Rock Legend Steve Miller to Teach at USC Thornton School of Music
Los Angeles, CA — Some people call him the Space Cowboy. Some call him the Gangster of Love. But when Steve Miller, one of rock music's all-time greats, joins the University of Southern California faculty this fall, he will have to get used another moniker: professor. During the 2010-2011 school year, Miller will teach at the ...
Various Artists: Jimmy Dawkins Presents the Leric Records Story
by Nic Jones
The term “stalwart" wasn't invented for Jimmy Dawkins, but as far as the Chicago blues scene is concerned that's just what he is. His stinging, succinct guitar has graced too many sessions to mention, while back in the 1980s he owned the label that's compiled on this title. Now the 1980s wasn't a ...

B. B. King Buell Theater Denver, CO April 19, 2010 B. B. King is the last of the authentic Delta bluesmen. That group includes legends like Robert Johnson, Charley Patton, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf. King is the real deal. He was born in the Delta ...
Mike Reed: The Drum Thing
by Gordon Marshall
There is not a name yet for what Mike Reed does on drums. Elvin Jones created polyrhythmics; Rashied Ali, multi-directionalism. Reed is delivering something related but distinct. It has as much to do with tonal complexity as with keeping the beat, but the complexity goes beyond that, into a recombination of the many drumming styles of ...
Tom Harrell: Roman Nights
by Robert Dugan
Since signing with the HighNote label in 2006, Tom Harrell has released the most significant CDs in his three decades-plus of recording. It's no coincidence that, for this same period, he has been leading a true dream band of younger players. His previous output for RCA was of the highest quality, particularly Paradise (2001), a unique ...
Zora Young: The French Connection
by Nic Jones
In Zora Young's case the “connection" isn't superficial, and her twenty plus tours of France prove it. Bobby Dirninger is the principal instrumentalist on this album and he's made the journey (or should that be pilgrimage?) only the other way around. It's clear that his transatlantic trips haven't been wasted either, as he provides Young with ...
