Deep Passion: Menno Daams - David Lukacs and Friends
It's been a wonderful day for swinging jazz—tender and hot—because I found these four performances on YouTube. The peerless (and under-heralded) trumpeter, arranger, composer Menno Daams has started his own YouTube channel ("menno779") and its videos include these four delightful performances by the “Daams-Lukacs Orchestra" of jazz classics—homages to Bix, to Louis, and Duke—that are evocations ...
Now Hear This: Hal Smith on Zutty Singleton
Zutty Singleton: Face Drives the Train A friend once remarked that playing in a band with Zutty Singleton “was like trying to stay ahead of a freight train that was bearing down on you." Indeed, when Singleton was inspired, the pulse of his drumming took on the power of a highballing freight! One of the best ...

A Tapestry for (from) Bill Dixon
When I mentioned to friends that I would be attending the memorial service for Bill Dixon at St. Mark's Church in the Bowery the last weekend in July, as with any situation where one mentions “death" and “funerals," the response was unequivocally apologetic. Those same people were probably surprised when I said it was something I ...
Interview: Steve Knopper of Rolling Stone and Appetite for Self-Destruction (PT. 4)
Read Part 1, Part 2, & Part 3 Kyle Bylin: In a desperate attempt to preserve existing cultural and social norms or potential damage to the current social institution, the traditional record industry has gone to war with everything from the phonograph to player pianos to home-taping, claiming that these new technologies would effectively kill of ...
My Weekend with Elvis
Last week over lunch, my editor at the Wall Street Journal asked me to travel to Memphis for the weekend to cover Elvis Week. I've long wanted to attend the event marking the anniversary of the rocker's passing. I was never a big Elvis fan beyond the 30 # 1 Hits CD. I had always assumed ...
