New Releases and Reissues Halfway Through July

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 […]

New Releases for the Second Week in July

The summer is speeding past like a speeding bullet. Nothing makes that slow down just a little bit more than a cool jazz or blues album or tune to add to your collection. I do not have a record player myself, but when I worked at the jazz radio station, we would sometimes […]

The New Releases for that Last Week in June

I can’t believe how fast this year has gone so far. I cannot believe it is now summer and we are almost in the month of July. Who the heck hit the Fast-Forward button on my life and why didn’t they bother to tell me about it? It will be the 4th […]

Another Tuesday and More New Jazz CDs for YOU!

Well, you have made it to another Tuesday. I am starting to feel like there has been a definite switch from Jazz to Blues around here lately. What can I say, for some reason the event and festival planners around here seem to have wanted to start off the season with Blues Festivals […]

The New Releases for the First Week in June

Well, I am a day late here. I have visions of people wandering around the jazz section of their particular music store of choice, lost, hopeless and helpless. I hope that didn’t happen to you, my faithful readers. With the death of Bo Diddley and the Chicago Blues Festival this week, my […]

The New Releases for the Last Week of May

Is it really the last week in the month of May, already? Wasn’t it just New Years Day like, yesterday? At this rate the holidays will be here in the blink of an eye. I will be celebrating my niece’s birthday before I know it. Jeez, who hit the Fast-Forward button?
Anyway, […]

Another New Week and New Releases

Ah, Tuesday, it’s such a lovely day. Seldom does Tuesday get much respect. People have football on Monday and they love to complain about it. They have Wednesday and the call it “hump day” and celebrate the fact that it is the middle of the week. On Thursday you have Must […]

This is, once again, from AllAboutJazz.com which is a great online magazine all about jazz (hence the name, I am gathering). […]
