by Jack Bowers

After listening closely to Captain Hubs, Illinois-bred, New York-based tenor saxophonist Todd Herbert's fourth album as leader of his own groups, one question immediately springs to mind: why is this man not scoring high in any polls?

George Coleman: George Coleman with Strings

Read "George Coleman with Strings" reviewed by Jack Kenny
