The songs “Nine Miles of Blu” and “Qbafrica” have
been trading spots on the top 25 jazz charts at allaboutjazz.com for the last
150 days. Tony Adamo’s “Nine Miles of Blu” is produced by legendary drummer,
Mike Clark, of Herbie Hancock and the Headhunters fame. “Nine Miles of Blu” has
not dropped out of the top ten in over 150 days and has gone #1 three different
times in three months. “Nine Miles of Blu” is currently at # 4 with Alfredo
Rodriguez’s song “Qbafrica,” produced by the legendary producer Quincy Jones, at
#3 on the top 25 jazz chart. Alfredo Rodriguez more than lives up to all the
hype on his Mack Avenue Records debut. He has the chops, musicianship and jazz
coolness to go all the way.
Soul jazz artist/songwriter, Tony Adamo, was
discovered by drummer Mike Clark. Clark has been called “the most sampled
drummer in hip hop.” His beats have been used on tracks by musicians NWA,
Grandmaster Flash, Britney Spears, Prince, and many others. Mike Clark describes
Adamo’s original music as “Oaktown Funk and New York throw down meets
vocal/hipspokenword. So ladies and gents, dig these two new artists. The groove
is here."

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!!

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.© 2013 Created by Jaijai Jackson.
