Featuring Satoko Fujii on piano, Joe Fonda on contrabass & flute and Gianni Mimmo on soprano sax. Both pianist Satoko Fujii and bassist Joe Fonda should be no strangers to most of you serious listeners. On the other hand, Italian soprano saxist Gianni Mimmo, might be a bit more obscure. He shouldn’t be to those […]

Midwest Records parla di TRIAD
As Satoko Fujii continues her birthday record release marathon, here we find her trying on yet a new skin debuting this trio in this format. Recorded on her actual birthday, they day after they played together for the first time, this is art jazz going to logical extremes giving you the other side of early […]
The Rehearsal Studio parla di TRIAD
As might be guessed, Triad is a trio album. Fujii is joined by Gianni Mimmo on soprano saxophone and Joe Fonda, who divides his efforts between flute and bass. This is the album that comes closest to an explicit acknowledgement of the entire project. Almost all of the CD is occupied by the second track, […]
Jazz Weekly parla di TRIAD
Sonic Jackson Pollocks hit the canvas of your ears… Fujii teams with Joe Fonda/b-fl and Gianni Mimmo/ss on four originals that give images of space explorations. Piano strings strum along atmospheric flute on “Available Gravity” with bowed bass and abstract ivories create a ionic distribution on ”Birthday Girl.” Lurking piano notes scurry during ”Joe Melts […]

BUSCADERO parla di Trouble No More… All Men Are Brothers
***1/2 Se ancora non lo aveste capito dal titolo, vi riporto la scritta in esergo sul CD: ” A Tribute To The Spiritual Unity Of The Allman Brothers Band”. Ebbene direte voi? Non sarà certo la prima volta che si fa un tributo ai nostri amati Allman Brothers! Vero anche questo; però questa volta si […]
DOWNBEAT parla di Trouble No More… All Men Are Brothers
4 STARS **** Tribute albums can be tricky. The key is to give greater priority to spirit than to style. Of course, the Allman Brothers created a unique style before guitarist Duane Allman’s death just weeks before his 25th birthday. To deny that, or to step so far away from it that the tribute being […]
