New Releases and Reissues Halfway Through July

by balaspa on July 15th, 2008

Can you believe it’s July 15 already? I know, I keep harping on how fast things are flying this year, or every year, but it’s so true. It seems like just yesterday that everyone was complaining about how brutal the winter was and I was slipping and falling on the ice while trying to get into my car. Now, it’s brutally hot and there are severe thunderstorms every other day and everyone is complaining about the heat.

One thing always helps and that’s being able to tell you about the new releases and various re-issues that come out every week. I also simply cannot thank the people at AllAboutJazz.com enough for providing this information so I can tell you about it. They have some great articles and reviews on that site you may want to check out.
