EHUD ASHERIE with Harry Allen/Upper West Side: When you can’t tell just who is the leader on this duo date why is that Allen gets kind of a minority billing? And just why has this sweetie of a date been sitting in the can for 3 years? Screw the weak economy! A sublime face off between two jazz cats at the top of their games on piano and sax, the set list focuses on oldies b ...Read More
A nice write-up for Ehud Asherie “Modern Life”…

Ehud Asherie is one of a handful of brilliant young artists on the vibrant New York scene that simply does not get the recognition he deserves. Asherie has paired with tenor giant Harry Allen on more than one occasion and the results are consistently stunning. Modern Life is the straight ahead Back To The Future Of Jazz. While Asherie does contribute two stellar original c ...Read More

There are but a handful of truly gifted artists that posses the ability to split time between piano and organ without either skill taking a back seat or suffering some sort of sonic breakdown. Fats Waller, Larry Goldings and Sam Yahel are but a taste of the talent that does not draw a line between the two instruments and Ehud Asherie can now be placed along side these masters ...Read More

Upper West Side is as fine a duet album as has been made by a pianist with another instrumentalist. This declaration may very possibly include the albums made by Hank Jones with Tommy Flanagan and Oscar Peterson with Dizzy Gillespie. It is a credit to pianist Ehud Asherie that he made this album at such a young age in comparison to the masters who have been mentioned ...Read More

Ehud Asherie and Harry Allen’s Magical Upper West Side
What does the thought of New York’s Upper West Side conjure up for you? Homeless Iraq war vets panhandling at the subway station at 72nd and Broadway? Cops frisking teens for contraband twenty blocks north in order to meet the quotas of cheap arrests arbitrarily imposed by NYPD brass? Brand-new multimillion-doll ...Read More
