Read "Buddy DrFranco and Oscar Peterson Play George Gershwin" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


And Strings Redux. A number of jazz reissues using strings have been finding their way beneath my laser. I reviewed Chet Baker and Strings last month in these virtual pages ( AJJ, September, 1998, Issue #11).
