Clown The Monk And The Accordionist, the piano and accordion maestro's ninth studio album. His accordion dominates here, and Minardi delivers another drop-dead-gorgeous album. Cinematic in character and scale, with a cast of thousands... err, two trio configurations plus cellist Shirley Smart guesting on a few tracks. This album is almost the perfect counterfoil to the previous My Piano Trio. Among other news, the long overdue Rainlore's World Albums Of The Year 2012 will of course follow ASAP but maybe a while yet. However, the good news is that the winners will henceforth receive a commemorative plaque, and Rainlore's World is proud to announce that the Rainlore's World Albums Of The Year 2012 will be sponsored by the prestigious Sampson Low Ltd., one of the UK's oldest publishing houses! Most regrettably I have to severely curtail gig and other live event reviews from now on due to severely constrained finances and in the absence of substantial donations to the site or sponsorship. I shall of course honour most events I have already committed to until August this year. However, beyond that, things are highly uncertain at the moment, and unless there is a positive change in circumstances, I shall not be able to attend more than one event per month at best. Expenses such as fares are simply too much to bear out of my own limited pocket. Jan Ponsford's Reunion with her Jan Ponsford Quartet takes place this Sunday 21st April, 7.00 - 9.30pm at Jan's Bar, 18 Northwold Road, Stoke Newington, London N16 7HR, phone 0207 812 9862. Don't miss this unique opportinity to see the UK's premier jazz singer with an all-star league - pianist Frances Knight, bassist Terry Pack and drummer Winston Clifford plus special guests! Admission: £5/£4 - FREE for 1st 4 at the door! The Maciek Pysz Trio will be launching their new album Insight at The Forge in Camden Town on 22nd May 2013. Tickets on sale now. Book here.

2013/04/05 Just a single gig review this time. This is Michael Janisch - The Whirlwind Sessions Live At Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho, London W1, Friday 8th March 2013, an illustrated guest review by Rainlore's World Artist in Residence Alban Low. Bassist and improviser extraordinaire, and head of Whirlwind Records Janisch's late night Whirlwind session will run right through to November, with a Whirlwind Festival also slated for August at The King's Place. These sessions are bound to be exciting, so make Friday nights at the Pizza your late night home from home! The first set is a quartet or quintet led by a Whirlwind artist, the second a jam. The one reviewed was led by Janisch himself, with Phil Robson, Gene Calderazzo, Duncan Eagles and Zhenya Strigalev! Singer-songwriter-guitarist extraordinaire Sarah Gillespie has received the first run of her new (third) album, Glory Days! This is currently available on pre-release exclusively from Ms. Gillespie's web site. Official release is slated for June. Also check the site for her very busy touring schedule! In other news, the long overdue Rainlore's World Albums Of The Year 2012 will of course follow ASAP but maybe a while yet. However, the good news is that the winners will henceforth receive a commemorative plaque, and Rainlore's World is proud to announce that the Rainlore's World Albums Of The Year 2012 will be sponsored by the prestigious Sampson Low Ltd., one of the UK's oldest publishing houses! Most regrettably I shall have to severely curtail gig and other live event reviews from now on due to severely constrained finances and in the absence of substantial donations to the site or sponsorship.

