John Geggie: Unexpected Conversations
by John Kelman
Most cities have them: musicians who act like a lightning rod, focusing and driving their jazz scenes.

Miles Davis: Unlimited Miles
by Bill King

One to never step aside and let critics dissuade or impede his aspirations, he constantly retooled his band with the ...
