I have been a longtime Kennedy Center subscriber, primarily for jazz and dance. Lots of tremendous shows there over the years. My last jazz performance there for me this season was Jason Moran & Friends in late April. Those friends were Wadada Leo Smith, Sylvie Courvoisier, Mary Halvorson, Nicole Mitchell, Terri Lyne Carrington, and Reggie Workman. Over the years, the jazz program was notorious for being the last to announce its schedule. Two months ago, I exchanged emails with Kevin gently asking if/when a subscription series might be announced. He suggested (...not too strongly) that something might get announced late August/early September. So prior to this most recent news, I would occasionally check the website. What “jazz” is currently scheduled? There are a few free performances on the Millenium Stage. For ticketed events, the Pan American Symphony Orchestra will present Tango of the Americas in October and one week later, the Glenn Miller Orchestra performs. Seriously. Check out their current suits. As of this writing, that is the jazz program at Kennedy Center.

I have good news for those of us in the US. According to the schedule, the television broadcasts of every remaining regular season game (except the Columbus Day Ottawa - Montreal game) will be available for free on the league's website cfl.ca. https://www.cfl.ca/2025-cfl-broadcast-schedule/ ***** more on Wpg-Ham https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/cfl-scores-today-winnipeg-blue-bombers-21-hamilton-tiger-cats-32-tiger-cats-dominate-friday-night-football-at-home/ ***** more on Ott-BC https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/cfl-scores-today-ottawa-redblacks-27-bc-lions-38-lions-end-three-game-skid-with-dominant-home-victory/ ***** more on Edm-Tor https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/cfl-scores-today-edmonton-elks-30-toronto-argonauts-31-argos-complete-comeback-victory-on-walk-off-field-goal/ ***** more on Mtl-Sask https://www.cfl.ca/2025/09/14/recap-montreal-48-saskatchewan-31/ https://3downnation.com/2025/09/14/montreal-alouettes-blow-past-the-riders-end-their-slide-six-other-thoughts/ https://pifflespodcast.com/blog/riders-get-buried-and-exhumed-by-philpot-alouettes-in-48-31-loss/ https://pifflespodcast.com/blog/riderville-roundup-september-14-2025/ https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/rough-performance-by-the-saskatchewan-roughriders-defense/ https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/cfl-scores-today-montreal-alouettes-48-saskatchewan-roughriders-31-tyson-philpot-explodes-for-238-yards-in-road-victory/

This afternoon, first disc:

Lowering the price to $25 per release. If you have another offer, send me a PM!

QUESTION: Am I just hallucinating that there was a disc of all Tina tunes?? (or nearly all Tina tunes) — recorded by somebody more recently? (Within the last 25 years, more likely the last dozen years.)

More Phil Woods:

Thanks.

Listening to this album again: Buster Williams plays on four of seven tracks on this album. Buster sounds so good that I wish he'd have played on the whole LP. This is one of those records that I have a clear preference for Side A over Side B. Also:

Sad news. R.I.P. But what a legacy!!! Thanks for sharing this story.

I'm a big fan of the Brazilian Octopus album, which has that international MPs fondue party sound that I can't resist. RIP.

A favorite B3er. So Cute So bad is one of her best recordings, IMO. RIP
