–Records that didn’t make my 2005 end-of-year list and probably should have:
Bill Frisell, East/West (Nonesuch)
Vijay Iyer, Reimagining (Savoy Jazz)
Miguel Zenon, Jibaro (Marsalis Music)
John O’Gallagher, Line of Sight (Fresh Sound New Talent)
–Four new albums that make use of strings in bristling, avant-garde ways:
Assif Tsahar, Solitude (Hopscotch Records)
David Murray, Waltz Again (Justin Time)
Michel Lambert, Le Passant (rant)
Taylor Ho Bynum, Other Stories (482 Music)
–One album I was crazy not to plug aggressively in 2004:
Steve Swallow/Ohad Talmor Sextet, L’histoire du Clochard (Palmetto Records)
