Coming of Age in the Jazz Loft Scene

Coming of Age in the Jazz Loft Scene

By Nabil Ayers about his uncle, Alan Braufman, living and playing jazz in the 1970s at 501 Canal Street, in New York, a building that the author says probably should have condemned, and which today is a fancy high rise.

Just listened to Braufman's "Valley of Search" for the first time last week.  It's pretty wonderful, wish there was a CD release of it.

Thanks for posting, Brad.  An enjoyable read and a reminder to purchase the recent LP reissue

Yeah, great read. FWIW I worked with Nabil and Alan on the reissue. It sounds really nice.

Glad you all liked it. Thought it was a great article. A little ironic, I suppose, that it’s now a high rise.
