John Scofield - This Meets That
Emarcy / Universal Music Group
Release date: September 18th, 2007
A new John Scofield album always brings thoughts of: what next? The excellent "Saudades" was a homage to Tony Williams'"Lifetime" while the equally challenging "Out Louder" continued the trance jazz collaboration with Medeski, Martin and Wood".
The new album, "This Meets That" is altogether more mellow, more reflective.

Tom Harrell - Light On
High Note
Release date: June 26th 2007
It is good to have Tom Harrell back after a four year break as leader with this album which presents nine original compositions.
"Light On" adds to the remarkable run of fine jazz started in 1988 with "Stories" and continued up to 1991 with the beautiful albums "Form", "Visions" and "Passages". In a very clear sense "Light On" returns to the clarity
