Bohemian Caverns Celebrates 85 Years of Historic Jazz
by Franz A. Matzner
Marking its 85th anniversary as a jazz venue, 2011 was a remarkable year for Washington, DC's Bohemian Caverns, solidifying its renewed reputation as DC's premier jazz club and a venue of national significance. The path to this point, however, was neither easy nor guaranteed. The smoky clubs, dark corner joints, impromptu lofts, theaters, ...
Warren Wolf: The Wizard of Vibes
by R.J. DeLuke
Warren Wolf has made his name by playing the vibes, which he does with aplomb. He's as much a virtuoso on the instrument as anyone, even including his jazz elders. That may be, in part, because he was influenced by the sound of Milt Jackson and studied with one of the best in Dave Samuels, while ...
McCoy Tyner: McCoy Tyner: Extensions
by Chris May
Languishing off-catalogue for many years, McCoy Tyner's Extensions may be the pianist's most unjustly neglected album.

The album has one ...

Miles Davis Quintet: Live in Europe 1967 - The Bootleg Series Volume 1
by Kevin Davis
Miles Davis Quintet Live in Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Volume 1 Legacy Recordings 2011 The most--perhaps only--frustrating thing about this first installment in what trumpeter Miles Davis completists can only hope ends up being an exhaustive series of archival releases, is the 44 years it took Columbia/Legacy to release ...
Miles Davis Quintet: Live in Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Volume 1
by Chris M. Slawecki
Miles Davis Quintet: Live in Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Volume 1 compiles an enormous amount of simply incredible music: three CDs and one DVD spanning five European performances that the trumpeter recorded in late 1967 with Wayne Shorter (saxophone), Herbie Hancock (piano), Ron Carter (bass) and Tony Williams (drums)--what was known, even then, as Davis' ...
