Just got informed that one of the most legendary European homes of jazz has shut down because of Covid-19. Jazzhus Montmartre in Copenhagen was a cosy jazz venue hosting legendary concerts by Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz and Chet Baker among others. Jazzhus goes back to 1959, now it is history - I´m dismayed! http://www.jazzhusmontmartre.dk/info-om-corona-virus.html

Age doesn´t make us wiser automatically - on the contrary.

Maria McKee´s solo debut is excellent!
