Tommy Castro coming to Moondog's

First, we here at BlueNotes World Headquarters hope you all had a happy Turkey Day -- at least happier than the turkeys had it. I myself enjoyed a nice, tender steak. But at least, among many other things, we have the blues to be thankful for. And, of course, welcome to Black Friday. If you want to shop, buy someone a blues CD. The blues needs a stimulus, too. You can kick off the holiday season with...

Jazz Mash Swing Bash

- What-ho, Maniacs! The tuxedoes and evening gowns are back from the cleaners, the martinis are mixed, and our soirée is ready to begin. Why simply everyone will be here. I'm sure it will be the gayest event of the year! - Excuse me, sir... - What is it, Jeeves? - I'm afraid the orchestra won't be able to make it. Their motor-car ran into a tree. - Dash it all! Whatever will we do without music?!...

Devil's Dream

I'll be reading throughout the Thanksgiving break. Have to finish Pops: A Life of Louis Armstrong and Devil's Dream . Reviewing both for Belles Lettres . So next year I'll be published in a porn magazine, Unzipped , and a literary magazine. Strange and kooky.

Jake Shimabukuro - Mind-Blowing Ukulele Virtuoso

You really need to play this video. I think it is safe to say that what Louis Armstrong did for the trumpet, Earl Scruggs for the banjo, and Les Paul for the electric guitar, the brilliant young Hawaiian Jake Shimabukuro is doing for the ukulele. Thanks to my good friend Louise, I had the chance to hear Jake play to a sold-out auditorium in LA this weekend. Otherwise, I would still be living

Back to Wisconsin

Louis Armstrong International must be trying to prep me for a return to the cold. The air here in the terminal is freezing! I'm very excited to be heading home for Thanksgiving this year - the first time I've been able to swing it in my law school career. Although I'll be working for much of the week, it will be a welcome change of scenery. I'm very much in need of a break.

New biography looks lovingly at Louis Armstrong

This is a little off our usual topics, I guess, but not by much. Great blues and jazz have lived under the same roof for decades, sharing a toothbrush and an attitude about expressing human emotion with music. I was reminded of the shared history of all that music when I read a New York Times article earlier today about a new biography of one of the most important musicians of the 20th century --...