2013/03/27 Much delayed, alas, but you will surely find this update was worth waiting for! In part, this delay was caused by holding out for including the illustrated review of the sensational Nicolas Meier gig. As a consequence, one or two other items regrettably had to be held over to the next update. A bit of a mixed bag, in strict alphabetical order as usual. A CD review takes the shape of the Aleph Trio's self-titled Aleph Trio (EP). Almost an album, and more than worth investigating! More than generous for an EP, this is as satisfying as any album. A class act, too. The first of two gigs reviewed, Nicolas Meier - Album Launch 'From Istanbul To Ceuta With A Smile' At Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho, London W1, Tuesday 19th March 2013 (Illustrated by Alban Low), was a sensation. Although missing Gilad Atzmon and Bernard Gregor-Smith from the album line-up, it lived up to its promise of being a most exciting event. A feature, Jan Ponsford On A Gig At The Klinker Club At The Olive, Stoke Newington High Street, London N16, Tuesday 5th February 2013, And On Free Improv, has the renowned jazz singer extraordinaire talking in her own words and makes for fascinating reading. Expect to hear a whole lot more from/about Jan Ponsford, who has returned to these shores to resume her career here, to our great fortune. Finally, the second gig reviewed is The Twelveheads At The Amersham Arms, New Cross, London, Tuesday 5th March 2013, an illustrated Guest Review by Rainlore's World Artist in Residence Alban Low. Sparkling with wit and humour, you cannot miss out on this. As for Peter Ibbetson's Twelveheads, you may know them better under their previous name of Pseudonym. In other news, the long overdue Rainlore's World Albums Of The Year 2012 will of course follow ASAP but maybe a while yet. However, the good news is that the winners will henceforth receive a commemorative plaque, and Rainlore's World is proud to announce that the Rainlore's World Albums Of The Year 2012 will be sponsored by the prestigious Sampson Low Ltd., one of the UK's oldest publishing houses! Most regrettably I shall have to severely curtail gig and other live event reviews from now on due to severely constrained finances and in the absence of substantial donations to the site or sponsorship. I shall of course honour any events I have already committed to until August this year. However, beyond that, things are highly uncertain at the moment, and unless there is a positive change in circumstances, I shall not be able to attend more than one event per month at best. Expenses such as fares are simply too much to bear out of my own limited pocket.

2013/03/10 The best laid plans...! Still, a real stonker with nothing less than three reviews of gigs illustratated by Rainlore's World Artist in Residence Alban Low (and two also written by him as I couldn't attend myself) In strict alphabetical order then as usual. Any Gilad Atzmon gig is always something special. Gilad Atzmon & The Orient House Ensemble - 'Songs Of The Metropolis' Album Launch At Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho, London W1, Saturday 23rd February 2013 obviously was going to be extra special from the start. It is illustrated by Rainlore's World Artist in Residence Alban Low. What more could anyone ask? Fantastic musical performances? Take them for granted with Atzmon & Co.! Gig of the year so far. The album was reviewed here last time. Sadly, Chico Chica Live At The Green Carnation, Soho, London W1, Tuesday 19th February 2013 was one of two gigs in February that I could not make myself. However, we have an Illustrated Guest Review by Alban Low, first published on his Art Of Jazz blog on 22nd February. I really liked their album Melangerie last year - so what did Alban think of the gig? And finally, Joanna Strand & Friends - Delirium Live At Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho, London W1, Thursday 7th February 2013, was another gig that alas I was unable to attend myself, but again we have a fabulous Illustrated Guest Review by Alban Low, originally published on his Art Of Jazz blog on 9th February. Last year, Joanna Strand's album launch of Fly Transatlantic was the first gig Alban and I collaborated on. This was a completely different kettle of fish. See what Alban made of it. In other news, most regrettably I shall have to severely curtail gig and other live event reviews from now on due to severely constrained finances and in the absence of substantial donations to the site or sponsorship. I shall of course honour any events I have already committed to until August this year. However, beyond that, things are highly uncertain at the moment, and unless there is a positive change in circumstances, I shall not be able to attend more than one event per month at best. Expenses such as fares are simply too much to bear out of my own pocket. More news on the Rainlore's World Albums of the Year 2012 had to be postponed till next time. Sorry. On Thursday 14th March, Maurizio Minardi will be launching his new album The Cook, the Clown, the Monk and the Accordionist with Shirley Smart (cello), Nick Pini (double bass), Jason Reeve (drums), and Marco Quarantotto (drums), at Pizza Express Jazz Club, 10 Dean St, London W1D 3RW, from 8pm. See Minardi's Facebook page for a special discount ticket offer! Michael Janisch &
