Gabriel Latchin Trio: I'll Be Home For Christmas
by Peter J. Hoetjes
In 2020, when a respected musician decides to record a Christmas album, they invite perhaps the most basic question of all.

Mike Melito/Dino Losito Quartet: You're It!
by Jack Bowers
The album cover says “Mike Melito / Dino Losito Quartet." What it does not say is that drummer Melito and pianist Losito have at their beck-and-call an awesome secret weapon, Philadelphia-based tenor saxophonist Larry McKenna, a phenom from the Lester Young school of elegant swinging whose voice on the horn is as debonair and persuasive as ...
