Though many of us are balking at Google's ongoing drive to connect products, such as the widely attacked, integration of Google+ comments on YouTube, sometimes those connections open up great new possibilities. In this case, Google's connecting their Photo Sphere tech for 360 degree photo creations and Google Maps' Street View to allow you to create tours with some interesting marketing possibilities. I haven't worked with photo spheres or placed photos on Google Maps but I have checked out Street ...

Julian Priester and Aaron Alexander Put It Together on Duo Disk "Conversational Music"

Gapplegate Music Review by Grego Edwards
First things first. If you do not know who Julian Priester is (and I of course assume that most readers are very familiar with him) you have missed a very important part of what makes the trombone a central instrument in jazz today. From Max Roach's and Sun Ra's bands in the fifties, Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi in the early '70s, and through to today, he has been a major stylist. The good news is that he sounds great today, especially ...

Quintus McCormick - Put It on Me! (2011)
Source:
Something Else!
Quintus McCormick doesn't quibble with genre on this new project from Delmark Records. Instead, he sings with a remarkable facility, at once bright and sweet then hard and accusatory, sounding at times like some after-midnight deep bluesman and then like a spit-shined mainstream soulster—and moving, along the way, well outside of any neat modern-day pre-packaging. Put It On Me! illustrates, definitively, that he can look, and this is such a rarity, both forward and back. And so, we have McCormick ...

Gapplegate Music Review by Grego Edwards
With Nate Wooley, and with his latest quintet album (Put Your) Hands Together (Clean Feed CF218CD), there is plenty to suggest that growth is a factor. Nate as an artist, trumpet-composer-bandleader, does not stand still. It's a very balanced album with a band that provides the freewheeling solo work you would expect from Nate's outfit, yet also has developed an ensemble sound, thanks in part to Nate's compositions-arrangements, but also thanks to the sensibilities of the players involved. Some of ...