Whirlwind Recordings are very excited to announce two major developments at Whirlwind Recordings. The first is Michael Janisch's
Jazz for Babies, a series of CDs to introduce babies to jazz! According to Janisch, 'Our first five albums feature a themed lead instrument (Grand Piano, Trumpet, Vibraphone, Guitar, Saxophone) performing 15 classic songs adapted into Calm & Soothing Lullabies for both parent and baby to enjoy. Performed by world class jazz musicians on real instruments, each track also features a splash of melodic improvisation making our baby music completely unique. No more dreaded music box or computerized baby music albums with poorly produced synthetic sounds! Our goal is making albums of pristine sound quality featuring truly creative music that is sophisticated enough for parents to enjoy but is calm and soothing enough for a recital in the womb, to soothe a fretful infant or send a restless toddler off to sleep. The second new development is The Whirlwind Sessions... 'London's Premier Jam Session and Late Night Friday Hang. Every Friday (Starting Friday the 8th!) from 11:30 pm - 3 am at The Pizza Express Jazz Club. FREE ENTRANCE! 10 Dean St, London W1D 3RW Phone: 020 7437 9595. Further, Nicolas Meier will launch his album From Istanbul To Ceuta With A Smile at Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho on Tuesday 19th March! Not to be missed! This will be the start of a tour to promote the album. The album features Meier's biggest band so far with all exceptional musicians including:

2013/02/28 Just one album review that should be of great interest here this time, and some major archiving of inactive pages. The album reviewed comes from the amazing Kobi Arad Band and Inner Hymns - Creative Exploration of Traditional Jewish Hymns. Very esoteric, highly creative 'Third Stream' from the modern master. And very deft ivory work from Arad too, as usual. You can catch him live if you're on the US East Coast, particularly the NYC area. The 'A/V Pages' section of Rainlore's World has now been permanently moved to archive. It had long become impossible to maintain/update this. Please note that some of the links may no longer work. The 'Artists' section will be next to be archived as soon as time permits, for the same reason. The next update may take a little time as it's going to be a real biggie! In every sense of the word. Not one, not two, but three gig reviews illustrated by Rainlore's World Artist in Residence Alban Low, and two of them also written by him! The other one's a real biggie in itself. Then, we have a literary review on the topic of art. And of course one or two albums as well. And there's more exciting news on the Rainlore's World Albums Of The Year 2012 next time, too! No, sadly they're not coming along just yet. But exciting news, all the same.

2013/02/17 At last, Pt. 2 of last week's site update! Two more album reviews, and an art exhibition review. Overdue due to a mix up and receiving the review CD late is the first album, Gilad Atzmon & The Orient House Ensemble's Songs Of The Metropolis. A phenomenal album from a phenomenal maestro and a phenomenal band! All heart, romance and beauty! This is Atzmon venturing out of his comfort zone. Well, this is Atzmon, what do you expect! Stunning! Equally stunning is how much this album shares in common with Mark Weinstein's Todo Corazon - The Tango Album, reviewed in Pt. 1 of this update last week. Find out what these albums have in common in the review. Long overdue due to 'congestion' here is the second album, Salim Ghazi Saeedi's namoWoman. An extraordinary album from Iran, this comes broadly from the sphere of prog rock / avant rock / prog metal, with a twist. It should also be of interest to fusion aficionados, which is why it is included here. The art exhibition review comes in the form of Rainlore's World's Artist in Residence's Alban Low - Art Of Folk Exhibition At TwickFolk, The Cabbage Patch, Twickenham, Middx. TW1, Sunday 27th January 2013. Or, to give it its full title, Art of Folk At TwickFolk Twickenham. This comes fully illustrated with nineteen of the twenty glorious images in the show. And moreover, there's a special offer for readers of the review, so you can now own a print by Alban Low at a special price! Of particular interest here of course as Low's specialty is normally jazz musicians. In other news, Asaf Sirkis has a new set of pictures of the Asaf Sirkis Trio by Matt Crossick on display on Facebook. Of course, also slightly overdue by now are Rainlore's World's Albums Of The Year 2012. There is so much to do, this is inevitable, and they will follow ASAP. However, regrettably this maybe while yet...

