Glenn Zottola: Miles Davis Remembered
by Nicholas F. Mondello
A young musician's mind can be so very impressionable, so capable and available to lock onto a recording, a phrase or texture and hold it. The effect is almost nuclear--one note, perfectly placed by the performer and into a young listener's ear, can set into play a chain of music-driven events that can spawn professional careers, ...

Charlie Rouse: Bossa Nova Bacchanal – 1962
by Marc Davis
What a happy record! And what a delightful change from the usual 1960s Blue Note formula. You know the drill. In the 1960s, Blue Note was the go-to label for two kinds of jazz: hard bop and soul-jazz. But Blue Note was never the reigning bossa nova label. When the Brazilian phenomenon swept the ...

And in recent years, the chanson tradition has been kept alive by younger vocalists such as ...
