Tula's Jazz Club: Soliloquy to a Seattle Jazz Institution
by Paul Rauch
It was the tail end of a long weekend. Temperatures had risen to 80 degrees under a sunny only-in-Seattle blue sky, the waterways and markets humming with a sea of humanity. It was not a night one would expect many to venture into the quiet, dark solitude of Tula's Jazz Club, where for nearly 26 years ...

Various Artists: Innerpeace: Rare Spiritual Funk And Jazz Gems
by Chris May
It took a few years for producer Bob Shad's newly formed Mainstream Records to nail its direction in the 1960s.

A better move, given hindsight, was releasing the debut album by Janis Joplin's Big Brother & The Holding Company. ...

Freddie Hubbard: At Onkel Pӧ's Carnegie Hall
by Stefano Merighi
Se si dovesse per gioco indicare un trombettista della storia del jazz che sintetizzasse tecnica strumentale, flessibilità espressiva, capacità mimetiche in relazione al contesto e ricchezza di curriculum forse la scelta cadrebbe su Freddie Hubbard. Il suo aplomb di giocatore era mirabile, valgano per tutte le sue apparizioni a fianco di John Coltrane, in Out to ...

Rick Mandyck: The Return From Now
by Paul Rauch
It was a cold Tuesday evening the last week of December. 2016 was mercifully coming to a close, this evening, a final chorus of a long blues blown soulfully, and mournfully into the night. I sat at the bar at Seattle's storied jazz spot, Tula's, in eager anticipation of the evening's performance of a quartet led ...
