by Larry Koenigsberg
When Norman Granz produced his first Jazz At The Philharmonic (JATP) concert at Los Angeles’ Philharmonic Hall in July 1944, he had already been promoting jam sessions in Los Angeles for two years, with such players as Nat “King” Cole, tenorist Lester Young, trumpeter Harry “Sweets” Edison, among others.

Various Artists: Jazz For The Quiet Times
by Jim Santella
Produced by Adam Dorn, this collection of slow heartfelt instrumental standard reissues featuring saxophone, organ & guitar, vibraphone, mellow trumpet, or a combination of those, is – quite simply – “music to relax to."

Various Artists: Legends of Acid Jazz: Hammond Heroes
by Douglas Payne
Legends of Acid Jazz-Hammond Heroes offers few advantages more than a gathering of solid soul-jazz tunes. It is, however, a decent (if not essential) collection of “Hammond heroes." But nearly every track here actually pre-dates what has come to be considered “acid jazz." If Prestige were to tap the Hammond heroes of its acid jazz period, ...
Various Artists: Kickin' Some Brass
by Joel Roberts
Brass bands were around before jazz was born. And while they've mostly disappeared from the American musical landscape, in New Orleans, where it all began, they've never gone away. Brass bands remain a part of life in the Big Easy, where they still perform in public events like funerals, parades, and Mardi Gras. Over the past ...
