Photography started with the purchase of a secondhand (used, preowned) 35mm Ilford Sportsman camera at £6 ($9) (one week's wages then). Three shutter speeds, no metering, guesswork focusing. The next purchase was £12 ($18) on a ...

Tommaso Starace Quartet: Blood & Champagne

Read "Blood & Champagne" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay

by Bruce Lindsay

Somewhere in a parallel universe far, far away Tommaso Starace is fêted as one of the finest saxophonists in contemporary jazz.
