Bill Carrothers: I Love Paris
by John Kelman
One great thing about jazz is that an artist is more likely to be measured by his or her career arc, rather than the success or failure of a single release.

As we approach the hundredth anniversary of the start of “the war to end all wars," international conflict blights the planet like never before, and unilateral might-is-right aggression is increasingly replacing diplomacy and consensus. Bad karma rules and history sometimes seems, like the poet said, to be “one fucking thing after another." So Bill ...

Bill Carrothers: Content in his Corner of the Jazz World
by R.J. DeLuke
