The Unlikely Story of Cannonball Adderley's Rise to the Top

Read "The Unlikely Story of Cannonball Adderley's Rise to the Top" reviewed by Alan Bryson


For me, the most gripping music stories are the tales of “overnight sensations." In the jazz sphere, we have our share. There is the story of an eighteen-year-old Billie Holiday, discovered by producer John Hammond while she was a hostess in a Harlem club.

Walter van de Leur: Jazz & Death, Part 1—A Closer Walk With Thee

Read "Walter van de Leur: Jazz & Death, Part 1—A Closer Walk With Thee" reviewed by Ian Patterson


Part 1 | Part 2 What is jazz? Beacon of the oppressed; music of New Orleans bordellos; popular dance music; revolutionary music; high-art music with an established cannon; progressive music that absorbs and grows; hermetic traditional music...
