Dec. 8: The weekend section had my interview with Philly violinist John Blake, Jr., a vet of both Grover Washington's and McCoy Tyner's bands. Also, a Pick for Spaceship on the Highway, the quartet featuring Fred Anderson, Henry Grimes, Marshall Allen, and Avreeayl Ra; and listings for Pat Martino, Freddy Cole, Vadim Neselovskyi, and the Drake Jazz project.
Dec. 11: A feature on "A Camden Christmas Carol", an intriguing new slant on the Dickens chestnut, updating the original's Victorian Camdentown to modern-day Camden, being produced at the Rutgers-Camden Center for the Arts.
Dec. 15: A story on Skirl Records, the new brooklyn-based label started by Chris Speed. Also, a Pick for Jamaaladeen Tacuma's show "Coltrane's Configurations" at Zanzibar Blue, and listings for Eddie Gomez & Mark Kramer and Bobby Zankel.
