David Gibson: A Little Somethin'
by Woodrow Wilkins
To read or listen to some of the commentary about jazz and hear that this genre of music is dying; to read with cynicism that artists are either playing music that is 50 years old or they are playing something so “catchy" and “mainstream," that it is a “stretch of the imagination" to even call it ...
