Member Quotes About TGJN

Hi Tamm E!

I was just saying that you knocked this out of the park with TGJN. We have needed something like this for so long and I am telling my friends about this. I said that it is sort of like a myspace for jazz but it is actually so much more. This is real. The people here truly love jazz and we know people like that are not your average people.

I have felt for a long time that straight-ahead jazz has been slipping away from us. I have hope now that there will be a resurgence (or shall I say an insurgency:-) to bring this baby back full force!

You just knocked it out of the park. Thanks again.

xoxo,
Janie

Wagner's Overtures In Full-Spectrum Sound

China's Newest Export: Punk Rock

Remembering George Russell: Composer, Theorist, 'Ezz-Thetician'

Everyone could have Miles and Trane and Bill Evans. But Russell, the behind-the-scenes theorist caught in the middle of one of jazz's most fertile periods, and largely overlooked for that reason, became one of my heroes.
