Gary Versace: Time and Again
by John Kelman
Gary Versace sure gets around. Since relocating to New York in 2002 following a ten-year professorship at the University of Oregon, he's become such an in-demand player that he's rarely at home--a situation bound to remain status quo well into 2006.

by Francis Lo Kee

by Derek Taylor
The latest offering from the seemingly bottomless Danmarks Radio Archive, Ladybird presents another air shot of Gordon's lengthy mid-1960s Café Montmarte stint. Dex's sizable cachet as an expatriate jazz icon prompted a nightly spooling of the tape machines. The resulting cache, so far doled out one set at a time, documents a particularly fertile time for ...
