Casting her musical net far and wide
Singer Halie Loren covered the jazz and popular music waterfront—-on the waterfront—-in a Sunday, May 15, matinee concert at Selby Gardens' Historic Spanish Pojnt campus in Osprey FL. She took the afternoon's music in some surprising directions, putting all sorts of music in a jazz context, delivered with a clear voice and deep understanding of the ...
Eddie Bert: Musician Of The Year
Today is Eddie Bert's centenary. The trombonist was born May 16, 1922 and died in 2012. Eddie was an extraordinary musician, a solid swinger and a great guy. And if we're looking at East Coast and West Coast doppelgängers, then Eddie can be compared with Frank Rosolino in Los Angeles for powerful and hungry improvisational lines, ...

Backgrounder: Bill Evans in Rio, 1979
Bill Evans recorded a studio duet album only once—The Ivory Hunters (1959), when he and Bob Brookmeyer both played pianos. He also recorded multiple piano overdubs for Conversations With Myself (1963) and Further Conversations With Myself (1967). And then there was From Left to Right, on which he played two different keyboards—the piano and the Fender ...
Backgrounder: Bossa Nova Modern Quartet
By now I'm sure you've guessed that I have a sizable digital collection of rare Brazilian bossa nova albums from the early 1960s, when the new genre was at its peak. Collecting that period is one of my many obsessions. If I were to blindfold you and lead you into a used record store, where I ...
Sal Mosca and the Larry Bluth Trio
Back in 2020, bassist and long-time e-pal Don Messina emailed me about a couple of tapes in his possession that hadn't been released. One was by the Larry Bluth Trio from 2001. The other was a collection of solo recordings by Sal Mosca in 1970 and 1997. My ears went up upon hearing about both tapes. ...
Makoto Ozone: Back on the road, with love
When Japanese pianist Makoto Ozone last visited New York City, a not-so-funny thing happened. He was in the Big Apple in January 2020, planning to visit friends in advance of his next scheduled trip, an April 2020 appearance with his trio at Dizzy's Club. “I was supposed to be there only for a few days, but ...
Levity accompanies vintage jazz mastery
Trombonist Herb Bruce and his Herbicide Jazz Band closed the Charlotte County Jazz Society's 2021-22 concert season on Monday, April 11 in Punta Gorda FL with a wide-ranging trip into the world of classic jazz. It featured a stage full of all-star players, accompanied between songs by the leader's self-deprecating humor. This was Herbicide's third visit ...
Herb Geller: Gypsy, 1959
Of all the musicals that were hits on Broadway, songs from Gypsy were among the most covered by top jazz musicians. I'm sure West Side Story, My Fair Lady and South Pacific were up there, too, but they weren't quite as naturally jazzy as Gypsy. That's because Styne came up in the jazz age as a ...
The sheer joy of swinging jazz
You can hear it in the music, and you can see it in the faces. Jazz at its best touches the audience, and is celebrated deeply in the musical communion among its makers. No matter the age gap, or the almost immeasurable decades of experience by most participants. Such was the case on Sunday, April 11 ...
