Duke Ellington: The Jaywalker

Read "The Jaywalker" reviewed by Norman Weinstein

by Norman Weinstein

The Jaywalker collects bits and pieces from the vaults of Ellington recordings the Master made for himself during 1966-1967.

by C. Michael Bailey

The Danish Gypsy Soul of Svend Asmussen... Svend Asmussen is an 86-year-old Dane who has been sawing on his fiddle since the mid-1930s. Listening to Still Fiddling one would never know Asmussen was 86, but one would surmise he has 60 plus years of experience doing what he does. Asmussen has played and recorded with the ...
