L.A. Jazz Scene 2008: Alive and Swingin'
by Chuck Koton
The Los Angeles scene has often been referred to in patronizing terms by jazz lovers, musicians and writers.

Michael Dease: Clarity
by Dan McClenaghan
The eminent J.J. Johnson casts a big jazz shadow, as the trombone master was instrumental in bringing the big brass horn out of the harmonic background and into the ensemble forefront, beginning with his late 1940's work with Charlie Parker. Without him, we might never have seen the star of Curtis Fuller rise on the classic ...
