Kid Jazz?
I fail to comprehend how an organization that boasts the jazz savvy David Cezares can repeatedly stumble in its other references to jazz.

Take Five: Studio Vibes, Jazzin Mandolin, 2 Drums, 7 Psalms, and Desert Island Picks
The Star Tribune has a good idea — every Sunday you can read about recent arts happenings from two perspectives, dubbed Pick Six.