2013/02/10 Somewhat delayed due to various 'interludes' of exhaustion, man flu and the like, this site update also had to be split into two parts. Today, here is Pt. 1. Pt. 2 will follow, hopefully, around next Friday. Regrettably, this causes further delays to a number of album and gig reviews long overdue. The current crop of reviews in Pt. 1 in this section consists of two album reviews. As usual, in strict alphabetical order... The first album review comes from Horizen and their debut Big Bang. They are a wonderful four-piece band led by guitarist Tom Williams intent on making a big bang on the jazz fusion scene! They're certainly going about it the right way with this very polished album. Even if you're not a fan of prog rock oriented fusion, this album will surely grow on you! The second album review is of Mark Weinstein's Todo Corazon - The Tango Album - a phenomenal album indeed! The master jazz flautist ventures completely out of his comfort zone and pulls it off. An album all heart, romance and beauty! Stunning! Equally stunning is how much it shares in common with another album released just a few short weeks earlier - find out what this is, and which album it is, in the review. The review of the 'other album' regrettably had to be moved to Pt. 2 of this update. On the other news front, outstanding jazz singer extraordinaire Jan Ponsford, accompanied by Frances Knight on bandoneón, was part of an exciting, mostly free improv, gig last Tuesday, 5th February at a packed out Klinker Club at The Olive, Stoke Newington High Street, London N16. We'll bring you a short summary in Ms. Ponsford's own write shortly. Also, news soon of a Jan Ponsford Quartet 'party gig' (duffle coats, roll necks and thick rimmed glasses a requirement for admission!) and an article or two on free improv with the irrepressible Ms. Ponsford! World class drummer/percussionist extraordinaire Asaf Sirkis is busy mixing the new album of his Asaf Sirkis Trio, when he isn't busy gigging, recording or teaching! It's due for release this summer, with a launch gig at the Pizza Express Jazz Club, Soho, on 17th July. You can't book yet, but note it in your diary and then book early once booking opens in April. This is bound to be a real cracker of a gig, and to sell out! The gig will feature the original line-up of Tassos Spiliotopoulos on guitar, Yaron Stavi on bass guitar, and of course Sirkis himself at the traps! Guitar ace supreme Nicolas Meier is very pleased to announce the launch of his new album From Istanbul to Ceuta with a Smile. He will launch the album at Pizza Express Dean Street in London on 19th March 2013. So book your tickets for an exciting show! The album is now out on MGP Records and was reviewed here recently. Force of nature jazz giant and 'maverick' Gilad Atzmon's new album with his Orient House Ensemble, Songs Of The Metropolis, looks set to become their most successful and best selling album yet! The tour dates are selling out fast, including the five-gig launch residency at the Pizza Express Jazz Club, Soho from 21st - 23rd February! (Thursday 21st is apparently already sold out!) For booking the Pizza Express gigs phone 020 7437 9595, or book online. The album will be reviewed in Pt. 2 of this site update around the end of this week, as it was sadly delayed in reaching me due to a mix up. Phenomenal singer-songwriter Sarah Gillespie has nearly finished mixing and mastering her new, third Atzmon-produced album Glory Days. In January she was also busy in the studio recording a track with legendary Blockheads bassist Norman Watt-Roy that Gillespie had written with him and Atzmon for Watt-Roy's new solo album due out this spring. The super-cool Chico Chica, one of the finest bands to just chill by with their (mainly original) bossas and other mainly Latin grooves, are at the Green Carnation, 4 Greek Street, Soho, London W1D 4DD, on Tuesdays 12th, 19th and 26th February. 8.30pm start. Admission is free! Do try and catch them if you possibly can! And watch out for them in the future - I'd be very surprised if they didn't really go places! In fact, I rate them so highly that I persuaded Rainlore's World Artist in Residence Alban Low to go along and do an illustrated review by himself as sadly I can't make it myself!

