Mike Reed's People, Places & Things: Stories and Negotiations
by AAJ Italy Staff
L'idea è di quelle intriganti. Allestire una band -People, Places & Things, gran bel nome- con la quale recuperare e far riemergere dall'oblio la scena jazz della Chicago anni 1954-1960. Scena in lento ma inesorabile movimento, dominata ancora dall'infuocato hard bop ma con all'orizzonte i primi segnali delle trasformazioni che porteranno all'avvento dell'AACM. Per far ciò ...

Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet: Bien Bien!
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
