But he deserved more. He was an original who worked in an inspired--if somewhat quirky--journeyman fashion until he bloomed in his late ...

Teddy Pantelas Trio: Shadow Warrior
by Mark Corroto
There is no denying the importance of place when it comes to a jazz musician's sound. Louis Armstrong will forever be tied to New Orleans, and Sonny Rollins to New York.
