by Joe Dimino
We open one of the final episodes of 2025 by tipping our hat to a true jazz giant we recently lost--Los Angeles-based big band titan Gordon Goodwin. Taken from us by complications from cancer, he leaves behind a deep and dazzling legacy of swing, fire, and fearless creativity. As a tribute, we drop the needle on ...
Julius Gawlik, Conference Call & Camila Nebbia
by Maurice Hogue
German saxophonist Julius Gawlik has captured my attention whenever I've heard him play, particularly of late with Jim Black's The Schrimps.

Lisa Marie Simmons: Notespeak 12
by Chris May
Poetry & Jazz has a checkered history. When combined, the two art forms are not so much a marriage made in heaven as an obstacle course. The biggest danger is that one of them is verbal and the other is non-verbal and at its best transcends words. The second danger is that the better the poetry ...
