Charles Gayle: Touchin' On Trane
by Francis Lo Kee
A long time ago, there was an advertising line: “The Rolling Stones are not just a band; they are a way of life." That ad man was of course tapping into the old adage of jazz: if you don't live it, it won't come through your music. In the '90s, The New Thing of the '60s ...

by Andrew Velez

Cedar Walton: Seasoned Wood
by Andrew Velez
Seasoned is an apt term for Cedar Walton who, at 72, continues to dazzle, refresh and satisfy with his keyboard artistry.
