Jack Bowers' Best Jazz Albums Of 2024

by Jack Bowers
December 12, 2024

The Jazz Professors: Blues and Cubes

Read "Blues and Cubes" reviewed by Jack Bowers

by Jack Bowers
July 31, 2022

Yes, the Florida-based Jazz Professors, as befits the name, are smart—but don't let that throw you. They also swing in the best jazz tradition, even though their fourth album, Blues and Cubes, was inspired by the art of Pablo Picasso.
