Jim Hall's reputation may ...

America's Been Tough On Jazz

Read "America's Been Tough On Jazz" reviewed by Eric Pettine


In America, he's his own man—he's got to be—no corporation seeks him out or needs him. Her attitude and attire doesn't always “cut it" with the latest vogue. He doesn't really have a particular deadline or agenda to meet. She's “got her ax down" and she's ready to carve out her own market share. He's got ...