2013/01/21 Out with the old, in with the new! The 2012 version of this page has now been archived. At the same time, the change in name to Rainlore's World is being further implemented, bit by bit! Rainlore's World is proud to announce that acclaimed fine artist Alban Low has kindly consented to be Artist in Residence of Rainlore's World as of this month. Alban Low is renowned especially for his covers and artwork for CDs, live illustrations of gigs and studio sessions (with a primary focus on jazz - see also his blog Art of Jazz), and animations, including commissions for the BBC, and in 2012 already illustrated several gigs in collaboration with reviews on Rainlore's World. We hope our collaboration will be a long and fruitful one. Some sections will be discontinued and permanently moved to archive shortly as it has regrettably become impossible to maintain them. These include the 'A/V Page' and the 'Artists' page. More on this soon. On with the single review this time! Nicolas Meier's From Istanbul To Ceuta With A Smile proves yet again that any new Meier album is always worth waiting for! There are surprises galore in store. Meier has evolved in a giant leap. Don't expect another Journey - this is a very different journey, a different trip. The jazz is much more to the fore here, as is Meier himself, very decidedly leading from the front. In other news, the Asaf Sirkis Trio's launch gig for their forthcoming album has been confirmed as 17th July at the Pizza Express Jazz Club, Soho - tix go on sale April, so note in your diary and book then! Kudos for securing this prestigious venue to Sirkis and management. It's about time we saw Sirkis here with his own trio. The original line-up of Tassos Spiliotopoulos, guitar, and Yaron Stavi, bass guitar, has also been confirmed. The new album should see mixing soon now. A lot closer is Rainlore's World's Artist in Residence Alban Low's one-day exhibition, Art of Folk, at TwickFolk, Twickenham, this Sunday, 27th January, arising from his six month residency at the well known folk club. It's from 6pm at Twickfolk, The Cabbage Patch, 67 London Rd., Twickenham TW1 3SZ. Admission is free, and music is provided by Alan Franks from 7pm to put you even more in the mood! An event not to be missed! Twickenham train station is a couple of minutes walk and on the Waterloo to Kingston-upon-Thames line. In the meantime, you can find out more about his amazing work and download a catalogue of posters and prints at Alban Low's web site. Meanwhile, Gilad Atzmon & The Orient House Ensemble's tour in support of their new album, Songs Of The Metropolis, is in full swing - see Atzmon's web site for dates. After the tour ends in March, an international tour will follow in April and May. You can also see an excellent short film by Tali Atzmon, Songs Of The Metropolis, on YouTube. Sarah Gillespie has also been busy recording a new album with Enzo Zirilli - drums, Ben Bastin - bass & Kit Downes - piano, and also featuring and produced by Gilad Atzmon. Gillespie is also touring, with old and new material, in a variety of line-ups (see web site for details), some of the dates ahead being: This Wednesday, 23rd January, you can catch the Maurizio Minardi Quartet with Michele Montolli on double bass, Jason Reeve on drums, Minardi on accordion, and Shirley Smart on cello as a special guest, at Cafe in The Crypt, St Martin in the Fields, Trafalgar Square, London WC2N 4JJ from 8pm. Minardi will be releasing his 9th studio album this March, material from which he will introduce at Cafe in The Crypt. Get your tickets here.

2013/01/02 Hello New Year, and Hello Rainlore's World, Good Bye Rainlore's World of Music! The process of changing over of the site's name to Rainlore's World has begun with a change of the logos on all essential section pages, e.g., 'Home,' Jazz,' 'Other World Music,' 'Literary,' and so on. More will follow gradually. Also, more and more pages will have headers and other incidences of the old Rainlore's World of Music changed to Rainlore's World. This change of the site's name is intended to reflect the much broader spectrum the site has come to include over the years. Over the next year or two, a thorough revamp of the site is hoped to be carried out to take this into account and to simplify the site and make it more user-friendly too. For the time being, the domain will remain the same. Comments and suggestions always welcome. Furthermore, with the next full site update, the 2012 portion of this page and all other section pages will be moved to archive, hence the next update may be a little longer than usual. Wishing everyone a Happy 2013
