Mike LeDonne: Where There’s Smoke
by Bob Kenselaar

Marvin Stamm on Uncle Albert
Jazz fans are quicker than most to slap around other forms of music. Some fans are convinced that rock destroyed jazz (not so) while others insist that jazz sold out for commercial reasons (not so, either). New music comes with each generation, and that's how it played out in the mid-1950s and into the '60s. [Photo ...
