Just arrived
Hi Jazz Network,
I'm not a musician, club owner or music producer. My connection to jazz is two-fold and pretty low-key: I love it and I host a weekly jazz program on WRFR-LP FM in Rockland, Maine. Your site caught my eye and my ear and here I am. Glad to have found you!

Would this type of thing happen to Kenny G?
I received an email this morning with this picture and article from a new family member Chancelor Howell. This is the state of jazz that we must change in dealing with promoters that make promises and don't keep them.…

More Lyric Poetry
Joni Mitchell’s Gift
Joni Mitchell sat down in your way
Distracting you from wispy bones
And brittle, cropped hair
Keeping you anchored to the path
The one you scatter unknowingly
With petals of colorful love
Sowing seeds of hope and promise
Which grow strong with the loyally devoted
For they are light and buoyant
Because of you they move
In rhythms and soaring tones
Recalling tunes so vividly…

memories and musings - more lyric poetry
RED
Picking blueberries alone in the woods
A sad and lonely hay ride
To the cold head stones of the quarry
A red bird sat on the window sill
Waiting for his soul to fly
Red hair, red blood, a red bird
And my red eyes
Planting forget-me-knots over his head
Seasons changed and time’s train
Left a clouds of sorrow in her path
A red bird sat on his gravestone
Waiting to say good-bye
Red hair, red blood, a red…

Out of This World
Shadowed nightspot
sister beaded and hooped
beards, afros
dashikis
On platform
the connoisseur of alto
and his entourage
conjure aural sorcery
Invitation:
to sojourn in darkness
resonance and color
Inside Indigo hued
rhythms of Blackness unbound
To journey with immortality
in Coltrane's mode
Glide on azure notes -
wings fashioned of… Continue

MIDNITE BUTTERFLY
At night your lips shine like red roses
Black night rides silver horse high on the sky
Deep river cools down summer heat and wild horses
Pink tulip invites midnite butterfly
Deep river cools down summer heat and wild horses
Black night rides his silver horse high on the sky
Sparks from under his hooves fall down in big doses
On lover's mysterious ways they cast a light…

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!!

Chris Potter Quartet On JazzSet
At the Village Vanguard, one flight down from the hubbub of New York City, in a tight space packed with people, we're about to embark on a musical odyssey by sea. Our captain is saxophonist Chris Potter, who's launching his Odyssey-inspired album The Sirens.Pat Metheny And John Zorn: A Vivid Sound World
The two artists are known opposites in the world of instrumental music. On Metheny's latest, the jazz guitarist wrings an unexpectedly visual listening experience from Zorn's knotty compositions.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."© 2013 Created by Jaijai Jackson.
