Big Band Legend WALT STUART
As an arranger Walt Stuart was a legend. His recent death was sad but not the end of his incredible life and work. We just comitted to take all of his Big Band Arrangements, over 700, and make them available at www.waltstuart.com.
I want to ask everyone that ever played one of his arrangements, worked with him or met him to submit anything you experienced or know about Walt Stuart and his carrer. We would love to add your stories to his webpage.
His music will be with us forever.

One of the greatest Jazz/Blues singers today, Barbara Morrison will be at The Hollywood Studio Bar & Grill starting December 5th in Hollywood, CA. She will be celebrating 35 Years in the Business.... and is the best to represent Jazz/Blues vocals. Her musicians are always the best energized picked to stir an audience.
Every Thursday night there is a Jazz Vocalist Showcase at HSB&G in support of novice or well seasoned singers of Jazz. Musical Dir. Serge Kasimoff (p), Tony Dumas (b), Fritz Wise (d), (Alternate piano Karen Hernandez). All singers welcomed. www.myspace.com/hollywoodstudiojazz

To purchase The Armenian Jazz Band's-"MASISAMBA" album in the form of MP3 Digital Downloads (8 tracks) please click on the link below.
Individual MP3 Digital Download Tracks can be purchased for $.99 each and full length MP3 Digital Download Albums are also available for purchase.
The Jazz Network is exactly what the title suggests, a place where you get to mix and mingle with those who have not only an appreciation for Jazz but a forum to hear new up and coming artists as well. I've hooked up with so many of my old friends that I've lost contact with over the years here and it's been a great place to meet folk, appreciate good music and Musicianship. What an incredible idea!!

Sarah Vaughan: A New Box Set Revels In Glorious Imperfections
Divine: The Jazz Albums, 1954-1958 packs four CDs with Vaughan's music, recorded live or in the studio with bands big and small. Two live albums from Chicago nightclubs are standouts, partly when a performance threatens to slide off the rails.Rudresh Mahanthappa On Piano Jazz
Mahanthappa brings an explosive blend of jazz and South Indian classical music to the studio.Grady Tate On Piano Jazz
Grady Tate began his jazz career as a much-celebrated drummer, backing such icons as Wes Montgomery, Ella Fitzgerald, and Quincy Jones. Tate has since traded in his skins for a microphone at center stage, where he delivers smooth and soulful baritone vocals. With pianist John di Martino, Tate sings "Everybody Loves My Baby" and "Where Do You Start."Woody Herman At 100: 'A Blues Player From His Heart'
He was a soulful reedman, an amazing talent scout for decades and a bandleader of one of the country's most popular acts. Born in 1913, Herman led "Thundering Herds" that were both big draws and well-respected by the likes of Igor Stravinsky. Here are five recordings which still sound fresh today.Edmar Castañeda And Friends On JazzSet
Hear passionate improvisation across borders on Colombian harp, Argentinian bandoneón, Venezuelan cuatro and vibes from the U.S. In a set with Castañeda, his trio and special guests perform at the Americas Society in New York.© 2013 Created by Jaijai Jackson.
