A Night at Nick's This Week on Riverwalk Jazz
We invited Riverwalk Jazz listeners to share their memories of Nick's in the Village, and the phones began to ring off the hook.

Papa Bue: 80 at 80
by Chris Mosey
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was an age of duffle coats, beards, sandals and sunglasses. It was the age of Trad. It was how European youth discovered jazz. Britain had Chris Barber, Ken Colyer and, a little further down the line--by which time newspaper headlines were referring to ...

Wild Bill Davison: Wild Bill Davison: Pretty Wild & With Strings Attached
by Mike Neely
Wild Bill Davison did not always front a go-for-broke Dixieland band playing his cornet above a high-octane rhythm section. Arbors Records has reissued two albums featuring Davison with strings. Pretty Wild and With Strings Attached, originally recorded in 1956 and 1957, reveal a lyrical, reflective Davison playing ballads and slow to medium tempo standards. This other ...
