by Budd Kopman
Urdimbres Y Maranas (literally, fabric and tangles) is the second release by the Colombian pianist Ricardo Gallo and his quartet, the first being Los Cerros Testigos (Chonta, 2006).

Libby York: Here With You
by Suzanne Lorge
Libby York has the rich, rounded kind of voice that evokes another time--a time when it was Rosemary (not George) and there were only two kinds of martini (gin or vodka).
