Six years later, my awe has grown.
Six years later, I’m writing jazz previews and an occasional article for The Pitch and have just taken over editing Jam magazine. Both have cut into the time available to produce a blog post each week (and find time to sleep), and the blog has seen more weeks off than it used to. I expect that to continue.
But I also expect this blog to continue. Because it remains a unique forum where I can be snarky and critical (can’t do that in Jam. I have to be nice in there) or lavish praise.
And it remains a place to post photos of the amazing musicians who I listen to with awe.
This week, let’s look back at some of the older photos, from 2009 and 2010. These are some of my personal favorites.
Thank you, musicians, for the music. You make being a jazz fan in Kansas City in 2015 a genuine delight.
