Nat Adderley
Born:
Nat Adderley may have spent a significant part of his career in the shadow of his better known older brother, the alto saxophonist Julian 'Cannonball' Adderley, but he was always a major contributor to their shared projects, and achieved a great deal in his own right after his brother's death in 1975. He was born Nathaniel Adderley, and took up trumpet as a teenager in 1946. He began playing in local bands in Florida, and made what became a career long switch to the smaller cornet in 1950. He did so against the prevailing tide. Cornet had been the horn of choice for New Orleans trumpet players in the early days of jazz, but had fallen out of fashion in favour of trumpet by the bop era
Kelly Blue
by C. Michael Bailey
The classic Wynton Kelly Trio comprised Kelly on piano, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb. Besides being Kelly's most stable trio, this rhythm section provided the underpinning for several important recordings and tours for Miles Davis in the late '50s and early '60s. These include Kind of Blue (Columbia Records, 1959) and Davis' 1960 European ...
The Unlikely Story of Cannonball Adderley's Rise to the Top
by Alan Bryson
For me, the most gripping music stories are the tales of “overnight sensations." In the jazz sphere, we have our share. There is the story of an eighteen-year-old Billie Holiday, discovered by producer John Hammond while she was a hostess in a Harlem club. There is the tale of a seventeen-year-old Ella Fitzgerald, whose triumphant debut ...
Why Is Japan a Jazz Paradise? Part 2—From Sake to Soul: Jazz Musicians and Their Love for Japan
by Atzko Kohashi
Part 1 | Part 2 In May 2025 Japan welcomed an estimated 3.693 million visitors, marking a surge in global fascination with the country--up 125% (more than double!) compared to a decade ago.

Ari Hoenig: Tea For Three
by Artur Moral
In the concise liner notes for this release, Ari Hoenig states that this is the first time he has kept the same lineup for two consecutive recordings. No shock there: From the album's opening bars, it is clear we are not just dealing with another trio, but with the convergence of three exceptional musical personalities whose ...

by Alberto Bazzurro
Disco come sempre di gran classe, questo, inciso il 16 settembre 1992 al Deer Head Inn di Delaware Water Gap, Pennsylvania, con Paul Motian in luogo del “canonico" Jack DeJohnette, ma con immutate le stimmate del già celeberrimo (nonché celebratissimo) standard trio di un Keith Jarrett all'epoca quarantasettenne e nel pieno della sua maturità tecnico-espressiva.

Keith Jarrett: The Old Country: More from the Deer Head Inn
by Jack Kenny
Keith Jarrett remarked as he listened to a tape of the session: “I think that you can hear on this tape, what jazz is all about." What did he mean? Was he reacting to criticisms of his long-form improvisations? Was it because he was in a small venue that prioritized jazz? Of course, you ...
