“We ain’t dead yet” – Chuck Perkins in New Orleans

Order the book here

Jazz on the Tube just released its first book with plans for many more.

Thanks to all our supporters who made this book and future book projects possible.

We started the series with a focus on New Orleans for three reasons:

1. Historically, it is one of the KEY birthplaces of American music – jazz, blues, R&B, funk, and more

2. Its music tradition is very deep and very much alive to a degree that even many jazz musicians don’t fully appreciate

3. Musicians were the heroes who led the heroic effort to rebuild the city after its catastrophic flood in 2005. The greatest story never told – until now.

Please get it, please review it on Amazon, and please spread the word.

Thanks!

Great news Jazz on the Tube News

Summary

1. The first Jazz on the Tube book is coming out soon (March). It’s about New Orleans. If all goes well this will be the first in a long series of books on specific jazz scenes in the US and around the world.

2. I’m working on a reel that compiles great advice on how to learn and practice music featuring comments from Charlie Parker, George Benson, Pat Metheny, Phil Woods, Barry Harris, and some lesser-known, but truly inspired music educators. This is for all the young people who are learning the music and all the educators who are helping show them the way.

3. And available right now <drum roll please>, the new and improved – and 100% ad-free – ThirtiesJazz.com

Thanks to all our supporters. You literally make all these things happen.
