Oh well ... sorry about that!

Colbeck, not Colbert.

Good musicians of course, but can't say I love the CD. Wish there were a bass player present, and Crispell often leaves me antsy...

Kudos!

R.I.P.

Just saw that the Bad Plus is doing a farewell tour where they are exploring the music of Keith Jarrett. They have one Toronto date in early March up in North York. I don't think there any other Canadian dates, though there is a Montreal gig with their current line-up (not the special guests). I'm not sure I would have gone but then I heard they were adding Chris Potter and Craig Taborn to the mix, and I thought that would be worth checking out. This super group is playing Oakland, Los Angeles and a lot of European dates, but not as many US dates as I would have expected.

Really good.

Nice, next Tetragon and another Waldron-Lacy on Elemental.

I saw Lyle Talbot on stage in New Orleans, starring in There's a Girl in My Soup.

Wanted to hear some Joel Ross. So “The Parable of the Poet” Blue Note cd A new Joel Ross release is due next Friday. 1000×1000 398 KB

Last summer, I asked AI "how do I get my students to stop using you?" Unfortunately or not, there were some pretty good answers.
