A selection of new and not so new this week:

New releases feature: Dave Douglas with his new album shining a light on the legacy of the legendary Dizzy Gillespie.

Nicholas Krolak a great sophomore album from the Philadelphia-based bassist. Krolak is a young veteran of the Philadelphia jazz scene. He has spent the last decade working as a side-man, experiencing new styles, and studying with the masters. Now, he has taken all he has learned and is applying it to his own group.

Paul Flaherty, Max Ridgway , Cheryl Pyle , Randall Colbourne , James Chumley Hunt, and Mike Roberson with live freeform jazz from a quartet of great players working together for the first time

Giovanni Guidi, Enrico Rava, Matthew Herbert Big Band a remarkable blend of jazz, sampling and electronica creating an entirely new listening experience.
