Just a reminder to get your VCR's ready, 'cuz "Jazz" is gonna be everywhere for the next 3 weeks. The Ken Burns PBS documentary airs Monday, Jan 8, and runs 3 days a week, 16 hours total.
It doesn't get into anything as cool as "On The Corner" or the kind of stuff we talk about on the list, but it should be pretty informative and get everyone up to speed on your Duke, Bird, Monk, Mingus, et.al, history.
Check your local listings.
(PS, I note that our local paper devoted more print space to jazz, the music, and Jazz, the tv show, this weekend that at any time I can remember.)
Jazz is dead! Long live jazz!
