by John Chacona
Is it possible that we underestimate Esperanza Spalding?

Bobby Cole: A Point of View
by Randy Poe
Frank Sinatra walks into a bar... ...Specifically, he walks into Jilly's, on 52nd Street between Broadway and 8th Avenue. Actually, Jilly's was more of a piano bar/restaurant. Sinatra chose to call it a “bistro." It was right there inside the matchbooks scattered all around the joint—back when people still ate and smoked at the same time—in ...

Paul Marinaro: Not Quite Yet
by Richard J Salvucci
The cover of the album is vaguely noir, with the urban greenish cast of tungsten film. A sole figure leans slightly against a building, downcast, staring into his soul, and waiting out a lit cigarette when it was still hip to smoke. The guy is Frank Sinatra and the album was In The Wee Small Hours. ...

What A Little Moonlight Can Do
by Dan McClenaghan
The birthday bash for my granddaughter Marisol went down at my son's house, on the other side of town. And since her other abuelo was on the patio cooking chicken taquitos in a makeshift deep fryer, I'd offered to buy the pizzas. I phoned in the order: five pepperonis, extra cheese all around. They wouldn't take ...
