NONzine reviewer continues to amaze with impressive writing, fine taste

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: That music "critic" over at NONzine really seems to have his stuff together. Here's yet another solid pair of album reviews from the guy. This time, he holds forth on the latest release from the jazz saxophonist John Ellis (left), who is, without a doubt, one of the more exciting young artists in the genre today. He also spins the most recent album from Detroit soul legend Nathaniel Mayer (who, I've learned, has fortunately made it through some recent health scares). Hope you enjoy as much as we did... And yes, the music's good, too!

Our Philosophy:

The music press, both mainstream and independent, focus the bulk of their attention on "new music" -- the latest albums and hot new artists. But what if "new music" meant something else? What if it referred to music that, regardless of when it was originally released -- this week or 50 years ago -- was just now being discovered by an individual, or perhaps by a generation? Any music could be "new." This Web publication charts our travels along the road of discovery as we become aware and gain a greater appreciation of some of the best music ever recorded from genres including rock 'n' roll, jazz, folk, soul, funk and, perhaps most importantly of all, the blues.
