JazzWax by Marc Myers
Like many of you, I love the glitter and shimmer of 1961 New York in Breakfast at Tiffany's. But I must confess I've never cared much for Moon River, the movie's official theme.

His debut album, Breakfast of Champions, highlights adventurous improvisation and the remarkable synergy of a young group. Recorded live to two-track one wintry ...

Nonetheless, the PAUSA long-playing vinyl album released in 1985 is a highlight not only of Shew's recording career but also of all jazz releases in the last two decades of the twentieth century. I lost my copy of Breakfast Wine in a move, so when I was rummaging through the used LP bin in a Seattle store the ...

Since taking over as host in 2002, Chris Carter has broadened the show's perspective to include performances from radio and TV broadcasts, bootlegs and solo music by former Beatles. “The role of the host is not to have his jollies," Carter says. “It's the people's show."
