Rock vs. jazz

For just the second time in 50 years, the top award at the Grammys went to a jazz album. Do the two genres have anything to say to each other?

    Uri Caine last Saturday night

    Just came upon this article and recognized much of my own development and taste. It was a delight to read such a well articulated cruise on a subject(s) that I dearly love.

    I only hope that Gary Kamiya caught up with Uri Caine at Herbst this last weekend. It sent me soaring off with much of that drama in jazz that obviously gets him (and me and my wife) off.

    Thanks for the article.
