Stefon Harris / David Sanchez / Christian Scott: Ninety Miles
by Ian Patterson
On paper, Ninety Miles was a tantalizing project from the beginning; bringing together three of the most exciting voices in modern jazz--Puerto Rican-born tenor saxophonist David Sanchez, New Orleans trumpeter Christian Scott, and New York vibraphonist Stefon Harris-- and transport them to Havana to play with two outstanding, piano-led Cuban jazz quartets.

Poncho Sanchez: Do It!
by Joel Roberts
Poncho Sanchez is the Energizer Bunny, or maybe the Cal Ripken Jr., of Latin jazz.

His latest, Do It!, doesn't mess with the formula that's made ...
