L'ultimo hipster. La vita e la musica di Mark Murphy
by Angelo Leonardi
Non trovate accenni a Mark Murphy nelle più recenti storie del jazz, neanche il nome.

Ralph Towner: un americano a Roma
by Mario Calvitti
Ralph Towner rappresenta sicuramente una figura atipica nel vasto mondo della chitarra jazz. In primo luogo per gli strumenti usati: la chitarra classica, che negli anni '60 in ambito jazzistico era utilizzata solamente da musicisti legati alla musica brasiliana come Charlie Byrd, Laurindo Almeida e Bola Sete, e la chitarra 12-corde, che proveniva dal mondo folk ...
